The views from this cottage are so beautiful. The cottage itself is cozy, clean and well stocked. My family and I enjoyed our stay here and made great memories. Only minor issues we encountered here was that the wifi was quite slow, so if you were to watch anything on youtube or Netflix it kept lagging and freezing. Other than that, everything was great and we really had fun. Thank you to the great hosts.

We had a wonderful time at the Douglas Family property. The house was spacious and well stocked (from the kitchen to the games to the towels and seating available inside and out). The access to your own beach is outstanding and although the neighbors are all close, they were very friendly and welcoming. We had a rainy day, but it was so much fun doing puzzles and board games. Then we had a glorious weather day and went to Point Pelee in the morning, swam at our own beach all afternoon, and had a campfire in the evening. It was exactly what we were looking for over a long weekend. There are some nice upgrades with new windows, AC, and fans in every room. The beds were comfortable (even if some are classically squeaky cottage beds) and we had easy access to Wheatley for some last minute items. We really appreciated the separate drink fridge and plenty of space in the main fridge/freezer for our own food. Thank you! As our kids said in the guest book - we will be back! :)

Carl and Beverly, first of all we would like to thank you for everything. Your place is a piece of heaven. All the items that we needed for were available at your place. One of the most fascinating part about your property is a direct access to the beach. Overall, we had a very beautiful and memorable moments at your place. Regards,Mokshya

We had an amazing couple nights stay here with some family and friends. The main living space is nice and open so with 7 of us we found we had tons of space. The photos in the listing don’t quite do it justice; this place is absolutely beautiful.

My family and I recently stayed at this incredible cottage, and I can't say enough good things about it! The lakefront location is just stunning—waking up to those serene water views every morning was such a treat. The property is well-maintained and offers the perfect blend of natural beauty and comfort.
The cottage itself was cozy and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The kitchen was fully equipped, and the outdoor space was a dream—lots of room to lounge, barbecue, and enjoy the sunset. We spent our days on the lake, taking in the peaceful surroundings, and just soaking up the tranquility.
One of the highlights of our trip was visiting Point Pelee National Park, which is just a short drive away. The park is a must-see, with its beautiful trails and incredible bird-watching opportunities. It was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation.
Thank you so much to the owners for sharing your beautiful cottage with us. It was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We can't wait to come back!

Upon arrival, you could tell this was a much loved family cottage. We enjoy the open concept common area with cooling fans and many windows to view the lake. The beach was wonderful for beachcombing and relaxing. We all had a great time and are booked again for next year.

A visit to Point Pelee National Park is a must. There is so much to see and do. I am hoping to return for a week next year. Just a beautiful property in an amazing location.

Property was as advertised. Nice large beach as well as grassed area for activities. Although there were lots of beds/areas for sleeping the mattresses all need replacing. Two members of our party left early as they were unable to get a good night's sleep...felt like sleeping on a marshmallow.

The cottage is perfect for our family of 4 adults and 2 young children. We had a wonderful week indoors with family meals, board games, reading, conversation and a thunderstorm party as we watched a storm over the lake. Outdoors - we made sand structures on the beach, skipped stones, collected sea glass, played in big and small waves...and more. A lovely cottage inside and out. Peg and family.
