About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cottage to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beautiful, clean cottage, 4 min walk to the beach/playground. Many wineries!

View of the lake. Air conditioned & gas fireplace. Dining room seats 6 people. Washer and dryer. Master = queen bed. 2nd bedroom = double bed. 3rd bedroom bunks = double on bottom & twin top bunk. The charge per night includes 2 adults and up to 3 children under 12. Additional adults adds $20 per person for each night they stay. Gas BBQ, and a fire pit. Dine out front watching the boats go by. It's just a short walk for you and the kids to reach the playground, splash pad, beach and public restrooms. This is a smaller beach that boasts Volleyball nets (bring your own ball) and a handy snack bar near the pier. Just adults? Stay on the beach for dinner at The Wreck, over looking the pier or take a tour of one or more of the numerous wineries within minutes of the cottage. i.e. Paglione with their outdoor wood oven pizza's and gelato, or Viewpointe, named appropriately for an outstanding view of the lake. If you end up with a rainy day, take a 15 - 20 minute drive to Amhurstberg for some historic tours, or maybe check out scenic Kingsville for a little shopping and a selection of great restaurants. After enjoying the firepit you may want to relax on the front porch and listen to the lap of the waves. Pack light, we've thought of everything,

As always the cottage was perfect. This is my fifth time renting from Denise and this time we brought friends who also loved the cottage. We ate at a local winery and went to Point Pelee national park. Lovely memories and great place to relax.

Awesome get away

We came up for the eclipse and had a peaceful time in the cabin. It was great to let the kids walk down to the beach and playground while I sat on the couch and read. Great restaurants near the cabin. Would stay here again.

A Great Getaway Destination

This is a quaint, "clean" and hospitable cottage to enjoy a getaway in a quiet neighborhood with a Lake Erie view. A great choice rather than a hotel/ motel scene with abundant indoor and outdoor space. All amenities you need would need are there. Dinese is a great host. Try it out!

Wonderful cottage

The cottage is clean, updated, pretty, has everything you could need. The area is perfect for having my 4 year old grandchild stay with us, splash pad and great climbers, beach, ice cream shop and restaurant within walking and for me a coffee shop. Perfect!

Beautiful Weekend Getaway

The rental was very clean and well maintained. Perfect for our family of five! The owners had thought of everything to make it a pleasant stay. The closeness of the park and marina was a massive plus for our family.y son and husband caught many fish off.the pier. We also visited the restaurant right by the marina.. The view from the house was beautiful! We want to return in the warmer.months!! Thank you for the great communication that the owner had!!! 5 star!!

We love this clean bright cottage. My daughter and grandchild come with me for a four day “girl’s weekend”. This year we also went to the Pelee National park and Harrow Fair while we were there. My grandma child is now 5 and it’s our third year. There is a beach and splash pad and climber within a short walk. A cafe for the adults. And restaurant and ice cream near the park. The first two years we did not go anywhere as we had everything we needed. Adding day trips this year is just a bonus. The beds are comfy and we spend evenings watching movies. It’s the perfect cottage for us.
