Gorgeous views! Clean. Peaceful.
4.7
The cottage was the last one in the row and is surrounded by Lake Erie, enabling you to see the lake on three sides with a lovely, long deck on all three sides.
There are about a dozen large urns spaced along the decks with identical gorgeous palms and crimson flowers in each one. Gorgeous!
Security lights flashed off and on every 2 minutes, making it hard to sleep.
Some receptacles did not work.
Silverware drawer almost falls out when you open it.
There was no toaster.
There was only a Keurig coffee maker but no Keurig 'cups' were supplied until we phoned the manager. The person who delivered the cups did not know how to solve the security light problem, and any advice given on the phone did not work as the labelling on the fuse box was so faint you could not read it.
No one actually came to fix any of the problems but only offered advice that did not work.
The large bottom drawer in vanity in bathroom would not close and stuck out in the way.
The bathroom sink stopper did not work.
Because the bedrooms were small, they are not suitable for seniors as convenient access to the other side was about impossible.
There is a 10-12" step from the kitchen to the rest of the cottage and the dining area.
The comfy stuffed chairs were beautiful but if you reclined in them, to close them was almost impossible. There is no lever like Lazy-boys but you have to kick the front harder to close than any senior can.
There is a tiny beach opposite the cottage which we enjoyed.

When we first arrived we realized it was exactly like the pictures. Inside extremely neat and clean. We had an enjoyable vacation and met a few neighbours who told us about the area's history. All in all. 10/10

WOW!!! That’s the word my husband and I kept saying throughout our week stay at this AMAZING rental!1. Cabin: Absolutely charming & exactly what you see in the pics. However, no photo of the view will ever do the real thing justice…literally EVERY ANGLE is breathtaking. We saw birds, fish, turtles, sunsets & even lightning…as casual American birders, we got SEVEN lifers just hanging out on the beautiful deck!2. Accommodations: The living/dining/bathroom are wonderful (we didn’t use the kitchen much) The beds/rooms are small so we slept separately (we’re 6’ & 6’4” so it would have been hilarious to cram us into one) - however, the beds/linens were clean & comfy! 3. Area: It was AMAZING being the last house on the road - felt totally secluded, even when people came to launch kayaks on the other side of the street. Everything is about a 20-min drive, & we picked up food & went to Point Pelee often (we HIGHLY recommend Moonlight Grill & Lounge and Joey’s Seafood)4. Communication: Frank/Suzy are so friendly & promptly answered all our questions. We had an issue with a park pass & Suzy literally drove a new one out to us right then! Frank went above & beyond to accommodate our requests, which made our vacation even more special! 5. We recommend bringing: side tables, fans, & extension cords for bedrooms. Condiments (there’s salt/pepper only). Bug tent (didn’t use it, but bugs got worse thru the week, so glad we had it)Thanks! We’re already planning our next visit!

Breathtaking views, cute cottage with everything you need. Perfect little spot ☀️

The setting was beautiful! Water on three sides and picture windows to take full advantage. During the migration, great bird watching. Host was quickly responded when contacted.

Words cannot describe the beauty of this place. Exceptionally well decorated but not cluttered, in the best location imaginable. Right on the lake surrounded by water on three sides, birds, galore, extremely clean. Yes it is a bit small but that’s part of the point of it. If it were large, you wouldn’t get a few from every single room, nor would it be as special. This is the most exceptional place. Don’t hesitate to you will love every moment. Also, the owner is very responsive and generous.

Loved the location and it really delivered for the bird watcher. The bedding was below standard.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the spectacular views over Lake Erie. So close to the lake that you can imagine you’re on a boat! Beautiful new deck. The listing and photos are very accurate. Location is amazing, as it’s 15 minutes to Leamington for groceries and about the same to Point Pelee National Park. Buy your gas at Caldwell Gas (First Nations) on Mersea Rd 1! Far cheaper than anywhere else in the area! The only reason I could not give a full 5 stars is kitchen equipment is lacking and could easily be fixed. Some measuring cups and spoons, a whisk, some large bowls, aluminum foil, a cutting board a grater and a regular coffee maker would be helpful. There is a single cup Keurig machine that takes the plastic K-cups. We cooked and grilled a lot, so it depends on what you need. The internet was variable. Generally good in the morning, but slower in the evening. The property was clean with very nice finishings. I would highly recommend this property!

Really enjoyed my stay. The property is the last one on the road surrounded by Lake Erie to the east and a wetland to the west. The deck wraps around the house. Enjoyed both amazing sunrises and sunsets. Loved falling asleep to the sounds of crashing waves. The only knock were the flies and mosquitoes but that's part of being in nature. Note bring a sweater as it's always cooler by the lake

This spot is breath taking. Quiet and tranquil. Watching the sun rise with a coffee on the exspansive deck or sunset on the front porch. The cottage is perfectly appointed with everything you need. Perfect spot to unwind.
4.7
The birdlife was incredible and the views were spectacular! We spent most of our time just enjoying being there. A trip to Pt. Pelee was a nice place to visit ( we enjoyed the long boardwalk trail) although we didn’t see as many birds there as we did at the cottage!
4.7
From the moment I booked to the moment I arrived, with my best friend, my first VRBO experience as spectacular. Our host was the best and answered all my questions. The cottage is everything and more, Eagles, Egrets, Herons, Garnets, Sunsets, Sunrises, I'm totally coming back. My only comment would be to upgrade the utensils and kitchen pots & pans. Thank you so much!

Great and amazing outdoor space
Lovely cottage
Very tiny bedrooms but good living space nice to have two separate sitting areas indoors both with great water views
Felt there could have been more cooking supplies such as condiments and spices etc
Fabulous location Really great To have park pass super convenient to leamington also etc
Very quiet surrounded by nature at a dead end of road- feels remote but is actually very convenient to leamington, Wheatley, Kingsville, point pelee park et
4.7
This property is definitely a 5 star worth. Anything what is in the listing is there plus more. The view, birds and the outdoor porch gives you definitely things to see anytime of the day.
Close drive to the national and provincial parks.

This cottage was perfect for our stay with two teens. The 300 degree views of the water are simply spectacular- like nothing I’ve ever seen. We loved checking out the birds, the lake and exploring Point Pelee National Park. Also super drivable to other local gems like wineries and markets. We’ll definitely be back!
4.7
The cottage was cute and exactly as pictured. The views and deck were wonderful. Water views from all windows. The only downside is that you have to drive into Leamington (10-15min) for shopping

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage in a beautiful location. It had all the amenities we needed, and the two double rooms were perfect for the two of us.
4.7
Just as advertised... and nicer. Great location. The only downside were the midges... but that's to be expected at this time of year.
4.7
The location of this property was superb. Out one window we could watch the sun rise & out another the sun setting. The porch on three sides of the house had fantastic views of Lake Erie & the Hillman marsh conservation area. Lots of bird viewing from the porch! Would definitely like to stay here again!
4.7
Beautiful location, great views. Clean. Very convenient to Pt Pelee. Overall fine, but a few thing need addressing...
Lites need to be labeled because it was unclear which switches turned on which lites, inside and outside. Kitchen did not have any condiments other than salt and pepper. Hair Dryer was missing, although when we asked, owner said he would bring one. (not helpful when you need one 10pm.) Beds so so, bedrooms were tiny, no room to move around at all, no where to put suitcases. Tiny side table in bedrooms would be helpful. Big step between kitchen and dining room so if you are not careful you could break your neck. We also didn't like the fact that many bird watchers were driving and parking in front of the house all day because this location is good for bird watching.
4.7
Lovely location and cottage. Perfect for watching birds, water and sun/moon. Frank was excellent in communication and hospitality. Hope to return. Thank you!
4.7
Lovely little cottage with huge deck surrounding three sides. On the dead end of a roadway leading onto a narrow peninsula between Lake Erie & Hillman Marsh, water views on three sides, sunrises over Lake Erie, sunsets over Hillman Marsh. Two small bedrooms, each with a queen bed great for a couple or two. We'll be back!
4.7
20 minutes from the conveniences of Leamington and 20 minutes from Point Pelee park where we spent most of our time.
Very clean, updated cottage, with all the comforts of home. Good shower and full kitchen. The furniture and decor is updated and very well designed to the space. Beautiful new deck surrounds the property. But the biggest feature of this cottage is the location. Almost completely surrounded by the water of Lake Eerie, it appears more like you're on a boat than in a cottage. The moonlight on the water to the east was breathtaking and a sunset to the west over the water as well. When we entered we were met with a beautiful bright and breezy home with the sound of the surf all around us.
Super location.
4.7
The property has the best view in the area! Birds and waves as far as the eye can see! The deck is enormous! The inside is nicely decorated and cleanly with all the necessary amenities. Large 4K Tv was a nice touch on a windy night. Wifi is spotty in some areas and but the hardwire connection near the tv was fairly solid!
Overall a great place to stay!
4.7
Overall it’s a great cottage with a stunning view of the lake. We went to point pelee national park almost daily, the park is a short 12 min drive away.
4.7
Was a beautiful spot and beautiful cottage just hard to sit outside at night due to camera lights that attacked bugs . Wifi is not strong as well over all was great
4.7
Beautiful location with sun rising in the front and setting in the back. Took in both most days. Cottage had most things we need and was central to everything we wanted to do. We enjoyed Point Peele Park every day and it was wonderful, had some fantastic meals, and took home a variety of beers from Cured in town. Beds and Bathroom could use much attention for an overall 5/5 experience!

“Lakefront” View
Truly spectacular experience - redefines lakefront view

Very nice cottage, beautiful deck with great views of the lake. Lots of birds (and bird poop!) Very relaxing. Internet was slow or not working. Was told there would be a BBQ and then there wasn't one to use which was disappointing. Overall a great spot as you felt you were right on the water.
4.7
Fantastic property. Gorgeous views. Sunset over the marsh, sunrise over the lake. Brand new deck on 3 sides! Well-equipped kitchen. Easy access to Point Pelee and Hillman Marsh - we were there for birding migration and spent most of the time out and about ... would have loved more time to enjoy the space. Would be a gorgeous summer relaxation spot.
