Excellent location, comfortable place, nice owner respond fast

Everything was pleasant. Rooms were clean and bright, kitchen well equipped. There didn't seem to be any dishwasher pods but host dropped some off for us promptly when informed.

We had an amazing time!The place was immaculate and there were no surprises. The views of Lake Erie were spectacular and the kitchen was exceptionally well stocked. We will be staying here again.

The cottage pictures INSIDE are exactly as shown on the listing. The cottage itself is beautiful - magazine setting. However there are only blinds on some of the windows. The master bedroom has a wall of windows and door with no blinds, the upstairs second bath has a half moon window with no blind and the downstairs window is glass block with no blinds. Be prepared to be up with the sun. The owner could spend $100 and cover all windows to solve this problem. The second major issue is that the water is not two feet down from the yard as the owner described to me in a very lengthy conversation before I booked the property. I told him we were bringing a six year old and he assured me the water was fine and only a small two feet below the sea wall ladder. This was a blatant lie as the water is easily 6-8 feet down on a very difficult ladder. As a result we were never able to use the beach. Which is also a misrepresentation as the picture shown on the listing shows barely any rocks - there are full boulders and rocks so there is NO beach at all. When I spoke with Mike he assured me he had a six year old and a smaller child who swam in the water all the time. I asked about the undertow being Lake Erie and he said it wasn't bad at all, not like Port Stanley. However when we met him on Sunday at check-in he told me he would never let a child near that water without a life jacket and would never swim there. I was so shocked by this I didn't say a thing - I couldn't actually believe he had led us so astray. If he had been honest - because this was our main objective of the trip - we would have booked elsewhere. If you are looking for a beautiful cottage and no real access to water or beach - then this is a terrific place - but if you want a family vacation where the kids can walk out the door to the beach - look somewhere else. We cut our vacation short by two nights as a result of running out of things to do and were tired of travelling by car to other areas to use the water and the water toys we brought with us. I just don't understand why he was dishonest on the phone when we initially spoke to book the cottage. Very disappointed.
