We had a great week and the weather was perfect.Our host was very responsive to all our questions and gave good suggestions for access to the beach and places to eat and shop. Mosley St is busier than we expected and crossing the street to walk to the beach was challenging during certain times of the day. However once inside the cottage we couldn't hear any traffic. There was lots of parking and exiting onto Mosley wasn't a problem.The cottage is very well maintained and we enjoyed the open concept and accessibility for our elderly friend. Plus having 2 bathrooms was a bonus. Would definitely book again.

Not a friendly town but cute cottage

Our family spent a wonderful May long weekend together at the property. The host was accommodating by allowing us to bring our dogs as well, which is always nice to not leave them with someone or put them in a doggy daycare. The property is in partial renovation, so we were a bit surprised that it didn’t look exactly like the pictures on line, but it didn’t stop us from having a good time. I’m sure once done it will look amazing The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials and spacious enough for multiple people to be cooking or tidying at the same time. We spent a lot of time outside, and enjoyed the view backing onto the river. Our son was happy to be able to throw his fishing line off the dock, even though he didn’t catch anything, it kept him happy. Again, the host was very helpful and quick to respond if/when needed. We would stay here again in the future.

I stayed here in the wintertime with my family. The space was perfect for the 9 of us and overall we had a very nice stay. I would recommend it. As someone who used to run a short term rental for years, here are what I consider to be the pros and cons... Pros: - excellent communication with owner, very helpful - nicely decorated - hot tub - dog friendly with fenced backyard - layout of the kids room was really cool and fit all 5 of the kids in our family, and they loved it - very well stocked kitchen - lovely river view out the back - close to shops/restaurants, beach and Collingwood (Blue Mountain) - lots of other nice touches like board games, Bluetooth speaker, plenty of blankets, shampoo/conditioner/soap provided - backyard fire pit - high chair Cons: - located right on a busy main road (we were surprised that this wasn't mentioned in the listing, however you don't notice this once you get inside the cabin because the main view is out over the river in the back) - back room of cabin is still under construction and somewhat unfinished making some areas of the cottage quite cold in winter despite the fireplace (owner mentioned she will put a space heater in there for future) - cleaning fees are high, yet guests still must bring their own bedsheets and towels (plus in our case, the kitchen garbage was left full from the previous guests) - can't lock the bathroom doors But overall we had a great time and there was plenty of space for all of us to hang out comfortably. I bet it would also be fun in the summer being just a short walk to the beach.
