| What a great spot to stay. Michelle was so helpful throughout the entire booking process.
Basically a full kitchen is ready and waiting for you to use. Didn't have to bring anything.
The view was second to none. Can't begin to say enough about the sunsets that we were fortunate enough to see every night.
Perfect spot for swimming. Not great for young children as there is no beach infront of the cottage but a 2 min walk there is a local beach and it is lovely.
Had one issue while staying and Michelle delt with it right away.
Only reason I'm not giving an Excellent review is that the beds do squeak.

Owner response: Hello Beata, so happy you enjoyed your stay... the breathtaking sunsets keep people coming back. Regarding the bed, it's vintage and it does squeak...some find it charming lol! But I do agree with you that it's time to switch it out, if you are back in the 2023 season, you will find a new squeak-free bed ;0) | |

| The cottage is well kept and has everything you are gonna need. The place is actually much nicer in real than the pictures. The best part is the spectacular view, the living area has all glass windows so that you don't miss out on the view even from the inside. The sunsets are surreal. Dealing with Michelle is super smooth. I am already in the process of booking for the next month. Missed the view too much.

Owner response: Hi Mohini, thanks again for your multi-bookings last season. Your repeat business is the best review we could receive. I am biased, but I do concur that the sunsets are spectacular!!! All the best in 2023. | |

| This cottage was everything we could have wanted. It was cozy, tastefully decorated and looked even better than the pictures. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed to make our meals. We really enjoyed the fire pit and watching sunsets by the water. It was an enjoyable stay.

Owner response: Hello Liz, Thank you for your kind words, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay. You are right, the sunsets are definitely one of the highlights (and the pictures do not do it justice). Hope to see you again in the 2023 season. | |

| Spectacular views from this beautiful cottage!! Gorgeous spot with easy water access and so well equipped. The cottage was clean and spacious and the view from the deck, waterfront and sunroom can't be beat! Michelle is such a kind and wonderful hostess to deal with. We had a great time at this little piece of paradise and we can't wait to go back!!

| COVID has brought a great many changes to our lives but restrictions on travel gave us an opportunity to explore parts of Ontario we hadn't previously visited. This waterfront cottage was the perfect spot for a relaxing week. The cottage had everything we needed, and a spectacular view of sunsets on the Bay. Just a short drive from Owen Sound, It was a great location for exploring the numerous waterfalls in the area, and hiking trails. Michelle is an excellent host.
