| An Unforgettable Stay
We're not even sure where to begin—our stay was truly exceptional. The home, beautifully tucked away in Port Franks, offered the perfect mix of privacy, peace, and joy. From the moment we arrived, we felt an overwhelming sense of comfort and contentment.
Every amenity was thoughtfully provided, and we were so grateful to have chosen your place. The labeled switches, the small but meaningful conveniences, and the attention to detail made everything effortless and idyllic. Outside, the charm continued—from the herb garden and inviting deck to the soft sand around the firepit. The solar lights that gently lit up the night and the colorful marbles and shells scattered through the stones added such a magical touch to both the front and backyard.
Your cottage was so warm and welcoming that we didn't feel the need to explore—we just wanted to stay in and soak it all in.
And let's talk about that Apricot Salsa—we literally fought over it! I also couldn't resist taking some of your hot peppers home. This was hands down one of the most memorable and heartwarming getaways we've ever had.
Thank you, Colleen and Rich Strong, for creating such a special space. We truly hope to return someday. God bless.

| My husband and I spent an enjoyable 2 weeks at Colleen and Rich's cottage. The accommodations were spacious, clean and had everything we needed. The surrounding area is beautiful, quiet and ideal for leisurely walks, and relaxation. It's a short drive to a private beach that certainly doesn't disappoint for young and old alike. There are attractions nearby for the adventurous. We would highly recommend this place and hope to return in the near future.

| We had the pleasure of staying at Colleen's cottage in early June to celebrate my parents' 50th anniversary, and it was the perfect setting for such a special occasion.
The cottage was spotless, well-maintained, and exactly as described. From booking to check-out, the entire process was seamless and stress-free.
Although there were only seven of us, the space was more than generous plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy.
We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

| Booked our girls getaway weekend with Colleen and it was awesome! She was a gem to deal with and communicated everything so clearly and efficiently. The house was perfect as we each had out own room and it was super spacious. Our favorite part was the open concept kitchen/living room. The kitchen was fully loaded with all the essentials which made things feel like we were all at home. The details everywhere were great and made our stay so relaxing! Unfortunately, we were not able to take advantage of the outdoors as it was too cold but hoping we can enjoy it next time!

| This spacious and beautiful cottage was just what we were looking for when searching for a location for our extended family to vacation together. Colleen was wonderful to communicate with- very responsive and helpful. We were excited to see how stocked the kitchen was and we appreciated having access to several baby/toddler items. Colleen has thought through everything in setting the cottage up- the outdoor shower was very useful with all of our sand play, there are helpful labels on everything and the back decks even have gates to keep children in one area. My children thoroughly enjoyed having access to sand and a firepit in the backyard. Had the weather been worse we would have taken more time to enjoy the indoor offerings, like Foosball and air hockey. We loved the close driving distance to multiple beaches and attractions. The cottage decor is stunning and Colleen has included many whimsical touches throughout. This cottage felt clean and well taken care of. We are grateful that it could be a part of our summer travel experience!
