We had a relaxing weekend away, and the property exceeded our expectations in most regards. Just a little work needed outside. Communication was impeccable and it is definitely a lovely place to go!
The cottage is cozy yet feels spacious for the size, the location is perfect and is super private. Both Leamington and Pelee are quite close and Hillman Marsh is basically right next door.We checked in 15-20 minutes early without letting the host know and the security alarm went off. Be sure to check in at the right time or let the host know before entering! Be prepared to fill out a rental agreement before check-in.Overall we really enjoyed the stay and would definitely consider returning in the future.
This is an awesome place to stay! Itâs clean comfortable and tastefully decorated. Right on the water, the sunrises are amazing. Communication with the host Maria was above and beyond. If you want a relaxing getaway, book this place!
Clean, superb location, quiet, view of the lake is spectacular. Host is quick to respond to any queries. This was our fourth visit in the last five years and we plan on returning.
This property was perfect for our family. Everything is as described. It is very modern and there is a lot of outdoor space to enjoy! Very clean and the host was always quick to respond.We would love to come back again.
Clean place with a great view of Lake Erie. Well equipped kitchen; bbq on a big deck. Quiet. Within 15 minutes of the entrance to Pelee National Park by car and 10-15 minutes to Leamington (for grocery stores, etc.). A 5 minute walk to Hillman Marsh Beach et a few minutes more for the conservation area.
We had a wonderful relaxing time. Mariaâs place is spotless and very comfortable. We were amazed at the moon and stars and the sunrise!
The water waves were soothing to the soul.
Thank you Maria!
Property was as described and perfect in every way, hope to stay again
VRBO email very difficult to navigate for someone not perfectly internet savvy. Expedia...take note you have senior customers that need straight forward easy access!!
If you are thinking of renting this location, DO NOT HESITATE!! The property is better than the owner's description and photos. We have rented this property three times in the past four years, and we will be renting again. Clean, clean, clean. The view of the lake is incredible and the area is very peaceful. Extremely good communication with the owner. I would give a six star rating if I could.
Overall the house was very nice and the same as the pictures.
The only reason Iâm not giving the rental 5/5 stars is because there were a couple of lights that didnât work and there were A LOT of cobwebs. As if the home hadnât been dusted in months. We had to clean in order to completely enjoy our stay.
We had a terrific week at the âCottage by the Shoreâ. It is a beautiful, bright, spacious and incredibly clean home. The cottage is well equipped and tastefully furnished. What stood out for us was how comfortable the beds and sofas were, so sleeping and relaxing at the cottage was a delight. We spent a lot of time relaxing on the large deck, reading and admiring the view, and enjoying many of our meals outdoors. Previous reviews mentioned the excessive amount of bugs and spiders on the deck. This was not our experience at all, other than the few bugs that one should expect being in a cottage by a lake! The cottage is private, the surrounding are quiet, and the garden area is beautifully maintained. One thing to mention is that the cottage is about a 20 minute drive to town so make sure you have all of your supplies and groceries so you donât have to keep âpopping outâ for stuff! Our host, Maria, was incredibly supportive and a pleasure to deal with. This is a very special place and we hope to return some time in the future.
We were blown away by the views, seclusion, and impressive patio and grounds at the cottage. We had a relaxing five days, the cottage was clean and lovely and had all the amenities youâd expect to find at your home. We ate every meal on the patio overlooking the lake and woke up early most mornings to enjoy the spectacular view of the sun rising over the lake. Looking forward to our next visit!
We are avid travellers and love nature and the outdoors. We have been to many parts of the world and understand how important it is to feel at home wherever you may be. We hope that you will be build lasting memories at our place as we do each time we visit.
We stumbled upon this property while going through Chatham-Kent on a drive through the Essex-Windsor region and instantly fell in love. The tranquility, the privacy, and the feeling of complete relaxation when we are on the property made the decision to purchase the property a quick one.
If you love to be enveloped by nature and you love privacy, this is the place to visit. Each and every time that we are at our Cottage by the Shore, I get a sense of peace. I love the sound of the water near me, the sway of the trees, the sound of the birds overhead or on the lake, and the smell of nature.
