This is a lovely open concept cottage with great view of the marina and lake through the large livingroom windows. Tastefully decorated, exceptionally clean, and everything looks fresh. The cottage is equipped with everything we needed, including Wifi, TVs, etc. Comfortable beds. (Note: the 2nd bedroom is the bunkie, which is quaint and comfortable) Good temperature control with A/C in the cottage and bunkie. Very responsive host (Karen) who quickly responded to messages. This property would be a challenge for those with mobility issues, because of the stairway access. Would recommend bringing a flash light to get to the bunkie at night.

A Quiet Dock-side lake cottage
This dock-side cottage offers a very peaceful and quiet retreat. This cottage is very nicely decorated and includes a fully equipped kitchen, gas BBQ, outdoor seating and eating areas along with a firepit and entertainment/wifi options in the home. The "bunkie" is a separate rustic cabin room with only a double bed in it, so one must manage two sets of stairs down a vine covered hillside to access the toilet inside the main cottage in the middle of the night-that process can be a challenging exercise in rainy weather. The luggage lift is a helpful option, but using it can be a tense experience as well. The outdoor shrubs and ground cover were overgrown, so that views to the lake were obstructed and the vines were beginning to grow over the steps and pathways around the cottage. But the general location of the cottage allowed us to explore the local area and we enjoyed our time here. The host was flexible, kind and timely with all communications.

Summer getaway
The cottage is great. Beautifully decorated on the inside with everything you need for that well deserved away time. Cozy and very comfortable. The outside is more rustic with a patio and little alcoves here and there. There is a stair climb to get to the cottage but there is a lift to take any belongings etc to the cottage which is located on the side of a hill. This offers a great view of the marina and lake. Very quiet and peaceful. We had a great time visiting vineyards, taking in the sites etc,.

The property was so serene and quiet and private-a real plus.The only thing that for us that we didn't know was that the bedroom was not a seperate room.There were so many bonus aspects though.There was a firepit,several seating options and a lift because it was on a hill making it super private.Also a great bbq and the cottage had all supplies and even tv options.Loved it.

A Great Retreat!!!
The Dwelling is truly a Dream, updated with the most modern features only found in Model Custom homes! The attention to detail and cleanliness is second to none! The communication between the owner and ourselves certainly instills confidence! Definitely would return and recommend to others!

Stunning and unique!
We enjoyed every moment at Karen's beautiful home! The split-level property was really unique with plenty of spaces for our 2-year old to climb and explore. And it was comfortable for the grandparents after the initial set of stairs to get to the top of the hill. Everything in the home was modernized and equipped to make our stay very comfortable. There is enough entertainment to keep ourselves occupied indoors (and on the covered porch outdoors) as it rained the entire first day we arrived. There are no real walls that separate the main bedroom from the living room sofa-bed (all open concept) so should the house need to be shared for sleeping, I'd recommend those who snore to stay up in the separate bunkie 🙉 (very comforable and cozy nonethless and with a/c) or bring along ear plugs! the.re was plenty of towels and bedding items, and the kitchen was stocked with utensils and basic pantry items (cooking oil, seasonings, etc.), including filtered Brita water. The mechanic lift to bring the coolers and luggage up was super helpful. The property is surrounded with foilage and it was a nice treat to see fireflies at night. Turkey Point is about 15 mins away, and Port Dover about 30 mins away so be sure to sample some Perch and Pickeral which is offered on just about every menu. Vineyards and farm shops selling local produce are all enroute to break up the drive from the city. Karen was easily reachable when we had questions. We would definitely love to stay here again!

Beautiful Place
I loved my stay here. The place was beautiful and very private. There is a number of stairs to get up the hill, but there’s a lift to help with luggage, and even a little resting bench every 10-12 stairs or so if you get tired. Also, this place comes with everything you need. Such a nice area! Would definitely stay again

Great Views!
Spent 3 nights at this great hilltop hideaway! Unique setup and nicely landscaped patio and fire pit area. Wasn’t 100% clear to us that the bed isn’t in a bedroom but wasn’t an issue for our family actually worked well to have the kids up there. Kitchen well equipped with dishes and cooking utensils. Living room gets very warm in the morning due to it being south facing but as long as you keep the blinds closed, ac and ceiling fans on it stays cool enough. Keypad lock on door was very sticky had issues getting it locked and unlocked. Very convenient to have washing machine on site. Nice to have satellite tv and extra hdmi connection (grandson brought his nintendo switch). Mechanical lift was a lifesaver as someone dealing with knee issues. The interior seems to be recently renovated and in great condition. Great place!

Nice and cozy property. Small but just enough for 2 people. Everything necessary for comfortable stay is provided. However, property a little far from beaches.

thank you, karen, for being a lovely host! karen answered every single one of my detailed/annoying questions (i like to know as much about the property as possible before i book). the home was super clean, it had everything you need. it’s up on a hill and so is very private, and has a ‘lift’ to carry your things up. it was a perfect stay, thank you again!
