The cottage was perfect. We got to enjoy the beach directly on the property (though rocky...was very beautiful). It was close enough to the town ans attractions we wanted to do. We really enjoyed our stay, would recommend it :)

Scuba Diving Stay

A group of us scuba divers were here for the weekend. Close to Tobermory and it had everything we needed. The views are amazing and communications with the owners was very prompt. An excellent stay.

The place is quite nice, a comfortable house with minor, unimportant details, but there are many spiders around the property. There's no shortage of dirty people throwing trash from their cars on the road. Otherwise, it's a good place to spend some quality time and have fun with the family.

One week stay

We used the cottage has a home base to explore all that Tobermory had to offer. It’s a great location to all the main attractions of the area( 15mins into town) Communication with the owner was always quick and we didn’t have any issues during our rental. Loved the advice of water shoes as it is all rock into the water. It’s a beautiful area and the cottage gives you a very private piece of the beauty to enjoy. We loved that the property is all trees so you never really see anyone else from neighboring cottages unless you are out on the water.

Nice place, good amenities, reasonably priced

Nice rental overall. Right on the Lake Huron shoreline. More than enough Adirondack chairs to sit down right by the water. Well appointed: coffee maker, microwave, full complement of silverware, tableware, etc. Three comfortable bedrooms. Not the cleanest rental out there, but not bad, and the bathroom is kind of cramped. The big quirk is that you need to bring your own towels and linens (I used a sleeping bag).
