This place was absolutely breathtaking! I’m so glad I booked this place. The place was really clean and was exactly the way it was described. We had a little trouble turning on the sauna , but I reached out to the host and they were very quick to send down the maintenance guy! I can’t wait to go back with my friends this time . The place was also super clean and the hosts had kept a lot of games for us to enjoy! It was truly a peaceful getaway. Must book!!

My husband and I wanted a peaceful, quiet weekend away and we got exactly that! Jennifer’s place was spotless, comfy, and just the right size. Its location is super convenient and only about 8 minutes from any food or stores, but still far enough out of the way that it wasn’t a busy street. The water is just steps away and despite it being quite windy, the view was stunning! We would love to come back when it’s warmer to enjoy using the fire pit and chairs out by the lake. Can’t recommend staying here enough!

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 91 reviewsLakeside Hydeaway Cottage on Lake Erie w/ Hot Tub
The views of water and private beach access were wonderful! The cottage is just as the pictures show and home as great appliances with everything labeled. It’s fully equipped for a long weekend stay. The hosts were also wonderfully accommodating and exceptionally responsive! The spiral stairs to the main bedroom upstairs are a charming feature, but might be a consideration for some as they were narrow and steep. Overall, a wonderful place to stay!

Another great stay! When the weather didnt co-operate we checked out the local wineries and had an amazing lunch at Coopers Hawk. Golfed at Kingsville Golf and Country Club that was just 5 minutes up the road. We had fun kayaking in the waves and campfires on the beach! Thanks again Jeff!

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 73 reviewsSouthern Exposure on Lake Erie
We had an amazing stay at Lee and Tina's cottage! From start to finish, they were friendly, welcoming, and incredibly responsive to our questions. The place is peaceful and charming—just what we needed for a relaxing retreat. We especially loved falling asleep to the soothing sound of the waves crashing on the beach. The rental also included a pass to a nearby national park. We spent some time exploring the area and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. Next time, I’ll be sure to book more days to explore all the nearby attractions. We highly recommend it! If you're looking for a tranquil, well-located spot with wonderful hosts, this is the perfect place to unwind.

My sister and I recently spent a weekend at Bella Vista. The cottage is perfectly situated on a peaceful street, and the space was ideal for relaxing, reading, cooking, and listening to the waves rolling in. Tony and Mary-Jo were very attentive and helpful. We would definitely book it again!
Cottage in Pelee Island
5 out of 5 average rating, 28 reviewsOnce Upon An Island - lakefront cottage rental
This was our third year to stay on Pelee. Courtney's place is so beautiful. Tastefully decorated. The kitchen was laid out nice to be user friendly, lots of cupboard space for preparing meals. The back deck and lake side deck were used often for coffee and evening sunsets. The house was very clean and organized. It had everything we needed. We didn't get to have a fire out back, it was too windy. A nice personal touch w a welcoming bottle of wine waiting for us. We learned a lot from the butterfly sanctuary on the island, very informative. The 1891 Stone House is a must go to! Great food and interesting history. I would definitely stay at Courtney's again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jeff's place. The home is in a beautiful location right on the lake. It is a very well equipped home with nice open spaces. This home very comfortably accommodated 3 couples and was very reasonably priced for the location and amenities. Thank you for our stay Jeff!
