Nature Oasis: Waterfront, pet friendly, amenities galore

Welcome to Ironwood Cottages! Enjoy a peaceful, unique stay at our spacious home sitting on Cedar Creek canal and Conservation Area. Right on the water, you can watch birds & wildlife, or fish, canoe/kayak from the backyard. With a modern kitchen, open concept living area, and spacious bedrooms, you are minutes from the Epic Wine Country route, Cedar Beach, bike trails, and Kingsville's amazing food scene. An easy drive down the 401, or a quick drive from the border, this holiday gem provides amazing experiences for all.

Our waterfront cottage backs onto the Cedar Creek Canal and Conservation Area. Built in 2008, it is open and spacious with a large backyard patio with muskoka chairs for 6, a firepit, and steps down to the canal where you can canoe or kayak. Or, you can sit on the upper balcony with a morning coffee, or evening glass of wine and look out onto the Cedar Creek Conservation area to watch the wildlife and listen to the birds. Enjoy time playing games in our open area loft on our round game table and chairs - perfect for poker, other card games, board games, or our crokinole board. Our spacious kitchen with large stove, stocked with kitchen tools, and pots and pans, is perfect for the gourmet away from home, or large family meals in the attached dining area. Or sit by the fireplace in the main floor living room. And, there is a large garage to place your canoes, kayaks, or bikes.

An entire family-friendly open concept home with parking for four cars, plus garage to store your canoe, kayak, or bike. You have access to the whole property including spacious, private patio that overlooks the conservation area and Cedar Creek waterway, as well as access to the creek for canoes and kayaks. You are a 5-10 minute drive to a grocery story, or a short walk to the local bakery, beach, or marina.

I can easily be reach if you have any questions or concerns.

The cottage sits nestled between Cedar Creek canal and Lake Erie, on the creek side with a mix of residential and cottage owners who enjoy the waterfront views, nearby Cedar Beach, the local bakery and more.

You can jog, bike, or walk along the paths on the side of Heritage road. Walk to Cedar Beach, or launch your canoe or kayak in the Cedar Creek canal in the backyard. It's a quick 5 minute drive to the amenities in Kingsville, or another 5 minutes in the opposite direction to wine country.

For canoe and kayak enthusiasts, this is the perfect location to start off your paddling adventure through Cedar Creek Conservation area and paddle through the conservation area, or all the way out to Lake Erie. You can also put bikes in the garage for safe and secure overnight storage if you’re planning on biking to a winery, or heading out on the local trails. For nature lovers and bird watches, you can watch many different species of birds and ducks fly and float by, as well as various creatures. And if you have a good eye, you can find the eagle’s nest in the conservation area by looking out from the second floor balcony.

1st Trip to Canada
The property was awesome. Exactly what we needed for 3 couples. The location was great, close to town and the winery's. The views from the patio where also outstanding, every morning we got to seat outside with our coffees and what all the birds, which included 2 bald eagles. I highly recommend booking this spot for you next couple retreat!

Our less than stellar review above is due to the following disappointments: The fireplace didn’t work and the glass front of it was filthy A deck on the second floor was so filthy as to be unusable Entrance to the house unsafe at night due to a front door light that didn’t work The bbq grill was filthy We had to contact the hosts to get Netflix to work The upstairs windows were filthy Kitchen ware was less than adequate Our overall impression was that this property which has many nice features has been neglected and in its present state is not worth the rent they charge. We would not lease this property again. It didn’t meet the expectations of the standards we expected from Vrbo. Thank you for this opportunity to share our experience.

Fabulous!
The house was very clean, comfortable, and the hosts were very welcoming and responsive. We spent a lot of time in the backyard, enjoying the amazing wildlife. So close to everything, beaches, tourist attractions, wineries. Couldn’t have asked for anything more!

The place was gorgeous. They really went all out on supplies, kitchen, dog; there's more, but I don't want to ruin the surprise. The view - I got up early just so I could watch the birds run and land on the water or dive for fish. I didn't know I was so into birds, nature at your doorstep. My dog had a great time too!

Quiet comfort
The property looked promising and turned out to be even better than expected. This full-size home is clean, quiet, well laid out and very comfortable. The beds are cozy, there are 3 washrooms with great showers and the kitchen is large and well-stocked. We were in town for a wedding, but I would love to return just to relax and get away for a few days.
