A truly wonderful, comfortable and convenient place to stay during our visit to the area.
A magnificent location ... wonderful view of the lake with easy access to Point Pelee National Park and the wine route. The many items that were provided with the Bunker by the Bay made it much easier to plan, pack and travel. Definitely worth a return visit in the future :)

Nice getaway
Clean and tidy place, lovely view of the lake, we visited the nearby restaurant a few times just for the convenience of the five minute walk, the owner has utilised the space and give it a modern look that is very functional but cosy.....we will stay again but a wee bit longer next time

Excellent Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our getaway to this quaint destination overlooking the Lake Erie, Leamington Ontario that we managed to get away to. We enjoyed the peace and tranquility compared to the daily city noise in our current city. This location had all the comforts of home!

Break from the city
The property is well maintained, clean and close to Point Pelee National Park. Two people can comfortably utilized the living space. A family pass was included in the rental for the park and this gives you access to beaches, swimming, kayaking and biking.

Cozy cottage stay for two!
We visited Pelee for an early-season bird-watching trip and had a very positive experience staying at this property. The Bunker had everything we needed, including cooking utensils, hot cocoa, cleaning supplies, and extra blankets. Gabriella even kindly included a park pass for guests to use! The lake view was unbeatable, and we saw quite a few birds (and even a mink!) from the comfort of the cabin. Gabriella was pleasant, responsive, and easy to reach. The only (expected) downside was the cold. We had rainy and windy April weather all weekend with temperatures falling to near-zero overnight. The Bunker is not well-insulated against freezing weather, and while the heater kept out the worst of the cold, it did get chilly inside at times. Didn't end up being a problem during our stay since we were often bundled up for outdoor activities and the blankets/warm drinks that were provided helped the rest of the time, but it is something to plan for if you visit during early spring or late fall. I'm sure it's not an issue during the summer. Overall, definitely a five-star experience and a place I would love to return to!

3 Great Days by the Bay
We enjoyed a wonderful 3 days. Accommodation was beautifully appointed and equipped with everything you could imagine, There was a spectacular view of the bay especially at sunset. Gabriella was very accommodating and very accessible. We would not hesitate to stay there again and strongly recommend Sunset by the Bay or The Bunker by the Bay.

Cozy Bunker
We had a wonderful stay at Bunker by the Bay. It is perfect size for a couple. It has all the amenities that you require for a lovely getaway. It is a short distance to Pelee Provincial park as well as the ferry to Pelee Island. Remember to check in the little shed they have cornhole! The backyard overlooks the beautiful Lake Erie, there's a fire pit and a barbecue with picnic tables for your use. It looks exactly like the pictures you will not be disappointed!!

Peaceful retreat
Property is on the smaller side but it served the purpose of our stay perfectly. The view of the lake from the kitchen made for some wonderful views , especially as the sun was setting / rising, we had a few really late nights so the usual 10am checkout was looking like a tall task and our host Gabriella was so kind to let us stay well after our expected check out. 10/10 experience!

Cute little bunker
This little property was perfect to get away, relax and recharge. Located on the lake, the view is beautiful and serene. Nice and close to Point Pelee and they even give a park pass to use during your stay. The host was easy to get a hold of and we had no issues whatsoever.

Great spot. Very Welcoming
The location is nearly perfect, with the Lake Erie shoreline, crashing waves and dramatic sunsets. Point Pelee is an easy bike ride away. The cottage is sweet and comfortable, and well-stocked with essentials, ie coffee ! Gabriela is very responsive to all enqiries, and there's welcome and "farewell" messages.

Lovely
The bunker was a very lovely cottage to stay in, was a little smaller than expected but it is a good size for 2 people. My only real complaint is the comfort of the bed. It was a bit hard/lumpy which made sleeping a little uncomfortable. Still, the view was lovely and being 5 minutes from Point Pelee was a huge plus.

We had a great time again.
I have written a review about my experience many times before and continue to remember fondly. This time around my wife and I rented the bunker for 2 weeks as well as another sunsets by the bay for3 nights.This afforded us the space to have my children and grandchildren come to visit. We were able to socialize by the lake as a family and still retreat to our own quarters at end of day. We had everything we needed in the clean cottages. As usual it was a pleasure to deal with Gabriella and Kyle. We do look forward to coming back.
