My husband and I stayed at The Suite Retreat last summer for a week. It's a perfect spot for a quiet getaway for two. A short walk to the beach, amazing views, walking distance to town, a firepit and a private hot tub. Frances is an awesome host. I would book this property again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful Place!
We had an amzing Thansgiving weekend staying at Frances place. Everything about the property is charming and cozy. And although we didnt get a chance to meet Frances (hopefully next time) she was quick to answer any questions and even gave us a late afternoon checkout which was greatly appreciated. Perfect place to relax and recharge. Would definitely return. Thanks again Frances....Stephanie and James.

Sacred Idleness….such a gift!
Everything about this place is beautiful, healing and filled with amazing energy. Frances is so lovely. I knew I’d like her just from our correspondence prior to arrival. Upon arrival I was so warmly and care-fully received. Her hospitality and desire for my enjoyment parallels no other experience I’ve ever had. The space is clean, beautiful, carefully and artfully decorated inside and out. It was a perfect getaway for a very tired single mama with 2 special needs kids. I definitely came home in better shape than I arrived!! Thank you Frances!

Francis was very personable.
Enjoyed our quiet stay. Frances does live above the property. Can hear footsteps and sometimes talking but nothing that was disturbing. The property was very clean and pretty quiet. We went for our 24th wedding anniversary and loved our stay. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who just wants to get away and relax. The hot tub was an awesome bonus. Thanks Frances. Hope to visit again!

A Wonderful Time!
The property was in a great location (we were able to walk everywhere- beach, town, grocery store!) And there was a spectacular view!! Frances was so helpful and sweet and so easy to get ahold of. We didn't get our check in information through the VRBO website, but Frances was so good about the fact that we weren't completely prepared. My husband and I fully enjoyed our time in the house! Thank you Frances forgiving us a space to spend the first half of our honeymoon!!!

Lovely overall stay
We stayed here for four nights. The suite is rustic and well-equipped. The highlight is the backyard area, with a hot tub, fire pit and barbecue. We used all of these during our stay. The view from the back area is stunning, overlooking the neighbourhood below and the lake. Lots of huge trees and birds. The property owner is very hospitable and tried to do everything possible to make our stay pleasant. The one thing to be aware of, as some previous guests have mentioned in their reviews, is that the property owner lives upstairs and you will hear noise, often quite late, coming through the ceiling from upstairs.

Luv Port Stanley
We booked the cottage but did not know it was a duplex but once we met the owner we were good. Unfortunately when we opened the door to the unit there was this terrible odour. We drove to Sparta and purchased a candle to try to mask the smell. We thought we were good until our friends arrived for a visit and they also said “there was an odour” that’s after our candle had been lit for over 8 hours. Other than that the location was perfect.
