Port Elgin getaway
House is large , easily accommodates 10 family members. Kitchen is well equipped (fridge, stove, microwave, Keurig coffee maker …. Etc.). Place does need a good cleaning and new furniture (some of which are falling apart). Shower curtain was an abomination… needed to be replaced. Large backyard and beautiful patio with gas barbecue. Good location , close to town and beach (walking distance)

Comfortable stay.
We enjoyed our time! All the basic things we needed. Lots of space for guests inside and out. Good location to business and 10 minute walk to the beach. Enough amenities to keep us busy while relaxing or at the beach. Good communication from the host. Cleanliness could be improved.

Wonderful spacious home!
We stayed at this home with a variety of age ranges from baby - adult. This home was very spacious and allowed for everyone to have their own space and were not crowded. The home was very clean and had so many basic amenities which was very helpful! The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need. We appreciated the individual AC units in the rooms so everyone could set their own temperatures. Only about a 10 minute walk from the main beach which was very convenient. Large backyard for our family to enjoy the sunshine, BBQ and have a fire. We really enjoyed our time here! :)

Relaxing getaway
Enjoyed the cottage very much! Teenage kids loved being close to town to go for walks and having their independence. Beach was a short drive, loved the sandy entrance for the water, no rocks. Cottage had lots of space, fit 8 comfortably. Loved the outdoor space, spent a lot of time on the deck. Thank you for a wonderful week, we hope to be back next year. Thanks Darlene

We had a wonderful time. The cottage was clean and neighborhood was quiet. Nice to be fairly close to the beach and the downtown. My only complaint was the bbq was disgusting. Who ever was there before our visit left it a mess. But overall was a great week 😀

Great location, not for people with allergies
Great location, mid point between the main shopping street and beach. House is stocked with everything you could need. Nice back yard and deck. Unfortunately I didn’t realize that allowing pets would mean dog hair and smell throughout the house. Also there is a very strong odour of mildew in the front entry and front bedroom. People with allergy sensitivities beware.

We were very impress with this cottage. It was extremely clean. There was a large deck and a very large back yard. The interior is very spacious with plenty of room. We could not have asked for more. I would recommend this cottage and will rebook as well.

Better than expected in several aspects
We stayed in this home last week and loved many aspects. Clean! Excellent Air Cond, Wi-Fi, Netflix, Amazon Prime Large bedrooms and huge upstairs bathroom Well stocked kitchen. Fabulous deck with nice furniture, huge umbrella, new BBQ Perfect for families. Huge fenced yard. Quiet, residential neighborhood (unlike the cottage areas that are nearer the beach) OK, Yes, the downstairs 1/2 bath is small but big enough for most folks. We used it often. Yes, a 10 minute walk to the beach along a tree lined tree; a bit steep so most folks drive. Lots of parking at the beach. One Note: As with all century homes, the stairs are steep; these also take a turn halfway up. Be sure to use the handrail. The price: excellent value in our opinion for a house of this size. Not fancy, but clean, comfortable.

Déception mais bien situé et belle cour et patio
Lave vaisselle brisé, propriétaire le savait, aucun rabais ni empressement à régler le problème durant la semaine. Toute la vaisselle dans les armoires était sale, même avec restants de nourriture dans les assiettes. Les divans du salon et chaises de salle à manger étaient tous tachés, on devait les couvrir pour s’asseoir. Par contre, lits confortables maison bien située, très belle cour arrière et véranda, grand rangement devant la maison pour paddle board etc.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Advertised as steps from the Beach. It is not but rather requires a drive to beach. Extremely intrusive neighbours as this is not a Cottage but rather a House in a Residential neighborhood. Old Cottage poorly updated. Very musty smelling. Grounds are unkept.Main floor washroom is smaller than a phone booth. For the price this place is a rip off for sure. Owner does not respond to questions posed. Very disappointing stay. Would never return. Terrible rental!
