Beautiful view, nice property
The property was very clean and comfortable with a fantastic view. Lots of windows with a few that can be a little stiff when trying to close or open the metal exterior blinds but manageable. On our first day it was cool and windy on the lake with huge waves crashing against the rocks out front and splashing against the large bay windows, we were looking forward to the hot tub. Had unexpected guests arrive for a few drinks and late night hot tub but unfortunately tub water level wasn't checked prior to our arrival so it never got to temperature. Tub error code in the morning helped me figure that out. After adding water and a few hours later, it got to temperature and we were able to enjoy a nice hot tub on our final day. I relaxed with a coffee in the morning and thought I'd go over the long detailed rental agreement the dream team sent me. First the check out time, 10AM? Just enough time to read the agreement and 2 coffee's and make sure we did everything properly. 11AM is reasonable in my opinion, felt rushed even though I'm an early riser. And YES, make sure you read it carefully, there are many charges for not leaving on time, not sorting your recyclables to what to do with your garbage, sorry, don't remember them all. Seems to be the NEW short term rental agreement thing to make the renter do all these things, I personally am not fond of it. All in all a nice relaxing 2 days to unwind and enjoy the beautiful view in a clean comfortable home , beds were super comfy too.

Summer Getaway
My husband and I stayed at this Hideaway for 4 nights summer 2024. The place was extremely clean when we arrived! What you see on the Vrbo app is very accurate, there were no surprises. The hosts were very friendly and responded quickly to any of our questions before our trip and while we were there. The only thing we would suggest, is the place needs a much larger fridge. The current fridge is an apartment size and if you have a family and kids and your food/drinks for 4-5 days, there is not much room. We completely enjoyed our stay at this location. The restaurant across the street Freddie’s, had great food and super friendly owners, definitely recommend visiting there during your stay!

Lovely cottage on a scenic shoreline
We had a lovely, restful stay at this cottage on Point Pelee. The open floor plan with so many windows was just perfect and the patio a lovely place to unwind and read. The cottage is tastefully appointed with plenty of indoor and outdoor space to relax or recreate. The shower is a wow - and we took photos for inspiration! Kitchen was liberally supplied with all we needed. Very nice overall!

Overall the property is great. Newly renovated, clean, great patio with hot tub, great location and kitchen is very well stocked. On the downside - some things need to be maintained much better. One of the patio boards is cracked, the door the washing machine are broken off the hinges, some of the blinds are broken or missing and the screen to upstairs bedroom is ripped in several places. When you are paying top dollar these things should be repaired right away. If these little things bother you, I would suggest looking at another property.

Wonderful Summer Interlude
My girlfriend and I had a wonderful stay at the lakeside cottage, which Paul had tastefully appointed. We loved the amazing view of the lake from the floor to ceiling windows and enjoyed a fire on the patio our first night before venturing over to Pelee Island our second day. Beds were super comfy and I can't think of one amenity we needed after arrival. We had some terrible storms Thursday night but enjoyed the sound of the waves crashing over the rocks. We would definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises to go back.

Beautiful calming view of the lake
The cottage is tidy and cute, but the best thing about it is the gorgeous view from 2 sides. There is a flattened lot next door, and next to that a pretty wrecked house, but we looked the other way and focused on the stunning lake in front of us and the view of the little park on the other side. We really enjoyed the parks nearby, with lots of walking trails, and we loved the town of Leamington and the very nice beach. The only things on the negative side - and they were minor for us - - There were big black ants, probably from the very pretty willow tree hanging over the house. We didn't see any in the bedrooms, and were very careful not to leave any crumbs or food out. - The back door next to the big picture windows was stuck shut, so we had to go around from the kitchen to get to the patio - not a big deal. - The instructions for using the TV are hilariously sun faded (it took two of us and an iphone flashlight to solve the mystery) and it'll instruct you to use a Netflix account that doesn't exist anymore. - There's no paved walk or path from the parking pad to the door, so it was awkward dragging luggage across the lawn. None of the negatives were enough for me to give our stay anything less than 5 stars. It was perfect for us, calming, beautiful, peaceful, clean, and perfectly located.

Fabulous location and Accomodation
Thank you Paul for a great stay! this is a very well appointed and decorated cottage w/ 2 nice bedrooms and a GREAT feel. Will definitely stay again. It is located in what would be a busy "main street" in summer months (again for a cottage on a point), but really nicely located to a great restaurant and the Point Pelee park.. . when we stayed it was mid-fall and we had really poor weather and so weren't able to use the really great deck and fireplace... which would have been great, BUT we got to see stormy lake Erie up close and loved every cosy minute. the hosts left a wonderfully detailed and clear welcome book (soooo good) and a bottle of wine, which was perfect after a long day of driving. the kitchen is well appointed. the toaster used w/ any other appliance will blow the breaker, BUT it is a cottage... similarly the internet was quite slow by today's standard... but that's the point.. UNPLUG! it's such a great spot. you will not want to leave. See you again soon!
