Fantastic bird watching, pool in May, lush gardens, beach, trails, wineries.

With spectacular views of Long Points inner bay, nestled in private and beautiful gardens, with original art and a pool, Cotes du Rowan is a restored century cottage in the village of Pt. Rowan. The gardens hold Carolinian species, rare and unique flora and is a bird watchers paradise.

Cotes du Rowan has 3 bedrooms (King bed, queen bed, double bed) 2 bathrooms and a swimming pool. There is a full kitchen, living room with fireplace, dining room and a library with a day bed for napping or meditation. A front sunroom is excellent for watching the sunset.

Restore your bond with nature. Stroll through the mature gardens, relax in the outdoor active solar heated swimming pool or simply sit on the hill's edge watching birds or boats and look for the neighborhood eagle.

Its a 13 minute walk to shops and restaurants and a 10 minute drive to beaches, hiking trails and wineries.

Cote Du Rowan- is a lovely wine indeed.
Cote Du Rowan- was everything we were looking for and more in a vacation. It was spacious inside, clean, artfully decorated, beautiful outdoor swimming space and view of the lake. It was all and all wonderful. Rasa and Mark (maybe Marc? :)), were welcoming and kind, but also gave us complete privacy during our stay. Very respectful and congenial.

Relaxing with great views
The hosts were lovely and made the stay memorable. The pool and almost tropical views were amazing. Comfy beds and large kitchen. Nearby Antique store and birding was great!

Amazing stay, quiet, beautiful and close to nature. Peaceful town. Incredible hosts, clean house with all the amenities and comfort. The pool was warm even on cold days. The house was lovely and very welcoming. Gorgeous garden around the house, they even bring in a couple of goats to eat some of the vegetation on the hill which was an absolute thrill for us. Would definitely go back again.

Cotes du Rowan - Amazing!
Cotes du Rowan is a fantastic place with absolutely stunning views of Long Point inner bay. A great place for an early fall girls retreat to de - stress! The gardens were a magical place to wander, and we found out that the owners keep the pool open, warm and clean as long as possible!!! The house was so clean, beds comfortable with high end sheets and duvets. The kitchen is truly well equipped for cooking gourmet meals, and we also found fresh market produce from the Port Rowan Harbour market. Rasa and Marc are very special hosts . Not only did they give us a basket of locally produced goodies, snacks and...yes that included beer and wine . They also let us use their Long Point Provincial park pass. We were pleasantly surprised by how much there is to do in this area. from visiting vineyards, breweries, golf, historic walking trails and Great shopping in Port Rowan! Definitely will be back with our families! Lindy, Lorie, Dale and Daiva

Peaceful Perfection!
Cotes du Rowan is absolute magic! There are not enough words to express how amazing this cottage is. The view of Lake Erie brings a calm, that any water lover will understand. The gardens and pathways make you feel as if you’ve been swept away to a far off land. The cottage itself was so comfortable and felt like home the minute you walked in. The pool was a dream was always the perfect temperature/clean. Rasa and Marc have thought of every little detail, to make this place beyond wonderful. They made themselves available for anything we needed and were beyond welcoming! There is no doubt, we will be back!!!
