Amazing location!
Location was amazing and the cottage well equipped. It was unclear from the listing that the main house has 3 bedrooms and the bunk beds are actually in a separate bunkie out back. Still made it work with our 4 kids and had an excellent time!

We had a wonderful stay. It was a very short walk to the main beach -- even with young children. The cottage comes equipped with everything you could possibly need and worked great for the two weeks we were there....even on a couple of rainy days. Highly recommend.

Great family weekend
Our family was in Port Elgin for the weekend to attend a celebration of life and it also happened to be pumpkin fest weekend in Port Elgin. The cottage was the perfect location, really clean, very comfortable recliner couches in the living room for movie nights and just overall an incredibly relaxing cottage vibe for all of us. Spacious primary room for us to setup our baby’s pack and play for sleeping. The host made communication easy. We would happily book this cottage again in the future.

Perfection
We just spent a fabulous week here with 3 generations. Eating outside under cover or in the back by a campfire was a hit. Private yard in the front as well. So much room inside as well. We never felt we were on top of each other.
Proximity to the beach was perfect. First ever fish were caught by the kids 2 minutes from the house.
It really was amazing, and we are already planning next year's visit.
Thank you

Great stay for a group
I stayed at Greg’s property with a group celebrating a 2 year wedding anniversary. We had enough space to spend time indoors when the weather wasn’t ideal without being on top of each other. The backyard was great for barbecuing and playing games. The view of the boats was so lovely in the morning and the beach was only a short walk away! We had the best time and would love stay again!

Family Fun Time in the PORT
Our family had an AaaMazzzing time at the Lakehouse Cottage!! The accommodations suited our large group of all ages beautifully – it was also wonderful to have 2 1/2 bathrooms! The common living space was bright, open and generous. The location was throughly enjoyed by all in offering lake views, epic sunsets, quick walkway access to the marina and beach area or to the park and splash pad! We can’t wait to go back!!
