I'm a newly divorced dad and planned this trip with my kids. Ruth was amazing during this whole experience and the place was awesome. Great location, clean, and cozy. Also it was my son's birthday during this week and we walked into the cottage and Ruth had a card and wonderful gift for my son that made his day. I have nothing but great things to say about this experience, the cottage and Ruth. Kids are already looking forward to next year and years to come as this is a new yearly tradition with me and my kids

Hi Ricky and family! Thank you so much for your incredibly heartfelt review. It truly means more to me than words can express. It was such a pleasure hosting you and your children, and I’m especially honoured that you chose Amazing Grace Cove for such a meaningful trip together. Knowing that this getaway became part of creating special memories as a dad with your kids, and that your son’s birthday was joyfully celebrated, brings me so much joy. I’m so glad the small surprise helped make his day a little more special. Your children’s excitement about returning next year is the greatest compliment I could receive! It would be an absolute pleasure to welcome all of you back, and hopefully become a small part of your new annual family tradition, for many years to come. Wishing you and your wonderful family many more beautiful adventures and precious memories together. You’ll always be warmly welcomed at Amazing Grace Cove!

We had a wonderful stay at this property last week! There were 8 of us, and the space comfortably accommodated everyone. The property was exactly as described, clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a great family getaway. The only small surprise was that we were expecting bunk beds, but that may have been a misunderstanding on our part when booking.The host was fantastic—friendly, responsive, and very easy to communicate with both before and during our stay, which made the whole experience stress-free.This was our first visit to Sherkston Shores, and it definitely won't be our last! The four kids in our group had an absolute blast. There were so many activities and amenities to keep them entertained, and they were busy from morning until night. It made for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation for the adults as well.We would happily stay here again and would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a fun family getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Ruth

Host profile image


I reside in the Niagara Region, where I served in the government for almost 25 years, supporting individuals and families, and advocating for the vulnerable.

Currently, I am an ordained and licenced Wedding Officiant, Life Celebrant and an experienced public speaker in both church and non-church settings.

As a certified Life Coach, I have a passion for celebrating life's milestones and supporting people through relationships, terminal illness, and grief. I love traveling, spending quality time with family and friends, and advocating for those who are hurting or vulnerable.
My goal is to make a positive impact wherever life plants me, and to lift others up, whenever an opportunity arises.

Why they chose this property

We chose Sherkston Shores Resort in Port Colborne for its beautiful Lake Erie beaches, vibrant family-friendly atmosphere, its safety with 24-hour security and endless activities—from waterslides and live entertainment, to quiet sunset walks.

It's the perfect place to gather loved ones and create lasting memories, which is exactly what inspires me most about this community.

What makes this property unique

What makes Amazing Grace Cove cottage special is its prime location (just a 2-minute walk to most of the Resort amenities (the Funplex, sports centre (e.g. tennis, badminton, pickleball) , restaurants, pools, grocery store, and food trucks), 5-minute drive to Wyldewood Beach, the included lifted golf cart for easy resort exploration, spacious deck with private gazebo, stone fire pit, and cozy setup designed for relaxation and connection.

We love hosting because it lets us share this welcoming space where guests can unwind, reconnect, and celebrate the moments that matter most. Welcome, and enjoy your stay!
