Beautiful cottage within walking distance of downtown. The cottage was very clean, comfortable, and had plenty of space to relax and unwind after a day of hiking. The host was always quick to respond and very helpful throughout our stay.We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this cottage to anyone visiting the area. It’s a great place to stay, and we will definitely be back!

Great Location

Great location close to downtown and the beach. The house was a good size especially with the garage space for storage of all your beach gear. Fire pit was a great addition as well. Will likely look to stay here again for our next annual trip!

Very clean property, had all the amenities we needed. The use of beach chairs and sand buckets were a pleasant addition. Served as an easy home base to explore the Lakeshore. Close to many shopping areas, beaches, and restaurants.
