The house and property was wonderful; there was an unforseen issue with hot water during our stay and barring that I would have rated our stay five stars. The host - Michael - was absolutely wonderful and made the stay great still despite having no hot water. We felt cared for the entire stay. We will be going back for sure!

Thanks for the kind review. While an unforeseen hot water issue came up during your stay, we have replaced the water tank with a brand-new unit to ensure everything is in top shape for your next visit. We look forward to hosting you again!

The house is beautiful, clean, and spacious. The location is perfect to do any amount of activities in the area. My only very minor complaint is the mattress in the bedroom with one bed is quite uncomfortable.

Comfortable, clean and well equipped cottage with a stunning sunset view. The kiddos loved kayaking on the Huron, campfires and playing with fetch with the doggo on the beautiful fully manicured grounds. Would book again!

A lovely quiet home and everything worked well. A great view. Need water shoes or runners to walk on Stoney shore to get close to the water. Having access to Park Pass was great, even though entrance to National Park is free at this time, parking is not. It’s 17.50 a day so a lovely savings.

Communications with Michael was great, check-in was easy and all the instructions and informations about the property or the area were easily accessible and very helpful. The place was charming and had everything our family needed. The wonderful access to the lake and the beautiful sunsets were the highlights of our stay.

Our stay was absolutely great! The location is superb and the view is even better. We enjoyed biking and hiking in the area and discovered Dorcas Bay on kayaks. The hosts thought of everything so that guests can enjoy and relax. Would definitely stay again!

We loved our stay. The property is gorgeous and the view is amazing. Everything was nicely arranged both inside and outside. We were lucky to have a couple of fires by the lake and you can’t beat the setup and the view. Michael was great answering all of our questions. This was the perfect home base to explore Tobermory and the nearby national parks.

A very comfortable cottage almost inside a beautiful National Park

Bruce Peninsula National Park is beautiful, ant cottages line the Lake Huron shore just south of Singing Sands Beach. That is where this lovely cottage is located. But we have learned that beautiful locations are not enough for a great stay. You need a well equipped place with a great host. This location has all three - location, wonderful place to stay, and great host.
