About this property

The Hideaway- Lake view Cottage In Wine Country

This cottage is nestled along the shores of Lake Erie in a small quite cottage community, right in the heart of epic wine Country. This cottage is perfect for a single person or a couple travelling to the area. Offers a beautiful view of Lake Erie, nice treed lot with firepit and hammock. Bikes for your enjoyment, if you wish to bike along the shore to wineries, beach, and local produce stands. The cottage is centrally located between Historical Amherstburg, beautiful Kingsville and Point Pelee National Park. There is so much to explore in the region. Fine dining, golf, bird watching, casino and so much more. Not wanting to tour around no problem, stay back and enjoy the many amenities that the cottage has to offer. Sit on the beautiful large deck to eat, have coffee, read whatever your pleasure maybe. Relax in the large treeed lot or play some yard games, hang out in the hammocks, great place for a nap while listening to lake. Many beautiful birds and if you are lucky you will see some amazing bald eagles. Nothing like ending your day sipping your favorite beverage by camp fire, not into building a fire. No problem sit lakeside and enjoy the fire table, best place to see the sunset over Lake Erie. The best part is retiring for the night with the windows open enjoy being lulled to sleep with the crashing of the waves and the beautiful lake breeze. It doesn’t matter where you are inside the cottage you will have an amazing view! Looking for a true cottage experience then this is it.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage! It was incredibly clean and had everything we could possibly need — the owners truly thought of every detail to make our stay comfortable. One of the loveliest surprises was the homemade banana bread waiting for us when we arrived — such a thoughtful touch!The view of the water was absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. We spent every evening soaking in the peaceful scenery and couldn’t believe how relaxing it was. This place is a true gem.

A true little hideaway

We loved our stay at this quaint but quality and charming retreat cottage. The location and surrounding attractions are particularly great for wine enthusiasts but equally great to just kick back and decompress while looking over the beeezy Lake Erie or taking a 10 minute stroll up the road to the lavender fields and endless vineyards.

We loved the location, the sunsets were amazing for all 3 evenings. We celebrated two milestones, my partner making it to his 70th year on this planet and the final payment on our mortgage. Life is Good. We had everything we needed at the cottage, we didn't get to cook as we were too busy taking in all the offerings of the area and needed a couple more nights to just BE in the space. We would consider staying here again.
