The cottage was perfect for what we wanted. Dog friendly and close to many hiking trails. We were able to explore the Bruce Peninsula with ease. The host was quick to reply to all messages and inquiries. Very clean and cozy. Lots of fun games to play and a lovely welcome package.Thank you!

Great stay

Nice clean property, each room has a queen bed. Kitchen has everything you need and the welcome basket was excellent! We used the bbq and fire pit with delight and a lot of great hiking spots are a short drive away.

Howvendale Haven

Loved the place, 6 of us (friends from elementary school) got to stay here for two nights, found it super cozy, and loved the ambiance. Had the best time of our lives, very sad to leave.

Funky House

The house has a funky layout but it was great that my friends and I each had our own rooms. They were spread out through the funky layout.

Victoria Day weekend stay

The property is fantastic place with rustic vibes. The location is close to both Tobermory and Sauble Beach. The bedrooms are huge and well equipped with all amenities. Perfect for a family of 6 people. The only negatives I could find is that bathroom is cramped. There was no welcome goodie bag as mentioned in the description. Also I was informed that kitchen was stacked with Sugar but couldn't find any.

Bed bugs

My daughter had bed bug bites on both her hands, it was the corner room on the right of the home. She is on meds now as she is alergic to bug bites.

My family had a wonderful time at Howdenvale Haven for the week! The cottage was spacious, clean and close to many different amenities. We loved walking to the beach! Sauble beach, Wiarton and Lions head are only a 20 minute drive. Tobemory was less than an hour. My family was able to explore so many different areas in the Bruce Peninsula! The property was large and perfect for our family who love to be playing games and sitting by the fire. Check in and check out were easy. Communication with property management was quick and easy. Any time I had a question I received a prompt response. The lovely gift basket was a pleasant bonus for sure! We would definitely stay here again. We had a wonderful time.

Howdenvale Haven

We went to the Haven for 4 days at the beginning of June. We loved the cottage - it was updated and at the same time had some real cottage feel to it. - It was clean and filled with all the necessities you could think of. There wasn’t one thing missing in the kitchen that we needed to use to make our meals. We loved the fact that it had 2 bathrooms - one for my husband and I and one for both adult kids - perfect! It is a nice property on a nice little street which was very quiet and private. The little beach was a short walk just down the road. The water of course was still cold, though nice and shallow. The dogs loved it! Great for water frisbee. Communication with the property manager Nathan was fantastic. His responses to any of my questions were prompt and friendly. I would absolutely book this place again!
