Fantastic stay close to the Pinery and Grand Bend. Very quiet location in a residential neighbourhood. Beds are very comfy. Clean and has everything you'll need. We enjoyed kayaking on the river. Plenty of lifejackets in all sizes. The stairs are steep to the main living, kitchen, and bedroom areas but there is a baby gate at the top to keep your kids or pet from going down. Overall we loved our stay and plan to go back next summer!

Lovely home away from home

The cottage was very clean, comfortable and homey. It was just a short drive to hiking trails and the beach as well as Grand Bend shops. We enjoyed our stay. Our only concern was not having handy contact information for our hosts in case of emergency.

Grand Bend/Pinery Provincial Park Vacation

Very roomy cottage with lots of room 3 plus families. Great yard with lots of room for outdoor activities. Very close to the town of Grand Bend for dining as well as the beach. Our group preferred the "Dog Beach" at the Pinery since my daughters brought their dogs. The Pinery Provincial Park is also a very scenic park with a great beach!

Another Great Stay

We had stayed here in the winter for a hockey tournament and loved the place so we decided to book for our few days in the summer.Trudy is a great host and aims to please. The location is quiet and kept nicely, out in the country which we prefer as we are country folk as well. Next time we are in the area winter or summer this is the place we will be booking. Thanks again Trudy for a relaxing stay.
