Wonderful place for the family retreat

Very beautiful, clean and comfortable property. The hosts made sure we had everything we needed, kitchen was equipped very nicely, and we have spent a wonderful time playing games in the recreation area in the basement. The trail around the lake is nicely paved, and very nice to walk with the baby stroller. Great welcoming hosts and a wonderful place to stay.

Beautiful Lake Setting

Beautiful Lake Margaret trail that was right across the street. Property was exactly as advertised. We especially enjoyed the deck area. Great location to get to the downtown or Port Stanley. The host is fast to respond to any communication to help with your stay.

This was a great place with everything provided as advertised and also above and beyond. My cousin, whom travels worldwide was thoroughly impressed.

An amazing home away from home

We were in town for our son’s wedding. The home was 7 mins away from the venue. It was super clean and inviting. Keyless entry was great as I didn’t have to worry about losing a key. Owners were in constant contact with me up to the date of us coming, with them on call should we need them. Home is exactly what the pictures show. Not a detail missed. Highly recommend to everyone.
