Pleasant and quiet cottage on a bluff overlooking Lake Erie. Nicely renovated, clean, and comfortable. We spent six nights: enjoyed reading and relaxing while looking out over the lake. We will stay again the next time we visit family in the area.

There was no propane for the little fire pit thing, but other than that we had everything we needed. The cottage is adorable, if a little smaller than the pictures suggest. Main bed, couches, hammock, and chair were all very comfortable. Great place to disconnect from the world and enjoy a book and some close company.

Girls trip

Beautiful place! Rained all weekend but the Fisherman’s cottage was cozy and comfortable for the four of us.It is a little bit of a drive to nicer restaurants. But that would not deter me from going back again. Thoroughly enjoyed the space.
