Such a great stay for a long weekend. It does feel like the little fees all add up, but that happens no matter where you book. Even though it was a bit pricey, three adults and a dog had a great time.

The property was very clean and cute with a lovely view. The location was perfect as we were completing the Bruce Trail. Water pressure could be improved. The kitchen was well equipped and bedding was clean and comfy.

Cottage stay was wonderful. Great location and amenities. Here is a list of some of our pros and cons: Pros - air conditioning in upper and lower floors - kitchen amenities such as two fridges, dishwasher made the stay enjoyable. - Covered front porch with chairs and loungers allowed us to enjoy the views of the harbour, boat traffic and arrive/departure of the Chi-Cheemaun. - 2 bathrooms was a big benefit - TV and couch area with internet services. - The outside yard for outdoor activities, such as bocce, corn-hole games and a fire pit area was really appreciated. Cons - the two smaller beds upstairs in the one room had mattresses that were not very comfortable, making sleep very difficult. Enhancing these would have made the stay much more enjoyable, taking the rating to a 5. - some missing cooking utensils, but this was our first stay here, and we will be better prepared for future stays. - some boards on the side deck by the BBQ seemed to have lost some of the support underneath, so when walking on them, they bowed down. Could be dangerous if someone steps on the wrong spot and puts their foot through the deck. All in all, this was our first time staying at this cottage and we are very interested in staying there again in the future, especially if you can replace the two mattresses. Very quiet location, close to town amenities, great for walking around, very close to the water for swimming and snorkeling. I truly appreciated the assistance and attention that Rob provided during our stay, answering any question I sent him. Thanks again for a wonderful stay. Rusty
