Overall an amazingly positive expressive in a very romantic beach side town. A couple hiccups in our stay were immediately handled with a phone call to the owner who made things right by us. We're both looking forward to booking the same place in the near future.

This apartment is in an incredible location. It is next to a bakery, bike shop, and library. It is easy walking distance to the beach, several restaurants, and a coffee shop. We stayed for a week and did a lot of wonderful gravel biking, hiking, and paddle boarding. The host, Rob, was lovely and his communications were clear. The apartment was comfortable with great lighting, AC in the bedroom, and was very clean. Would love to stay again!

Close to the beach

Very clean property - close to the beach (around 2 min. walk). Great to watch sunsets on the beach. Also - right beside the local bakery which we could smell every morning when we opened the front door. Also close to other local beaches such as Port Elgin and Sauble Beach.

Great property and location.

The unit was just as described. Although we were near the main road, the propertu is nestled away from any noise so it waa very private and quaint. Many shops, restaurants, a great bakery and ice cream shop. Short walk to the beach - watched the sunset every night. Rob was an excellent host - will likely return.

We arrived at this Cottage in Southampton on the 17th and left on the 20th.PROS *Close to the beach, restaurants and main strip*Inside Cottage was clean*Parking was FreeCONS*Construction woke us up every morning at 7:45 am*Musty oder inside cottage, opening windows helped*Bathroom tap had hardly any water coming out*Internet, spotty at best. Tv not working for 2 days..Very frustrating as it rained one whole day, and nothing to do but go on our ipads.*Backyard, full of leaves and not cleaned.

Sorry for the High Street construction that's beyond my control. The dampness sometimes experienced at the cottage is the lakeside effect. Lastly, the intense heat and at times drout this summer made the leaves fall early which were delt with in between bookings.

The apartment was exactly what the pictures looked like. It was very easy accessing and Robert was always available to get a hold of. The location is fantastic as it is on the main street and about a 5 minute walk to the lake. The only issue we had was the listing stated that there was wifi and there is not. We had to use the library and it just did not connect well and didn't stay on. Also the tv does not work because there is no wifi which was unfortunate as it rained one night and it would have been nice to watch a movie. Also you have to bring your own linens which was not a problem, just know that when booking. Other than that everything was great. Very clean and cozy place.

Great Location

We enjoyed our stay at the Garden Suite. It was nicely located in the downtown core of South Hampton. A quick walk down to the beach. The bakery next door is absolutely amazing and we also really enjoyed the Bruce County Playhouse. If they are doing a theatre production when you are in South Hampton it is worth the ticket which is also very reasonably priced.
