Lake breezes, bird songs and fireside tales

We had a wonderful stay at this property. Everything met our expectations and needs, and the host was very gracious and accommodating. Lots of green space surrounding the property made for fun adventures for our grandkids.

Great family time. Peaceful, private and relaxing.Definitely be back with the family was one of the best times we have had. The beach was beautiful private and just sitting hearing the waves soaking up the sun was just unbelievably relaxing. David is an amazing host and an amazing person. Definitely didn’t want to leave.

Best holiday in years

My family and I were thrilled with the cottage and the location. The cottage had everything we needed and more. The location was close to all the places we wanted to visit, and lots of quiet time when we need it. David was a great host. Thanks so much.

Laid back and friendly

This is a well thought out and cared for property with a comfortable, laid back charm. The hosts are attentive and very nice. A great location right next to the waves on the lake. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and a rockin' thunderstorm...plus barbecuing on the large deck and a wood stocked fire pit. Thanks for a great stay!

Antrim Cottage

Amazing property with fantastic lake view and private beach. 6 of us for 3 nights. Plenty of room. Nice comfortable beds. The large deck and huge yard makes being outdoors so easy. Very nice beach with shallow water . Overall stay was perfect. David is a great host and we are looking forward to booking again

Robert, Michelle and friends were wonderful guests to host. They used all parts of the property, enjoying all that it had on offer. I very much appreciate how they cleaned up and left the cottage as they found it. Hope to see the gang in the future.

Peaceful family time

Our stay was just perfect! The sound of the waves to fall asleep to was exactly what we all needed. The home had it all.. comfy beds, spacious living area, beautiful yard, sound system for music lovers. Dave met us and gave us a tour and was very quick at communication for our needs. The deck was lovely for morning yoga and sunbathing. The bikes and travel books were a plus! We had a wonderfully relaxing week in Rondeau.

Antrim getaway

My wife and I had a great, relaxing weekend here. The area is somewhat secluded and very peaceful . We spent the bulk of our time down on the beach . The cottage itself was very comfortable and clean. David is a great host and is open to suggestions . We'll be back.

Thank you David for your review and we appreciated both you Linda staying at our cottage. You had mentioned about the air-conditioning to me directly, which is only 2 weeks, about upstairs not being as cool as downstairs. I fixed the situation by redirecting air from the basement vents. Hope to see you both in the future. Cheers. David, Elizabeth & Finnegan

Sanctuary!

Antrim Cottage the place to go if you want "Peace & Quiet"! Cottage is so well equipped and clean and the veiws are wonderfu. So much to see and do if you happen to need a days outing. We would recommend Point Pelee park if you want to see birds in the Spring or Fall. The Bakery Trail was a fun rainy day activity. David was on hand or at the end of the phone when ever we needed anything. And he will give you the directions to where to go to buy fresh fish! This property is "5 STAR!"

Fabulous cottage by the lake

We loved everything about the cottage, it really is a gem! It is well furnished, clean, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped with everything we needed. David is a very friendly host, easy to communicate with and obviously takes great care of the cottage. We were on a birding trip so spent most of our time at Rondeau Provincial Park (the cottage is ideally located for visiting Rondeau) but enjoyed the decks very much at the end of the day. We were too busy to use the very nice looking bicycles that were available or the firepit or the beach - we wished we had more time to take advantage of all the cottage had to offer. We definitely want to book this property again and will add a couple of extra days next time. 5 stars all the way!

Suzanne and her family were the perfect guests, being timely and taking care of the property. I am very happy that their birding ventures turned out well both at the nearby provincial park and around our home. I hope to see Suzanne, John & Moira back in the next migration. Happy bird watching 😊
