Important things to note
*We are conveniently located only 1.5 hours from the GTA, Buffalo, Hamilton, Kitchener-Waterloo, and London areas. We love that our guests can reach us without having to deal with all of the stress and frustration of the 400 highway!
*The cottage is located in rural Haldimand County where the majority of grocery stores, restaurants, healthcare services, and tourist attractions are located 20-30 minutes away.
*Lake Erie is a very large open lake that can bring strong gusts of winds and waves, which can make being in the water dangerous. You and your guests are responsible for your safety in the water.
*The water levels vary and at times the beach will be under water. From time to time, algae gets blown in along the shoreline and might bring an odour. When the wind changes, it will move on.

*Currently to access the water, guest will have to navigate the break wall rocks. There are several great beaches close by if needed.
*The reality is that cottage living often comes with unwanted pests. Mosquitoes and black flies are rare on Lake Erie however other pests such as gnats and spiders do come to visit during the summer months. We try our best to minimize them however we do need our guests to follow some simple prevention practices during their stay.
