Fantastic Long Weekend

I can’t recommend this property and hosts enough. Everything was perfect and everyone had a blast. We took advantage of the kayaks and hot tub and fire pit each day and night. We loved every detail of our stay. Thank you!!

Great Vacation Spot

Property is outstanding! Lots of space and amenities for two families. Kayaks were great and location was easy to access the river. The layout of the back yard with decks, fire pit, and hot tub was excellent! We didn’t get to enjoy the main beach in Port Franks due to the weather, but looked to be a great spot on sunny days. Cottage had lots of space for everyone on rainy days!

Amazing home!!

I had an incredible stay at this beautiful riverfront house! The cleanliness was top-notch, and the ease of checking in and out made the whole experience hassle-free. We had an amazing time, and the serene river view added to the charm of this lovely house. Highly recommended for a fun getaway with friends!

Great Family Cottage Getaway

We had a lovely long weekend stay! The outdoor area is excellent - hot tub, fire pit, BBQ, kayaks, hammocks, bunkie, and river view lookout were all fantastic. Inside, the cottage was well-stocked (kitchen was missing a microwave and one upstairs bedroom had no blinds, which I'd say should be updated), but other than that this was a great spot that we would definitely book again when visiting the area. We had six kids sleep comfortably in the basement, enjoyed the easy access to the kayaks, the private Port Franks beach nearby, and the quiet neighbourhood. Thanks!

Our intergenerational group had a great time enjoying the lovely indoor & outdoor spaces. I had worried that using kayaks might involve a slog through shrubbery and mosquitoes, but it was all good. There's a nice walkway to the kayak launch point, and some of us enjoyed kayaking out to lovely Port Franks beach and meeting up with others in our group for a beach day. We enjoyed making smores on the fire table each night, and the hot tub was lovely. A few things, just to let folks know who are trying to discern how their group will best fit with the space: stairways up and down are a bit steep with no handrail - no problem for most in our party. There is no bathroom downstairs, so our basement dwellers used the main floor bathroom, and used the shower upstairs when needed. Cold-lovers will like the well-AC'd basement more than the upstairs, which in July was a bit warm for a few of us, but there are ceiling fans. We appreciated the washer and dryer, and spacious, well-stocked kitchen (garbage bags, paper towels, basic spices, great dishes, pans.). The bunkie has electricity & wifi extender, and unless super hot, would be a great space for overflow or those who prefer their own space (and don't mind walking 20m to the house for bathroom). There's a table for 8 plus great seating outside. Kitchen is perfect for cooking and serving buffet style. Thermostat gave CO2 warning, but likely just over-sensitive (we reported this). Overall, a wonderful stay!

Wonderful Stay

This house is perfect for a city getaway. The host has thought about absolutely everything including providing water bottles, cleaning supplies, beach towels, blankets, etc. Our group used both fire places, and the hot tub and we created such great memories at this cozy cottage. This cottage is a great find and I highly recommend staying here for a unique experience and a change of scenery. Thank you so much to the hosts for having us! :)

Great girls weekend!

We had an awesome time at the “cottage”! There were so many thoughtful touches for our weekend(extra towels, water bottles, fluffy pillows!) Great backyard area, and gorgeous house. Felt very private in the backyard! Great welcome package with all the info we needed, hiking/kayak trails, and directions to the private beach. We could not figure out how to get TO the kayaks- though, we didn’t try very hard. Host was responsive and kind with every issue or question, we should have just asked! Would absolutely rent here again. Thanks so much!

Perfect getaway to unwind

We were here for the August long weekend with family and friends. This was an amazing place to visit. The stove had an attached griddle for us to make pancakes. We could use the hot tub anytime of the day or night. The host was super nice and allowed us early check in. Nice large firepit to roast marshmallows. There were kayaks for us to enjoy. We had personal contact with the host who was very accommodating and responded right away. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for rest & relaxation or to just unplug from city life. I will definitely visit again!

Annual Family Vacation

We are a family of 9. 5 adults & 4 children. It was our annual family vacation together. The home was more than adequate to meet our family size and our needs. Lots of comfortable beds. Kitchen was well stocked with just about everything we needed. Only item we missed having was wine glasses. The gas range was a bit of a challenge but we managed to figure it out. Terrific refrigerator which unfortunately would not produce ice but we just bought a bag of ice. Good dishwasher but was surprised there was not a microwave. Not a big problem for us though. Very much appreciated having access to and use of the washer and dryer. Home is well furnished and very comfortable. Beautiful deck off the back with a lovely hot tub. Appreciated having the gas bbq. We enjoyed the fire pit as well as the Lookout building with the lovely decking attached. We enjoyed the boats and appreciated having the life jackets that were supplied. Of note though is that there are not any childrens life jackets. Smallest is an Adult XS. Our family very much enjoyed our stay at this home. Lots of space to spread out, the kids loved the big yard to play in and all the activities provided. Short drive to the private beach area which the kids really enjoyed. Shawna was wonderful to deal with. Always quick to reply to any questions and very much appreciated her assistance with our entry into the home. There is already talk of renting again for next summer.

We’re a family passionate about creating memorable getaways, inspired by our love for nature and relaxation. Originally from Ontario, we’ve always been drawn to the quiet beauty of places like Port Franks. Hosting is our way of sharing this special retreat with others—whether it’s kayaking the Ausable River, unwinding in the sauna, or soaking up the private beach just minutes away. We enjoy outdoor adventures, cozy nights by the fire, and seeing families bond over the same experiences we cherish. Our goal is to make your stay feel like a home away from home, with every detail—from the golf cart to the heated deck lookout—crafted for comfort and fun. We can’t wait to welcome you to this peaceful slice of paradise!

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

Port Franks stole our hearts with its serene, small-town charm and natural beauty. Nestled between the Ausable River and Lake Huron, this neighborhood offers a perfect mix of seclusion and adventure. We love how it’s quiet and private yet brimming with things to do—kayaking, hiking trails, and the incredible Port Franks private beach just 5 minutes away. The lush forests and river views create a peaceful escape, while the friendly, laid-back vibe makes it feel like a hidden gem. It’s close enough to Grand Bend for a fun day trip, but far enough to leave the hustle behind. For us, it’s the ideal spot to recharge and connect with nature, and we’re excited to share this tranquil retreat with you!

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Our cottage stands out with its perfect blend of privacy, luxury, and adventure. Tucked along the Ausable River, it’s a fully renovated retreat sleeping 10, just 5 minutes from the exclusive Port Franks private beach. What sets it apart? A brand-new cedar wood-burning sauna, cold plunge tub, and outdoor shower for a spa-like escape; a two-tier deck with a heated lookout and TV for cozy nights; and 6 kayaks, a golf cart or bike rentals, and boat docking for endless fun. Two indoor fireplaces, a hot tub, and a fire pit add warmth, while the spacious eat-in kitchen and Bunkie offer flexibility for families. It’s not just a stay—it’s an experience, designed for relaxation and memory-making in a peaceful, nature-rich setting. You won’t find another spot that combines riverside seclusion with this level of comfort and activities!"
