Large cottage in a quiet area
Overall, our family had a nice time in the area. The cottage is close to Bayfield and in a quiet neighborhood. We did have a few issues during our stay, but they were addressed quickly by the host. I do not believe in giving blanket 5/5 stars, as I don't believe that helps future guests of the platform. If you are looking for a large cottage with fenced in backyard, this is suitable. However, we decided to go with 4/5 stars as the cottage has lots of wear and tear and access to the beach is 100+ stairs (or narrow and steep forest path) which is difficult for any mobility issues / young children.

Wonderful location, EXCELLENT SERVICE
This is a fabulous property. Quiet, lots of space, view of the lake. The screened in porch is fabulous. We are a group of 4 sisters. The property manager George is amazing. Contacted him early in morning with an issue and he responded IMMEDIATELY and had someone there it fix the problem later that morning. Communication was excellent. George did everything he could do to make it right. We are return guests and I would highly recommend this property.

Family summer vacation 2024
We stayed for a week with 8 adults and 2 grand children. Lots of room for us. Beautiful view of the lake from the front living room and a screened in porch at the back. We enjoyed the fenced yard for my sons dog, and the fire pit was a big hit at night. About a 5 minute walk to stairs leading to the beach The weather was not very cooperative for us, however, we still got 2 days to enjoy the beach. There is a nice gas b.b.q on the deck. The host was quick to respond to afew questions we had. Definitely will be back. We had a great time.

My Bulldog Gives 5 Stars!
This property is a dog owners dream! Huge fenced backyard so you don't have to have your pup on leash all the time and we had access to a private beach which my bulldog loved. We used the beach daily and never ran into another person on it. The town of Bayfield has water bowls for dogs outside most shops and again our bulldog was welcome most places in town. All of this made vacationing with our dog really easy - which was initially a worry of ours when booking time away from home.

Our long-delayed trip with kids & grandkids
We had a good time, in part because the weather was excellent and we could be outside a lot. But inside was good too. We'd suggest that the owner put curtains over the French doors on the loft level, both for privacy and to keep sunny days from heating that bedroom up. But overall it was an excellent rental, and we'd be happy to return.

Property was clean and had all the necessary amenities. Huge fenced yard was perfect for the dog and two little kids to run around. The beach is accessible by 104 steps. Was not realistic for the little kids or the dog or for fishing. If you want a quiet get away, this home is perfect

This is a lovely property. It is accurately represented in the VROB listing. Property is a large corner lot with lots of fully fenced outdoor space.Lots of space inside as well, lovely screened porch in the back. We made use of the screen porch a lot. The living room area is quite warm in the afternoon and early evenings with the large windows at the front offering a lovely view, but also allowing unrestricted sunshine into the room. Dining table is beautiful and can seat 8 people comfortably. The cleaning personnel are very conscientious and thorough. The host George was immediately available and ready to go above and beyond to mitigate problems that arose with the BBQ. Thanks George. We had a very relaxing, quiet stay, watching birds and chipmunks, deer and rabbits. Great central location for short day trips. We will definitely book again.

Family stay
We enjoyed the house near Bayfield! The completely fenced in backyard was amazing for our dog and 2 year old son. The layout of the house was spacious for him to play and he really enjoyed the toys provided. Both sets of grandparents and ourselves had room at the dinner table and large kitchen. A/C was great, 3 bathrooms ensures everyone had access and the bath tub upstairs was great for our son. We were very pleased there was a toddler appropriate room with toddler beds. Everyone enjoyed soaking up sun on the deck. The street is quiet and our son went up and down it with his bicycle. It was nice to see the water and check out the beach but it wasn’t quite safe enough for our son, a fair amount of stairs and rocks. And we were unsure if we could use other parts of the beach depending on if it was the neighbours property. However Goderich is nearby (20min) with lots of beaches and amazing playgrounds. There are many playgrounds in the area and a couple museums he would have enjoyed if we had more time. We also visited River Road Brewery 5min away that had farm animals, live music and beer! So there is plenty to do in the area. As long as you’re willing to drive 5-20min to check out beaches, trails, and shops you’re all set as the neighbourhood is very small, friendly and quiet, down the road is a highway, so when I tried jogging locally with my dog there wasn’t many options but I should have just popped in the car and went somewhere else. Overall very happy with our stay!

Beautiful Area!
This was a beautiful cottage filled with a lot of amenities and great access to the beautiful waterfront! We had a great time here. The place could benefit from having a centralized book with instructions, directions to the beach, and rules as we found it hard to gather information quite often. This meant we were messaging the host, who was sometimes hard to reach, more often than we would have liked. There was also conflicting information given to us on the website and other portals. The cleaners were also still working while we were trying to check in to the property.
