A very short walk for you & the kids to reach the playground, splash pad, beach and public restrooms (you can use our Little Tykes wagon). This is a smaller beach. Just adults? Head to "The Wreck" over looks the pier and the lake. Tour one or more of the numerous wineries within minutes of the cottage. i.e. Paglione with their outdoor wood oven pizza's and gelato, Viewpointe, for an outstanding view of the lake. If you end up with a rainy day, take a 15 - 20 minute drive to Amhurstberg for some historic tours, or maybe check out scenic Kingsville for a little shopping and a selection of great restaurants. After enjoying the firepit you may want to relax on the front porch and listen to the lap of the waves. Pack light, we've thought of everything!

Such a wonderful visit! The cottage was neat and clean, even better in person than the photos. Early check in was a nice surprise, it allowed us to enjoy the beach for an extra day! Our 4 year old loved riding her bike over to the playground and we loved how close it was! We were told to pack light as the cottage has everything we need and it was true. We hope to return again next year!
The property is as posted, great proximity to the Colchester beach and park/splash pad.. all a very short walk. Restaurants walking distance and very good food. The cottage is tastefully decorated and fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. Just need to bring food and your suitcase. Beach towels chairs bbq and outside dining all supplied. Even a fire pit for roasting marshmallows. We had a great 5 days in July 2026.
Amazing adorable spot to relax. Cottage has all the essentials you might need. Clean, comfortable, nicely finished inside and out. Clean, good sized beach nearby with a park and splash pad. County clearly keeps things clean and well maintained. Joe's cafe is a great spot too. Finished with a fire in the pit out back, gorgeous yard to play with kids. Hosts are easy to get a hold of and very hospitable. We will likely be back at some point!
This cottage is in an excellent location & close to so many towns and wineries. The beach is quite close. I was so relaxed after spending the week there and will be back next year.
As always the cottage was perfect. This is my fifth time renting from Denise and this time we brought friends who also loved the cottage. We ate at a local winery and went to Point Pelee national park. Lovely memories and great place to relax.
My family and I had a great stay at this awesome property. It’s so clean, very comfortable and so close to the lake side parks. This property has absolutely everything you could want to enjoy a stay in summer or in fall as we just did.

Easy check in and out. Hospitable host. Great, comfortable property. Can't ask for more!
Roomy, clean, well-stocked linens and kitchen items, quiet neighbourhood, nicely decorated. Loved sitting on the front deck with morning coffee watching the weather over the lake. Enjoyed our stay immensely.
We had an amazing stay here. The surroundings are beautiful. The cottage was stocked with everything you could imagine. We would highly recommend this place of oasis to anyone.

We had a wonderful 5-star stay here for a birthday getaway—just two of us looking for a relaxing break. The cottage was very clean and exactly as described, and check-in was easy; our host even let us know we could arrive early, which we appreciated. There were lots of movies, books, and games available—great for families—though we didn’t need them. We loved relaxing by the window or on the front deck watching the water. The location was convenient, and we could walk to a nearby restaurant. If you are into wineries, there are so many close by! We found one we enjoyed with an outdoor fireplace. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this place—it’s exactly what you want in a cottage getaway.
