The 3 piece bathroom has a shower, Mexican sink, counter top and toilet The 32 foot deck extends 12 feet out towards the water which is only 15 feet away. Enjoy sunrises, morning coffee, reading, watching the ducks, geese and swans swim by or enjoy morning yoga, on the deck, right outside your door. The man-made, sandy beach ends at the waters edge, and the gravel bottom lake takes over from there so please bring water shoes. The gradually slopping boat launch is suitable for any water craft to be unloaded at and a 24 ft dock to park your play toys at during the day. If you are short on your own play toys, there are a kayak and a 14ft fiberglass canoe to use.
Bass Cove is a quiet dead end road so bring your bikes and enjoy the loop and friendly quiet neighborhood. It is 12 minutes from the Glenora Ferry which gets you to Prince Edward County, the Sandbanks, Bloomfield's eclectic shops and the many wineries and micro breweries in the area. It is only 40 minutes to downtown Kingston if you should fancy a night out or 25 mins to Napanee or Picton. Both communities are also easily accessible by boat.

My husband and I really enjoyed the unique cottage filled with countless beautiful decorative items. It was wonderful to be able to walk outside and be just a few steps from refreshing swims, especially as we stayed during a hotspell. Marta was very friendly and it was lovely to have her show us around during the check in process!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
We had a very short and disappointing experience at this property. We were not aware that linens are not supplied at the cottage- not mentioned in the listing description- so found ourselves without towels and sheets at midnight. We had to wake the owner who realized she forgot to send us an email reminder. At this time, she also mentioned that she doesn’t drink the water and we should have brought our own- we did not and had already drunk the water. We were very stressed by all of this and decided to leave the next morning because we no longer felt relaxed and positive about our holiday. Additionally, neither of us had any phone service which we needed to stay in touch with our kids. Our biggest concern was about communication. We would not have chosen this property had the listing been clear. We requested a refund which the owner refused. Very frustrating experience.

Beautiful quiet location in a funky cottage on the water's edge
Property quaint and beautiful setting but felt very much like someone else's home. Water craft and beach very limited. Needed a thorough clean and sheets provided for that price.

Dear Hilary, I can assure you that I cleaned my cottage thoroughly before you arrived. I can't imagine what I could have forgotten or overlooked to have you say this and mar my 5 star rating.
I'm not sure what more you would want in addition to the 2 kayaks and canoe that were offered for your use. We discussed sheets before you came but regardless, I am terribly sorry to hear of your disappointment. The personal touches and the warm vibe in my home are usually what my guests appreciate the most. Best of luck to you in future rentals. Namaste, Marty
This is a wonderfully eclectic and lovely cottage with lovely and warm hosts. The house was well-equipped, and Marty and Alex were helpful, generous, and fun! We hope that the weed situation for swimming can be resolved for an absolutely perfect country getaway.

Oh Thank you Robin and I hate weeds too. They are a constant chore and vary so much from year to year and even month to month. Our boat (the weed chopper) breaking down this year really put us behind but it is all good now and Alex has already been out chopping while I pull. It was lovely having you and I thoroughly enjoyed our chats. Stay well and I hope you can get to England soon.
il y avait des punaises dans le lit . nous avons été piqués . endroit malpropre. obligé de nous faire traiter et de laver tous nos vetements a eau chaude en arrivant .
Hosts were super kind and welcoming! Marty went out of her way to make us feel comfortable and make sure check-in and our stay was as smooth as possible!
An absolutely beautiful setting. Waking up every morning to such a great view was a delight, as was coffee on the deck and seeing the swans and mama duck and babies swimming by. We had a relaxing stay and loved all the treasures that Marta has decorated the cottage with.
Chalet coquet avec une vue imprenable! Possibilité de faire du kayak et du canot (fournis sur place).
Endroit paisible, hôte charmante et accueillante. Il faut environ une heure pour aller à Sandbanks en prenant le ferry de Glenora, mais ça en vaut la peine. Adoré mon séjour!
The cottage was a thoughtfully appointed, and lovingly cared-for space, stocked with everything you need, and with a gorgeous deck overlooking the lake.
There was plenty to do, as the cottage was close to a walking loop, cycling routes through gorgeous countryside, and some of the best beaches in the province. And when lounging about, there was often an opportunity for a chat with the friendly neighbours.
We had an adventure on the first day -- the fridge gave out in sweltering weather -- and Marty and Alex stored our food and went in search of a replacement fridge, which is no small feat in a pandemic. They got us sorted quickly and gifted us a bottle of wine for the inconvenience. We left well rested with good memories and kind thoughts for our gracious hosts.
Thank you for a lovely stay, Marty and Alex!
The very cute cottage was comfortable and just right for our friends' getaway. We spent most of our time on the deck where the patio furniture was very comfortable and the view was great. The host Marta was very good. A great communicator and very friendly and helpful.
This is very nice property with a view to die for! All the amenities needed for a comfortable stay and a well outfitted kitchen. We had a week of beautiful weather and practically lived on the spacious outdoor deck which looks exactly as advertised. The ferry access to Picton is very close and well run for some nice day outings! Very restful stay in a charming environment. Marta and Alex are both very hospitable and genuinely nice people. l would definitely rent again.
It was a week full of fun at this cottage with an amazing view and a huge deck to sit and relax on. We loved the beautifully decorated interior, along with canoeing on the lake. Alex and Marty are wonderful people, and they were able to help us with everything we needed. Loved to chat with them from travelling to cooking experiences.

It was an absolute pleasure to have your family. We enjoyed our time with you so much and especially your culinary treats! It was a joy to share in your excitement about your discoveries in the County and get to know you. We hope you stay in touch!
Namaste, Marty and Alex
October is a fabulously beautiful time to stay at this cabin. The foliage was spectacular and the lake was quiet because most of the boats were out for the winter. Could not have been better.
We had a terrific week at this very well-appointed cottage. It was beautifully decorated and comfortable. The full deck was the perfect place to enjoy the view of the water.
Beautifully decorated, well equipped, very homey cottage. Owners are lovely and accommodating. Friendly, sweet dogs stop in once in a while for a pet 😊
Loved this funky fun cottage. Lots of cool artifacts from the owners travels.
Great experience. Alex and Marta are wonderful people and very down to earth. They were really interesting people to talk to. We loved hearing about their travel experiences.

Thanks so much for the review Brian. It was lovely to have you both and we certainly enjoyed our chats and having you here. Hope we see you again!
We absolutely loved our stay at Marty and Alex’s waterfront cottage. The location is beautiful, the cottage is filled with all the amenities and the hosts were delightful. We watched the sunset across the lake every evening from the patio and enjoyed swimming and bbqing every day. The wine County was a bonus. Truly a gem of a place! We enjoyed our stay very much and we are hoping to come visit again next year!

Thanks for the review Adraina! It was truly a joy to connect with you on such a personal level. The cottage does seem to attract the greatest people and the exchanges are wonderful! I hope we see you back again and thanks again for the book! I am thoroughly enjoying it! : )
We had such an amazing time staying at Marty and Alex's home. The photos do not do justice to how comfortable and relaxing the space is. Tofu was a little prince visiting us and we loved their dogs as well - pets are always a bonus for us when we are travelling. Kitchen had everything needed to make dinner and the back deck was our favourite spot to hang out and listen to the water. We plan on going back next year for sure!

About the host
Hosted by Marta Lambert
We are a couple of empty nesters who are eagerly transitioning into "early retirees" and avid travelers. As such, we are finding that we don't really need a full-time residence all year long and are able to share our comfortable, eclectic little cottage. We love to camp and travel in the summer in our 1974 VW Westy, with our two affectionate Dalmatians, so our cottage is available for others to enjoy. We are veteran hosts, as we previously owned a 5 bedroom house with 2 one bedroom apartments at our home in Prince Edward County. We will typically greet guests when you arrive for your week long stay, make sure you are comfortable and equipped with all that you need and then we will quietly retreat to or tipi at the back of the property to pack and leave for our own adventures.
Why they chose this property
LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION!!! The true beauty of our cottage is its diversity! It's man-made beach, boat launch, dock and included play toys make it unnecessary to leave the property. However, its proximity to "The County" , Napanee and Kingston mean that day trips, for whatever you fancy, are minutes away. You can boat to Picton in 15 minutes, or take the quaint Glenora ferry only a 12 minute drive away.
What makes this property unique
Our humble cottage is the full-time residence of a couple of professionals, striving to get out of the rat race. The cottage is our expression of the tiny house movement. It has been furnished with the favourite items from our two larger homes and we have made comfort, practicality, beauty and our environmental foot print, priorities.
