Great cottage with beautiful views
We (5 adults) went up for family day weekend. The cottage is unique but feels very spacious and clean. The beds were comfortable. The views are awesome. The cottage is well organized as a rental with lots of tips and notes to make your stay easy. The host, Matt, was very responsive and accommodating. We would definitely rent again.

Beautiful location
Rich-Haven is in a beautiful location. We loved sitting in the dock in the morning and evening, going to Sauble Beach, hiking at Bruce Peninsula, and taking a boat to Flower Pot Island. The house itself is a little musty smelling as it is old. There are a lot of rooms if you need time away from everyone. It is a very interesting house. Owner was very attentive.
