Quintessential summer home, beautiful water views, short walk to beach, shops, restaurants.

Situated on a tree-lined street and a 5-minute walk to sandy beach, this summer home offers lovely entertaining spaces, an abundance of natural light and views of crystal clear Lake Huron — an ideal rental to share with family and friends.

Decorated in reds, whites and blues and an eclectic mix of antiques, quality linens and painted floors add to the charm of this well loved heritage cottage that brings guests back year after year.

Filled with antiques and hand-painted furniture discovered in local markets in and around Huron Country, these found pieces have been repurposed and paired with quality furnishings, crystal chandeliers and modern amenities creating beauty, warmth and function in this ultra-charming four season rental property.

Great stay Canada Day to Fourth of July

Kim was a great host. The house is cute, with lots of character. Location and view are amazing, you can't do better. View of the lake, 5 minutes to the beach AND five minutes to town. Porch is great. Kitchen was updated and everything seemed to work. Bathrooms worked well, beds were good. Didn't try the fire pit or grill but they looked nice. Only house challenge was that air-conditioning wasn't super effective for upstairs, but I think that's universal in old houses and even a challenge in my house that's 40 years old! (Also note I'm an AC snob and sleep hot). There were fans in each room and the AC kept humidity low so I'm really nit picking here.Area notes:Beach is great! Go in that water! It did become popular around 2-4 PM but it was Canada Day week.Black Dog Pub was great service and food. Rosie's ice cream was great. Check the local berry farms for what's in season.
