This is not your typical cottage! We aren't on acres of secluded forest or directly on the water (we don't have that kind of dough) but this bungalow won't disappoint!

We offer 1100 sqft of cute and cozy getaway! I like to think of it as the front of a mullet! We are the more serious section ahead of party central Grand Bend, the back end! Still accessible to the party, only 15 minutes away, but perfect for a quieter, low key retreat with 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom! And we have a hot tub!

The space
I could wax poetic about the beauty and serenity and blah blah blah but I don't want to bore you to tears. It's pretty, it's peaceful and it gets you away from the rat race and drudgery of home in the city. We are not a luxury, grey and tan hotel, but we do have our charm! And we are in the country so yes, there may be a bug or two and yes, you may not be able to take 2 hour long hot showers under a cascading rain shower head but you left all that in the city, why do you want it here? You come here for quiet, peace and relaxation, especially in the hot tub (PLEASE DO NOT GO IN FULLY CLOTHED) or by the fire. And yes, you gotta drive at least 10 minutes to Lake Huron but you drove at least an hour to get here so is 10 minutes that bad??

NB: We are country so we use septic. Please don't be flushing anything but waste and toilet paper! A septic system can be sensitive and is super expensive to repair/replace and we cannot afford that!

Guest access
Like Ontario, this bungalow is Yours to Discover! You aren't sharing the space during your stay but we do have neighbours! So please no ragers, loud tomfoolery or yodelling, especially at night! My fragile nerves cannot handle neighbours calling in the middle of the night to yell at me and the municipality will shut us down! Please see boring but important information below...
