Incredible Location
Being on the beach was a huge plus, and the cottage did have room for all six of the adults in my group to get along comfortably. There were a few minor things that differed from the listing, but nothing that could spoil our stay. The house was quite clean but also had quite a few spiders - we seemed to be the first guests of the season so again, not a deal breaker. My group is already planning a return to the island, as this was our first time visiting and we loved it!

Pelee Island - Mermaid on Lorain
I have been going to Pelee Island since the 80's and this is the second stay at Mermaid on Lorain. The location on the Island is amazing with some of the best sandy beach front on the Island. The house is very nice and had a lot of the essentials. We look forward to going back next year!

Review
This was the second time my friends and I stayed at this cottage and we had a blast! The only thing that we had trouble with was the cleaning process at the end of our stay. My friends and I spent half of the day before and the morning of our check out date cleaning and we still somehow got charged with a cleaning fee. The only thing we forgot was to take out the garbage, which is a $10 fee but we also got charged another $30 for an hour of interior cleaning even when we had left the house cleaner than we received it. I understand the garbage charge but my friends and I should not have been charged that extra $30.

Nice weekend getaway
House as advertised. Rooms were big with air conditioners in the bedroom. Fit our family of six perfectly. Nice location and view of the water however there were lots of burs on the property so be cautious if you have little kids and make sure to wear shoes even on the beach. As many reviewers commented there were many black flies that bite. Also, you need to clean the house yourself and wash the bedsheets and towels before leaving so we brought our own sheets and towels to avoid this.
