About this property

Beautiful, clean 3 bedroom 4 min walk to the beach, splashpad & playground.

Very clean & well appointed.
Features your own porch view of the lake. Air conditioned & gas fireplace. Dining room seats 6 people. Washer and dryer.
1st bedroom = queen bed.
2nd bedroom = double bed.
3rd bedroom = double on bottom & twin bunk on top.
The charge per night includes 2 adults and up to 3 children under Additional adults $20 per person per night. Gas BBQ, and a fire pit. A very short walk for you & the kids to reach the playground, splash pad, beach and public restrooms (you can use our Little Tykes wagon).
This is a smaller beach.
Just adults? Head to "The Wreck" over looks the pier and the lake. Tour one or more of the numerous wineries within minutes of the cottage.
i.e. Paglione with their outdoor wood oven pizza's and gelato, Viewpointe, for an outstanding view of the lake. If you end up with a rainy day, take a 15 - 20 minute drive to Amhurstberg for some historic tours, or maybe check out scenic Kingsville for a little shopping and a selection of great restaurants. After enjoying the firepit you may want to relax on the front porch and listen to the lap of the waves. Pack light, we've thought of everything!
