Weekend Away
We enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were adequate for our needs. The large deck is a nice place to sit and enjoy the view of the lake.

Just going to Pt. Pelee for birdwatching
Definitely not enough screens on windows and they were hard to open. No screens on doors so there was little ventilation nor exposure to beautiful surroundings outside. Beautiful views from the big living room windows but no chairs or tables nearby.Host did not allow us to have any visitors which should have been in the listings. Even wrote to ask for a visitor for an hour and no response. Rude.

Steep Stairs - be prepared
Arriving at night could make it difficult to find. Little to no lighting. Be prepared for steep stairs, if you have luggage, you will want to lock the screen door open before hauling your luggage up the staircase. The door opens toward you and there is little space to stand while opening the door and it could be easy to lose your step. More steep steps when entering the entry way. The overall space is wonderful. Clean and the washer and dryer was a bonus. You will need to bring your own hair dryer, shampoo and body soap. If you need to Iron clothes, there is no Iron provided. Overall I loved my stay. The views were nice, the outdoor seating area was an enjoyable place to sit and enjoy the evening.

Amazing View!
We really enjoyed our stay in the loft! It was small but perfect for the two of us. We came for a 3 day getaway to rest and relax and this was the perfect place! The only issue was that we could not log on to the wifi with our laptops. Our phones connected just fine though. The beautiful view out of the floor to ceiling windows and off the deck was so peaceful! And Frank was quick to address any needs we had. Great stay!

Love the location!
Spacious, quiet, well equipped, affordable and scenic location surrounded by farm land but only a few minutes drive to the city. Host responded quickly to the few questions we had. Terrific green space as well as the deck were great for relaxing and enjoying the view of the lake.

Quaint getaway
Everything we needed was provided.
We had a nice, quiet, private and comfortable vacation.
I would only suggest that even travel sized shampoo/conditioner are provided to get you through the first day, then you can go buy some. Overall it was a very nice stay at an affordable price. The tremendous views were the best part of the trip. Beautiful!

Gotta Loft It !!!! hahaha
Very comfy - private - lake views change every day - awesome - the owner was especially concerned about our comfort during a really nasty storm and offered other accommodations if we needed it because there were tornado warnings in the area. Thank goodness it didn't come to that - a short power outage but we had the bbq so it was all good. Thank you very much Frank and hope to do it again. Also a special thank you to Suzie for helping us work out a few internet problems. Sincerely, Chris, Linda and Tucker (who didn't mind the stairs) and it was great to have the water close enough to jump in whenever we wanted to cool off.

Loft cottage
It was ok. Things we liked:
View
Proximity to local beach, Point Pelee ( owner left a pass) , Pelee Island
Things that could be improved:
We brought our own sheets and glad we did. In the info booklet, it says AC and a fire pit , but those must be for the main cottage downstairs.. the loft is VERY hot even with a ceiling fan, a fan for the bedroom and our own fan.
The fridge bumps into the washing machine so you can’t open it all the way.
It could use a deep clean.. it was “surface clean” though.
The entryway can be difficult, as to open the door, You have to step back down the stairs.
It was ok. Not fantastic and not terrible.
Great location. Beautiful grounds. Fantastic view. Very private

Amazing views!
I gave this property 4 stars but for a few details would be a five. The bathroom is OK but not as clean as it should be for a commercial property. The air conditioning did not cool kitchen & bath ( so we brought a fan with us so was not too bad) the sofa is very comfy but there’s no coffee table to lay your drink or cup down. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and the outdoor space was amazing. An extra umbrella for the sitting area would have been appreciated.The Wifi was really spotty. If you’re not able-bodied this property is not for you. The stairs to the apartment is very steep and does not have an outdoor light. But in spite of the lack of detailing we give it a 4 Because of the view and outdoor space.

Soft place to land
I spent a very relaxing week at the Loft. Everything was supplied linens towels. All I had to do is bring clothes and food. Lake was right in front of the cottage. Up on a hill and rocks but nice scenery. I had my own private deck lots of chairs and a BBQ. Was so quiet at night. Thank you for a beautiful week

Beautiful place, great host!
Staying in second level lost, on a massive farm, 20 mins from the national park, and stones throw from the ferry ride to a beautiful island… what’s there not to like!!
Apart from a few hiccups with check-in and the internet (which were out of their control)… our stay was close to perfect.
Frank, the host is great and very proactive in taking care of things and making sure we were happy given some of the issues.
He even allowed us to charge our electric car, which was very generous!!
We are definitely coming back!
Unfortunately, the patio umbrella was already broken when we got there, and we mentioned it within our first 1/2 hour of check-in. Were told twice it would be replaced "tomorrow", but it never was, so we had no protection from the sun. Portable A/C only cools bedroom and living room. Kitchen and bathroom are hot. Need to bring an adapter if you want to use the hairdryer (not up to Canadian standards). Overall, nice view and relaxing but some amenities listed are not available.
