The perfect getaway
This cottage is perfect for a mini getaway. We enjoyed the welcome gift and the small touches. The indoor outdoor games were fun, the record player added a nice touch. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped to cook our meals in. It helped to have the cooking essentials (oils, spices and seasonings already in the cupboard). The sunsets and sunrises were amazing and the family pass for Point Pelee was a thoughtful touch. The boardwalk and lookout towers were worth the visit. We can’t wait to come back!

Great place with beautiful views
My wife and I stayed here for a few days in July and loved it. If you are looking for a nice quiet house on the water you can’t get much better than here. It’s a short drive from point pelee as well which was nice. The deck overlooking the water was great to relax on and have a fire in the chimnea. Would recommend!

Very Relaxing
Clean and very well equipped property on the lakefront. Close to town but far enough away to be extremely quiet. We enjoyed a lot of local fresh fruit and vegetables. Picking up fresh Pickerel in Wheatley was a bonus. For dog owners, there is a wonderful off leash dog park close by. All in all a great stay.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Cottonwood Lake Houz as soon as we saw it. We have a lot of fond memories of this place that we'd like to share with you.

Whether it is waking up in the morning to the sounds of birds & water breaking against the rocks, spending tranquil evenings sitting on the deck by the Chiminea sipping a cocktail, roasting marshmallows by the firepit, playing board games or watching TV by a roaring fire from the Woodstove; these are only a few memories you will experience!

Cottonwood Lake Houz is equipped with a fully functional kitchen that you will enjoy cooking in. Appliances include a Keurig coffee machine, dishwasher, fridge, electric stove, oven, microwave, toaster and an air fryer.

Work effectively and efficiently if you must by using the free high speed Wi-Fi service, the difference being you can do so from sitting on the deck by the water!

What makes this property unique

Modernized to offer all the necessary amenities plus luxuries for the ideal home-away-from-home.

Enjoy long walks on East Beach Road down to Hillman Creek while watching a stunning array of birds of different species.

Take in the tranquil views of Lake Erie from the deck or retreat inside to the peaceful solitude of life on the water.

When adventure strikes, you have plenty to choose from; Pelee National Park, Seacliff Beach, Pelee Island, Wine Country, and Craft Breweries are only minutes away by road!
