My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Super clean and thoughtfully decorated. Very pleasant and quiet neighbourhood. Excellent communication with host. Thanks again for having us!
The property was wonderful and all the little details were taken care off. Great communication with Michelle, close enough to walk to the beach but not so close you were in the middle of everything. Would recommend this property for a quiet getaway
We had a great time staying in Michelle’s cottage. The cottage had everything we needed and was very clean. We really appreciated the beach passes. We loved the backyard and had a fire. The location of the cottage was amazing, we walked to the beach, restaurants and stores. We would definitely stay at Michelle’s cottage again! Thank you.
We loved that the neighborhood was quiet and walkable.Our favorite part was the backyard - a serene place with flowers, fenced in private and with a grill and fire pit. We were able to purchase firewood nearby for 5.00 a bundle and had a fire every night. There were solar lights that came on a twilight and we could also plug in lights that beautifully surrounded the fence. Also, Michelle, the owner, was responsive to any questions within minutes. Her mother lives across the street and was so friendly and helpful. We had fun shopping in downtown Ridgeway and purchased our meals at a nearby grocery story and a convenient wine store.
Very clean and a lot of amenities around. The host was easy to communicate with and amazing. Had a nice and relaxing weekend. Really enjoyed our time here!

Liked: Check-in
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
Location is the main point of the cottage: walking distance from the beach and few local shops / restaurants.
The cleaning could have been better: there was a lot of cobwebs everywhere, especially in the bathroom.
Finally our first morning there was a lot of ants everywhere in the kitchen: we had to buy anti-ants products. This wasn’t disclosed to us when we checked in and came as a surprise.
Un énorme merci à vous ,vous êtes vraiment attentifs à vos hôtes.
Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir et nous recommandons vos chalets : on peut y aller les yeux fermés : que du pur bonheur !!!!
