Summary: We had a wonderful time at the Douglas Family property. The house was spacious and well stocked (from the kitchen to the games to the towels and seating available inside and out). The access to your own beach is outstanding and although the neighbors are all close, they were very friendly and welcoming. We had a rainy day, but it was so much fun doing puzzles and board games. Then we had a glorious weather day and went to Point Pelee in the morning, swam at our own beach all afternoon, and had a campfire in the evening. It was exactly what we were looking for over a long weekend. There are some nice upgrades with new windows, AC, and fans in every room. The beds were comfortable (even if some are classically squeaky cottage beds) and we had easy access to Wheatley for some last minute items. We really appreciated the separate drink fridge and plenty of space in the main fridge/freezer for our own food. Thank you! As our kids said in the guest book - we will be back! :)
