Hidden gem

Great little cottage in a fantastic area! Beach, food and ice cream within a stones throw. What more could you ask for? Lots to explore in the area and the cottage was the perfect place to relax after a full day. We will be back!

The Beach right beside was close for testing high in bacteria but it made us discover 'Cedar Island beach in Kingsville' and 'Sea cliff beach in Leamington' that were beautiful and safe to swim.

Wedding get away

We booked this cottage to have a place to stay for our friends wedding. It was a quick 10 minute drive from the venue which was perfect for when my toddler danced too much and started to get cranky. It was a quick drive to get her bathed, a nice warm bottle and right to bed all in one short hour. Thank you for your hospitality’

The Monarch, aka “The Beehive” :)

My 4 year old loves bees and the sunny yellow interior had him immediately nicknaming it “The Beehive!” The location is perfect; ice cream a stone’s throw away, a restaurant open ‘til late, the splash pad, pirate ship playground, and beautiful beach all right outside. The cottage had everything we needed (except shower/bath soap, which we grabbed in town) and the fire pit was just right for s’mores. Host communication was quick and easy. We also loved the bunnies roaming, George the cat, and the million fireflies each night!

Cute Cottage

This was our second time staying in The Monarch cottage. It was perfect for our family of four. The kids also enjoyed being steps away from the park, splash pad, and beach.

This 2 storey cottage was lovely, bright, extremely clean and comfortable. Laura and Jason were easy to reach and accommodated all of our requests. They checked in regularly to ask if we needed anything, answered all our questions and made excellent recommendations for eateries and places to visit. The public beach and waterfront with restaurants is a 5 minute stroll. Nearby wineries offer fine dining alfresco and the town of Kingsville with its sophisticated and charming downtown strip is a scenic 25 minute drive; other nearby locations offer other delights. You can't go wrong with this property but do check for the mayfly season forecast to avoid the pesky invaders.

Family Getaway

We stayed in The Monarch cottage and it was a perfect fit for our family! Our kids (ages 4 & 7) loved having the splash pad and park across the street. There is a beach just down the hill from the park as well. The owners were super nice and very helpful throughout our entire stay. There is a spacious bedroom on the main floor that we used, and the kids loved having the loft as their own space! A great home base for our trip. We will definitely be back!

Weekend get away!

I had such an amazing experience at The Monarch this long weekend. The cottage was very nice and super clean upon our arrival. The hosts were super generous went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed to have the best weekend. There was a restaurant and ice cream stand right outside the cottage and being steps away from the beach made it even better! 10/10 would recommend:)
