General overview

Our home is located on the shores of Lake Erie, one of the Great Lakes of America, in the middle of the wine country of South Western Ontario. The views from the Bluff, 70 ft above the lake, are amazing and we have a back porch and a deck to enjoy the views. The property has its own beach, 90 stairs below the ground level. Some of the close attractions in the area are: The EPIC wine trail with over 20 wineries, restaurants, breweries and distilleries, a long public beach and Colchester marina - 4 min drive, Pointe Pellee provincial park ( parallel 42 and the southern most point of Canada, Pellee Island (ferry access), 2 historical towns: Kingsville and Amherstburg within 20 min drive, lots of conservation areas with public access. The border crossing city of Windsor is 40 min away, and the Ambassador Bridge connects Windsor, Canada with Detroit USA and the flight hub of Detroit Airport. For further attractions, the city of Toronto and Niagara Falls are 3.5 hours drive away. On a clear day, you can see across the lake Putin bay, in Ohio, Pellee island and other small islands. The amazing intertwine of the backyard’s old trees, water and the sky changes with every season and offers an unforgettable vista, from this quiet and unique corner of the world.

The space

It’s a 2 levels, newly renovated, contemporary designed home, with 1 master bedroom + 1 bathroom upstairs, open concept gourmet kitchen/ living room, 1 office/ bedroom + bathroom on the main floor.

Guest access

The house is ideal for a Romantic get away for one couple. However, it can accommodate up to 4 persons, as the office downstairs has a sofa bed .

Notes

There is no fencing around the property. Accessing the private beach requires taking down the 90 stairs in the backyard. The public beach and marina are 5 min drive away, with stairs from the parking lot.

Lumi  

Hi! We are a Canadian couple with children who have left the nest. We love travelling, and enjoy new experiences, foods and cultures. Our Lakeside designer home is on the shores of Lake Erie, in the middle of the wine country of Southern Western Ontario and close to the Detroit border crossing to the U.S.A. This house is used as a short term rental and therefore, I available wiry a few months notice. The Lakeside house is our vacation lake house, located on the same area, only 15 min away from our permanent home. This house is available when we travel away. We are quiet and mindful travellers, who appreciate the hospitality when it's offered and take pride in taking care of the homes we visit, like of our own. We travel as a couple most of the time but sometimes we might have another couple joining us. Lumi is a Physics teacher and Scott is an IT manager. We both can work remotely.
