Well thought out little rental cottage
Our group of 4 ladies stayed at Shells and Oaks for two nights. All the little details were present in the cottage. From the well-prepared kitchen and stocked tea and coffee cupboard, to the fire pit outside with ample seating. The beds were comfy, and my pullout couch was a good place to crash after a day of winery and the Pinery. Grand Bend is a lovely place to visit, and Shells and Oaks cottage is the perfect place to relax in between excursions and catch up with friends.

The perfect family getaway !
We had the best time here ! This place was close to everything like the main strip at grand bend, the pinery and everything in between. The actual space is equipped with everything needed and very child friendly. The host was very helpful with places to go and the place itself was very clean and comfortable. It was the perfect family getaway and would definitely come back !
