About this property

"Summer Made Simple". Refundable cleaning fees!"

  • Starting in August 2026, for guests who leave the home in pristine condition, the $99 cleaning fee will be manually refunded post-checkout."

    Dockside A has a more “cabin” vibe than summer cottage with beautiful muted lights, hardwood ceiling and walls. Great sunset views on Lake Erie on the west side of Pelee Island.

    Centrally located within walking distance of the Pelee Island ferry dock, Stonehouse 1891, Westview Tavern, the local museum, and the famous Pelee Island Winery Pavilion to name a few

    This cottage boasts an open concept kitchen/living room area with large island for entertaining after a wine tour or watching the game on the 60” smart tv

    But throw open the blinds in the morning and the lake views transport you from cottage country back to serene island life filled with golf carts, scooters, electric bikes in a relaxed traffic flow where everyone gives you the nod with a smile and a wave

Amazing place

Rhis was my first experience with a VRBO and I wouldn't have had a better experience. I would highly recommend this location on Pelee. Stunning views,, easy access, everything and more that we could have wanted. The owner was outstanding and extremely helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at Dawn’s place! I traveled with my wife, our baby, and my father-in-law, and the home was perfect for our family. It was very clean, comfortable, and well kept. The location was excellent — close to all the main activities on the island and just a short distance from the ferry, which made arrival and departure so convenient. Dawn was an excellent host — friendly, responsive, and very accommodating. We’d happily stay here again on our next visit!

We can recommend this property highly. It is spacious, light-filled and spotlessly clean. There’s a clear view of the lake with only the road intervening.The kitchen was extremely well equipped., more so than other cottages we have rented.Most impressive was the host’s communication. She answered any questions we had very promptly and in detail. She took the time to provide us with comprehensive information about food options that were available on the island so early in the season. We want to return for a longer stay during next year’s birding season with the hope of better weather.

We had an absolutely perfect weekend getaway at this charming cottage on Pelee Island! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The cottage is cozy, clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could possibly need. Whether you're sipping coffee on the deck, enjoying a glass of wine at sunset, or stargazing under the clear island skies, every moment feels magical.The location is unbeatable—peaceful, private, and just a short distance from the dock. We especially loved the natural surroundings and how quiet the island was; it felt like our own little slice of paradise. The hosts were incredibly kind, responsive, and full of great local tips, which made our stay even more enjoyable.If you're looking for a relaxing, off-the-grid escape with a touch of rustic charm and tons of heart, this is the place. We’re already dreaming about our next visit. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to unwind and truly disconnect.
