My Wife and I stayed for 6 nights with our two daughters (3 & 4) in order to escape our house while it was being put up for sale and shown to potential buyers.
The location is wonderful, tucked away in a very private forrested area full of narrow roads and many trails perfect for bike rides and our morning walks. It's a 3-4 minute walk to a very private stretch of beach. Worth noting, it was moderately busy in grand bend while we visited, however the beaches near the house were almost empty - a plus if you value escaping large crowds.
The house itself is brand new, tastefully decorated with plenty of cottagy nuances. It's set back quite a bit from the road and features a nice rear outdoor space with children's jungle gym, fire pit, plenty of stone patio, outdoor showers and a nice deck with outdoor dining - we enjoyed All of these spaces over the week, our kids especially enjoyed the jungle gym. And the kids play area inside the garage was perfect for activities like coloring and painting.
The inside of the house is wonderfully decorated with comfortable and well built furniture , a stunning kitchen and all the appliances you will need and plenty of bedrooms (2 of them had built in bunks, and one of these rooms also had a Murphy bed - these rooms are a dream for big families with plenty of kids ). The house features plenty of storage, a foosball table and a nice lower wet bar with a walk out to the backyard.
All-in-All we had a wonderful stay - the only drawback that i can find with the property.is that 2 out of 3 bathrooms only have bathtubs, and 1 has a shower - but full disclosure, It was actually a welcome change soaking in a tub for the first time in years - so depending on your preferences, this may not even be a drawback at all.
If your traveling with kids and looking for a family friendly retreat for kids, cousins, aunts and uncles or grand parents - I would highly recommend this home.
