We had an amazing stay at the cozy cabin! The beach was just 5 minutes away, making it perfectly convenient for watching sunrise and sunsets. Traveling with our 14-month-old, we felt completely safe and comfortable and the space was very baby-friendly. Gisele and Vik were thoughtful and welcoming hosts, making sure we had everything we needed. We made so many wonderful memories as a family and would love to come back again!

We had such a wonderful and peaceful stay at this cottage! 🌿 Everything was on point, from the clean and cozy setup to the overall quiet atmosphere that made it perfect for a relaxing getaway. The beach is just a 5-minute walk, and other essentials were conveniently close by, which made our trip even smoother. My husband and I truly enjoyed quality time together here and created beautiful memories. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a calm and refreshing escape!

We had an amazing stay! The property was spotless, private, and beautifully maintained. We loved the thoughtful touches throughout the cabin—it truly had everything we needed. The outdoor sitting areas were so cozy, and we had a blast playing badminton. The short walk to a lovely beach was the cherry on top. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and made sure every detail was perfect. Highly recommend!

Gisele and Vic were wonderful hosts. The cabin was cute, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beach, just a two-minute walk away, was absolutely beautiful. The kayaks are fun and the perfect way to get out on the water. The firewood bundle was amazing—packed with plenty of wood, kindling, and paper, making it the best value you’ll find. The area is peaceful and quiet, yet close to lots of nearby attractions. A perfect getaway spot!

Gisele and Vic were lovely hosts! Gisele gave us a warm welcome and let us know about all the fun things to do when we arrived. Vic very kindly started a fire for us in the evening while we were away. The cabin itself is also gorgeous. There's a bunch of fun things to do on and around the property.

Our time at Gisele's cabin was very nice. Gisele and her husband was so hospitable to us. They were kind by giving lots of wood and kindling for our campfire after we bought a bundle of wood on the Hipcampers app. They were very helpful telling us where to go for a restaurant to eat. We had alot of fun kayaking and riding their bikes on the hiking trails. The washroom was very clean and the cabin. I will be coming back next year for sure with a friend or my husband. You will enjoy your time just like us. Thank you Gisele and your husband for all your help during our stay for the weekend of August 29 to 31, 2025.

What a gem! Very comfortable, and beautifully styled little cottage/bunkie. You can tell a lot of care went into it.
Stay here and you'll be a 3 minute walk (literally) to a quiet beach/picnic spot. The towns are a short drive away for supplies, but far enough away to enjoy quiet, secluded activities like lounging on soft grass under tall trees, cooking on a campfire and clear stargazing.
Gisele's hospitality was wonderful! Before we even arrived, we felt very welcome. Highly recommended if you're passing through the Niagara region.

Vic welcomed us when we arrived and was so nice. We happened to book on a rainy day, but everything still turned out great. They made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed throughout our stay. The hosts are so kind, and the place itself is beautiful, just a few minutes’ walk from the beach. It was fully equipped with everything we needed, and everything, including the washroom, it was very clean. Would recommend this place!

Really enjoyed my stay and ended up staying an extra day. Cute, clean and has everything you need. Also close to a nice sandy beach as well as parks and volleyball nets. The hosts are lovely people and very accommodating. Would definitely recommend.

Gisele and Vic are the most welcoming people you could imagine! The cabin was clean and cozy, perfect for our long weekend trip. If I could give them 100000 stars as a review I would! Generous, welcoming- all around amazing! We will definitely be returning to do some more exploring! Perfect reset in nature, but close enough to stores etc. if you need anything!

My girlfriend and I stayed at Gisele’s in August of 2025, and I can whole heartedly recommend this to others. I’ve travelled the world, and hospitality like this is rare. The care that Gisele and Vic put into this cabin/bunky make it a truly rare gem. The thoughtfulness of every detail is something that is incredibly hard to find.
The accommodations are immaculate and the convenience is wonderful. You are steps to the beach, there are beautiful bike trails to take advantage of, and the property is quiet and beautiful.
I’m approaching 40 now, so the idea of traditional camping is starting to sour. This is the perfect in between from camping, and the full expense of renting a cabin. Keep in mind that the bunky is beside their home, but they are respectful and there is plenty of privacy. The bonus this brings for having power and bathroom amenities makes it well worth it.
We’ll definitely be booking here again.

I would highly recommend staying at this wonderful little cabin retreat!! It has everything including a lovely wooded and private area, a fire pit, BBQ, sink/washing up area, a deck and covered gazebo, a hanging lounge chair, plenty of seating and table, a separate bathroom/shower and even a little shed with an extra fridge/freezer and room to store my bicycle and keep it dry. I also appreciated the extra amenities such as pots and pans, BBQ utensils, lighter, badminton racquets, balls and net, dishes, cutlery, coffee maker and complimentary tea and coffee. The little cabin was quaint and very comfortable and had a/c, a fan, a heater, a mini fridge, a Murphy double bed with good mattress and the possibility of a fold out cot for extra sleeping space. Gisele is a wonderful hostess, friendly, helpful but also respectful of her guest's privacy and very willing to lend bicycles or kayaks. I also loved the area including the beautiful beach just a few minutes walk away, the lovely neighbourhood and the bicycle trails just a short distance away. You could easily bicycle to Port Colborne, the Welland Canal and various beaches around the area. I loved my time there and will definitely be back!!

Me and my spouse recently stayed at Giselle's place and we had a wonderful time. It was our first time to try cabin camping and we had fun! The cabin was very cozy with air-condition, well-equipped with comfortable bed, small ref, dining table/chairs. The place, inside and out was well-maintained, very clean and private. They have composting toilet (clean and odorless) and shower. Everything we needed were provided. We enjoyed our bbq and played badminton. The place is near Crystal Beach.
Giselle was friendly and helpful. She always replied to my inquiries.
So if you're looking for a quiet and secluded get-away, we're recommending Giselle's place. Just 2 hrs away from Scarborough. Thank you Giselle for the nice experience.

We stayed at this cottage for 2 nights and our experience was really good. The area is so beautiful, close to wild, a 4mn walk from the lake, 10mn drive from downtown. We enjoyed kayaking, beach, badminton and Port Colborne is cute. It was so relaxing. The hosts are so welcoming, and we could ask them anything.
We'll come back.

Hey,
Kelly and I loved staying at Giselle and Vics tiny cottage. AC, comfy bed, bbq, covered deck, firepit, washroom. People make the visit as well. They showed a lot of class and were professional in their approach. They are just really nice people! They charmed us! lol Steps away from the beach, less than 2 km away from the Reeb house on hwy 3, and a 15 dollar uber from Port Colborned. Great time! Thank-you!

Cabin close to Lake Erie and Trails
The time we spent here was wonderful! The hosts are kind, responsive, and will make your experience memorable.
The yurt is lovely, clean, and well appointed. Mornings and evenings watching the wildlife and having campfires were wonderful family bonding time for my family.
Drinking water is provided as well. The washroom facilities are everything you need, clean, and comfortable.
Can't wait to visit again!

Wonderful stay! Gisele and Vic were excellent hosts. The cabin was super cute and the AC was a lifesaver during the 29°C days. Perfect little getaway from the city, with the beach just a minute’s walk away. We wish we could’ve stayed longer and will definitely be back for a longer visit next time. 100% recommend!

We highly recommend this site for the location and the lovely hospitality of the hosts. This place allowed us to feel closer to nature and get us off our phones while still having the comfort of air conditioning, a bathroom, and shower. We were relaxing too much to take the kayaks out but the offer was made to take us to some nice kayaking spots which was very much appreciated. We did however get in a lovely evening bike ride with the well-maintained bikes! There was plenty of fun to be had just at the campsite itself by the campfire where we played badminton and bocce ball and at the walking distance beach. It was a short distance to Niagara Falls for a day trip as well. Thank you very much for our lovely stay!

We loved this cabin and property! What a perfect summer getaway! Hosts greeted us upon arrival and were very helpful and accommodating in responding to our needs. The cabin is sweetly decorated and well-stocked with mugs, glasses and dishes, and coffee, tea and water. We especially loved the cabin's AC, because the weather was hot and humid. We also loved the cabin's privacy; the cabin is off to the side of the main house, beyond a high fence. The bathroom, a short walk from the cabin, had a shower, which was a nice bonus.
We had coffee on the deck each morning, listening to the birds and watching the chipmunks do acrobatics in the trees (the property has many lovely trees!). We cooked eggs and bacon on the BBQ, which had a grill insert that did the job perfectly.
The cabin is a short walk to a beautiful park and quiet beach on warm Lake Erie, where we sailed our blow-up boat and swam. The view from the beach is truly a sight to behold.
We also brought bikes and rode into Port Colbourne to watch the ships in the canal and have drinks and ice cream.
At night, we walked to the beach under an almost full moon, and also sat around the fire and watched the fireflies.
Overall, this is a beautiful property in a beautiful location with wonderful hosts.

This hidden gem is beyond perfect! What a beautiful and well supplied little cabin! My husband and I stayed for three amazing nights riding our bikes up and down the friendship trail, enjoying the quaint little seaside towns. Vic and Gisele are so hospitable and just amazing human beings. Thank you so much for everything! We cannot wait to return! This place is unmatched by any other place we have ever stayed. And the company was equally as wonderful

An absolute must-go! The most charming little cabin, literally two minutes away from the beach. The cabin is well equipped (mini-fridge, Keurig machine), with a lot of attractions around (badminton, pétanque, BBQ). There’s also a very convenient bike trail for a trip to the nearby town. We will definitely be back!
