Spent a few days at Pillar Point cottage with my wife. The place was perfect! Beautiful cottage inside and out. Couldn’t get any closer to the lake. Private deck for cooking and relaxing. Picnic table to sit at and enjoy beautiful sunsets. The hosts were very nice and a pleasure to talk to. They were very informative. Giving us alternate places to launch our boat in the area. Also a good location. Close to many attractions and very good dining. Two 👍👍! Thank you for your hospitality …. ✌️

Anniversary Weekend
Our stay at this charming cottage was so memorable! This is the place to go to experience a peaceful, quiet and relaxing stay. The cottage sits right by the lake and includes two kayaks, Adirondack chairs, a fire pit and boasts a spectacular view of Lake Ontario and such beautiful sunsets! 🌅 You can clearly see the stars too on a clear night ✨ The hosts were very welcoming and even provided some food like oatmeal and eggs. The cottage also has everything you need to cook or grill outside. We will be coming back for sure! Let this be your sign to book!!

Escape to the Lake
There is nothing like my yearly trip to Pillar Point with the beauty and serenity of Lake Ontario. Having my own cottage this summer down the road from family made it an excellent vacation. This location was perfect for its proximity to Windmill Acres as we were attending my niece’s wedding during our stay. If you like to cook at home, the kitchen had everything I needed. Thank Carol for being an excellent host!

Relaxing and Beautiful
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at this beautiful rental. It is a perfect location right on the water. The hosts provide all the amenities you need and were very thoughtful to provide a bottle of wine and cheese upon arrival. And, eggs and yogurt for breakfast along with a snacks, peanut butter, oatmeal, coffee and creamer, etc. I have stayed in several VRBO rentals over the years; this is the first that supplied so many extras for their guests. I highly recommend this cozy rental. (Oh, and the gorgeous sunsets.... just beautiful.). Perfect place to unwind.

The best little cottage on the lake!!
We greatly enjoyed our stay! Carol was very accommodating, had everything we needed ready for us. The cottage is beautiful, the view cannot be beat, full view of the lake right from the living room and the bedroom. The cottage is fully stocked with everything one might need, including coffee, water and local teas, tons of towels, extra blankets and bedding, s'more supplies and fire starting kit. The area is beautiful and quiet, lots of deer, bunnies and ducks for little ones to see. We went kayaking early in the morning as well (kayaks are provided). Will recommend this place to all of our friends and family!!

A lovely, peaceful getaway
The cottage was charming and comfortable. A gorgeous, serene location. We enjoyed a quiet, peaceful getaway for our anniversary-- exactly what we were looking for. Carol and Pete were fantastic hosts, helpful, welcoming and unobtrusive. The sunsets were stunning. We had fun riding the bikes (provided by hosts) along the lakeshore. If you are looking for a fun, quiet place to de-stress, this is perfect. Highly recommended!
