Island time

Great cottage. Lots of special touches. Wonderful mattresses. Island water smells like sulfar so bring plenty of drinking water since it sells out fast at the store. Will book again! Great fishing too!

Weekend getaway

We enjoyed our first visit to Pelee Island. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Our cottage was cozy and cute, just perfect for our family. The wind was strong and did make our hikes to Fish point and the light house challenging. Otherwise it was a lovely weekend getaway. I would a longer stay!

Rustic Getaway

This cottage was just like the rest of Pelee, rustic and very simple. But on Pelee everything is that way. The location on the north shore was excellent and not far from anything. The best spot to visit was The Bakery a short 10 minute walk from the cottage. While the cottage was a bit tired it was comfortable and suited our stay on Pelee Island. If you want to un wind, un attach and have a very quiet and sleepy few days this is the place for you.

Barefoot holiday

Clean, nice property with large screened porch facing the lake and modern amenities, quiet and peaceful. Off season proved challenging since many advertised Pelee Island services and events were either unavailable or changed their hours of operation. Still, highly recommended!

Sweet Place on the North Shore!

We very much enjoyed our stay in the Barefoot Bungalow! Owners provided all info that we needed to know, and there was plenty of room for us. Cabin could easily accommodate six (there were just three of us). A very clean and happy place - I imagine ideal in summertime especially. One limitation - water flow is slow, hot water limited. Bring your own drinking water, as the well water has a strong taste to it.

Relaxing Vacation by the water

This property was perfect for our stay. The location on the North Shore can't be beat. We loved sitting on the deck and watching amazing sunsets every night. If we were not sitting by the water we were in the screened in porch watching the water. We rode bikes and walked every day. Our main focus was to chill out and this location was perfect. Not much traffic or noise. This little island has just enough things to do and just enough amenities. You feel like you are FAR away and truly get the Island experience. I will be coming back and staying at Barefoot Cottage in the future!

Location, location, location

Exactly what a quaint cottage should be. Situated on the lake shore, we enjoyed amazing sunsets and starry nights. The cottage was just what one wants in a quiet island retreat, spacious enough for our party of four adults yet cozy. Loved the screened porch, the deck for outdoor dining and the fire pit.

About the host

Hosted by Andrea & Alex

Host profile image
Alex grew up on Pelee Island’s west shore and his childhood summers revolved around lake activities. We met on the island, then got married on Pelee as we wanted to share this special place with our friends and family. When we had our two boys, we planned to make Pelee a part of their lives as well. We were excited to purchase the stone house and bungalow to give us a launching point for those moments, and also to share with guests to make their own. After purchasing the property, we learned Alex’s ancestor, Alexander McCormick was the original owner / builder of the stone house. We hope you and your family can build your own memories at Barefoot Cottages.
