Michigan Family exploring the Georgian Bay
Family from Michigan had a great 4 night stay at this wonderful cottage on 12 Mile Bay. The view from the windows are great! Hummingbirds and Loons everywhere. Communication with the host was excellent and the cottage interior was wonderful for the family to enjoy meals and relax in the morning and the evening. We took a day trip to canoe to Moon River Falls – about 16Km drive away to rent canoes at Moon River Cottages (highly recommended). We also took another day trip to Parry Sound to explore the town and take a jet boat tour of the islands. We used the onsite canoe at the cottage to paddle around the near the cottage and even though it was early June we braved the cold waters for a quick swim and then warm up in the sauna. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed for cooking family meals and the large Weber grill was perfect for grilling burgers outside. Entire family enjoyed the place and got to unplug as much as needed. Although there is good wifi and a cell phone tower about 1km away, so if you need to stay connected or have entertainment that works too. Definitely recommend this rental!

Peaceful and gorgeous
I surprised some friends visiting from the UK with a weekend at Westwind cottage, and we all loved it from the moment we pulled in. Beautiful location, perched right over the water. The stars are incredible. Sauna, canoes, paddle boards, kayaks, huge decks, swimming dock, fire pit, plus all the comforts of a well-loved family cottage. Very quiet at night and feels quite remote, but with friendly neighbours a 10-minute canoe ride down the bay. Paul was so helpful and made our stay really nice.

Fantastic holiday!
We loved this cottage! It's spacious, comfortable and equipped with all you could possibly need. The location is beautiful and swimming amazing. We made great use of the paddle boards and kayaks to explore Twelve Mile Bay. The owner, Paul, was quick to answer questions/offer great suggestions. Highly recommend!

Quintessential Canadian Experience
We were looking for a wilderness experience without sacrificing comfort. Our stay at the Westwind did not disappoint. The Westwind cottage is built into and around the natural features of a rustic shoreline. The rock, water and trees are integrated into the construction and build of this cottage. The cottage overhangs the shoreline and provides an infinite attachment to the water of 12 Mile Bay. Our family loves the water, and this was a real treat. The steps and walk paths leading from one structure to another, i.e., (bunk house, sauna, firepit, docks tree house, cottage, etc.) are scribed into and incorporate the granite boulders and trees. There is even a granite boulder that intentionally protrudes into the living room of the cottage! The property itself, sits at the end of a sparsely traveled lane, and road traffic noise, is non-existent. The quiet privacy of and expansive shoreline provided the stress free, relaxing getaway we were seeking. The cottage interior and furnishings we and charming. The large single paned windows provide long views and provide ample natural light. Our goal was to disconnect from the outside world. We brought enough food for our entire stay, swam off the dock, read books and paddled the bay. If you appreciate the beauty of Georgian Bay, you will appreciate this cottage. The host, Paul P. was friendly, accommodating and attentive. We will be booking again.

Great overall
The cabin was cute and the surroundings were very pleasant. Had some issue with water pump not working properly but the owner had good communication and the issue was fixed after half a day.

Fishing
My son and I booked this for a week fishing trip. The cottage was clean and neat upon arrival. Dock worked out great for our boat. There was power available within 100’ for charging trolling motor batteries. The kitchen worked out great for our needs. Paul was available and helpful with any questions that we had.
