Amazing little gem
This was our second time staying, and we had yet another wonderful stay! We love the little town of Amherstburg, and this cottage is the perfect location. Watching the ships is always a favourite, but the closeness to multiple nature areas is a bonus as well. We were able to enjoy some bird watching at Point Pelee and Holiday Beach. The cottage is kept very clean, the bed is really comfy, and the kitchen was super well stocked! We can't wait to come back!

Best Staycation EVER
Just absolutely perfect for what hubby and I needed. Megan was very responsive, the cottage was as perfect as it could have been. Scenery was great, Tim’s just a skip away, comfortable bed and lunging furniture - I claimed the chair by the fire all weekend. Would definitely stay here again

Didn't want to leave!
Exceeded expectations! The location is really a treasure. Very private and literally ON the water. Sitting on the deck watching the big ships is absolutely the best! The cottage is also fully stocked for cooking and the linens are excellent quality. The location is also super convenient... Just minutes to town, big box stores, grocery, and restaurants. We hope to be back!

Very nice weekend!
Cottage was adorable and essentials were well stocked. Easy check-in and the nights were very quiet. Sunsets on patio were gorgeous and it was great to watch the big boats go by on their way to Detroit. We also loved walking around Amherstburg, such a cute historic downtown. Little bit of confusion on the check out time and the water had a bit too much seaweed to swim, but would recommend the cottage to friends.

Another excellent stay
This was our second year staying at the Drifted Inn, and it was another wonderful time for our family. As always, the cottage is clean, cozy and comfortable. We had beautiful weather all week which let us take advantage of dinners on the deck, lots of fun on the little private beach, and beautiful sunset views. Thank you for another wonderful summer getaway. We have already booked for next year, and can't wait to return.

The property was very clean inside. There was construction next door everyday at 8am until 4pm. The doors are lacking as the allow spiders and mosquitos into the property and my husband and I were bitten many times. I shouldn’t need bug repellent indoors.
