Cute little cottage! Very quiet and relaxing! Pictures on website are somewhat deceiving with the waterfront location. There is a large bank of rocks prior to getting close to the water and there are no wave sounds as this is located in the bay. The cottage was clean with nice towels in the bathroom, however the pillows were in protective pillow cases that made them feel like pillows you would find in a hospital (not comfortable). The kitchen was cute and supplied with many essentials for any cooking, however the kitchen was swarming with fruit flies that we noticed immediately upon arrival. The bathroom was small with only one mirror. It would be nice to add an additional mirror to the cottage for convenience of getting ready for an evening out. The overall location was very convenient to travel to nearby parks, stores, and restaurants. Cool fire pit with nice chairs and tables around the fire pit!
From the owner: "Lora, the rocks are there due to fluctuating water levels of the bay, these rocks are also in the photos online. Due to being in a bay, you will not have the same wave action as the ocean. We are replacing the “crinkly” pillow protectors with soft ones and will also be installing mirrors in the bedrooms. We have had some gnats these past couple weeks, which happens every year. Thanks for review."
Cozy little cottage, great location right by water and 10 minutes to stores.

From the owner: "Lori, we are glad you enjoyed your stay at North Bay Getaway! Right on the water is a beautiful view. Thank you for your review!"
The view just never gets old! The cottage is newly refurbished. There is pine paneling on the ceiling to match cupboards and doors. The beds are super comfy. The kitchen has high end appliances, and plenty of cookware. Great location on a quiet road of family cottages and homes. We hope to stay again!
From the owner: "So excited that you enjoyed our little slice of North Bay!! The lake view never does get old, one can sit out and just be mesmerized for hours by the water/trees/animals. We also love the quietness of the area. Would love to host you again in the future. Thank you for your review."
Everything was great but could use a couple softer pillows

It’s clear that there was no attention spared when creating this oasis. From the clean, completely new interior, to the linens and towels, to the comfy furniture, to the serene outdoor space. Everything was amazing! My son and I enjoyed our time here immensely and are looking to return next year. Thank you for sharing this wonderful haven!
