My wife and I and another couple came to Amherstburg for a friend's retirement party and a trip to Point Pelee. We arrived early, but everything was ready for us. The house has been redone in a pleasant blend of historic and modern furnishings. Everything was neat and clean. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well-supplied with supplies and appliances. Ben, the host, was attentive and responded quickly to questions (e.g., we ran out of coffee pods and he dropped some off almost immediately). The house is located in the center of the historic town with excellent access to food and drinks. We had a great time and have no reservations or concerns in recommending the Stone Cottage.
