Close to Long Point Beach and with spectacular views of the inner bay, Cotes du Rowan is a bird watchers paradise. This restored century cottage complete with swimming pool is nestled in private and beautiful gardens in the village of Pt. Rowan. Its a ten minute walk to shops and restaurants. Need somewhere to unwind? Sometimes all it takes is a moment of connection to see the world differently. Your host will help you engage with local experts for historic, art and architecture walks, guided Forest walks and mushroom identifying hikes. Wellness activities feature Au Dela de Beau - Beyond Beauty massages services, aromatherapy, manicures, pedicures, yoga.....all tailor made for your group.
The gardens hold Carolinian species and rare trees, the house is full of original artwork - some for sale. Cotes du Rowan has 3 bedrooms (King bed, queen bed, double bed) 2 bathrooms and a heated swimming pool. There is a full kitchen, living room with fireplace, dining room and a library with a day bed for napping or meditation. A front sunroom is excellent for watching the sunset. Restore your bond with nature. Stroll through the mature gardens, relax in the heated outdoor swimming pool or simply sit on the hill's edge watching birds or boats and look for the neighborhood eagle. Its a short walk to shops and restaurants and a 10 minute drive to Long Point or Turkey Point beaches, hiking trails and wineries. Although the principle King bedroom and main bathroom are on the main floor, the house has steep stairs to the second floor with two bedrooms and a bathroom so may not be suitable for very young children or people who have some mobility challenges. The main floor library has a twin size day bed. Its private enough to be used as a bedroom. There is no UberEats but we have an Air Fryer!!

This place is amazing. The view across the lake is great and the pool was a perfect size and depth for us and our two kids. The house itself felt spacious and was so well stocked. They have literally thought of everything including two different types of coffee machine. Rasa and Marc are lovely too and were very helpful with suggestions of things to do and places to eat. We would definitely recommend Cote Rowan to others.

Mini vacation
We had a wonderful mini vacation at Cotes du Rowan. Marc and Rasa are amazing hosts. Very quick to communicate. The cottage had everything we needed. A full stocked kitchen, plenty of towels for pool and bathroom. The pool was kept very clean. My grandchildren from England practically lived in it. The grounds are wonderful to walk around with lots of plants and greenery to admire. The view of the lake was beautiful. We will return next year. Thankyou Marc and Rasa

Amazing - will be back!
Rasa and Marc are amazing hosts! Their cottage is well kept and equipped with ample space to have a lovely stay.They greeted us on arrival to show us around which was super friendly. They also had a thoughtfully curated welcome basket with local snacks, beverages and goods which we thoroughly enjoyed.The view was great to enjoy both the water and sunsets with well tended gardens that made it feel very lush and tropical. The pool was warm so even our baby could enjoy the water. The kitchen had everything you could possibly think of to cook bother indoors and outdoors on the grill (including various spices, great non-stick pans, variety of coffee/tea). The bathrooms were well stocked with high-end soaps/shampoos/air sprays and plenty of bath and pool towels. Anything we needed, Rasa and Marc were quick to help with. We'll definitely be back.

Rasa and Marc couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful during our stay. They thought of every possible need that we might have. We opened a drawer or cupboard and voila, there it was. This cottage is full of character and is decorated beautifully. We especially enjoyed the heated pool and the gardens! We would highly recommend a booking at this cottage!

Cote Du Rowan- is a lovely wine indeed.
Cote Du Rowan- was everything we were looking for and more in a vacation. It was spacious inside, clean, artfully decorated, beautiful outdoor swimming space and view of the lake. It was all and all wonderful. Rasa and Mark (maybe Marc? :)), were welcoming and kind, but also gave us complete privacy during our stay. Very respectful and congenial.

Tranquility
Amazing stay, quiet, beautiful and close to nature. Peaceful town. Incredible hosts, clean house with all the amenities and comfort. The pool was warm even on cold days. The house was lovely and very welcoming. Gorgeous garden around the house, they even bring in a couple of goats to eat some of the vegetation on the hill which was an absolute thrill for us. Would definitely go back again.

Cotes du Rowan - Amazing!
Cotes du Rowan is a fantastic place with absolutely stunning views of Long Point inner bay. A great place for an early fall girls retreat to de - stress! The gardens were a magical place to wander, and we found out that the owners keep the pool open, warm and clean as long as possible!!!
The house was so clean, beds comfortable with high end sheets and duvets. The kitchen is truly well equipped for cooking gourmet meals, and we also found fresh market produce from the Port Rowan Harbour market.
Rasa and Marc are very special hosts . Not only did they give us a basket of locally produced goodies, snacks and...yes that included beer and wine . They also let us use their Long Point Provincial park pass.
We were pleasantly surprised by how much there is to do in this area. from visiting vineyards, breweries, golf, historic walking trails and Great shopping in Port Rowan!
Definitely will be back with our families!

Peaceful Perfection!
Cotes du Rowan is absolute magic! There are not enough words to express how amazing this cottage is. The view of Lake Erie brings a calm, that any water lover will understand. The gardens and pathways make you feel as if you’ve been swept away to a far off land. The cottage itself was so comfortable and felt like home the minute you walked in. The pool was a dream was always the perfect temperature/clean. Rasa and Marc have thought of every little detail, to make this place beyond wonderful. They made themselves available for anything we needed and were beyond welcoming! There is no doubt, we will be back!!!
