Quiet cabin 12 minutes from Crystal Beach - enjoy the beach, not the crowds!
MONTHLY RENTALS AVAILABLE OCTOBER TO MAY. Our little oasis is licensed by the Town of Fort Erie and is 12 minutes from Crystal Beach in a residential neighbourhood so you can enjoy the beach and then leave the crowds behind! We have been open since 2019 and a superhost since 2020 and you can read our favourable reviews if you follow the links on our website https://www.familyeducationgroup.com/cabin-on-an-acre-retreat/ . We live next door to the west and our son lives next door to the east. We'll leave you alone but are available if you have any issues or questions.
The reason for implementing the damage deposit is that, every year, guests flush items down the toilet causing costly plumbing repairs.
Nearby, there are restaurants, supermarkets, butchers, a seafood market and a small brewery nearby as well as the Friendship Trail for cycling and walking and Old Fort Erie for history buffs. Old Ridgeway has charming stores and a farmer's market from May to October and Safari Niagara is a wonderful zoo right here in Fort Erie. We are a 25 minute drive to wine country or 20 minutes to Niagara Falls or the Niagara Glen for hiking. We have 2 beach passes for our guests to use. If you require additional day passes, go to the Town of Fort Erie site for Bay Beach Admission information
Our license # is STR2020-0026.
THE CABIN
A small, open plan living space with wood and natural gas fireplaces, tasteful furnishings and privacy. Relax on the deck, have a fire or chill inside with a movie on the smart tv (Netflix & Prime only, no cable or satellite channels). The 2nd bedroom still has one wall with the original log cabin finish. There are no sofabeds or cots.
The main room has a dining table and four chairs and a bar height counter with 2 stools. There are 3 large modular leather armchairs and a loveseat in front of the TV. Kitchen is equipped with new electric range, coffee maker, kettle, toaster, pots & pans, storage bowls, utensils and dishes. Please wash your dishes before leaving. The BBQ has a grill plate for fish or veggies.
The AC unit in the master bedroom can cool the cabin if you leave the blinds closed during the day and the floor fans on. In winter, there are space heaters in each room. Once the foliage is out in summer, the yard is quite lush, making this a lovely getaway. You'll hear songbirds and woodpeckers, see fireflies in late June and July and catch a glimpse of chipmunks scampering around.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Zooz getaway
We rented this beautiful little cottage for a long weekend getaway with my daughter, mother and niece. Cabin was very beautifully decorated and clean. Short drive to zooz and a fun getaway for the kids. My daughter and niece loved being outside and collecting acorns and sticks in the large yard. Would stay here again 😊

Can’t wait to come back!
We thoroughly enjoyed our 10 day stay here with Diana and Dan. The property allowed us to seriously relax yet be close to everything we wanted to do. We appreciated how cozy it was inside and our kids enjoyed the open living space. The kitchen is well equipped for all your cooking needs which made our bbq nights even more enjoyable. We will definitely be back to enjoy the space in the winter next!

Great stay.
Great stay, the wood burning fireplace was awesome! Wishing the stove worked better.. took a long time to cook just eggs. Room darkened blinds and extra blankets would have been nice too. But overall we enjoyed our stay.
