The view was amazing!!!
A little help with the coffee maker in the morning would be helpful. Guests were making coffee and it wasnât very good!!!
A little protein would have been nice for breakfast.
Overall a good Air BnB with great views is the water, big lot size with direct access to the lake, private beach, quiet neighborhood and great place to watch sunset. Kitchen is stocked, plenty of seating options both inside and outside to watch the great views and outdoor covered BBQ as well. Indoor swimming pool, pool table and ping pong table is good for those planning a trip with family. Rooms are in decent shape and some are updated .. we stayed in the master bedroom and it had great views. Washroom needs renovation as it is very dated especially when there is a premium for master bedroom price. Breakfast is ok and should have more fruit options for sure .. even apples and bananas were missing ( both days were exactly the same breakfast options ) . Outdoor areas are good and well maintained though can be bit cleaner . Overall, it is a good property and hard to find such good stay options right on the water with great lake views. Would recommend for sure.
The entire experience was delightful! We met and made some new friends that made our evenings very enjoyable.
The only thing that was concerning was that the lock set to our room was about to fall off. We did our best to tighten, which got us through our stay, but it could use some attention. The other thing was that the lamp on the nightstand closest to the window was not working. We suspect that the power bar was broken, as the light was out on the power bar and we did check to make sure that the power cord was plugged into the wall.
Overall, we had a lovely stay, and we canât wait to stay again next time!! Thank you
P.S. Cindy is awesome!!
The room was nice and clean and had a nice view of the lake. Staff were helpful and friendly. Met some nice other guests there. Views are great. The indoor pool area was too hot to go into, but having an indoor pool was a nice feature.
The continental breakfast was very basic, and could be improved. We've had continental breakfasts in other inns, so not expecting anything too fancy, but it could be improved.
Property itself is located on the lake with a beautiful view. Grounds could use some upkeep and some outdoor furniture, stairs, and lower deck on the beach need some cleaning and maintenance.
Just spent two nights at this beautiful location. It's way more than a B&B and not quite a hotel. Set in what was either purpose built or was once a spacious mansion, the recently renovated facility is first class. Cyndie the caretaker and Mike the owner could not have been more friendly and helpful while being completely unobtrusive. Met some really nice other guests too. It's a ways out of the hubbub of Grand Bend, so it's very quiet and peaceful. I will definitely be staying here again and highly recommend it.
Proper was amazingly clean. With an awesome beach where there were less than three people in the entire zone. If you're looking for a calm escape this is your place. Don't miss it. I do need to say there weren't a lot of things that Expedia had said about this property being self-maintained. The breakfast was nothing what we were expecting. At least the eggs could have been warm. I wasn't expecting cold eggs from the refrigerator. We had to clean our own dishes. But, I guess if this was announced ahead of time, we would have come prepared for it. I also would like to recommend that the property spend some time cleaning all the spider webs on the stairs on the exterior seating and everywhere else. The stairs on to the beach were ridiculously much. There was a small little escalator, but when we asked the property manager, she said sorry this is not for the guests. Maybe they should make it a little bit more accessible. Other than that, the beach the site is to die for!
The property is a bit dated. The inside was clean and tidy. The outside was ok needs a good clean. Patio chairs and windows not very clean . Cobwebs everywhere. The beach area was lovely but also needs a good clean. The staircase going down to the water needs to desperately be replaced and one area of deck is dangerous as no stringer under boards at all. Would be a beautiful spot if some renos were done. Also not really a breakfast that you would normally get in an BnB. More continental than anything.. The poor girl is taking care of this massive property herself. Definitely needs to have another staff member during the day to help. Way too much for one person to keep up. The house is massive.
What a wonderful stay at this stunning location. Only downside, for us, as seniors, was the stairs down to the beach. Cindi, the onsite manager was so kind and accommodating...she took us down to the beach on the lift and picked us up when we were ready to return. Spectacular beach, which we had all to ourselves. We would definitely return.
The landscaping and the grounds were exceptional. The room however, was small and the carpet is very old and soiled. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast was minimal. Overall, a bit disappointing for the price.
Generally nice. Grounds are very nice with lots of places to site and enjoy the outdoors. Property is quite dusty and lots of cobwebs. Porch attached to room was dusty and unkempt.
We enjoy our evening at the Brentwood. It has been around for a few decades apparently, as such there is a bit of wear, but all good. The only glitch was getting in. I had the code for the main lock box, but couldn't figure out how to work it. (You have to push a button to illuminate a digital key pad. The code for the room lock box was really hard to find in the "email". I suspect if one had the app, it would have been more apparent. (A better explanation of how the lock boxes work (never seen these ones before) might have been helpful. I called the number and the gal was very helpful and resolved the issue. Easy sailing after that. Nice place. It felt a little like first year university entering the dorm for the first time. A few other couples there, but everybody was pretty chill. I don't know if it mentions it on the website, but there is quite the stair case down to the beach, and somebody with significant mobility issues might not be able to navigate it. Over all it was very nice. 4/5 overall.
Showing signs of neglect over priced and undervalued. Beautiful home showing its age but lacked maintenance mold spider webs on balcony steps unsafe going down to beach and tram lift out of order.
Lovely location, great private beach and lots of rooms for rest and relaxation in the property. It was great to have a ping pong table and pool table, and the room the pool was in was heated though the pool itself was not. We also used the BBQ pretty frequently, it was great to have access to that as well. My only issue was that the outside areas could have been cleaner, a lot of the sides of chairs, tables etc., were very dusty and had lots of cobwebs, it was pretty clear that only the surfaces had been cleaned if anything, we often used tissues to wipe down the sides before sitting. Same thing with the decorations and chairs outside at the front, a lot of cobwebs everywhere.
Apart from that though the kitchen itself was very clean at all times and all the guests were respectful about following the rules and washing up after themselves. The room and bathroom as well very very clean and pleasant. Overall I really recommend staying here, and we may come back in the future!
