I had a very nice time at Sweet Retreat! Some recommendations/feedback: a different universal remote (I could not get the buttons to work when using the dvd player), provide or inform renters that they need to bring oven mitts (I could not find any) and consider adding the wifi password to the info sheet by the door (could only get the wifi password by using wifi/data to access the Expedia app). Overall, it was a very nice week!

Perfect stay in the heart of Tobermory!

We had a fantastic stay in this place. The location couldn’t be better - just steps away from harbour, restaurants, shops and ferry. The room was clean, comfortable and well maintained. Communication with the host was smooth and friendly, and check-in was easy. Highly recommended for a quiet and relaxing stay.

Great location, clean and roomy cottage perfect for family of 4. The place could use a few cheap upgrades that would really make it pop. Considering the price compared to others and pet friendly we were happy with our choice. Just don't expect luxury.

This is a great home base for your Tobermorey stay, all restaurants/coffee within a 10 minute walk. A spacious living area, clean and cozy vibe, there is a nice outdoor area with a fire pit. An upgrade to the bedding (plush pillows, comfier mattress) would really make this place pop, but current offerings align with expectations for a family cottage. The host was very responsive and helpful.

Great cozy place with 2 clean bedrooms. At night its so quiet and cozy at the fireplace, were they had already provided us with logs. There were games and puzzles at home too. Its a well organized cozy and clean place and great for small get together. Even have a swingset at the back for kids. So closeby to downtown and very close to bruce anchor docking deck, closer than the bruce anchor parking. And walkable distance to the main strip. Great location, cozy and clean place, great fireplace and there is barbeque grill too. The host was very responsive and sweet.
