    Well stocked kitchen. Had absolutely everything you could need: lots of pots, pans, enough plates for a few meals. Even though we brought everything we needed for food, there were plenty of spices and some extra food if you needed extra tea,...

Jackie Lavigne, Owner
Welcome to A Day at the Lake Cottage, located on Clark Beach, Harrow, Ontario. Our lakefront cottage is comfortable, newly furnished and located in the heart of wine country. We feature three tastefully decorated bedrooms, a sun porch, hammock next to the water, gazebo, fire pit and lake breezes. Our spa-like bathroom offers several shower jets and a heating lamp for comfort. Laundry facilities and three parking spaces also. BBQ, full kitchen and gas fireplace offer all of the comforts of home.
Welcome! I am a married, mother of two boys. I enjoy the water, nature, and travel. I am a former tourist representative with vast knowledge of the local area and Windsor/Essex County. I am happy to provide personal assistance for all of your travel needs. I love meeting our guests and making them feel at home.
We are located just off of County Road 50E, in the heart of Essex County’s wine country. We are on the water, in a quiet neighbourhood. We are located close to John R. Park Homestead, and nearby Colchester and Cedar Beaches. There are several conservation areas to explore in the region, including Holiday Beach. We are 10 minutes to Harrow, 20 minutes to Kingsville and Essex.
