5 Special Things One Must Know About Cottages at Wasaga Beach

Tourists visiting Wasaga Beach have a lot to look forward to. Apart from the world’s largest freshwater beach, there are a number of hiking trails and options for cycling. During the winter, snowmobile trails and cross country skiing are also available. There are educational tours at the Nancy Island historical site, mini and regular golf courses, a Go Kart track, fishing, canoeing, paintball, and much more.

With so many options and things to do, it is little wonder that most tourists extend their trips by several days. An important factor that allows people to do this is the excellent but cheap accommodation available at cottages throughout Wasaga Beach. They can almost be described as a boutique or motel resorts. They offer a wide range of amenities while also cutting back many of the pointless embellishments and extras commonly associated with hotels in other popular tourist destinations. This allows Wasaga Beach to maintain a small town charm despite attracting over two million tourists every year.

The top five things that set these Wasaga Beach cottages apart are outlined here.

•Amenities: Cottages are designed in a way that will make you feel as if you are in a home away from home. These cottages offer clean rooms with an air conditioner, LCD TV, Wi-Fi (usually free), and a coffee maker. Some appliances like hair dryers, ovens, mixers etc. are usually available on request. Housekeeping and other facilities like towels and toiletries are provided on request. Light housekeeping and extra towels are usually available at a small charge.

•No Pets: Most cottage establishments have a ‘no-pets-allowed’ policy. So you can walk in the lawns without stepping on something you wish you didn’t.  But still be careful if you do decide to take your morning walk barefoot, as spiders are quite common in the town and nearby areas, though none are dangerous to humans.

•Non-Smoking Rooms: Most cottages do not allow smoking inside the rooms and thus ensures   clean and pollution free rooms

•Picnic and BBQ: Barbeque rentals are free, and most cottage establishments have several shared barbeque and designated areas for picnic and BBQ parties. Enjoy them with your family, friends or socialize with other guests.

•Booking and Cancelations:  Cottages in Wasaga Beach are small family run operations. As such, their booking and cancellation policies may seem stricter than large hotels. They will charge a small booking fee, usually the cost of one night’s stay as an advance. Cancelations also need to be done several days. In case of a no-show or a late cancelation, the booking fee may be non-refundable.
