They thought of everything:)
We enjoyed our stay at this very lovely house. It did not disappoint the beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything you needed, the game’s room/screening room was a very nice touch. I enjoyed a hot tub before retiring for the night. The back deck and fire pit provided a great space to spend time outdoors.

A cottage feel with 5 star home experience
My family and I loved staying at Casa Mariposa! This place had it all. Felt like we were staying a spacious cottage with all the amenities you’d love to have at your fingertips. The private backyard was our favourite spot to hang out between our short trips the beach and shopping along the Grand Bend strip. Loved hanging out in the hot tub and having night time fires around the fire pit. But of course we also loved the games room in their modern updated basement. This place had everything you’d want to have available to you at home during your stay, while still feeling like you’re having a great cottage experience. Do yourself a favour and check the place out. Thank you Angela and Ricardo!! Great job.

Incredible experience in casa mariposa
Casa mariposa is the perfect stay if you are looking for an incredible experience, if you are looking to be outside or inside this is the house for you. Starting with the hosts, they are always in touch with you making sure everything is ready for your arrival, they are so welcoming and warm. The house is always in pristine condition and all the amenities are ready for you to use, from minute 1 that you step foot inside. They have all the games imaginable (indoor and outdoor) for you to have an incredible stay. I just wish I had more time to stay in there :D Overall it was a 15/10 experience. Highly recommend.

Casa Mariposa
Beautiful property inside and out. We had rainy weather the whole time so we never got to enjoy the fire pit who h we were looking forward to doing. We made the best of it with lots of hotbtub time and enjoying the fantastic game room. The only negatove thing is the the deck and stairs outside were very slippery when they are wet. I would highly recommend thos property!

Wonderful!!
We were a group of 7 attending a family reunion in the area...5 adults and 2 children.This lovely property is just as described and pictured only BETTER! Right from the beginning, Ricardo was professional, always responded quickly to any questions and showed genuine concern that we had the best experience possible. The home itself is open, bright and spacious. Downstairs is large with a bedroom, bathroom, great games area and a TV lounging spot. Outside is a gem...private with tree lined yard and a child's dream backyard complete with trampoline, play structure, swing.....The adults enjoyed the fire pit, large deck with BBQ and of course hot tub.The whole place was extremely clean and well kept. We will be back only for longer next visit! Thank you Angela and Ricardo.

A perfect 5 star weekend getaway
The process was very smooth.the host respond right away check in was easy and smooth. Ricardo provided step by step of check in and check. About the property the house was beautiful decorated very nice super clean and modern. They have provided everything you can imagine there was nothing I can think of that was missing in the kitchen from appliances to plates and cooking. There was pool and football table and the bonus a Pacman arcade machine. The host put a lot of effort to make the stay very enjoyable there were many different board games a work/kids room with books they even provided a pass for the park. Linen towels everything clean and tidy. The outside was even nicer seating area BBQ hot tub play area for kids and also fire pit sitting area. I have stayed in different cottages but I have to say this was a perfect cottage to spend time with friends and family. Is 15 min From Grand Bend. You have to stay here for sure Thank you Ricardo

Perfect place to stay for a couple or family
Perfect place to stay. Quiet, peaceful and all the privacy you want. The hot tub is a perfect touch to relax after your day of traveling. Great touch leaving a park pass as the beach was lovely. What you see in the picture and read in the information is exactly what you get. The hosts were awesome always there to help and give suggestions for things to do. We would definitely come back. Definitely a 5 Star. John & Beth
