Most Special Place In Scarborough

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Shipmate's Cottage! Debbie was a fantastic host, providing clear communication throughout our stay. The cottage itself is charming and cozy, with all the amenities you could need for a comfortable stay. It was spotlessly clean, and the thoughtful touches made us feel right at home. The location is perfect, with easy access to local attractions. We highly recommend Shipmate's Cottage and would love to return in the future. Thank you, Debbie, for a memorable stay!

Fantastic Hosts

Fantastic location exceptionally clean well equipped cottage with great local amenities. The cottage was better than we expected we spent most of our time there as we went to chill and read and relax, and that is exactly what we did and needed. Wish we had longer there . Maybe next time we stop. That’s unless we stop at the boathouse which Debbie and Andy showed us around also beautiful place to stay . Debbie and Andy were great if I text them it didn’t take long for them to respond. Definitely going to be in touch again to stay a one of the two locations. Great job guys
