David was a great guide. His communication skills were excellent. Really enjoyed this trip.

The cottages were great and an excellent group made it a lot of fun! A bit more downtime than I'm used to on birding trips, but given weather/birds, it was actually pleasant change and I don't think we missed any good birds because of it. There were a couple spots that some prior scouting would have been useful (eg: Hillman Marsh and Cedar Creek), but overall I really enjoyed exploring Pt Pelee and I appreciated David's insights into identifying those tough fall warblers and hints for IDing raptors. Although the cottages were very nice, the single supplement was really steep and I'd recommend if this trip is repeated in the future, exploring ways to reduce this (eg: cottage that has more 2 bed/room options or perhaps renting 1 cottage and giving singles the option to stay at a nearby hotel....acknowledging this would create some logistical challenges given limited hotels in the area). One other suggestion would be to be more up-front in description on how transport would work (eg: if you drive separately, be prepared to drive during the tour as well). Having breakfast and lunches via grocery run was a great way to help keep costs down and worked out really well with each cottage sharing the food. Restaurant choices for dinner were all great!

Accomodations were great, communication prior and during the trip was fantastic. I learned a lot from David while birding and overall feel the trip is a great value. I would recommend this trip to anyone.
