For those looking to explore the lake, we’ve provided 2 kayaks and lifejackets to make your adventure easy and fun. And if you're driving an electric vehicle, you'll appreciate the added convenience of an EV charger on-site.
NOTE: Lake access is 1 minute walk down the road. Approx 60 stairs down to the Lake. The lakebed can be sandy or stoney depending on what the lake gives you that day. But it sure is fun to try to find the ever changing sandbars. Generally you will find sand 3ft out. It's fun to go stone collecting - Lake Huron is a geologists paradise! Just bring some water shoes. The nice thing is, it's not weedy or slimy at all.

EXPERIENCE BAYFIELD The pace of life slows down in Bayfield. When you vacation here, it's easy to experience each day to its fullest.
Clan Gregor Square is the heart of our quaint community where many local festivals/carshows and you won't want to miss the farmers market in season. Pioneer Park is another local favourite—kids will love cooling down at the splash pad. There's always something happening here, whether it's morning yoga or artists painting the sunset.
Wander downtown and find your new favourite cafe, and be sure to save a day to explore Bayfield's wineries and breweries! Just a few minutes away, you can enjoy an amazing wine tasting experience at Hessenland Inn & Schatz Winery.
With wooded trails, scenic country vistas, and stunning Lake Huron, Bayfield is a beautiful place to explore no matter the season. Bring your hiking boots and plan a trip during leaf-peeping season for a display of color, or come enjoy the quiet of winter and crunch through the snow in evergreen forests.
ABOUT YOUR HOST I'm Jennifer, I started CottageStays to share my own home with like-minded travelers who appreciate escaping to life at a slower pace. I've never forgotten how lucky I am to call Lake Huron home. Now more than ever, everyone is in need of the kind of peace and quiet that escaping to the lake can bring. It's my absolute privilege to be the one to provide families and friends a special place to gather and create memories while exploring an area so near and dear to me.

Fall Getaway at a beautiful cottage
I couldn't resist a last minute getaway to take advantage of the summerlike temperatures in October. Jennifer didn't disappoint and found the perfect cottage for me and my water loving lab, Kona. The cottage was beautiful (more like an upscale house) in a private community 5 minutes from Bayfield. We had a one minute walk to the lake and had the beach all to ourselves. I have rented cottages from Jennifer many times and this one is something special.

What a beautiful cottage.
What a beautiful cottage. Fireplace was on when we arrived. Made it nice and cozy from the start. Well appointed kitchen and a comfy roomy couch. Backyard is lovely and private with nice fire area. Bedrooms were spacious and roomy. Had a fantastic weekend. This is the 2nd cottage that I have stayed in through this contact. The first one was just as nice!
We stayed at this cottage for 3 nights in October and had a wonderful experience. The space was spotless, quiet, and very spacious, with a stylish design that made it feel both comfortable and welcoming. The location was excellent, it was just a short walk to the beach and close to everything we needed. Our hosts were friendly, responsive, and made sure everything went smoothly. Overall, a perfect getaway spot that we would gladly return to and highly recommend!

Birthday retreat at the Signal
We had a wonderful 5 nights stay at the Signal! It was a mini celebration for my sister’s 70th birthday! We were welcomed with treats for us and the dogs with soothing background music- it was a warm hug after a long drive! The cottage is lovely and well appointed , much larger than we expected, with extremely comfortable beds and furnishings! Our goal was to enjoy the lake and area sights , which we did! Great wineries/cidaries, restaurants , farmer markets , apiaries, shopping and local parks/ beaches filled our time to overflowing ! We enjoyed our strolls along the lake with the dogs ! Goderich and Bayfield were our favourite towns to visit !
Thank you to Jennifer and team for making our stay a special memory !
Très belle maison avec une cuisine complète. C'était trws propre et nous avions toute l'information necessaire poour faire fonctionner la maison:AC, laveuse etc. Nous avons pu profité de la plage a 1 minute de marche ainsi que toutes les autres a proximité de la maison em voiture. Jennifer a vraiment été une bonne hôte et elle etait disponible au besoin si on avait des questions. Nous avions un chien egalement et la maison était parfaite pour lui. Je recommande
