Location, Location, Location - this traditional cottage is well known for its absolutely wonderful location on one of the most beautiful spots on Lake Huron, and the spectacular sunsets. The Cottage Ambience is phenomenal. The view from this property was even highlighted in the Globe and Mail a few years ago.
Located on prestigious Lake Huron, our waterfront vacation house features lots of sandy beach and swimming in beautiful clear water. Some areas may have a few small and big rocks/pebbles and the area of the sandy beach depends on on what the weather brings in or takes out, but these only add to the beauty of the beach or just increases the swimming areas/water sports area.
Sun worshipper or shade lover you will find them here.
Relax on the outdoor beach and cottage decks, 2 patios or 2 balconies while watching the sun set over the lake. Enjoy each other's company, dance, BBQ, make smores, play and sing around the firepit. Open and spacious back and front yard, great for playing games for all ages.
This beach house is fully air conditioned during the hot summer and heated during the winter.
With 4 bedrooms and a much, much needed 3rd bathroom, you can enjoy the kind of magnificent space and layout that makes for a fabulous vacation that offers a semblance of privacy to each person or family. The bedrooms have been comfortably designed to be away from the main activity areas. It's easy for anyone in the group to get away to relax or read when they want to, turn in before the rest of the group in the evening or to sleep late in the morning.
Beds are as follows:
Master Bedroom - 2 Queen size beds and 1 double Futon, ensuite bathroom, gas fireplace, balcony and beautiful view of lake.
Bedroom 2 - double bed
Bedroom 3 - double bed
Bedroom 4 - double bed
2 additional bathrooms located near Bedroom 2, 3 and 4
Our kitchen is fully loaded with all appliances and service for 8-10. The dining area is surrounded by a superb view of Lake Huron. This is the perfect spot to entertain, and features an expandable table. Enjoy the beauty of this magnificent part of the world, while having a meal.
Our family room has a beautiful view of the lake. There is a TV, a small library and also a few board games, some left over by previous renters.
Our games area, a converted garage, features a pool table, table tennis and air hockey table.
The front of the property is enclosed by a treed fence and offers a wonderful secure playing area for children. One can also play badminton or volleyball. This area has a small patio and offers an alternative on really windy days when not possible to be lakeside.
The beach is accessible via private 65 wooden steps and rails at the end of our property . There is a landing approx every 14-15 steps and makes the beach easily accessible throughout the year. There is an alternative Private Lane Resident only access to the beach less than 100ft away with a walkable slope leading to approx 20 wooden and steel steps.
We are conveniently located in the St Joseph's community, a few minutes drive between Grand Bend and Bayfield.
Sun, rain or snow, there is always something to do. Enjoy the little towns, golfing, restaurants, antique shops, drag racing, nightlife, marinas and lots more fun at these popular summer vacation destinations or just stay at our beach house and enjoy the privacy.
For health reasons, we have maintained chemical free lawns and gardens. We have let the trees, wildflowers and plants grow to preserve the cottage ambience, but still perform a regular indoor and outdoor weekly maintenance to keep a little control. Our indoor and outdoor furniture is practical and user friendly. We are very proud to maintain most of our annual renters who love the traditional cottage feel at a wonderful location. That is a true luxury in this day and age.

WATER LEVEL UPDATE
Water levels and sandy beach area are dependent on weather conditions, and can range from 10 ft to 100 ft . Since April 2023, sandy beach area is closer to the 75ft mark. Higher water levels mean its great for swimming and water sports (bring your own beach toys). Sometimes large and small rocks may be exposed depending on weather/water levels and we strongly recommend water shoes. It is very difficult to know what to expect each season, but the ever-changing landscape is absolutely beautiful and there is always something to do, no matter what nature brings in.
