You'll also have access to 2 16” bicycles and 2 scooters, as well as 2 kayaks and a paddleboard with life jackets. Relax in a comfortable chair around the fire pit and enjoy smores and ghost stories.

NOTE: Lake access is steps away on Tuyll street. 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.

NOTE: Parking is limited to 4 vehicles

EXPERIENCE BAYFIELD
The pace of life slows down in Bayfield. When you vacation here, it's easy to experience each day to its fullest.

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.

Visit during the off-season to catch favourite annual events like VetteFest or for a girl's getaway weekend—we're happy to suggest our favorite local spas, wineries and breweries, shops, and yoga classes.

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.

A great time was had by everyone!
Lakeside Layover was a perfect fit for our family. It was beautifully furnished and very clean. Everything that we needed was provided. Lots of space for together time as well as time apart. Everyone enjoyed playing pickle ball, basketball, pingpong. Location was excellent; walking distance to beach and main street of Bayfield. We enjoyed campfires every night. The dogs enjoyed fetching in the water, and playing in the yard. Our sincere thanks to Jennifer, Lea, and Shauna! They were extremely helpful in providing all of the necessary details, as well as answering our questions. The only reason we gave it 4 stars was because of the master tub/shower; the tub was narrow, and had no handles to safely shower as well as enter and exit tub.
