Winter Wonders & Lakeside Dreams *Hot Tub*

Sunset Serenity describes how you'll feel when you stay at this exceptional Bayfield beach cottage. From the stunning lake views to the professional decorated spaces to the peaceful outdoor spaces, this cottage promises to spoil, relax and impress even the most discriminating guests. The tastefully decorated interior spaces rival the exterior views, giving off a relaxed beach cottage vibe that will have you forgetting your stresses in no time.

Watch the most beautiful sunsets in the world from your private beach, or the deck, or the living room and even the kitchen. Truly this is Sunset Serenity!

INSIDE
Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room frame out those incredible lake views and bathe the space in natural light. When it's too dark to enjoy the views, turn your attention to the living room's SmartTV or just enjoy good old fashioned conversation around the gas fireplace.

Start your day in the eat-in kitchen enjoying a delicious breakfast and incredible lake views. The fully-stocked kitchen has everything you need to create all your family favourites, with full-size appliances and plenty of counter space. Plus, the front porch houses a propane gas grill for easy meals.

OUTSIDE
Those incredible lake views continue outside on the covered patio where you can enjoy dazzling sunsets with a cold drink in the Muskoka chairs. If the evenings turn chilly, cozy up with a fire in the wood-burning fireplace. Whether you're looking for your daily dose of vitamin D or prefer your fresh air with plenty of shade, the pretty yard has great spaces with both sun and shade.

Private access, approx 80 stairs lead to a beautiful beaches providing fun day and night. On the way down to the beach, you'll pass a sunset deck, another perfect spot to watch the day end. Down on the beach, splash in the gentle waves, explore the ever-changing sandbars or just soak up the sun during the day. At night, gather around the beach campfire at night with songs, s'mores and stories while you watch the stars come out.

NOTE: This year 2024 we have very little beach.. but it changes everyday depending on lake levels and what the lake pushes up. 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: There is ongoing construction at the neighboring house. The work is primarily indoors, so noise is minimal, and no construction takes place on weekends.

SLEEPING SPACES
Premier offers a queen bed. And great spot to work if you have to.
BR #2 also has a queen bed
There is a new pullout couch in the living room that would work too.

NOTE: Playpen/Highchair available upon request

EXPERIENCE BAYFIELD
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. Several weeks later, the snow starts to fall and guests can enjoy the quiet of winter and crunch through the snow in evergreen forests or try out the snowshoe trails on the river flats.

You're just five minutes from White Squirrel Golf Club with winter hiking trails and winter golf for those die-hard links lovers. Explore downtown Bayfield, just two minutes away, browsing the unique boutiques and stopping for a hot coffee at one of the quaint cafes. We're happy to suggest our favorite local spas, wineries and breweries, including Dark Horse Estate Winery with a tasting room. With wooded trails, scenic country vistas and stunning Lake Huron, Bayfield is a beautiful place to explore no matter the season.

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.

SPACKMAN / TREPANIER VACATION
OVERALL WE WERE VERY HAPPY WITH OUR STAY AT SUNSET SERENITY COTTAGE. IT WAS PRETTY MUCH EXACTLY AS ADVERTISED. THE COMMON AND OUTDOOR SPACES WERE PERFECT. WE REALLY LOVED THE PATIO WITH FIREPLACE AND ENJOYED A FIRE EVERY EVENING. THE HOTTUB WAS GREAT AND WE LOVED THE OUTDOOR SHOWER. THE KITHEN WAS IDEAL THE BATHROOM WAS TINY BUT JUST FINE SINCE THEOUTDOOR SHOWER IS HUGE. BEDROOMS WERE OK. I PERSONALLY PREFER A LARGER BED, BUT WE KNEW WE WERE GETTING QUEEN BEDS. SO NO COMPLAINTS. WE HAD A GREAT TIME!

Quaint and beautiful little cottage
We had a great time at Sunset Serenity. Very private location nestled amongst the trees and super close to Bayfield. The cottage is nice and cottagy with all the comforts. We loved the layout and the decor, and especially the hot tub. A really nice touch on cooler days when lake swimming isn’t an option. The outdoor wood burning fireplace was our favourite feature. We had a fire going all day long! So great. The only thing we would have changed or would suggest, was a little bit of treetop trimming to reveal a bit more of those famous Lake Huron sunsets. Overall a fantastic stay and we would go back in a heartbeat!

Nice, quaint cottage that had everything that we needed! The lake view was awesome and being so close to Bayfield, and not to far from Grand Bend and Goderich was really great! Jennifer communicated very well as the check in/check out process was very easy.

A Beautiful Cottage in a great location
The cottage is a bright and airy space with all the expected amenities. We particularly liked sitting outside in the evening in front of the outdoor fireplace. There is also a lovely deck just above the beach. We hope to come back here next year

Husband and I really enjoyed the property. We used the outdoor fireplace several times. The cottage was well decorated and very clean. The hosts were very accommodating to our dog, who even got her own welcome treats :)
