Woodland Large Lakefront Retreat-King bed GameRoom

Embrace the beauty by the lake! Enjoy glistening lake views, a games room with a pool table, and the warmth of cozy fires for your family and group adventures. Your ultimate getaway awaits!

Beautiful Private LakeView Cottage with all the amenities to have your dream family vacation or inspire your team before a big deadline, or meditate in a calm environment—this is the place for groups to reset, reflect, & recharge.

This private woodland retreat with sparkling views of the water from the backyard patio, the living room and kitchen. Enveloped by trees with a huge yard - this cottage is an ideal year-round getaway for large families. From fall to spring, it is also the model host for yoga and team-building retreats.

INSIDE:
Spacious kitchen with everything you need to prepare your favorite dishes. There's a large pantry and a separate freezer so you will have lots of room to store all your foodstuffs! A countertop bar with 4 barstools and small dining table which seats 4 in the kitchen with views of the lake. Everyone will enjoy helping! And there's another dining area that seats 6.
Gather in the Great Room to play games or tell tales in front of the fireplace! There's lots of seating in the living area and a large screen TV for rainy nights when it's time for popcorn and a movie!
Downstairs there's another large screen TV with electric fireplace - great place to watch the game or watch a movie. Or maybe shoot a game of pool while enjoying your favorite bevy from the wet bar complete with beverage fridge and another dishwasher.

SLEEPING SPACES:
Master bedroom with King bed. And you will appreciate the master ensuite with tub and separate shower. Grab a glass of wine and your favorite book to soak in the cocoon jacuzzi tub.

BATHROOMS:
--Main floor--
#1 Ensuite with tub and shower
#2 3 Piece with Shower
--Downstairs--
#3 3 Piece with Shower

NOTE: Playpen/Highchair available upon request

OUTSIDE:
Everyone will love paddling out on the kayaks, playing games in the large backyard, kids will revel in the huge sandbox or bring a net for some badminton/volleyball. BBQ up some steaks on the BBQ under a covered deck (which you'll appreciate if it's raining). Personally I savor quiet time on the sunset deck. In the evening, enjoy the fire pit with s'mores under the stars. Life can't get better than that!
And no need to leave your dog behind we know pets are family

NOTE: Lake Access is a a rolling hill entrance. Lots of beach this year-2024
The water 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. Even if it's stoney…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.

EXTRA'S: include Wi-Fi, upstairs TV has an Amazon Firestick, Air Conditioning, dishwasher, wood and electric fireplaces, pool table and wet bar, wine fridge and 2nd dishwasher, propane BBQ and firepit. We've also included 2 kayaks and a youth paddleboard and some bikes

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 favorite 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 favorite 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.

Our experience at the Woodland Retreat cottage
We enjoyed the well-maintained well-equipped cottage. We got a guidebook that explained a lot about living at that cottage. Unfortunately, the heating in the basement, which was separate from the heating upstairs, did not work. Hot water for showers was a little problematic. Other than these inconveniences, we enjoyed our stay there. Communication with the owner was very good.

Wonderful Woodland Oasis
We absolutely loved our stay at the Woodland Private Retreat! What a wonderful oasis. We were greeted with the stunning view of sunny Lake Huron through magnificent west-facing windows. The house is incredibly spacious and has both a luxurious and cozy-cottage feel to it. The property is magnificent. The woodlands on both sides give a lovely degree of privacy. We often sat on the patio out back and enjoyed the singing cicadas and crickets, and several nights sat around the firepit and watched a gorgeous sunset while listening to crashing waves below us. We also loved the private path down to the beach area -- although a little steep at the start, the switchbacks make the mini trek very manageable and pleasant. The six of us ranged in ages from 56 to 83, and we all enjoyed the entire experience. My sister's Australian shepherd was in his element in this highly dog-friendly place. It was wonderful to have an array of indoor and outdoor games available for those of us who wanted to play pool, or bat a volleyball around (for example). There's so much to do and see around the area as well (e.g., we hiked, went to a winery, explored Bayfield and Goderich, went to outdoor markets). The folks from CottageStays managed our inquiries wonderfully, and it's clear they care deeply about the place and want you to have a terrific vacation. We really really did. I can't thank you enough -- both the owners and the CottageStays folks. We'd definitely like to come back!!

Great weekend stay
This Woodland retreat was perfect for our friend group weekend away! Great location, easy access to the water, and picturesque views from the deck. The cottage itself was spacious, more than enough bedrooms, and plenty of room that we were never tripping over each other. Great communication about the accommodations well in advance of the weekend so we were never left in the dark about anything. Would definitely recommend staying here, and would love to stay here again!
