About this property

Sunset Serenity - lake view hot tub!

This spring, treat yourself to pure relaxation in the outdoor hot tub, soaking in the fresh air and starry skies—serenity at its finest. Inside, the tastefully decorated spaces create a cozy beach cottage vibe, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the season's beauty.

Whether you're basking in the warmth of the hot tub or enjoying the cozy ambiance indoors, Sunset Serenity is your perfect spring escape.

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 2025 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.

Premier offers a queen bed. And great spot to work if you have to.

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 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 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.

Bayfield break

Lovely stay away from the everyday. Tasteful home with Lake Huron views. Hot tub dips while the sun sets. Cute town with lots of close hiking/walking trails.

March Break weekend

Stayed for 3 nights over March Break. The kids (6 & 7 yo) enjoyed the bonus loft room and we all enjoyed many board games. Highlights were the wildlife that was easily seen from the kitchen and living room: foxes, rabbit, ground hog and even a bald eagle. Wonderful sunsets and fun trips to local restaurants, breweries and hiking trails. Jennifer communicates regularly and clearly and everything was as described. No full privacy between the rooms (sounds carry with angled wall slats at the top of shared wall, useful for air circulation) which only was noticeable when kids were trying to fall asleep, so not a problem for us, but wouldn’t stay with another couple here. Beautiful retreat with a great view.

Perfect getaway during a winter storm

The cottage was exactly as advertised. Jennifer was very accommodating and checked in with us regularly to make sure we were comfortable - especially given the extreme weather in the area. Zero complaints. We will book again, no question.

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!

Another amazing stay at Sunset Serenity!

We had such a great time last year, we decided to return for another visit. The weather wasn’t as nice this year as it was last year, but we still had a great time. We went for lots of walks in between the breaks in rain and still took in all the sights around the area. We enjoyed the break from the hustle of everyday life and the tranquility of the cottage. The trees and the sound of the water crashing on the shore certainly brought a peacefulness to our days. The cottage was pristine and had all the comforts of home, with a much better view :) We are grateful that we had this time away to reconnect and we look forward to returning again soon! Jen and Lea are fabulous hosts!

Absolutely perfectly relaxing

Four of us stayed at this property for the second year in a row. We especially enjoy the outdoor covered area with wood burning fireplace and the beach deck overlooking Lake Huron. We also enjoyed visiting Cowbell Brewery in Blyth,Bayfield shops,Lambeth Museum in Grand Bend for Ontario Paints 2022 show.

Amazing Sunset

This cottage's name says it all "Sunset Serenity Shorehouse" We rented the cottage for a week and I must say that I have seen the best sunset ever. The cottage location is great with amazing view. The outside area is perfect. great sitting area and the inside is very comfy as well. I would definitely recommend.

An Unforgettable Week at Sunset Serenity Shorehouse

Myself and three friends recently returned from a wonderful week at Sunset Serenity. I am more than happy to give 5 stars; as it was everything I expected and there were no disappointments. The cottage was spacious, super-clean, and had all the amenities/supplies noted before we arrived. We enjoyed fires every night in the gorgeous stone wall fireplace while relaxing on very comfortable backyard patio furniture watching beautiful red sunsets. We plan to book another week next year as soon as we’re able to! (One helpful note; upstairs loft bedroom pretty much for younger folks due to steep stair access.)
