The cottage is on a quiet street on the outskirts of Bayfield. There is a public Lake access for residents in this area

After a beautiful day in cottage country, gather around the firepit for storytelling, marshmallow roasting, and stargazing.

Public Lake access is 5 min walk away in Paul Bunyan campground. 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.

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 favorite—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 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.

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.

Great stay in Bayfield

Loved our visit to Bayfield. Accommodations were lovely and the town was so fun to explore. Communication with Jennifer was great and she checked-in regularly to see how we were doing, offer suggestions for restaurants, etc. We would stay here again.

Perfect Girls Getaway!

This was the perfect place for our girls trip. The cottage was clean & cozy which allowed us to relax and just enjoy our time time together. It was spacious with plenty of comfortable seating to lounge around. A lot of storage space for food & drink. Pretty much had all the amenities we needed. Beds are very comfortable. Getting to the beach is a bit of a walk up the road & down steps but if you prepare to be there for the day then it’s not too bad. It’s also worth it to watch the sun set. We will definitely be back!

Cute as a button

This cottage is styled so beautifully - with calming neutral tones & vintage finds. The stone fireplace was nice to have (and pretty to look at) on the chilly nights. It's a very comfortable space to be in! The covered side porch is a nice extension to the living space in warmer weather & a great spot to watch the sunrise over the back field. The front porch is a nice spot to catch the breeze and a wee peek at the lake. Beach access is a short walk away & there are lots of low traffic roads to walk or ride a bike on - you could go all the way into Bayfield if you wanted to.

Quiet, peaceful and great location.

Very well decorated. Bedrooms are rather small. Lots of outdoor seating spaces. Very peaceful and quiet there and close to downtown Bayfield shopping areas.

We took our younger but now adult cousins here to continue our family vacation tradition that our grandparents started. This was the perfect spot for it and everyone loved it.

Family Memories

A Wave From It All was a nice, clean and well appointed spot to make Summer family memories. Jennifer made everything easy and was great at communicating with us throughout and checked in regularly. We really appreciated the pet friendly vibe of the cottage and local beach. The cottage is well appointed with almost everything you could need. Air conditioning would make this place perfect and allow guests to sleep with the windows closed on nights and mornings when the neighbour has their outdoor radio on. Thank you for a lovely getaway and all of the personal touches.

Lovely New Cottage in Bayfield

We loved the neutral decor! The kitchen was wonderful and well equipped for preparing meals. The sunporch was perfect for lazy afternoons and watching the rain in the evening.

Beautiful stay

This was a lovely vacation home on a quiet street. We really enjoyed the area. Bayfield is a quaint little town and it is close enough for day trips to Goderich and Grand Bend. The cottage had a great vibe and was decorated beautifully. We really enjoyed the covered side porch. It was a great place to play cards or read a book.

Wonderful Get Away!

I went away for a few days with friends and my sister. The cottage was beautiful! Well equipped, nicely decorated. Due to bad weather we couldn’t sit out side but the view from the back deck was so pretty. We will be back.

Relaxing fall getaway

We really enjoyed our time at A Wave From It All. They really provided absolutely everything we needed (all we had to bring was food) and were quick to respond when we couldn't find something. The property was lovely, comfortable, very clean and even nicer than described. The enclosed side patio was perfect for enjoying warm fall days. We (and our pups) also enjoyed exploring the big yard and the nearby beach.

Bayfield in October

We have been going to the Bayfield area for many years but I have never been there in October. The foliage is spectacular and the temperatures were ideal for long walks. Lake Huron is always at it’s best regardless of the season. A Wave from it All cottage was perfect. Just the right size with its open concept. Very comfy for watching Netflix in the evening. For me, coming from a farm, watching the big farm machinery harvesting the soybean and the corn in the surrounding fields pulled at my heart strings. Every day something new. Once the crops were down the Canadian Geese and Wild Turkeys rested/fed in the fields. Spectator to witness so close. All in all an extremely enjoyable stay!!! 😎👏😊
