OUTSIDE:
Step outside and breathe in the fresh air! This brand new cottage is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature. Here are just a few of the outdoor highlights: a spacious deck to soak up the sun, a cozy firepit for evening gatherings, and a comfortable outdoor living room to relax and take in the sights and sounds. Don't forget to fire up the propane BBQ for a delicious meal at the iron dining table. And for those chillier nights, head to the screened porch with heated floors for a warm and inviting dining experience. Plus, you'll enjoy the privacy of this lot, which backs onto a protected forested area in the charming village.

NOTE: Lake access is a few minutes walk 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 3 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.

We frequently visit Bayfield due to the beautiful clear blue waters and sandy beaches. Our stay at Poplar Woods was phenomenal. What a beautiful home. It is recently renovated and everything was in great condition. The home was clean and beautifully furbished. We loved it here! Thank you for having us!!

A private, quiet cottage in the trees.

A family of seniors enjoyed a lovely relaxing stay at this cottage. Small soaps, coffee, chocolates and treats for our little dog were special extras that we appreciated. Lots of towels and facecloths were available and a lovely screened in porch was ideal for playing cards in the evening. A wonderful cottage for that was so enjoyable. Thank you.

Wonderful, private escape

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed an extra long-weekend in this beautifully bright and modern house. We have been to Bayfield many times before and love exploring the town and the surrounding areas, but on this occasion, we found the house and private garden too enjoyable to leave for long. It was an exceptional break that provided peace and tranquility from our busy lives. We highly recommend!

Short Holiday get away that crossed all the t’s

Our trip to the “Poplar Woods” was a perfect getaway for the US Memorial weekend with friends. Driving top down to the beach and hitting all the familiar shops was topped off by the perfect cottage that offered upscale accommodations with a homey atmosphere. The setting was so nicely tucked into the woods, but not so remote that a quick easy walk to town wasn’t possible. Every possible detail was thought of and executed without feeling overdone. We will definitely return.

Lovely Little Vacation

We really enjoyed our time at this rental. Beautiful home, very clean and minimal, but has everything you need which we appreciated. Perfect for our toddler and small dog as there wasn’t a lot of stuff they could get into. The host was extremely easy to communicate with, and quick to respond to any questions we had. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Relaxing

Our stay was relaxing, peaceful and recharging. I was expecting the T.V. to be in the family room. It’s upstairs. BUT that was what made our trip. We talked we laughed we reconnected. I couldn’t have asked for a better time. The cottage is just beautiful. Has everything you need and more. I’ve rented a lot of cottages through the years and I must say this was the most beautiful. We planned to go to town in the morning and by the evening we were still at the cottage enjoying ourselves. We are also impressed with the contact and attention the agency made with us. I’ve never experienced the level they have to make sure you stay is going well. We will definitely be coming back. It’s great families, couples, a girls weekend or just reconnecting with loved ones.

What a jewel!

Our first impression was just”Wow”! That was from the outside. Going inside, there were more Wows! and “Look at this”, and “This place is awesome!” I would call the architecture and decor Scandinavian minimalist-in the best possible sense.The cottage is filled with light from the floor to ceiling windows. And we definitely got the message from the owners that they wanted us to enjoy ourselves and feel at home. We did both. Would highly recommend this cottage for a quiet getaway.

Poplar Woods is going to be popular!

Poplar Woods is a beautiful A-frame cottage in an idyllic location in the town of Bayfield. The owners carefully designed it to enhance the woods - both inside and out. Our family of four enjoyed an early summer week away. The cottage is brand new, bright, and clean. We felt at home with the mid-century modern decor. There was ample storage and it was easy to keep the cottage tidy. Beds are all very comfortable and both showers had good temperature regulation and water pressure. The kitchen is very well-equipped and nicely laid out. The cottage comes with a good selection of books and games. We enjoyed quiet mornings in the sunroom, walks around town, visits to the beach, and meals on the back deck. Highly recommended!
