Gorgeous spot
An adorable waterfront cottage, a step out to the beach and dock, kayaks and bikes to borrow- and stocked up with firewood. My kids loved the “kids clubhouse” as they named it- toys, books and movies. My whole family loved this spot- a beautiful place, we would come every year if we could.

This is a rustic campsite. The cabin has everything you need for a fire on the beach sitting in the screen porch.

I love this place! Quiet, peaceful and an amazing place.to just.sit and relax. The cottages are.a home away from home but better! The view of the lake is amazing and at night time the stars are beautiful. Everything you need is there and there is plenty to do. The owners are phenomenal! I highly.recoend this place hands down! Will be back again and again!!

Incredible value! Friendly property managers, a well outfitted and cute cabin, and plenty of activities to do make this a wonderful stay. The best feature is definitely the gorgeous environment and all the ways you can spend time reconnecting with nature and loved ones while still feeling taken care of with comforts of home. Bravo!

These cottages and the island are a piece of the history of this area and we were thrilled with our stay. Very rustic and unspoiled - Pat made us feel 100% welcome :) Everything we could want or need was readily available … canoes, bicycles, wood for the outdoor campfire or woodstove in the cottage all included - she even made sure we knew where to find the best view of the sunset! We wanted a rustic, comfy, unspoiled place to stay and this place delivered that experience 100%. We would have loved to stay longer and experience staying at the lighthouse that’s for sure!

Pat was incredibly welcoming and heartwarming, the place is cozy and the view is spectacular. Came in on a rainy day, wish I was able to stay longer it was truly breath taking! I could’ve stayed there for a week or longer. Didn’t want to leave when it was time to go. Absolutely loved my time at Bruce Bay cottage. Hope to see you again!

This property is a rustic cabin right on the lake. There are lights, water, power so you are not really roughing it. But wood stove for heat so make sure you have something to light stove if you need it. Has canoes, kayaks to use free of charge of you want.

What an amazing and unique spot. Extremely hospitable hosts with everything you need for a good time at the cottage is right at your finger tips. Enjoyed sitting in the beach having a fire under the stars after exploring the numerous trails and beaches on the property. Highly recommended, would stay here again in a heart beat.

It is a cabin that is right on the North Channel of Lake Huron. It is a quiet place with a lot of charm.
Will go back again.
