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 the property manager 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.

Once again we loved our stay at Poplar Woods. This location with the woodlot right behind the cottage truly is private and serene. The cottage is so lovely, spotless clean and inviting from the minute you walk in. Furniture is all so comfy - including the beds. The new sauna was a hit and got well used- especially loved by our 12 and 15 year old grandchildren. The upper floor is every bit as lovely and comfortable as the main floor and the lofty sitting area with tv cosy. Love it. Will note though that the only television is on the upper floor and anyone with mobility issues may have trouble getting up/down the rather steep stairs. Thank you to CottageStays once again for being such a super cottage management company that really shows they care that you enjoy your stay from the minute you book and on through the stay.

Our stay was amazing - the house was sparkling clean and cozy. We had everything we needed in the kitchen - there was so much storage! We had home cooked meals everyday and spent our time sipping drinks on the deck, playing chess by the fireplace, or enjoying the sauna, which was our favourite highlight of this property. Our dog loved the fresh air and proximity to the beach and hiking trails. The town was also just a short drive away and was very quaint. Jennifer was a responsive host and put in so much care and detail for the place, we felt welcomed and right at home. Would definitely come back!
