The beach extends for miles in both directions and is ideal for swimming, lounging, sandcastle building, and relaxing sunset walks.

Alternatively, bring your own boat, kayak, or paddleboard to take full advantage of the beautiful freshwater lake!

Lake water is clean and warm, shallow and sandy at the shoreline and gradually deeper as you go out further. Great for kids/toddlers/non-swimmers in shallow area, or advanced swimmers out in the deep. On wavy days, water is great for bodysurfing, while calm days are perfect for sunning and relaxing - so bring your floaties!

If you enjoy day trips, we're located about 20 minutes drive from Sarnia, ON, with additional shopping and restaurants just across the border in Port Huron, USA. Grand Bend is another popular tourist destination with souvenirs, outdoor activities, bars, restaurants, and patios. Mini putt is our personal favourite.

Wonderful location
We had a lovely week at this property. 2 adults and 3 kids (5,7 & 8). Small cottage but enough room for a cozy week away from a busy life. Right on the lake, with a very sandy beach and shallow water for the kids to swim and play safely. We will absolutely come again.

July 2022 Family Stay
We stayed for a week with two young kids (3 and 5) and two adults. The house was clean with all amenities as listed. The hosts were very easy to communicate with via email or in person. The beach was perfect for little ones! Shallow water and beautiful sun sets. The park was so close and the kids loved the frog pond. Such a great stay and would highly recommend!!

Nice beach, friendly people
Beach was amazing! Cottage is quaint. Recommend no more than 4 people (best for two people). Cottage is located behind the main cottage but the people in the main cottage are very nice and give you privacy. Water is very shallow... perfect for kids or non swimmers (great for lounging right in the water)!

nice location although not accurately described
This property is advertised as beachfront. While it is near the beach it is tucked in beside a much larger property and is not really beachfront, but is beside a another property that is beachfront. The property also states it has a fire pit. I had expected to have a fire pit on the property. There is a communal fire pit.....but not one to gather around beside the cabin. The bed I slept in was comfortable. The other bedroom had beds that were very uncomfortable. My guests left early because they were not willing to sleep on it another night. Given that it was 2000. approx. for the week, it would be nice is the furnishings are comfortable. The living room futon and chair are both old and uncomfortable. The owners were pleasant and location lovely, but the add misrepresents the property. I was disappointed to have spent to much money and received so little.
