Come visit the beautiful historic town of Bayfield and stay in our very chic family friendly cottage by the lake, affectionally known as the Sugar Shack. Just a one-minute walk to the beach and a short stroll and/or bike ride to the village square where you can enjoy local shops and restaurants. Stay in, cozy up and enjoy family time with some arcade games & vinyl, BBQ on the patio, relax in the hot tub, watch the kids play on the playset or light the campfire and enjoy the starry nights.

When you first arrive you will use your smart key code to enter which is active from 4pm on you check in date to 10am on the day of your check out. You will be greeted with an open concept, living room, kitchen and dining space complete with a large screen TV (w/ Netflix and Disney +), an arcade game, record player and gas fireplace. Down the hall there is a mudroom to hide all the stuff, a powder room, a second access to the back porch and full-size laundry hiding behind a cute barn door. Our main bathroom is clean and modern and has a dual rain / handheld shower head and is enclosed with a sliding glass door. Next, we have the 'Nautical room' with bunch beds, a nook for the kids to chill, and toys and books for them to enjoy. At the end of the hall there is a linen closet with extra towels and blankets if you need them, and some board games... note the Starwars / 80s theme. Then we have the 'Pineapple Room' (Master) with a king size bed and the softest sheets ever, and a desk so you can work from home Speaking of, the internet is 50 fiber and it works great. Finally, the 'Fern and Fawn Room' with double bed and Brooklinen sheets (mmm). Head out back, and chill on the deck, where you can grill on the BBQ and sit down to a dining table that seats 6, shaded with a large umbrella, or relax in the hot tub while taking in the colors of the beautiful Lake Huron sunset. The backyard is spacious and well-kept with privacy hedges surrounding it. Towards the back there is a small playground/swing set for the kids and a fire pit. As if that were not enough, we have a beautiful porch to enjoy your morning coffee and watch all the passersby, or peak down the end of the street and see the lake horizon. Take a 1 min walk towards it and get a gorgeous view of the water or take the slightly adventure hike down the 'kind of' steep hill and enjoy the beach firsthand.

    We booked this house for a friends weekend and it was perfect, everything you could possibly need is thought of and made it very easy to have a stress free weekend. The decor is also adorable and it is obvious that the host put a lot of effort into making sure people of all ages and with varying interests can have a good time!

    We loved our stay at the Sugar Shack! Very clean, well laid out and the little things (robes in the closet, house slippers for the hot tub, etc.) were such a nice touch. The retro record player (and a great selection of records) put it over the top - made our evenings even more fun listening to some of the oldies. Would definitely come back!

    This getaway was for a girls weekend away. We travel every year for our weekend and have stayed in the area before. We have rented MANY places over the years and I can assure you, this was the BEST place we have stayed! It is so clean and pristine! There were so many areas that showed such attention to detail. The kitchen is well appointed and everything you need is there! I love to cook and we typically always eat in. It was a breeze, since everything I needed was there! We loved everything about the Sugar Shack! We slept like babies in those comfy beds and enjoyed the amenities provided. We are already looking to book it again for next year! Thanks Betty, you were great to communicate with and we look forward to returning to your perfect little piece of paradise!

    My first time using Vrbo -- won't be my last! Fantastic little cottage, close to our event venues, and full of thoughtful touches. Thanks to our host for making our stay so comfortable. Great record selection too!

    Kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans and basic spices. Appliances were excellent - stove/oven and dishwasher in good shape and easy to use. There is a microwave that we didn't use. There was a Britta in the fridge. There is no drip coffee maker, instead a small french press, a Keurig machine and a small mocha pot. We used the BBQ on both nights, it's gas and super easy to use.

    This cottage was excellent for our group of 5 women for a girls weekend. It was very clean and had everything we needed for the stay. The kitchen was well appointed. The bathrooms were spotless and the bedding was very clean and comfortable. The gas fireplace and hot tub was a warm touch!!!

    Wow!!! Being our 1st Vrbo stay for our 29th Wedding Anniversary, Betty was the most Incredible host. Our communications were many, but effortless and extremely quick and helpful. I cannot begin to elaborate on how well maintained this property is, the Magickal properties of this home are incredible and are many (the singing microwave still makes me smile). The location to the beach is wonderful and so immediate, but offers a few options. So tranquil and relaxing, and a bird watchers dream! I cannot say enough good things regarding our host Betty, as she is SO incredible to deal with and it was truly a home away from home' experience. Thanks again Betty, and your attention to detail was absolutely a key to our successful vacation. Looking forward to coming back again!!! Thank you again, so much!!!!!
