About this property

Twilight Haven – Where Family Fun Meets Lake Life

WIFI | AC | Electric Fireplace | 1 Non-Shedding Dog Allowed

Looking for a chill spot the whole crew will love? Twilight Haven is your go-to family cottage between Kincardine and Inverhuron. Splash at the beach, play yard games, bike the trails, or roast marshmallows under the stars.

INSIDE:
Walk through the front door and you’ll be greeted by the soft hum of quiet, the smell of fresh pine, and a warm, open space filled with natural light. The kitchen and dining area are perfect for casual breakfasts, pancake flipping, and planning your next beach adventure around the big island. The dining table seats six — perfect for family meals and late-night card games.

The living room invites you in with two cushy couches and the gentle glow of the electric fireplace. This is where you’ll gather for movie marathons, rainy day laughs, or just to unwind after a beach day. There’s even a dedicated games and puzzle table, always ready for a new challenge or quiet bonding time.

SLEEPING SPACES:
Premier Bedroom has Queen Bed with desk and private access to the patio
Bedroom 2 - Queen Bed
Bedroom 3 - Queen Bed

3 Piece Bathroom with Shower/Tub Combo
Half Bath

Bunkie has a King Bed and 3 Piece Bathroom

OUTSIDE:
The back patio is your home base for relaxation and connection. You can start your morning with coffee on the “honeymoon deck”, sneak in a nap in the hammock, or cozy up with a book on the outdoor couch shaded by an umbrella.

When it’s time to eat, fire up the gas BBQ and gather around the 4-person patio table for easy family meals. The kids (and kids-at-heart) can run free in the yard, challenge each other to a game of ladderball, or chase the dog under the trees. As night falls, light the firepit, toast marshmallows, and let the conversation drift under the stars.

NOTE: 2 min walk to Lake access and approx. 25 stairs to the beach. 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.

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.

Cottage was large and clean. Lots of room. Bunkie does not have AC but was good for 3 of our 5 nights. Large yard for the dogs. Beach was a short walk away. Lots of beach, and not many people.
