“Sometimes getting away was all that was needed.” – Doreen, 2022 Guest
Welcome to Eagle Bay, a true luxury winter waterfront sanctuary on the Bruce Peninsula—where comfort, privacy, and breathtaking snowy landscapes come together to create the perfect seasonal escape.
This spectacular bi-level cottage features a massive great hall with soaring ceilings, an open-concept chef’s kitchen with an eating bar, a spacious dining area, and two inviting lounges—each anchored by a cozy fireplace. Whether you’re gathering for warm meals, sharing stories after a snowy adventure, or sipping cocoa by the fire, every space has been thoughtfully designed for relaxation and connection.
Winter Luxury, Elevated
★ Saltwater Hot Tub: Slip into the steaming outdoor hot tub as snowflakes fall around you, surrounded by peaceful forest and frozen lake views.
★ Wood-Fired Sauna: Nestled just steps from the cottage, the cedar sauna offers a soothing spa-like escape after a day of winter exploration.
★ Southern-Style 4-Season Porch: A bright, cozy retreat for reading, morning coffee, or simply watching the snow-covered peninsula in comfort.
★ Peninsula Room with Sunset Views: Take in breathtaking winter sunsets painting Lake Huron in shades of gold, pink, and icy blue.
A Home Designed for Togetherness
With three comfy, well-appointed bedrooms, warm lighting, plush bedding, and rustic-modern décor, Eagle Bay ensures restful nights after cold-weather adventures.
On the lower level, you’ll find a welcoming lounge with a fireplace, a games area, and plenty of space for the whole group to gather for movie nights, board games, or après-ski relaxation.
Winter Adventures at Your Doorstep
Your crew will love the perfect balance of privacy and convenience. Eagle Bay feels wonderfully secluded, yet it’s only a short winter drive from the friendly villages of Tobermory, Lion’s Head, and other charming communities.
Spend your days:
Cross-country skiing along scenic trails
Snowshoeing through quiet cedar forests
Exploring frozen shorelines and coastal lookouts
Visiting local shops and cafés in their peaceful off-season charm
Then return home to unwind in complete comfort—sauna, hot tub, fireside lounging, and all.
