4 Bedroom Cottage in Huron Shores

Welcome to Breakwater Bay ready for your next week getaway to sun, sand, the sound of waves and spectacular sunsets.
Situated on 5.5 acres of the north shore of Lake Huron, property is truly unique with an expansive beach for sunning, swimming, water sports or just relaxing. Amazingly, this gorgeous bay is completely private yet only 2 km from the quaint town of Thessalon for any necessities. Thessalon main street offers a well stocked grocery store, hardware store, pizza parlour, LCBO and very popular gift shop. Should you be interested in a workout instead of a playing on the beach, there is even a terrific town run fitness centre which offers really reasonable $5/day passes. 4 kayaks, 1 paddle board, many floaties, a badminton/volleyball net all available on the beach to keep your afternoons busy. Should you enjoy campfires firewood is provided.
Well maintained and equipped A-frame cottage has 3 bedrooms suitable for 6 adults and an additional sleeping space on indoor deck with twin single futon sleepers. These futons work well for children or teens as additional beds and/or for catching up on work or for games. Dining table seats 8 comfortably for family meals or enjoy the south west facing deck with picnic table. WiFi and a dedicated small work space with an incredible view. Stone and propane BBQ's for grilling. A second cottage (ours also) sits on the far west edge of the bay 140 metres but is not visible from Breakwater. Breakwater has access to the full beach and is very private as it is at the end of a short cottage road.
Washer and dryer available is available for your use in accessible room at back of second cottage.
We love furry friends and with all this space you can let your furry friends wander without worry.
New in 2026 - While the breeze off of Lake Huron generally keeps the cottage cool, we have added three portable AC units for the bedrooms useful on very warm days.
New in 2021 - If you are keen on your Timmy's - a Tim Horton's and gas station with convenience store were recently added at the west edge of Thessalon a 1 km walk away. Many guests have told us they enjoy this new addition to the town.
Breakwater Guest Tips booklet is shared two weeks prior to your stay to ensure you have all the details for a terrific visit. Another copy of this booklet plus a small appreciation gift will be found on the dining table when you arrive. No need to connect with anyone, the key will be left in a secure place for your arrival. Just return it there please upon departure with our thanks.
