MacArthur Park
Our host, Zac, was very informative. The cottage was exactly as described on VRBO, beautiful and tranquil, and very close to Bayfield Main Street, within walking distance. We would love to come back in the summer!

About the host

Hosted by Zac Turner

Host profile image
My sister and I purchased this cottage from our grandfather's estate in October of 2020 with the intent of turning it into a cottage rental. Prior to becoming a cottage rental, the cottage was owned by our grandparents, Robert & Doris MacArthur. Growing up we made many wonderful memories at “Camp Grandma". We enjoyed tea parties and painting on the back deck that overlooks Lake Huron, playing board games on the screened in porch on rainy days and took short strolls up to the Heritage Bayfield Main Street! Our family recounts wonderful memories playing pool in the rec room, fishing on the Bayfield River or watching the sunset over the lake while roasting marshmallows over the fire!

Our grandparents' wish was that this cottage continues to be cherished and enjoyed, just as our family has done over the past 25 years. Our hope is that your stay will create precious memories that will last a lifetime!

Why they chose this property

Bayfield is a charming jewel on the Lake Huron coastline. It is a dynamic entertainment hub with events and festivals in town all year long. From the popular “Christmas in Bayfield” to Canada Day fireworks, Bayfield is the perfect vacation destination for any time of the year.

This cottage has the best view in all of Bayfield. Our floor-to-ceiling windows along the lake side of the cottage five you a fantastic view of the marina. We are also one of only three lake level cottages. Say goodbye to walking down almost 100 steps to get to the beach!

What makes this property unique

We are the only lake level, lake front cottage rental in Bayfield! You will surely not find a better view in Bayfield!
