Why they chose this property

We love Cove Cottage’s location in the peaceful waterfront community of Lighthouse Cove. Nestled along a scenic canal system connected to Lake St. Clair, it’s the perfect place to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy waterfront living.

Start your morning with coffee on the dock while watching swans, herons, turtles, and other wildlife. Spend the day kayaking through the canals, heading out on the boat, casting a fishing line, or simply relaxing by the water. In the evening, gather around the fire pit, unwind in the hot tub, or take in a beautiful Lake St. Clair sunset.

Lighthouse Cove is known for its boating culture and world-class fishing. Anglers travel from across Canada and the United States to fish for muskie, bass, walleye, perch, and more. Bring your own boat or book a local fishing charter to experience it for yourself.

Some of our favourite local experiences include:

🍦 Community Store & Ice Cream Stand – A summer tradition just a short walk from the cottage.

🗼 Lighthouse Conservation Area – Visit the historic lighthouse, public boat launch, and enjoy scenic views where the Thames River meets Lake St. Clair.

🚤 Boating, Kayaking & Canoeing – Explore the canals or spend the day on Lake St. Clair.

🎣 World-Class Fishing – One of North America’s premier freshwater fisheries.

🚲 Walking & Cycling – Quiet roads and waterfront views are perfect for exploring.

🦅 Wildlife & Birdwatching – Watch for swans, great blue herons, bald eagles, turtles, deer, and other local wildlife.

🍷 Explore the Region – Belle River, Essex County wineries and breweries, Point Pelee National Park, golf courses, beaches, and great local restaurants are all nearby.

Whether you’re planning a fishing trip, family vacation, or relaxing getaway, Lighthouse Cove offers the perfect balance of recreation, relaxation, and natural beauty. It’s the kind of place where life naturally slows down and the best memories are made together.
