About this property

Sunset Shores Retreat - Close to Port Elgin and Kincardine - dog friendly

Sunset Shores Retreat is a peaceful newly built lakeside property that provides a perfect getaway for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. The property is located right on the water's edge, offering picturesque views of the lake and the stunning sunsets that light up the sky. The spacious living areas are perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring the lake, while the fully equipped kitchen is ideal for preparing meals and enjoying them with family and friends.

This stunning waterfront cottage nestled on 3 acres in a secluded bay on Lake Huron. You'll feel like you're worlds away from the city as soon as you arrive. Soak in the beauty of cottage country with a hike or a swim, and lounge by the water searching for the many fossils that get washed in with the waves. Keep an eye out for bald eagles or deer during your stay. Enjoy breathtaking sunsets and occasional northern lights right on the beach, under the covered porch, or from the comfort of the air-conditioned space inside.

This brand new home is designed to comfortably accommodate up to 12 people with 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and two sets of pull-out couches. The main "great room" boasts extensive windows to take advantage of the 12' ceilings in the front of the cottage. The well-appointed kitchen features a 12' island, 48" gas range, and a 72" fridge/freezer, adding to the feel of staying in a truly great space. Everything in this home is clean and in great working order.

With two kitchens and living spaces, this cottage is perfect for multiple families or generations. Guests can choose to gather together in the main kitchen in the upper level or spread out and have breakfast on their own at a time that suits everyone best. Having enough space to both be together and spread out helps contribute to an ideal vacation for everyone.

MacGregor Park is just a short walk away, offering groomed trails and other amenities. There is no parking, gate, or admission on the side entrance, so when you enter here, you are entering a much less crowded area with more space to enjoy. Port Elgin is just 12 minutes away, where you can take advantage of the many restaurants, shopping, or spend a day enjoying ice cream and fries on the public beach. Beautiful Southampton is just another 10 minutes up the road if small beach towns are your thing.

There are also a couple of km of uninhabited water front that are perfect for a completely secluded waterfront walk.

Sunset Shores Retreat is a true oasis that needs to be experienced to be appreciated. Watching the sunset from your own little piece of paradise helps melt away the stress and causes people to connect, relax, and build lifelong memories together. What more could you want from a vacation?

Wonderful family vacation
Fabulous house with amazing views. The well equipped home ensured there was lots to do for a family of a wide range of ages. The proximity to the park for hiking and to Port Elgin for supplies and activities made for an ideal location. Great amenities.

Wonderful Holiday!
Our multigenerational family had a terrific week at Sunset Shores this summer - we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and it exceeded our expectations in every way. The house was modern, clean and comfortable with plenty of room for our group of 11 people. The finishes and appliances were new and high-end, so with the house being recently completed, it all felt very luxurious. It was a big bonus for us to have kitchens on both floors so we could make downstairs the early-bird breakfast/kid zone and upstairs the "quiet" area as some of us were coming from different time zones. Being lakefront the location was amazing. The park is just a few minutes walk down the road - great for birdwatching, mountain biking, jogging or just taking a stroll. There are only a few houses on the dead-end road so we usually had the whole beach to ourselves - it felt like we were somewhere remote at our own private getaway but with the conveniences of Port Elgin only 10 to 15min drive away with supermarkets, restaurants, Walmart, Canadian Tire etc. Heather and Graham were lovely, thoughtful hosts - easy to communicate with, responded quickly to questions and made us feel very welcomed. We spent every day using the canoes, paddleboards, looking for fossils, chilling and having sunset campfires. It was a wonderful holiday!
