Fiddlers Green - Tragically Hip themed cottage

WIFI | AC | Fireplace | 1 Dog Allowed

There's a cottage named after a Tragically Hip song, where every bedroom door you open is
another song title — and somehow it never feels like a gimmick. It feels exactly right. I fell in
love with Fiddler's Green the moment I walked in. It sits in the heart of Bayfield, a short walk
from everything and a world away from the noise. I brought this place into the CottageStays
family because I believe a great Canadian getaway should feel like one: warm, a little proud,
and entirely your own for the week. Pull up a chair at the long dining table and stay a while.
That’s the whole idea.

INSIDE:
I love walking into a kitchen that’s actually ready for you — and I’ve made sure this one is. The
galley kitchen runs the length of the wall, separate enough that whoever’s cooking stays in the
conversation, and it’s stocked from the Keurig to the big plates you’ve been waiting to set out.
The living room has an electric fireplace that earns its keep on cool evenings and a Smart TV for
the movies you keep meaning to watch. The dining room table with its bench and seven chairs is the heart
of the cottage. Someone will be there all weekend

SLEEPING SPACES
Each of the 3 bedrooms are intricately themed after a Tragically Hip song, adding to the cottage's whimsical nature

Premier has a Queen bed "Wheat Kings"
BR2 Queen bed "Day for Night"
BR3 Queen bed "Cordelia"
Living room has a queen cabinet bed

2 Bathrooms: 4 piece and a 3 piece bathroom

OUTSIDE
Outside, you'll find a serene outdoor deck with a BBQ so you can grill up some steaks while enjoying the peace of Bayfield. There is ample seating and another nice dining table so you can all eat together. Afternoons here are usually spent playing a game of basketball, or enjoying an afternoon nap in the hammock
There’s also a private lounge area with café lighting so you can chat/laugh into the evening!

NOTE: there is no firepit here

The property is also within walking distance to Tuyll street where you will find several beach accesses. The lakebed can be sandy or stoney depending on what the lake gives you that day. But it sure is fun to try to find the ever changing sandbars. Generally you will find sand 3ft out. It's fun to go stone collecting - Lake Huron is a geologists paradise! Just bring some water shoes. The nice thing is, it's not weedy or slimy at all.

EXPERIENCE BAYFIELD
The pace of life slows down in Bayfield. When you vacation here, it's easy to experience each day to its fullest. Take a 10 minute stroll to village downtown to fine exquisite dining restaurants/bars and cafes, from pub fare to fine dining. Many boutique shops to browse that unique find, or one-of-a-kind art pieces. Or take a bike ride and see the sights of Bayfield, such as the splash pad at Clan Gregor Sq. or Pioneer park for a pickup game of volleyball, or the shores of gorgeous Lake Huron for a beach day and follow up with the best sunsets in Ontario! Bring your kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, boat, hiking shoes and escape to some good adventures and make memories!

Visit during the off-season to catch favorite annual events like Christmas in Bayfield or for a girl's getaway weekend—we're happy to suggest our favorite local spas, wineries and breweries, shops, and yoga classes.

Bayfield is a "Blue Community" - visitors won't find bottled water in public facilities or at events but they will find a portable refillable water bottle station operated by pedal-power and five water bottle refill stations at public facilities located throughout the village.

ABOUT YOUR HOST

Now more than ever, everyone is in need of the kind of peace and quiet that escaping to the lake can bring. It's my absolute privilege to be the one to provide families and friends a special place to gather and create memories while exploring an area so near and dear to me.

Family Getaway

The cottage was a delight, it was clean, well laid out and spacious. The grandkids loved the bunkie and claimed it as their space. The deck and outside eating areas were well used. I would recommend Fiddler’s Green as a great place to stay.

Ideal Cottage and Location

A very charming cottage which is a perfect location for our family. Close to the play park, downtown and not far from the beach access points. It works ideally for a family with diverse interests on any given day. We have spent a week each of the last three years and will likely keep returning as long as it is possible.

Bayfield getaway was lovely

Although the weather wasn’t always in our favour the lovely Fiddlers Green was ideal for our family time with my mum (91) and daughter (28). Incredibly clean, well appointed, beautiful gate da with two patio areas to enjoy outdoor drinks and eating. Lovely to walk to beach, sunset at Pioneer Park, Main St restaurants and shops. Any questions were answered promptly.

Great location, plenty of room for varied needs of senior guests. Comfortable and well appointed.

Seven seniors, siblings and partners had a reunion at Fiddler’s. We didn’t have good weather but we had plenty of opportunity to catch up with stories from our brother from Thailand and sister from Vancouver. The men cooked in the well equipped kitchen and the women tried not to get in the way! Excellent music provided by Alexa welcomed us and was the perfect background. Hope to return before another 8 years go by.

Weekend Getaway

Fiddler's Green was a lovely clean cottage not too far from Bayfield Main St. We had great weather, so we walked everywhere. We would have liked a fire pit, and found that we were very close to the neighbours. We didn't realize this until we got there. We also were surprised about all of the fees and the extra linen costs. This was our first rental through VRBO so maybe this is standard. Despite how it expensive it seemed for a weekend, we would recommend this cottage, it would be great for a group.

Everything Needed and More!

We enjoyed a one week stay with our elderly parents and pup, Sam, in tow. Our hosts Jennifer and Shauna made sure that we had everything we needed on and more - Sam enjoyed his welcome cookie and we appreciated the specialty chocolate! Thank you! Fiddler's Green is located at an excellent location - about a 3 minute walk to Clangregor Square and less than 10 to Pioneer Park. It has a wonderful back deck and side patio for reading and dining. Beds are very comfortable with various pillow selections and blankets. We didn't cook in but the kitchen is well-equipped and a BBQ is located on the back deck. Terrific week - thank you!

Lovely Clean Cottage

We are a group of 6 seniors, all over 70. The cottage was perfect for us.....just a few steps in the front door and 2 steps out the back to the private deck. The cottage is bright, very clean with comfortable furniture. Kitchen is well stocked with lots of glasses, mugs, plates, bowels and cutlery. All appliances were clean and new or well cared for. The fridge was completely empty....which is a bonus as far as we are concerned. Many rentals have food left in the fridge which we would never use. The cottage is not crowded with "stuff", so there is room for you to spread out your "stuff". Another bonus for us. Quiet residential area in May. We hope to be back in the fall. Thank you for sharing this wonderful spot.
