Welcome to Holley Lodge, nestled in historic Bayfield and steps away from charming shops, restaurants, library, parks and the beach. Established in 1922, Holley Lodge is a quintessential Bayfield cottage with its lake stone pillars and fireplace. While the cottage has been fully renovated, it still holds the charm of days gone by. This 4-bedroom, 2 ½ bath cottage is fully winterized and is available for rent any time of the year. A main floor master bedroom and ensuite makes this cottage easy to enjoy for guests of all ages. Holley Lodge is a perfect setting for summer or winter fun. Rinse off after a day at the beach in our outdoor shower, and enjoy making smores over a fire in the flagstone firepit. Lawn games, beach chairs, umbrellas and bikes are available for your enjoyment as you discover this quaint lakeside town. For those wanting a quieter vacation - curl up with a book or play a game in the screened in porch or grab an afternoon nap in the hammock. While staying at Holley Lodge, guests are welcome to enjoy the selection of books and games we have in our library nook. Enjoy the world-famous Bayfield Sunsets at Pioneer Park, a short 5-minute stroll down the street. Pioneer Park hosts many family-friendly activities throughout the summer months including morning yoga, an evening of painting the sunset and musical entertainment to name a few. Bayfield is also the home to a Friday farmer's market, Bayfield Fall Fair (August), Vette-fest, antique show and a beautiful marina with a Blue Flag beach. Nestled half-way between Goderich and Grand Bend, Holley Lodge is the perfect vacation spot to enjoy not only our town, but the offerings of surrounding towns as well.
In the colder months, you can curl up in front of the lake stone fireplace (natural gas) and watch a movie from our large selection of DVDs. For younger guests, or those young at heart, wii games are also available.
When not rented, Holley Lodge is our family's second home. We hope you enjoy its warmth and charm as much as we do and that your family creates many magical memories here!
We do not charge HST on our rentals.

| We came to Bayfield for my son's wedding! Neil and Leslie embraced our visit and did not disappoint. They meant our needs, even accommodated our additional canine and groom request! It was easily evident, they invest in providing a charming, unique, and nostalgic cottage experience.

| In short, 10/10. Need more Okay, we've been visiting the town of Bayfield for over 30 years now and love it. We've mostly stayed at the recommended Little Inn but over the years we've gradually started trying out a variety of vacation rentals within the town. We think we've found the best! Neil and Leslie's "lodge" is incredibly cared for and extremely well-appointed. You'll want for nothing. It's very apparent that they take immense pride in their home. It perfectly blends its preserved heritage with modern comforts yet retaining that lodge-like feel and character. We highly and unequivocally recommend it.

Owner response: Thank you for your kind comments and for noticing all the details that Leslie focuses so much on. It was a pleasure hosting you again and we definitely hope you keep coming back! | |

| Great rental in a great little village. The house was very spacious and well equipped with everything we needed. It is very close walk to the downtown and the beach. Neil and Leslie were wonderful to deal with and were very attentive to all our needs and requests. Our family of 4 loved our time here, and we highly recommend it.

Owner response: Thanks Mark! Your stay with us was the first longer term stay that we hosted and we really appreciated how kind and respectful you and your family were. Thanks again! | |

| My gal pals and I get together the same weekend every year in Bayfield. This year we chose Holley Lodge as our getaway place to stay. From the listing pictures we all knew it would be lovely. The pictures do not do the cottage justice. Quiet Elegance, beautifully appointed, fabulous decor and spotless.
The whole cottage has a calming effect and the beach stone fireplace is a show stopper. Comfortable beds and lovely linens and towels top everything all off. Hats off to Neil and Lesley and thank you for allowing us to share your beautiful cottage, you are both terrific hosts!! We are looking forward to returning next May 2027!! Jane, Annie, Gayle, Lynn and Jan.

| Holley Lodge was absolutely lovely. We enjoyed cozy evenings by the fireplace when the weather turned cool, and on the warmer day, the screened-in front porch was the perfect place to relax.
The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the cottage is thoughtfully decorated with charming antiques throughout. It was also fully equipped with everything we could possibly need, which made our stay even more comfortable and convenient.
The location is ideal, with beautiful sunset views right from the porch and just a short walk to Main Street for shopping.
We had a fantastic stay—the owner was not only excellent with communication but also very accommodating. We'd love to return next year—definitely a 5-star experience!
