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.
Leslie and Neil Duffy

REVIEWS | Sandy | |
| Our stay at Holley Lodge was amazing. We spent 3 nights over News Years with our dear friends. The house was very clean and welcoming. Neil and Leslie have everything you could possibly need and they added some lovely touches. There was more than enough room for the four to relax, enjoy the fireplace and cook up some great meals. We enjoyed exploring downtown Bayfield and the local parks. Holley Lodge is a perfect family destination any time of the year. We will most definitely return.

| My sister and I along with our sweet little Lily recently stayed at Holley Lodge cottage for a weekend. It was such a lovely spot, we felt very comfortable and the cozy setting of the fireplace was so relaxing and welcoming. The location is perfect, just a few minutes walking distance to the shops and restaurants in beautiful Bayfield. Thank you Neil and Leslie for always being available 24/7 if we had any questions. Our stay was exactly what we needed!

| We would just like to say that we all had an amazing 2 weeks stay at Holley Lodge cottage everything you could need was available,spacious, comfortable and plenty to entertain with games for inside and out, records and dvds if needed, home from home. Bayfield is such a tranquil and surreal place to spend time visiting family and spending time enjoying the surroundings with a short walk to the marina and main st. Neil and Leslie were very helpful and informative and always at the other end of the phone if we needed anything. Thank you for making our stay the best and hope to stay again in the future.

| Holley Lodge has gone to great lengths to make it the ideal place to spend a week or two in Bayfield. The cottage has amble room for families to spend time together or find a quiet spot in the house to relax. The kitchen is fully equipped as well.
What stands out for Holley Lodge are the details! They really have something for everyone. The tandem bikes are always a great way to get out and enjoy the Bayfield area. Like family board games or puzzles? The cottage has those too. Into classical music? The cottage has a record player with some of the classics. Got young kids? Yup. They have a WII game system as well if you want to catch up on Mario Brothers. Into Smores? The fire pit in the back yard gives a great way to end the day.
Bottom line is the cottage is a great experience and we look forward every year to our annual trip to Holley Lodge!

Owner response: Hi Chuck - it was so nice to welcome you and your family back again. Thanks for the comments on all our details. We never know what is used and what isn't!! | |

| It's evident that Neil and Leslie aim to provide a perfect experience - from their very first communication with prospective renters, through to their personal welcome and the generous provision of everything one can think of in the home itself - and they really do succeed in doing so. The house is spacious, comfortable, clean, well-appointed inside and out, and within an easy walk (or bike ride on the provided bicycles) to downtown and to the beachfront at Pioneer Park. Neil and Leslie are personable and welcoming hosts, and clearly invested in making sure their guests enjoy their stay. We unreservedly recommend these hosts and this cottage, and we hope to return many times over the upcoming years.
