Butternut Cottage is a lovely 4 bedroom family getaway steps away from the sandy shores of Lake Huron, in Oakwood Park, a private cottage neighbourhood adjacent to Grand Bend. Built in 1924, with only a handful of owners, it has been renovated and restored into a cozy haven over the past two years. Situated in a quiet, peaceful setting, the cottage is best suited for couples, families, and small groups of mature visitors (think book clubs, crafting, wine drinking in cute boho/ granny chic decor).
Check out all the photos on our Facebook page and see our Instagram profile for reno/decor progress (handle is @butternut.cottage) We took this cottage down to the studs and rebuilt it leaving the original character intact. Here's what Butternut Cottage has to offer:
-Situated in quiet, peaceful, family-friendly Oakwood Park with a private beach (no crowds, even at the peak of summer). -Reliable Wi-Fi if someone needs to work remotely. One hour to London/Sarnia/Stratford for commuting to work. -Well suited to a family with multiple kids or two small families. Also works great for a couple or family just using the main floor. -Ideal for girls' weekends, low-key bachelorette getaways + anyone who appreciates boho granny chic, cottagecore vibes. -Note: this is not a party cottage and not a late night neighbourhood. It's very quiet in the evenings.
-4 bedrooms total, on 2 floors - sleeps 9, NO PETS please. 1. 1 queen bed
2. 2 twin beds 3. 1 double bed 4. 1 queen and 1 twin bed
