Mylestone – A Relaxing Cottage Retreat in Lion’s Head

Mylestone offers a peaceful, nature-filled cottage escape on the Bruce Peninsula, tucked into the calm setting of Myles Bay just minutes from the village of Lion’s Head. This welcoming retreat combines everything guests look for in a classic cottage getaway: quiet surroundings, warm shallow water, and easy access to the area’s top attractions.

Myles Bay is one of the peninsula’s hidden gems. Sheltered by forest and set along the clear waters of Lake Huron, the bay is known for its sandy, gently sloping shoreline—something rare on the Bruce. The water here is typically warmer and calmer than the open lake, making it ideal for swimming, especially for families with young children. Kayaking, paddleboarding, and floating along the shoreline are all popular ways to enjoy the bay, and even in peak summer, the area maintains a relaxed, low-traffic feel.

At Mylestone, you’ll enjoy the comfort of a cozy, well-equipped cottage surrounded by mature trees that provide privacy and a true sense of escape. The beach is just steps away, making it easy to spend your days by the water and your evenings around the fire. Outdoor space is perfect for barbecues, stargazing, and unwinding after a day of exploring.

The nearby village of Lion’s Head is only a short drive away and offers convenient amenities including a grocery store, LCBO, cafés, and a beloved ice cream shop. It’s also home to the Bruce Trail and the famous Lion’s Head Lookout, where dramatic cliffs and panoramic views overlook Georgian Bay. Day trips to Bruce Peninsula National Park, the Grotto, Tobermory, and Fathom Five National Marine Park are all within easy reach.

Ideal for families, couples, and small groups, Mylestone offers a quiet, comfortable base in one of the Bruce Peninsula’s most inviting bays—perfect for unplugging, reconnecting with nature, and enjoying cottage life at its best.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The host was welcoming and quick to answer any questions we had! The cottage was very clean and filled with an entire selection of kitchen ware and supplies to do laundry. There were also dozens of board games, puzzles, books, and movies. We didn’t have any small children with us but noticed there was a closet filled with a high chair and games for kids as well. Compared to other cottages we’ve stayed at in the past, the wifi was fast and the hot water and water pressure had no problems (even with six people showering). Overall the cottage was cozy and very pet friendly as we brought three dogs with us and we would recommend this stay to anyone! Genuine five star review :)
