Located just a short drive from Chief’s Cottage, Sauble Beach is one of Ontario’s most beloved summer destinations. Known for its laid-back atmosphere, friendly locals, and over 11 kilometres of sandy shoreline, it’s the perfect place to enjoy everything from sunbathing and swimming to paddleboarding and sunset strolls.

🏖 A Classic Beach Town Vibe
Sauble Beach is the kind of place where time slows down. The main strip is lined with charming beach shops, casual eateries, and classic ice cream stands — all buzzing with energy during the summer months. You’ll find fish and chips joints, local artisan vendors, and great spots to grab a burger after a long day in the sun.

Despite its popularity, Sauble maintains a small-town charm. The streets are walkable, and there’s a sense of nostalgia in the air — perfect for families, couples, or anyone looking to unplug.

🛶 Outdoor Adventures Await
Beyond the beach, the area is a playground for outdoor lovers. The Sauble River is great for canoeing or fishing, and you’re never far from a trailhead — perfect for hiking or birdwatching in the surrounding forests and conservation areas.

Nearby, you’ll also find:

Sauble Falls Provincial Park – beautiful waterfalls and shaded walking trails

Lake Huron sunsets – some of the best in the province

Golf courses, mini-golf, and go-karts for all ages

Seasonal events like sandcastle contests, car shows, and night markets

🧺 Essentials and Amenities
The town has all the basics: a grocery store, LCBO/Beer Store, gas station, and pharmacy, so you don’t have to travel far for essentials. There’s even a farmer’s market during peak season offering fresh produce and baked goods.

Chief’s Cottage combines old-school charm with practical comfort. The living and dining area is the heart of the cottage — a large, open space with wood-paneled walls, and a mix of vintage furniture. There’s plenty of seating with couches, armchairs, and a long dining table that can seat your whole group for meals or card games.

The kitchen is clean and simple, with white cabinetry, tile backsplash, and all the essentials for preparing meals — a full-size stove, fridge, and plenty of counter space. You’ll find cookware and dishware, but don’t expect high-end finishes; this is a back-to-basics setup.

Off the main hallway are four small bedrooms, each with a bed (some doubles, some queens), dressed in handmade or vintage-style quilts. The rooms are modest but functional, with natural light and wood paneling that creates a warm, cabin-like feel.

The bathroom has been updated with a clean, tiled walk-in shower and modern fixtures — one of the few modern touches in an otherwise classic space.

Outdoor Living
Step outside to a screened-in porch — perfect for relaxing with a book, escaping the bugs, or enjoying the sounds of nature. There’s a large grassy yard with trees surrounding the cottage, offering privacy and space to unwind. A picnic table and a couple of Muskoka chairs provide spots to sit and chat around a fire pit (bring your own firewood).

There’s even a small outbuilding for storage or gear, and enough space to park multiple vehicles.

Please Note
No air conditioning.

Rustic atmosphere — furniture and finishes are well-loved and functional, not fancy.

Non-potable water — guests must bring their own drinking water.

Limited tech — there’s a TV, but this is a great place to unplug.

Chief’s Cottage offers a genuine, unplugged cottage experience — ideal for anglers, families, and friend groups who value space, simplicity, and the charm of a bygone era.

Getting Around Sauble Beach

No Public Transit – Plan to Drive
The Sauble Beach area does not have a public transit system, so having a car is essential. Whether you're heading into town for groceries, visiting the beach, or exploring nearby attractions like Sauble Falls or Wiarton, a personal vehicle is the most convenient way to get around.

Chief’s Cottage is located in a quiet, forested area, so while it’s peaceful and private, it’s not walkable to the main beach strip. Expect a 5 to 10-minute drive to get into the heart of Sauble Beach.

🚲 Biking
During the summer, biking is a popular way to explore the area. The roads are generally bike-friendly, and many visitors bring their own bicycles to cruise along the beach strip or visit local trails. Just note that there are no designated bike lanes, so caution is advised on busier roads.

🚶 Walking Locally
If you're staying at Chief’s Cottage or nearby, walking is great for short distances — perhaps to nearby cottages or wooded paths — but less practical for errands or beach trips unless you're up for a long trek.

🅿️ Parking
Sauble Beach offers ample paid parking near the main beach entrance and along Lakeshore Blvd. You can purchase daily or weekly passes through local kiosks or mobile apps. During peak season, spots can fill quickly, so early arrival is recommended, especially on weekends.

Occupancy: Up to 8 Guests

Welcome to your rustic getaway! This cottage is a true back-to-basics experience — perfect for guests looking to unplug and enjoy the charm of simple cottage life. Before you book, please read the details carefully to make sure it's the right fit for your trip.

Important Notes:
No air conditioning – it’s all about fresh air and cool breezes here.

Very rustic – think of it as camping with a roof! This is not a luxury stay.

Bring your own drinking water – the tap water is not safe for consumption.

Classic old cottage scent – there’s that familiar musty smell throughout (just part of the vintage charm!).
