Luxury Riverside Cottage - Come and enjoy our Shack on the River!
This stunning luxury cottage is located on the Ausable River at the mouth of Lake Huron in the beach town Port Franks. It is in the perfect location to view the most spectacular sunsets in Canada. You can kayak, fish, and view the many birds and wildlife on the river, enjoy the sandy beach nearby plus there are trails for hiking and biking. It is the ideal spot to make amazing memories for years to come.
The year-round cottage is truly gorgeous. It is a two-story open concept with floor-to-ceiling windows allowing an abundance of natural light. It has a fully equipped kitchen, sleeps 7 guests in beds, a large master bedroom with a balcony, a luxurious ensuite bathroom with a jetted tub, and an outside patio deck with a fire pit and BBQ. And for cool nights a gas fireplace in the family room. There are four kayaks and (occasionally one canoe) available for your use.
You will find Port Franks to be a charming community with hiking and biking trails, a huge sand dune to conquer, and a community centre with a playground and tennis court. Lake Huron boasts glorious sandy beaches with warm shallow waters perfect for families with children. And, if you want more adventure, you can always drive the 15 minutes down the road to Grand Bend boulevard and beach.
We all need something to make life interesting, engaging and enjoyable. Welcome to our Riverside Shack. Should you decide to stay we truly hope that it will be a BLESSING to you and bring a slice of JOY and BEAUTY into your life.

Margo was such a great host. Explained the ins and outs of the property very well, and made us feel exceptionally welcome. My mom, wife, and I were immediately at ease around her and her husband.Very clean and beautiful house—even nicer than in the pictures! And the sunset views were stunning. Just glorious. Would definitely go back, and would highly recommend!

The home provided everything we expected for our vacation and more. We enjoyed gorgeous sunsets, kayaking, perfect beach days, s'mores around the fire, and relaxing evening bike rides . The beds are extremely comfortable and the kitchen is fully equipped. The home is actually more lovely than it appears in the photos on the VRBO site. We really loved our vacation. In fact, we have already booked our summer 2027 stay. Thank you to the owners, who are so well organized we did not have to ask for anything. They did reach out to us to make sure all was well during our stay, which we appreciated.

Great location with great views
My family and I recently stayed and loved the house. The views were great and we wished we could have had a few more days to really enjoy the water. Margo was a great communicator and even mailed an item left behind. Great place to stay!

Returning visitors. After a week touring the wonders of Canada, the cottage was an instant wind down. Such a lovely place to unwind, relax and enjoy the tranquility of surrounding nature. Thank you Margo - till next time.

Great getaway
We had a great stay at this cottage on the river. We enjoyed the large kitchen and were able to cook an entire thanksgiving dinner for the five us there. We enjoyed walks down to the beach, sitting on the dock in the sun, and hiking in the nearby trails. The cottage was clean , the beds were comfy and it was a great place to relax and watch the sunset with a glass of wine.

Great stay!
My family and I greatly enjoyed our stay at this property. Margo was very accommodating. The property was as described and had a beautiful view of the water. We enjoyed the private beach nearby and Grand Bend Beach about 10-15 minute drive from the property.

Staying at the Riverside Cottage is like a step into the life you wish you could live year round. It has everything you could possibly want or need. The views are stunning and kayaking there is one of my favourite parts of the summer. Margo is a welcoming host. We will be back again!

Great cottage with all the amenities. Margo and her husband were very helpful and kind. We appreciated the two seater kayak so we could get out into the water as a whole family.

Beautiful cottage
This was a beautiful cottage on the canal that we all found so peaceful and comfortable. The interior of the cottage was very sheik and clean. Lots of space for the 7 of us to stay for a week. Close jaunt to the beach or we could lounge beside the canal on the large deck and enjoy the boats passing by. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you riverside shack!

Great May stay at riverside shack
We had an amazing time at the Riverside shack. The property is gorgeous, well decorated and well maintained. We loved the outside deck and spent hours with the binoculars watching the heron and various birds in the river. I took the kayak out several times. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked with appliances, dishes, pots and pans. I would stay here again.

Wonderful place and location
The sunset and the view are amazing, the kayaks very entertaining, and the host extremely welcoming, flexible and helpful. The kids had a lot of fun fishing, swimming and kayaking. The cottage is beautiful and has almost everything you can think of in case you forget something. We only spent 4 days there but we will be coming back for sure.

A simply wonderful retreat!
The Riverside Shack was anything but a shack! Everything was as advertised with accurate pictures. Beds were comfy and washrooms were very nice and well stocked with towels etc. We enjoyed the wildlife on the river while sitting on the patio and deck as well as while kayaking in the river. Beautiful beach and friendly people added to our enjoyment. Margo and Johnny were a lovely couple to communicate with. Will be very happy to return!
