Your group's Lake Simcoe getaway — a spacious, family-friendly custom home where everyone can spread out, stay up late, and actually relax. Sleeps up to twelve.
Two separate living rooms mean the game can play in one room while the kids — or the quiet ones — take the other. An open-concept kitchen and dining area anchors the meals and the hangouts, and the backyard takes over from there: a large deck, room to roam, and a fire pit for the end of the night.
We built this home for our own family before opening it to guests, and we host it personally — with real pride in quality, cleanliness, and a comfortable, well-run space. Meet your hosts →
Gather around the fire pit as the sun goes down, spread out on the large deck — and when it's beach time, Beaverton's waterfront on Lake Simcoe is a short stroll away.
Two separate living rooms plus an open-concept kitchen and dining area give a big group the rare gift of space — togetherness when you want it, room to retreat when you don't.
Radiant in-floor heating runs throughout the home — including heated bathroom floors — with air conditioning to keep things cool through the summer.
A heated, drive-through shop and a large paved driveway make this a rare find for groups arriving with gear — easy in, easy out.
Garage access available upon request and subject to booking approval.
+ 67 amenities in total — from fresh linens and a coffee setup to secure exterior cameras and step-free entry.

A quick tour of the layout, the two living zones, and the details that make 501 Bay Stay work for a group.
This home was ours before it was ever anything else. We built it. We lived in it. It's where our family gathered, where holidays were hosted, and where nights were spent around the fire.
We have two kids, run a busy real estate team, and most days feel full, fast, and a little chaotic — which is exactly why we care so much about how a space feels when you finally get to slow down.
When life took us in a different direction, we didn't want to let 501 Bay go. So we opened it up for other people to experience it the way we did. It's not set up like a typical rental — it's set up the way we'd want it: comfortable, equipped, easy to settle into. The kind of place where everyone has room, but still ends up together.
Hosting, for us, isn't just about handing over keys. It's about making sure that when you arrive, everything feels right.
Booking with us directly means a better value and a real conversation with your host. Same 5.0★ home, none of the middle-man markup.
Skip the booking-platform service fees and you keep more for the trip. Ask us about direct rates and longer-stay pricing.
We're Superhosts with a 100% response rate. Ask anything — and get a real answer, usually within the hour.
Boats, trailers, extra parking, the heated shop — tell us what your group needs and we'll make it work.

"The house is huge, well-appointed and beautifully decorated… The master bathroom suite was magazine-worthy with separate soaker tub and double rainfall showers. I would stay there again in a heartbeat!"
"Wonderful stay! The place was roomy, well-stocked, and incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen was especially perfect for a group that loves to cook together. Steven and Tambrie were wonderful hosts — so responsive and accommodating!"
"The home felt so airy and spacious the moment we walked in… I really appreciated how private the space felt, while still being an easy walk to the restaurants and shops downtown. The perfect balance of quiet and convenient."
"Very spacious, very clean and nicely renovated. Everything was almost new, and it was very nicely designed. Located in a peaceful neighborhood, close to Lake Simcoe… We will be back in the summer."
"Exceptionally clean, very modern, and beautifully maintained. The hosts were kind, responsive, and flexible, which made everything so easy and stress-free. Highly recommend and would happily stay again!"
"Great place, was the right fit for our big group — 3 families. Very clean and well maintained."
501 Bay Stay isn't just a place to sleep — it's your base for the whole Lake Simcoe experience. Most of downtown and the waterfront is an easy walk from the front door.
Essentials, all in town: the LCBO is a two-minute walk down Bay Street, Foodland grocery (with bakery & butcher) is on Simcoe Street, and Beaverton's "Five Corners" downtown has shops worth a browse. Ask us for our personal picks — we're locals.
Tucked into the township of Brock on the eastern shore of Lake Simcoe, Beaverton blends a calm, residential setting with quick access to the water and the towns nearby — about 90 minutes from Toronto.
Behind the scenes, seasonal updates, and life on Lake Simcoe — come say hi.
Up to 12 guests across 5 bedrooms and 10 beds — one king, three queens, and two twin XLs — with three full bathrooms plus a powder room.

The heated drive-through shop (815+ sq ft) is one of the home's most-loved features for boats, sleds, bikes and gear. Garage access is available upon request and subject to booking approval — just mention what you're bringing in your inquiry and we'll make a plan.
