Chapter One · The Cabins

Fourteen cabins.
Four sizes.

Fourteen cabins, all on the sand, in four sizes. None of them are fancy. All of them are clean, simple, and steps from the water. Pick the size that fits your crew and we’ll sort out the rest on the phone.

Chapter Two · What’s Available at a Glance

Summer 2026,
at a glance.

Two booking rhythms, depending on the month. This is a snapshot of how the season is shaping up — for the real answer on a specific cabin and week, it’s one phone call to the owner.

Chapter Three · The Beach

Not a resort.
A shoreline.

Wasaga Beach, Ontario. A two-hour drive from Toronto. The kind of place where the same families have been booking the same week for three generations — and where the beach itself does all the entertaining.

We don’t have a pool. We don’t have a concierge. What we have is a screen door that slams, a breeze off the bay, and fourteen kilometres of freshwater in front of the cabin.

00

Steps to the water

The sand starts at your screen door. No road to cross, no parking lot between you and the waves.

14

Kilometres of shoreline

The longest freshwater beach in the world. Plenty of room to walk off a breakfast or chase a kite.

01

Owner, answering the phone

Every booking goes through Derron. No booking engines, no fees, no 'your stay has been confirmed' emails from a robot.

Chapter Four · The Guest Book

What the
postcards home said.

A few notes from the guest book on the kitchen table. No five-star widgets, no review aggregators — just people who came back.

Many years ago my girlfriend and I stumbled across the Bungalows on the Beach right after Bruce had bought the place. We stayed and went back many times including a year or two later when we got engaged in front of the cabin closest to the beach. We plan to go this summer for our 25th!

My family has been coming here every year since I was a toddler and it's always been a blast! Cottages are right on the shore, and the owner Bruce is one of the kindest and funniest people I've ever met. I can't wait to be back up in about a week!

We had an all-round amazing time on our beach family vacation at the Bungalows on the Beach. The owner is very accommodating and friendly. The cabins on the beach are very clean and comfortable. Can't wait to go back and do it all again.

Chapter Five · The Easy Part

Pick a week.
Call the owner.

That’s the whole booking process. Derron & Laura will ask you about your family, figure out the cabin that fits, and hold your dates the old-fashioned way — by writing them down on a piece of paper.

Drive in with
sand on your dashboard.

The cabins sit right on Shore Lane — the road that hugs the beach, a minute's drive west of Mosley Street. Once you pass the big Wasaga Beach Provincial Park sign you're close.
