My parents have had a cottage in Sauble Beach for 23 years and my kids and I go there frequently. They live there in the summer and I'm there every other week. I went up last week, last month and a few months ago. The beach is allways great, clean and getting smaller because the water levels keep coming up. The Left side, of the beach, is on Native land so you might have to pay but the the right side is public so it's free. There is lots of parking. Nothing is free unless you park on the lawn of someone's cottage. You can park on Main St for a few hours for a few bucks or off Main St for $5-$25 depending on the day or Long-weekend. The are many shops ranging from clothing, beach-wear, Ice-Cream, Tattoos and always Fireworks! There is 1 grocery store and 1 gas station but it's always expensive and you should get gas before going to Sauble. The small town of Hepworth is only 10 minutes away and the gas is usually cheeper and there is a Tim Hortons! For the record, the beach is OPEN even though it was clossed earlier this year.

The park is very tranquil on a weekday before the mad crush on weekends. This was our first (not the last ) visit to Couchiching Beach park. We had a bbq (bring your own bbq) and a swim at the lovely sand beach. Change rooms and washrooms are right beside beach. The 2 sinks in the middle were covered up with garbage bags for social distancing. Very clean washrooms. Lots of picnic tables, some are under the picnic shelters. Nice wooden boardwalk too. The snack bar and mini train weren't operating when we visited, maybe due to Covid. Parking lot is not very large. Get there early for a spot. Disabled parking available close to beach

One of the best beaches in Ontario. Nice and clean Bring water shoes as this beach is all pebbles and body suit if you can’t stand the cold water. Lots of activities. Paddleboarding parasailing kayaking etc. Beach was crowded on the weekend. Lifeguards on duty. You have to get here early for a parking spot(4 dollars per hour) or park along Main Street 2.00 per hour. Lots of shopping and restaurants along Main Street. No shady spot so walk with beach umbrellas.

Goderich, a town of many facets, with beautiful beaches, incredible city design with wonderful little stores and restaurants. Aside from being right on Huron Lake with long shallow walk in the water beaches, in my view, it is one of the most incredibly wholehearted town with picturesque spots everywhere. The people are extremely friendly; the sights around town are unique. The restaurants, well, mama mia, great food! We walked everywhere, took our time and swam at Rotary Cove beach, enjoyed sitting in the park overlooking the bay, had a drink at the old train station. Simply delightful. The water had cooled off a bit but was still refreshing for Lake Huron for September. We recommended many of our friends to go and visit and we are planning to go back ourselves.

We visit here each summer and it is one of our favourite beaches. Very nice large sandy beach and the the water is the perfect depth for the kids. There is lifeguards on duty everywhere and I was also very impressed to see marine Fire Rescue out on a Sea-Doo circling the area and keeping a very good watch on both the swimmers and the boaters. It is always nice to feel like there is an extra set of eyes on your family keeping them safe and that right there makes it worth the money we pay to park there for the day (usually around $15). There is both washrooms ans changerooms just off the beach as awell as a picnic area and playground. Mackie's has great fries and fun little rides and games for the kids. We also enjoy going on the pier as well as walking along the boardwalk into the downtown. Got ice cream at Broderick's, a very cute vintage ice cream parlour and they had every flavour you could imagine. Port Stanley is a beautiful little town and I look forward to coming back again next year.

The first time we visited this beach it was in May 2017. Today, November 2020 was just as spectacular, only a little cooler. Love the pastel rocks shaped like Easter eggs. Can't wait to come back this way again.
