What a beautiful place and a great host. The cottage was fully stocked, clean and in a great location! We were able to take advantage of some great on resort activities and enjoyed heading to Sandbanks daily with the included pass. We had an amazing week soaking in the sun and making memories. Thanks Jill!

Very cute, clean and well managed. Cottage has high ceilings giving it an open feel with a nice kitchen. The two bedrooms, one with an ensuite powder room and a full bathroom make it very functional for a family. Laundry in the cottage, bbq, wifi, it has it all. Great resort and pool area for kids. Will be booking again!

A lovely little cottage in a terrific family resort community, a short drive from all the highlights of Prince Edward County. Everything is clean, well maintained and as advertised. The cottage is in a newer section of the East Lake Shores community, not as treed and pretty as the longer-established parts of the resort near the water, but still just a short walk from lots of the amenities (pool, tennis, basketball, playground). It’s a fantastic base for exploring the county, a short drive to Sandbanks (amazing beaches!), Picton and many wineries.everything in the cottage is modern and in excellent condition, and the beds are very comfortable. The fully screened porch is a treat! And Jill is a pleasure to deal with, always quick and friendly to respond to questions.

Un gros WOW!!!Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour à East Lake Shores, et nous avons été particulièrement impressionnés par la qualité du cottage. L’endroit était décoré avec beaucoup de goût, dans un style chaleureux et apaisant qui rendait chaque moment agréable. On s’y sentait immédiatement bien.Le cottage était aussi extrêmement bien équipé : il ne manquait absolument rien. Tout était pensé pour rendre le séjour simple et confortable — de la cuisine complète aux petits détails pratiques du quotidien. Nous avons même trouvé des chaises pour la plage et plusieurs jeux, ce qui a rendu nos sorties et nos soirées encore plus plaisantes.Cette attention portée aux détails a vraiment fait la différence. On sent que Jill a à cœur d’offrir une expérience complète, où l’on peut simplement arriver, déposer ses bagages et profiter.Combiné à la beauté du domaine, aux installations et à la proximité du lac, notre séjour a été à la fois relaxant et mémorable. On pense déjà à renouveler pour les années à venir.

Wonderful stay, nice and close to sandbanks for a day visit. Close to Picton too with local shops and restaurants. And the activities on site meant you didn’t have to go anywhere. The cottage was so well stocked with everything we needed in the kitchen and bedrooms, it was just like being at home (and I over packed, since the towels were great quality, the board games in great condition and the dishes were better than mine at home!) and the owner was very responsive when I had questions. We had a great time in the beautifully appointed cottage.

About the host

Host profile image
I’m Jill, a nature-loving host who enjoys sewing, reading, and exploring the outdoors. I value creating a cozy, welcoming space where guests can relax and make lasting memories. While I don’t live in Prince Edward County full-time, I take pride in making sure every stay is comfortable, well-prepared, and filled with the little touches that make a cottage feel like home.

Why they chose this property

I chose Prince Edward County for its perfect blend of natural beauty, small-town charm, and endless things to do. Between the stunning beaches at Sandbanks, the peaceful walking trails, the vibrant local markets, and the welcoming community, it felt like the ideal place to create a relaxing getaway spot. Every time I visit, I discover something new to love — and I’m excited to share that experience with my guests.

What makes this property unique

Our cottage offers the perfect balance of comfort and location — with A/C in every room, a cozy screened-in porch, and access to all the East Lake Shores resort amenities. It’s just minutes from Sandbanks with a pass included, yet tucked in a peaceful community with walking trails, pools, and lake access. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the porch, enjoying a sunset by the water, or exploring Prince Edward County’s wineries and shops, this is a place where you can truly unwind
