There is something magical that happens when you gather with close family and friends at a beachfront cottage. Memories are made along the waterfront with the sandy gradual entry beach. Windpoint Cottage is truly a special place and a convenient one level bungalow style home. It is a charming cottage with a newly renovated kitchen and lots of space to hang out. Laughter is heard. Good food is enjoyed. And all the noise of every day life disappears, if only for a while.

Under new management for 2025 so there are no reviews but previously a highly rated property that is sure to please. ** Minimum Rental Age is 30**. Right next door to another property we manage called Windmill Point Place. Book both together for a wonderful extended family beachfront vacation

The living room is the heart of this well-cared for cottage with its spectacular stone fireplace (not operational) and a cathedral ceiling. The eat in kitchen is wonderful for breakfast while the dining area is a lovely experience as you'll be able to gaze across the lawn and to the water through the walls of windows.

A second family room offers a great place to relax at night with a Smart TV, foosball table and patio doors to the outside. This property works great for two families. It sleeps 8 people in total (6 adults maximum) in the 3 bedrooms. Bedrooms are nice size larger bedrooms.
