Grace Cottage STR2425D8013
We absolutely loved the closed in deck where we sat and watched the sunset and birds playing in the tides. Great that the washer and dryer was there and worked wonderfully. Kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, and even wine glasses!

Cottage in Miramichi by all sand beach with 3 bdrm
Great place to stay with the whole family. Jen is always responsive and very helpful when I had a problem with my car. She is the one find the garage for my car and very helpful in everything. Her place is beautiful, walking distance to the ⛱️ beach. 5 stars is not enough to rate her. I would recommend this place. Thanks Jen.

Country Lane Cottage "OCEAN VIEW" (Lic:2101252)
Cute place in view of the bridge ! Peaceful and so quiet . I would definitely come back again ! So close to beach stairs made it easy for several trips a day ! My first trip to PEI and I picked a jewel. Colleen was an excellent host and truly one of my best Airbnb stays.

Waterfront-Golf-King-WiFi-Self Check In-W/D/DW-Pei
The place was fantastic, a perfect venue for 4 friends to go on a short golf trip. Super well appointed place, a lot of nice touches such as labels on light switches (most places don't do that and you need to switch em all to see what they do!). Also, the beds were very comfortable, the night sky was amazing, it was very quiet and peaceful as well. We will certainly book again in the future!

Cleveland Beach Cottage
This guest home is amazing and a vibe that reflects the awesome personality of the hosts. If you are looking to get away and relax this is your place, the patio and hot tub over looking the ocean and the claw foot tub and fireplace inside were amazing features but many more touching features that make this a perfect getaway anytime of the year. We will be back and recommending to others!

Angela's Cottage by the Sea
Wendy and Ron were great hosts and very easy to communicate with. Their relationship place was very clean and quiet with a short walk to the beach.

New! *NorthStarr Beachfront Cottage*
I was extremely happy with this little cottage for our family vacation. It was the perfect size and location for us and was clearly well-cared-for, with many amenities making it feel like a home away from home. I would definitely stay here again!

Seaside Haven
Last minute vacation after a challenging year of ill health. The cottage is located on the second street from the waterfront and beach near the Pointe-du-Chêne marina. We went often to the marina where there are a couple of restaurants/patios and a few shops. We did not go to Parlee Beach because the beach near the cottage met our needs. The cottage was very clean and as described. Our hosts were easy to reach and very pleasant to deal with. Strongly recommended not to mention in a great location of Pointe-du-Chene. We definitely plan to return. Thank for a grateful vacation.
Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Alma - Fundy Hideaway *Hot Tub*
Amazing, relaxing stay. Perfect location with an incredible view! Hot tub was just what we needed, and we enjoyed playing the card games inside. Hope to be back in the warmer months to take advantage of the outdoors more!

Cajun's Cottage - zen beach house w/hot tub
Great stay! The host took care of snow removal during the storm, so we had no issues getting around. We enjoyed using all the amenities, especially the hot tub and game systems. Would definitely recommend!

New Lakefront Luxury Cottage w/ Hot Tub
The Lake House was a wonderful place for our group (and dogs) to spend time together and celebrate New Years. There was lots of room for our group to relax, enjoy meals and play games. The hot tub was nice to have, and there was ample parking. Jolena was very responsive before and during our stay - thank you for a wonderful stay!

Pinecone Cottage Hot Tub & Projector at Falls Lake
My special needs brother and I had wonderful stay at Sara’s cabin . The cabin is so confortable and cozy . The dirt road in and out is very well kept for winter travel ! The hot tub and movie night was a huge hit . The snow in the ground just added to the surrounding Beauty . Sara is s super host ! Would love to return .

Oceanfront Cottage - Modern & Private
What a fantastic experience! Our hosts were communicative and made sure we had everything needed during our stay. The property was peaceful, private, and stunning! A snowstorm arriving overnight was met with messages offering for us to hunker down past checkout time until roads were cleared! So thoughtful and accommodating. Still, never felt trapped since Christopher made sure to plow us out first thing making sure we felt we could leave when ready. This place would be a treat any time of year and can't wait to be back.

Steel Away (Cottage)
Was a great spot for a little weekend get away, even in the winter we felt right at home, the hottub and sauna were both running, even in January, and the location is just minutes away from the Fin restaurant. Everything was clean and tidy and had the perfect amount of space for us! The host was extremely helpful and kind, even bringing us over snowshoes when we first arrived. We will definitely be coming back to stay in the “steel homes” next door!!

Best view of the Back Harbour -waterfront property
Our stay here was absolutely perfect. The place was clean, lovely decorated and in a perfect location. The cottage is walking distance to town and to a lovely walking trail that we took full advantage of during our stay. We were able to drive to many attractions (i.e. Lunenburg, Peggie’s Cove, and Halifax Harbour-front) in under an hour. The town of Chester has everything you need for a wonderful week away. The best part of our stay was Lizzie our host. She was very attentive and ensured we had everything we needed including dropping off extra lifejackets. Our week stay was everything we expected and more.

theOLNEYhouse. - PEI Tourism Licence 2202742
We cannot say enough good things about our stay. It was the perfect place for our family as the couple with two small ones stayed on the lower level where we wouldn’t disturb them sleeping, the grandparents stayed over garage and couple with a teenager stayed on main level and that is where we cooked/ate meals. Beautiful kitchens that were both fully equipped. We had 9 of us total and were very comfortable. The laundry was so nice to have and loved the view off the upper balcony. We grilled most nights which kept cleanup to minimum. Allison provides a lot of extras in garage like toys for playing in sand, camp chairs, etc. Cavendish beach is lovely and short drive or to just explore/look for shells/walk Rustico Beach is short walk. Would not recommend swimming at this beach but nice to walk. The boardwalk is beautiful and short walk into town. We can’t say enough good things about our stay! Allison was so responsive and a superb host. For a large family Orkney place is perfect!

John B's Oceanfront cottages - cottage # 2
We stayed in Cottage #2 which was a spacious two bedroom. Cottage was equipped with all the necessities. My husband loved the large tv screen to watch hockey...yes I said hockey in August...lol...thanks COVID. I however can’t say enough about the view from the patio as you sip on morning coffee and wine in the evening...SPECTACULAR! Wayne was great to deal with and answered each communication within moments. Was a pleasure to deal with.

Entire Private 11 acre island with 5 cottages.
Rented all 5 cabins for a family vacation. This was the perfect place. David was absolutely amazing. There is nothing we would change. Definitely a piece of heaven, wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Coco's Cottage: Sandy Beach Oasis
absolutely stunning view and was so quiet. house was very clean and had everything we needed. absolutely recommend.

Saltscapes - groups -micro weddings- multi family
Beautiful location. 2 min walk to Thunder Cove and this is a spectacular beach. The house is comfortable. No AC, but very clean and perfect for a large group. Kennsington PEI has a full service grocery store, this is about 10 min away. PEI is a beautiful and this house is in a perfect location. Host was great. We had all we needed and great communication.

Diamonds-on-the-Bay
A complete gem of a property! Stunning waterfront fun. Everything we could have imagined and more. Perfect for any kind of weather. Host was available and accommodating when we had questions. We will be back!

Lakefront Cottage on Peninsula
Great location on a very clean and peaceful lake. Swimming , kayaks and paddleboards are available right off the private dock. My son and I enjoyed paddling around the lake with islands, walking trails and a natural area with diving board to explore. The house is on a peninsula so while it’s very private , you also get pretty views on 3 sides. The house is stocked with everything you need for meals, movie watching , games (indoor & outdoor) as wells as a fire pit area. Very rustic feel but everything clean and air conditioned so we were comfortable when we did spend time in the house. Lastly , we were able to get to the Halifax waterfront for a very enjoyable meal in only 35 mins. Closer options in Sackville & Dartmouth as well. We also appreciated having a large Sobey’s grocery store only 10 min drive away.
