A private piece of Prince Edward County! An adorable little retro styled bunkie on a private woodsy property that’s just a fifteen minute walk (or three minute drive) from a picturesque rock beach on Lake Ontario. Tucked in privately from the road out of site by a bunch of junipers and other trees located on the property. The bunkie offers a nice queen sized bed, a little area to the side with chairs and a table to relax if you need to get out of the sun/rain, and a very chill 70’s beach vibe. If the wind is just right, you will be able to hear the waves crash from the beach! The property has a perfect little hangout area where there is a nice big fire pit, patio table/chairs, as well as a portable bbq (you will just need to bring your own little Coleman propane cylinder with you.) If it’s a nice clear night, stare up to the sky and you may see the Milky Way above! There are a couple short loop trails that you can walk your dog on that loop from the bunkie/hangout area that will loop you back to either spot on the property. I just ask you to be respectful of cleaning up after your pets if you bring any. There are some pylons located in areas on the trails to indicate not to go past those any further due to it being not maintained past that those points. The land is located on probably one of the quietest roads in the County. You may see more off road vehicles if your on your way to the beach then you would cars. There is also a little outhouse located at the front of the property off to the side of the driveway. Twenty minutes from the town of Picton where you can find any amenity you require! A gorgeous town with tons of great restaurants, wineries, breweries, farm stands, artisans and shopping. Check out the rest of Prince Edward County by just adding a few more minutes to your trip in any direction to explore our other great towns around the community. So much to see and do here, lots of sightseeing, nature trails, conservation areas and don’t forget the world famous Sandbanks provincial park! (The largest sandbar beach in Canada). Perfect getaway for a couples glamping experience, some peace, quiet, and relaxation, or to just let loose and have a great time! There are no houses to either side of the property, so there’s no worry to be quiet 😉.A private piece of Prince Edward County!

There is a fire extinguisher located in the bunkie as well as a big water jug that will be located near the fire pit incase of an emergency.

Highly recommended for a quick sta

This was an amazing stay. The property and the bunkie are lovely. Jay is a fantastic host - responsive and quick. The point Petere beach is a 5 min drive. Highly recommend - one can't swim but you can relax and enjoy the loveky water.

Me and my girlfriend really enjoyed our journey. The bunkie got all you need to cook food which is really nice(bbq and propane stove). Also, the location of the bunkie is perfect. First, it is really calm and at night, you can see very well the stars and you can hear a lot of animals. Another reason is because it is close to Sandbanks and Picton which are very beautiful place (around 20 minutes from both).

My girlfriend and I really appreciated the cuteness, intimacy and uniqueness of the place. 20 minutes to sandbanks and 2minutes away from a very nice rocky beach. A hidden spot that deserves a look at least if you go there.

Private and spectacular

This is a large and well-built bunkie, very suitable for two people and a dog! There are lots of thoughtful touches, like bug screens on the windows and on the door, so we were able to sleep with the door open for a beautiful breeze. Outside the bunkie is a lovely little picnic area with seating and fairy lights - very charming. I set up a hammock there and slept outside one night. The stars are spectacular in this remote little corner of the county, far from any city or street lights. It's very private, with lots of trees and no immediate neighbours. The beach area nearby is just spectacular (although bring good shoes, it's very rocky!) Nearby are two excellent wineries (Lighthall is especially recommended) and the new Base31 art space is just awesome. Bloomfield is about a (very pretty) 20min drive away. Jay was a great host, with an easy handoff (lock box) and good communication. Things to note: there is NO water or electricity, and the nearest place to buy anything is a good 10 min drive away, so make sure you bring lots of water and battery packs for your phone! Also, the cell service is quite spotty. Whether you get service or not depends on what company you are with (Rogers worked, Virgin did not!) I had a very pleasant stay in the county. This is much more private than Sandbanks and I hope to return next summer!
