Vacation perfection
For our family of 3 it would be hard to find so perfect a space anywhere else. The scenery, the quality of the property, the easy access to services and locations and of course the professionalism of the owners - this experience is tops. Thanks to Floyd and Heather for making our time on PEI an absolute win.

We had an absolute incredible week! Heather created such a beautiful oasis with everything you could need. The house has views from almost every spot. The multiple decks and sun room offer peaceful spots to view the water regardless of the weather which is amazing for a vacation week. The kitchen with a view and again, everything you needed, was so fun to cook in and we enjoy cooking! Heather welcomed us when we got there and shared some great places to explore based on what we were looking for. We did all of them and more and felt connected to someone on the island while being so far away. Thank you Heather!! We loved it there and hope to be back one day!

Heavenly Retreat!!
My husband & I spent an amazing two weeks here for our 25th wedding anniversary.
Lovely & accurate as the pictures and descriptions on this execeptional home are… they don’t even do it justice for the York Point Cottage!
There is nothing more you could want that our wonderful hosts, Floyd & Heather have not thought of and provided. The home is so tastefully decorated and there are corners & nooks everywhere to take in the views, read a book, or journal while enjoying a glass of wine or a cup of coffee.
The location is idealic….the cottage is located in a serenely quite spot right on the water and yet just a short distance to Charlottetown which offers great shops & is a foodie paradise.
We will be back next year! It is just so special!

Tranquil Stay-Perfect Location
My daughter and I couldn’t have had a more perfect getaway. The house and property are as described. It is truly so tranquil and peaceful, and has all the amenities you could need. The 3 season room was the most relaxing place to sit and could see the sunset from there or either of the decks.
The location was truly perfect to get to our excursions and Charlottetown. Check in was easy and Heather and Floyd were so easy to work with. We had thought of going to an outdoor concert and Floyd offered to bring us lawn chairs. They truly have designed a beautiful, relaxing oasis, and we hope to get back for another visit!

We took a chance to try and rent this cottage on very short notice. Our hosts approved our staying there starting on the day they returned from their own vacation.
The cottage is VERY nice and a fantastic central location on PEI. I can not recomend this property more highly. Amazing stay, fantastic hosts and a beautiful part of thr country.

Amazing Rental
This place was a cook's dream as everything one might need was at your disposal. Or, if you are just a dreamer, you are mesmerized by the view of the river in front of you and the palette of clouds floating by overhead. Or, if you are just into reading, playing games, or relaxing you cannot believe how lucky you are! Our host, Heather, met us upon arrival, checked in with us during our stay and made sure we were not at a loss for anything! We'll definitely come back here!

This vacation rental is one of the best we’ve ever stayed in. It’s so cozy and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and the primary bed is very comfortable. But the view and outside decks are the best part, so beautiful. Heather, the host, is so hospitable and helpful. Our plane got in very late so she offered to put some groceries in the fridge for us, so thoughtful. We left feeling relaxed and refreshed.

Beautiful slice of paradise. Newly renovated cottage with a great location. Hosts, Heather & Floyd were great. HurricaneLee decided to make landfall on PEI. Floyd & Heather offered to put us in a hotel & upon our refusal, they brought supplies to us. We were snug as bugs in the cottage throughout the storm. I can’t wait to return and feel that I’ve made two new friends.

Wonderful holiday getaway
From the start, we knew we were in for a great stay - Heather was responsive, met us at the door, gave us the tour, ensured we had what we needed. After that it was 5 days of our little family taking day trips and coming "home" to the cosy confines of this cottage - a nice mix of modern and beach rustic. Great water view, quiet location, all amenities you would need (thank you again fire pit! ) and location-wise, close to Charlottetown and Cows ice cream!
