Absolutely fantastic! Floyd and Heather were amazing hosts. Each and every recommendation for restaurants, beaches, sites to take in were awesome. The beach house is beautiful. The pictures on the site are true to real; in reality even better. Location superb. We just can’t wait to come back to P.E.I. and mark my words. We will be back.

This is such a lovely cottage in a peaceful, beautiful location! The living space - kitchen, dining, and living room - is very comfortable with great views of the tidal West River. Kitchen is well equipped and immaculately clean. Ditto the bathrooms. It was tempting to just stay there and not go anywhere. The breeze off the river was refreshing. The birds were great, with 3 kinds of terns feeding right off the deck. The quiet was great and made it hard to believe we were only 15 minutes from Charlottetown’s historic downtown and 7 minutes from Cow’s main store. Cornwall has a very good grocery store and a nice bakery. And Heather is a wonderful host, who met us when we arrived and walked us thru the cottage to explain how everything works. She was very responsive when we had a question. We would definitely stay here again!

York Point Retreat

We had a wonderful week staying at 570 York Point, Cornwall. Hosts were very friendly and easy to contact. Home is very well appointed on a beautiful property overlooking the river. Photos are very accurate as to what this home offers to visitors. It's an easy drive to Charlottetown and other PEI destinations from this property.

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!

A slice of heaven

We had the most delightful 7 night stay at the cottage . Heather and Floyd greets us on our arrival and gave us the highlights and recommendations. The cottage is incredibly comfortable and the views beautiful, with spectacular sunsets. It was the perfect location on the island , convenient to Charlottetown for shopping and the ideal jumping off point for all island activity. Heather recommended Potters Cove for Island pottery , well worth the visit . We look forward to our return visit. You will not be disappointed with the wonderful cottage . All the best Carol And Jim

A Charming Gem

We have recently returned from a week's stay in PEI and this very special cottage on the edge of the sea. Let me just tell you this: I cried when we left. This place is even better in real life. It was immaculate and fully equipped (including an oyster knife which is essential when visiting PEI). Heather and Floyd were there to great us when we arrived and show us around. All the information they gave us about the cottage and the island was so helpful. Even though we had researched PEI and had lots scheduled, there are things the locals know that the internet or any guide book won't tell you. The location was beyond perfect as you feel far away in this private retreat yet only 15-20 minutes from Charlottetown and all the pristine beaches PEI has to offer. Don't miss out on this cottage and location. I can't imagine our visit would have been the same had we stayed anywhere else. I would rate this with more stars if i could.

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!

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!
