About this property

Highview Three Season Cottage - as low as 199$CAD/nt - 3 Bed, 1 Bath

Our spacious, well-appointed and secluded three bedroom chalet-style cottage offers an ideal relaxing getaway with a stunning view across the Southwest River in the picturesque fishing village of New London, 10 minutes from Cavendish National Park.
Our one-acre property boasts over 150 feet of south facing shoreline on the tidal Southwest River just a short distance from the mouth of the ocean.

The cottage itself is set back on a slope nestled among mature trees on each side affording our guests full privacy while still providing a gorgeous view of the river and valley from the living room, bedrooms and each of three large decks.

Our property has a 30 ft patio for lounging or eating. Guests have full access to our two sea kayaks. The front of the cottage faces to the South and as a result the property, deck and dock are blanketed with sunshine most of the day.

The cottage was fully renovated in 2005, including all new appliances and furnishings, fully renovated kitchen and bathroom, reclaimed pine flooring throughout — all carefully chosen to reflect a warm and inviting cottage ambiance. All new major kitchen appliances installed 2021.

We have new, high quality mattresses topped with quality cotton linens and summer-weight feather duvets, and have both bath and beach towels in good supply. Our bathroom is spacious and the claw foot tub is perfect for taking a leisurely soak at the end of the day but also boasts a wall mounted nozzle for showering.

We have outside lounge chairs and a picnic table for outdoor relaxation and dining as well as an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach. The cottage is equipped with a washer/dryer for guest's use as well as satellite television service, DVD player and of course a BBQ for outdoor cooking.

Location is central to many north shore attractions including golf, beaches, lobster dinners, and deep sea fishing.

Season 2022:
- Check in is 4pm Atlantic time, Check out is 10am Atlantic time
- Cleaning fee (145$), vrbo fees and provincial taxes excluded.

Lovely Riverview retreat.

Had a lovely relaxing fall stay at the cottage. Great view of the water in a cozy rustic setting. You're never very far from anything in PEI but we were still in a great secluded location. Great weekend.

Lovely weekend retreat

The home was perfect. Located right on the water lovely views from the deck. Looks like a lot of fun to be had with the water in summertime. Autumn chill was with us and we loved that, plenty of throw blankets to cover up and sit outside. All the amenities you need were there. Thanks to our hosts for sharing their home. You won’t be disappointed if you stay here!

Lovely setting

We had a great stay at Highview. The main highlight of course was the eagle's nest and many eagle sightings. The only real negative factor was the prominent musty smell which permeated the whole cottage, but especially downstairs in the bedroom areas. Otherwise, a great location, very nice setting, comfortable seating and beds and well stocked kitchen. Lovely deck perfect for sitting out wine-sipping and bird-viewing!

Beautiful spot

Spent two nights here and it was amazing! The cottage has plenty of room. The beds are comfortable. There is no air conditioning but the breeze off the water was perfect! I would definitely book here again! My only suggestion for improvement would be to add hand rails for the upper section of the stairs inside and also for the stairs outside but overall….great spot for a little getaway!

Wished We Stayed Longer!

This cottage was absolutely perfect for our multigenerational getaway. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer! Everyone had amazing sleeps in the well appointed beds with a fresh breeze coming off the water. We loved how close we were to everything but far enough to feel we were truly getting away from it all. The cottage had everything we needed and more. We hope to return soon!

Lovely open concept upper floor. Beautiful view and very quite area. We were not at the cottage most of the time, but nice place to relax. We were a bit disappointed because we couldn’t swim off the dock due to huge amount of algae, but not a big deal.

Great cottage for a family!

Great cottage and location. Well supplied with everything you need as well as lots of fun games, books, kayaks and a paddle board. We had age ranges from 4-72 and everyone enjoyed it. My only recommendation is to have a dehumidifier running in the basement to hopefully remove the musty smell. Love the open concept upstairs space and having one room with a king size bed is definitely a plus!

Highview Experience

Our Highview experience exceeded our expectations. Everything our family could ask for. Loved kayaking and the paddle board. Lots of room for the 6 of us. Totally enjoyed the board games on our one rainy day. The location is ideally close to Kensington and Cavendish, yet completely private. Only hiccup was the road to the cabin after it rained. Highly recommend.

The cottage is rustic but comfortable! The dock is lovely but not entirely swimable if you’re not a fan of seaweed. Kitchen has everything you need- my husband even cooked live lobsters:) Would recommend to anyone:)

Rustikal in schöner Lage

Wir hatten ein paar Probleme mit dem Fernseher. Der Besitzer hat leider erst nach unserer Abreise auf den Anruf und die E-Mail reagiert. Die Umgebung des Hauses ist wunderschön. Sehr ruhig gelegen mit tollen Stränden in der Nähe. Man kann mit den Kajaks sehr nett auf dem Fluss vom Haus aus lospaddeln. Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Zeit.

Beautiful weekend!!

Omg the property is even more beautiful than photos can show. The river is lovely, sitting by the water in the evening is so serene. The cottage was clean and comfortable! The beds were comfy and the place had absolutely everything we needed. We drank our morning coffee on the deck overlooking the view. Would love to come back again!

Private retreat by the water

The setting was beautiful and very private. The house was super clean with lots of comfortable touches that made for a relaxing stay. Our only issue was that we didn’t know the bedrooms and bathroom were all in the basement. They could be accessed from outside but inside access was by stairs and my husband had a recovering broken foot. It was a complication we dealt with and wouldn’t be a problem for lots of people, but good to know.

Great Location and View, very very musty though

This place is beautiful, it has an amazing location and gorgeous view. There is however a very strong musty smell, my husband has asthma and had a very hard time breathing in the lower levels where the bedrooms were. They also only left us one and a quarter roll of toilet paper for 6 people, 4 nights, they adivsed me they told us they leave 1-2 to get us started, but at nearly $1700 for 4 nights, you would think they would provide a basic necessity like toilet paper, when in fact the pre book info said "a few" which by definiton is 3-4. All in all, it was beautiful, it was really well located, it was beautifully decorated, they had tons for my kids to do, and improvments could be made by leaving a proper amount of toilet paper, and maybe de-humidifiers in the lower level would help with the must/mildew smell

About the host

Hosted by Colin & Jennifer Cochran

Host profile image
We are originally from Montreal and Toronto, but call Calgary, Alberta home now. We rented on the island in 2015, and fell in love with the place. After a bit of searching, we found this little bit of paradise on the South West river....

Why they chose this property

The three level deck has south facing exposure, direct water access from the property. It is near everything: golf, Cavendish, Kensington, beaches, seafood, deep sea fishing etc. Yet, when you get there, it's like you are all alone, go for a swim in the water, and bake on the beach.

What makes this property unique

Waterfront, swim, kayak, birdwatching (bald eagle nest on the property), fishing.
