About the host
Hosted by Leslie Cuddy
We are a family of five living in Ontario & we're proud owners of this little piece of heaven on the east coast of Canada. We fell in love with the Island in 2007 & purchased the cottage in June 2013. We make the drive from Ontario in less than 18 hours and love spending a few weeks every summer at our cottage.
Why they chose this property
We rented a cottage in the Darnley area in 2007 & 2008 and knew we had to have a cottage to call our own. Darnely is centrally located, secluded enough from the hustle & bustle of the city but close to essential amenities needed for "summer survival".
What makes this property unique
Our children run, play & bike in our neighbourhood. Our annual visits always include culinary experiences, local craft beer, deep sea fishing excursions, sea kayaking, ceilidhs, & LOTS of beach time.
The drive to & from Cavendish from Darnley is rated one of the most picturesque in Canada. Many photo opportunities along the way.
Deep Sea Fishing always includes a cod fish fry for dinner & many times we have whales, dolphins & tuna fish experiences along the way or sometimes, the odd seal will visit our boat. Daily charters are available in Malpeque Harbor & Stanley Bridge.
Beach Combing is a family favourite - crabs, hermit crabs, lobsters, caves & cliffs to explore on every beach. The adventure is endless & action packed.
