This cottage was a little piece of heaven on the shores of Lake Ontario. As promised, the sun rises were spectacular. Our family had a wonderful getaway enjoying swimming, camp fires, exploring the County along with a spectacular day at Sandbanks Provincial Park.

This property sits right on the water - you’ll get the most incredible sunset views of your life here! Loved the gazebo area to eat in and hide out from the sun. Went swimming and paddle boarding right off the dock, water was quite warm! The views of the vineyard right next door are also so lovely. Our family including toddler had a wonderful time. Highly recommend this property!

This beautiful cottage is exactly as advertised. The hosts are great communicators and readily available. The property is very clean and great thought has been put into making this a home away from home for guests. The location is perfect with a winery, restaurants and farm markets / u pick farms within a short distance. Swimming area is also very nice. Overall, a wonderful stay.

Great week of vacation at Hart's Haven! Perfectly located to experience all the best that PEC can offer, local produce, great winery nearby, and direct access to the lake. Excellent choice for a small family to spend some quality time in a cozy cottage.

Very lovely and clean cottage, exceptionally well equipped with lots of extras. Peaceful and private location. Perhaps packing water/gripp shoes would be helpful for enjoying the water due to the rocky entry.

Prince Edward County Getaway

We truly enjoyed our cozy cottage on the water. It was very clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was well equipped. The screened in porch was ideal for chatting, eating a home-cooked meal, quiet reading, and playing boardgames. There were lots of outdoor seating options. Close to some good restaurants and interesting shops for foodies.

Early June stay

The cottage is small but has everything we needed and probably had the best equipped kitchen of any cottage I’ve rented. The beds are very comfortable.The wind really picks up in the afternoon so it made for a chilly time in early June. We had some issues with the inside TV and internet but the host was very prompt in troubleshooting and solving.

What a Gem!

We had a fantastic time staying at this very well appointed cottage. The owners clearly take pride in their place. It is beautifully and tastefully renovated. The location is fabulous, right next to a vineyard with a wonderful restaurant, yet quiet. The setting is serene and right on the water, yet so convenient with a short drive into Picton with its shops and restaurants. If you get a chance to call this place your home-away-from-home you will not be disappointed! We'll be back!

A week by the water.

This perfect little cottage down a long driveway next to Waupoos winery offered lakefront access that led to both morning and evening swims. basically whenever the mood struck which was often. Otherwise We enjoyed bbqing nightly off the front deck, watching shows on the sectional couch at night and also the screened in second living room that provided more space and a nice breeze. We also fired up the indoor fireplace on one rainy night and got cozy. An overall wonderful, restful experience.
