PEI Beach House on 14 acres



This property is a strong part of the Irish History on PEI. This land was settled in the mid 1800's and this house was the second home built for the Reilly family. It sits on 14 acres and has easy beach access. Every effort has been made to keep the home as authentic as possible and with the exception of the bathroom, deck and sunroom on the back, everything is very much as it was intended to be.

The first thing about this property is it's location. It's truly a get away from it all kind of place. The meandering path to the beach, the private cove, a babbling brook, and stunning sunsets make this a place of peace and contentment. The beach is ideal for beach fires, gatherings, bass fishing and star gazing. You won't want to miss all the sky has to offer both day and night.

Charlottetown is a day trip. Two hours from Cape Wolfe and while the maps say its less the drive is so scenic you will need to plan for lots of breaks. But if local is your thing you can take a drive up to North Cape along the shore. This drive has been voted one of the 10 best drives in Canada. You can take in Skinner's Pond, Nail Pond, Sea Cow Pond, North Cape just to name a few of the most breath taking views. Local produce and fish is abundant. The fish truck comes into O'Leary a couple of days a week and roadside stands offer up fresh produce. There is also a fishing cove near the house where you can buy fresh scallops and lobsters depending on the season. If your lucky enough to find a fisherman who bottles his own bar clams never pass them up!

The kitchen is updated with lots of room for dinning and relaxing. It's fully equipped and you are invited to use the staples provided. Cooking local fair is a passion and meals are to be enjoyed.

There is a large deck off the porch and an outdoor bbq. There is also an out building that has a lobster cooker and all the fixings for a feed are provided. You can buy your fresh lobster right from the boat to your pot to enjoy (season permitting). Of course there are Oysters. If Oysters are your thing let us know when your booking and we will arrange a meeting with one of the local growers.

Mill River Golf course is nearby and it's a beautiful course. The area also has a lighthouse you can tour, a potato museum, and weekly Ceilidhs close by. There are lots of beaches for combing and sea glass to be collected. Tell us your interests when you book and we'll do our best to connect you. After all, we want you to love PEI as much as we do.

Perfect ocean front retreat
What a find - 10/10! Our family of four (kids 17&19) stayed four nights at the end of August 20204. This beautiful farmhouse has an interesting history which is provided in a write up hanging on the wall. The house has been updated over the years to provide modern conveniences, yet it retains the charm and heritage of the original home. It is very well cared for - clean, comfortable and everything functions as it should. The property is amazing, with a mix of trees and grassy meadow which provides both privacy and a waterfront view from the house. The trail to the beach is a short, easy walk through the meadow and the waterfront is gorgeous and ever changing with the rise and fall of the tides. We had a fabulous time relaxing, beach combing, fishing, paddle boarding (we had our own boards), swimming, star gazing, roasting marshmallows by a beach fire and playing the many games found in the house. Everything we needed during our stay was provided, and the hosts were great people and quick to respond to any questions. Groceries were a quick 15 minute drive away, as were some fun attractions like the Potato Museum and the West Point Lighthouse. We stayed four nights but happily could have done a week or two. Thank you Lynn and Shawn for sharing this amazing property and for being such great hosts.

Seven Days in Heaven!
A beautiful home with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. With access to the beach on the property, I could walk down to the beach with my coffee every morning without waiting for the rest of the family to get up! When we weren’t at the beach, we relaxed in the screened in porch. Our hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had and made us feel at home. We enjoyed a few day trips- the 2 hour drive to Charlottetown gave us the opportunity to see most of the island and it was always so nice to return to C-SALT Cottage!

Incredible Stay
Our first VRBO experience and we could not have been happier. Driving up to this beautiful home was only the beginning as we rounded the front of the house to a view of the water that is post card worthy. Inside the house has all the amenities you will need for a perfect stay with the best room being the enclosed porch where we watched the sun go down each night over the water. Lots of space for everyone, and a great kitchen for cooking the local produce. Outside there is a great beach for rock collecting and swimming with the hosts providing all sorts of equipment to enjoy the area from bikes to outdoor sports equipment. The hosts were fantastic, answering all our questions quickly and providing a wealth of local knowledge. If you are looking for paradise in PEI, away from the heavy tourist scene this is the place for you!

Perfect PEI family vacation home
This house was absolutely perfect for our family's PEI vacation. The home has had many updates and is even better than the photos. At the same time, it has the character that only an older home possesses. I love all of the little details-- the sea themes, the Anne-inspired touches, the books on the shelves, etc. Having a private beach is amazing. What a view! The little stream and waterfall were lovely. We enjoyed playing cards in the sunroom on rainy days. Owner is quick to respond to any questions. Would stay here again!

The Reilly House - a home away from home
The whole family enjoyed our stay at The Reilly House. The home is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We felt right at home as soon as we entered the place. The house is clean and well maintained and has pretty much everything you need for your stay. The outdoor property is amazing and the views from the screened-in porch are incredible. We spent many evenings walking the very large property and taking in the views. It’s an easy walk to the beach and the kids really enjoyed the stream that flows from the property into the ocean. Although the property is in a rather secluded area nothing is very far away and everything is easy to get used to. Thank you Marcy for sharing your very wonderful place with us.

July 2022 West Cape
Everything at the house was in perfect order and all your needs met. The biggest surprise was seeing the screened in deck at the back of the house. It was perfect for watching sunsets and catching all the cool breezes from any direction when it got too hot. We love the location because we have friends all on the West side. Easy access to Bloomfield and O’Leary to get groceries etc. A little air conditioner on the top floor would have been nice when there were no breezes, but otherwise a great place to stay.

Relaxing and Beautiful!
This beautiful property on Cape Wolfe exceeded our expectations. We were thrilled to arrive to a very clean, well-appointed home with breathtaking views. We really enjoyed sitting on the back porch, that was completely screened in and bug-free and we would play board games and watch the gorgeous sunsets. Marcy was very accessible via text and thought of every detail to make our stay relaxing. She even provided beach towels for guests to use. The beach is a bit of a walk, but worth it- completely private and my kids loved running around and playing in the stream by the beach. I highly recommend this property and look forward to coming back soon!

Everything is true!
Our stay at the Reilly House was pretty much perfect! The house and the grounds are lovely, and as first timers to PEI, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The rooms were spotless and the kitchen had everything we needed to make ourselves at home. The beach was spectacular – very private and fun to explore. Marcy’s suggestions of where to go and what do were spot-on, so besides enjoying the property and the beach, we had a great time exploring all around the North Cape. Our family felt welcome and completely relaxed the whole time. We had a few clarification questions for Marcy and Curtis while we were there and heard back super-quick. It's a fairly remote spot, but that was what we were looking for, and only added to the whole experience of being on the island. We can’t recommend this spot highly enough. Thank you, Marcy and Curtis!

Charming cottage on the ocean
As soon as we all pulled in the driveway we fell in love with this perfect cottage and serene property. It is everything we thought it would be and more! The home was so inviting and decorated spot on for a beach house. The windows in the bedroom were open to feel this inviting breeze from the ocean. Everything you would ever need was thought of and included. The property was so stunning. A beautiful long walk to the ocean surrounded by wildflowers and the massive ocean with sand dunes up ahead. We loved walking along the private beach searching for sea glass and hearing the waves of the ocean. We also enjoyed playing croquet on the lawn! This was an absolute perfect experience for us, thank you so much for sharing your home with us!

Stunning location, cozy cottage
We loved the Reilly House! A bit off the beaten path, approx 1 hour 15 minutes from the Confederation Bridge, you won't be disappointed with the breathtaking views of the ocean in your own backyard. The beds were comfy, the cottage had everything you would need, worked well for our family of 2 adults, 4 kids. We didn't swim as the ocean was a bit choppy and cold for our liking but the kids didn't tire from going down to look for shells and crabs several times per day. We also found an amazing seafood restaurant 15 mins away called The Catch located south on highway #14 towards West Cape.

A great time was had by all.
We had a really wonderful 5 day stay. Six adults comfortably and entirely enjoyed the wonderful Reilly House cottage, walking and lounging on the virtually private red sand beach, swimming in the gulf, playing croquet and bocce on the expansive property, cooking fresh lobster, sunning on the deck, and exploring the cape and environs. We watched the Perseids meteor shower, and had a rainbow greet us one morning. A great time was had by all!!

Incredible hosts and place to stay
Can't say enough about our week at the house. It may not be for everyone, but if you want a more isolated location on PEI, with privacy then stay here. The hospitality and communication was incredible, fully stocked kitchen is always nice in a longer rental, there is plenty of space outside to run around and play, on top of a fairly private 3-4km stretch of beach (most people we saw was 4 in a day). House did get a little hot even with a breeze, and yes there were mosquitoes at various times, but we wouldn't hesitate to rent again. Make sure to stop in O'Leary for fresh fish whenever the fish truck parks (Tuesday and Friday for us). Also a great little restaurant and local beers at the Catch in West point.

A Magical Setting!
Our family loved spending a week here in July. The setting is just magical. Set with nothing but acres of wild flowers between the house and the ocean and a generous yard, my kids loved walking through the fields collecting wildflower bouquets, flying kites and playing soccer. We made driftwood fires on the beach nightly and loved exploring the very private beach, playing in the freshwater stream that leads into the ocean and playing in the sand. The sunset was amazing and the stars at night stunning. We made at an least once daily trek to the ice cream shop in O'Leary and cooked lots of fresh seafood. There were a few beaches/lighthouses within a short drive and some other spots we explored for half-day trips. The house itself is bigger than we thought it would be with an open kitchen/dining/informal sitting room and a larger separate sitting room downstairs as well as a keeping room with an updated washer/dryer. The three bedrooms are upstairs along with the bathroom and are decorated lovely with nice linens. The kitchen is well appointed and Marcy and her property manager Curtis were very courteous and prompt in communications. The only downside would be that there is only one bathroom upstairs, but we got used to it! I would also certainly recommend that anyone coming in the summer months bring bug spray as they can be pretty consistent outside. The view was worth it though! We want to make it back here!

Great house but busy beach with campers
Overall we had a very pleasant stay. Upon arrival, the property manager failed to greet us, however, we were able to get in touch with the owner right away and were given access to the property. The house is lovely, well maintained, and well stocked. The beds were comfy, the kitchen plentiful, the bathroom functional, and having a washing machine available was great! We made use of the supplied lobster cooker and bought lobsters off the boat less than five minutes away. I would give the house four, maybe even five stars, except... We booked this rental with the explicit desire for a private beach. The description said the beach was private and secluded. Upon arrival, there were campers with two tents on the beach, and remained there throughout the week. Several other groups came by for day use during the week, some parking on what seems to be the backyard of the property, driving and/or walking beside the house. Some brought dogs and didn't clean up after them. One evening we found a hole dug on our section of beach filled with used toilet paper. Because of this issue with the beach, I am afraid I must give this rental property a three star rating.

We loved our stay in the Reilly house, and the beach is a treasure.
My family and I spent 6 nights at the Reilly house and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. We spent hours swimming and exploring the beach, collecting sea glass, and enjoying beach fires in the evenings. The Potato Museum in nearby O'Leary, as well as the beach and Lighthouse at West Point, and the Wind Energy displays and hiking at North Point were all great and close day trips.

Total relaxation!
We loved our two weeks at the Reilly House. A wonderfully peaceful setting in Western PEI. A meadow, flowers, the sound of the waves, melodious wind chimes, a beautiful beach to explore: what could be better! The house was also perfect: clean, comfortable, remarkably and thoughtfully equipped. The beds were oh so comfortable! We experienced many gorgeous sunsets and enjoyed several campfires on the beach. We were also able to visit a good part of central and western PEI from our home base. The nearest shopping is in O'Leary a 15 minute ride away. There are several friendly and good restaurants within a 10 to 30 minute drive. We took advantage of some of these, but really enjoyed cooking and eating at the Reilly House while watching day turn into evening. We would definitely return!
