About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

For family or romantic getaways, or a retreat, this beautiful space awaits you

The house comfortably fits 6 people and can easily sleep 8 with the extra bed. Each bedroom contains its own bathroom and shower, and with the master bedroom there is also a big soaker tub. If it's raining and you want to cozy up inside with a good book, the living room contains 3 couches and the sitting room has a love seat. A big screen TV is there for your enjoyment, too. A spacious kitchen with all the amenities will let a family cook together . And, for your lobster, fish, or steaks and burgers (ask me about our local butcher) there is a barbecue and a big deck with the water view for an evening of good food and connection. The grounds are spacious and secluded. An area for crackling bonfires and star gazing is already set with chairs and waiting. Spend afternoons exploring the Points East Drive which will take you to golf courses, a swimming pool, the Rossignal Winery, other villages such as Murray Harbour, and unique restaurants. The stunning Panmure Island beach and lighthouse are less than a 5 minute drive away. (or you can venture to the beach on our provided bicycles) Aim for a sunset dinner at the Sandspit restaurant right at Panmure. The town of Montague where you can shop for your food, fill your car, eat at restaurants, or go for ice cream is only a short drive from the house. And, the capital of Prince Edward Island, historic Charlottetown is only a 50 minute drive. Or... you can just stay "home" and take the canoe out for a nice, relaxing paddle.

An idyllic place to stay
Our family loved spending the week at this beautiful house / property. We enjoyed plenty of space for the 6 of us (plus dog) and gorgeous views from every window. The house is rural enough to feel like you're away from it all, but not too far from town if you need something. The owner stopped by once to make sure everything was all right, which I appreciated. I can definitely see us coming back in the future.

PEI adventure
My husband and I spent two weeks in this lovely PEI retreat. We were joined by our daughter, son-in- law and teenage grandson. The home was large enough to allow everyone to have their own space without feeling like we were sitting on top of each other. We all enjoyed exploring the area around Montague and the points east route. We walked the ocean floor behind the house at low tide and spent many days enjoying the beautiful beach at Panmure island, which is just five minutes away. Everything we needed was in this summer home, as it came with a well equipped kitchen and lots of linens. While the home is aging and some renovations will begin this fall, this did not affect our enjoyment of the property. My favourite place to view the ocean was from the sitting room by the patio doors. This sitting area would benefit from some new furniture as the furniture currently there is quite uncomfortable Our host Billy was very responsive and helpful during our stay. He made sure we had everything we needed and he even cut up some firewood so we could have a bonfire. Thanks for everything Billy. We had a wonderful family vacation and when my desire to be on that beautiful beach overtakes me again, I will be back.

Our family of 6 had a great time!
The property is as described. It had everything we needed to cook and bbq. We used the air mattress that was provided and it was excellent. The kids took the kayaks out on the bay and enjoyed them a bunch. We gave a couple of the bikes a spin and they were great. The property is a short drive to Panmure Island beach - which is excellent - one the best on the island. The path to the bay behind the cottage is a bit overgrown but it has been cleared. There is a small lagoon on the property but it is out of the way. The waters edge behind the cottage is not really a beach as it is a bit muddy and has quite a bit of shells and dried seaweed, so bring your swim shoes. The location is very quiet and tucked away nicely - very private. We did find ourselves driving a lot as the cottage is out of the way. The weather on our trip was just ok - so went out more than planned. We would stay again! Thanks Billy!

Bugs everywhere
Nice looking house however every evening we were inundated with black beetles crawling around. Also, to get the beach you had to walk through a swamp and weeds to get there.

Good space
The property was large and clean with a fantastic kitchen! The home does need a little sprucing up . Furniture inside off the deck is patio furniture and not that comfortable. The path down to the water is not well maintained and is not a swimming area. On the other hand you are about a 2minute drive from Panmure Island which has an excellent beach, which more than makes up for it. Overall it was a nice place to stay with lots of space and each bedroom had a bathroom. Beautiful area of P.E.I.

Honest Review.
I had a very love-hate relationship with this VRBO. We are a family of 5. 2 adults & 3 kids. all under the age of 11. PROS, - Being able to bring our dog was also a huge plus for us. Note to all future renters.... please pick up after your dog! I did see some poop, it wasn't a big deal to me, I picked it up, but if you want places like this to stay pet friendly. please don't leave poop. - communication was great. He responded almost immediately to everything I asked about/for. No complaints there. - The house is very large and it fit our family without any issues, the kids weren't on top of one another at any point - All the dishes you need are there. I think the only thing missing was something to crack lobster open with. - Beach towels, shower towels, extra sheets, and Blankets, all there. CONS, - We are from a big city so naturally, we expect to be able to lock up the house at night before going to sleep. We weren't able to lock the garage door or 3 windows on the lower level. The owner came and locked the garage the day after we arrived. The windows I braced with a piece of wood every night before bed, this will require more of his time to fix, which didn't make sense to have him there while we were there. But not being able to lock the house up properly each night was a little nerve-wracking. I didn't sleep well. - The house is optically clean... if this makes sense to someone. but window openings were sticky with what felt like grease build up... maybe past sticky fingers. The kitchen counters were similar, like an oil/grease build-up. I think the floor was mopped before we arrived because the owner came back to get a mop, but we were still left with black feet after walking around the house without shoes. -baseboards are thick with dust all over the house, and hair in the bathroom drains - Dishes are all available to you, but I don't believe they check them after someone leaves. Anything we needed, we absolutely had to wash first. Food was visibly crusted to almost everything, and if not food, a sticky film... like grease. - Spices are available but we were only able to use the salt, everything else the humidity had turned into a hard clump and we were unable to use any of it. - you cannot access the water easily. It's doable but not easy, the point of choosing this location was water access and we were so disappointed. Would I book again.... yes, but I'd look for something else first. It would be a 2nd choice.

Very attentive owner
Two issues developed and were addressed immediately without hesitation: 1) told owner a wasp nest was developing by the front door. Within minutes he arrived with spray and distributed the nest; 2) when told the heat at night was unbearable for the two young kids (32 celcius) during the heat spell, he went out and purchased an air conditioner and installed it within an hour. Very impressive and beyond expectations

We truly enjoyed our stay. The home is clean and comfortable with a wonderful host. We were 3 couples who stayed a week. The house was perfect for our group. Panmure island is everything you want in a beach and only a bike ride or short drive away. We hope to return. Thank you Billy

Cottage property on the island. Billy was easy to deal with, prompt in responses, and the property was pretty much as described. A little difficult to get to the water, but that is the property, not much to be done about it. Enjoyed our stay, close to town but far enough away for privacy.

Peace and quiet with a lovely bay view
Cann’s Waterfront Retreat provides a large house, well equipped, to accommodate a family. We found the self contained bedrooms to be large and convenient, with bathrooms in each. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped. A large dining room and sitting area gave us lots of space. The large deck, with BBQ, patio set and extra chairs gave us a nice outdoor eating area. The fire pit and a small swing set gave our granddaughter a nice place to play. The house is located in a treed area, well off of the road, to give a quiet country retreat. Shopping in Montague was good, but you need to remember it is about a 15 minute drive one way. Plan your grocery shopping accordingly. The house is very close to Panmure Provincial Park, where you will finding a fantastic, long beach. The property owner was very helpful, providing with us with equipment for a toddler and lots of good local information. If you are looking for a quiet getaway, you should consider this property for your next vacation.

Stayed for 2 weeks July 29th to August 12th - my husband and I ,along with our black lab. Found home very spacious and clean. Very lovely area as a base to explore eastern PEI but only 1 hr to Charlottetown. Home has so many windows and caught all breezes as temperatures reached to 29 C for 1-2 days . Beds were comfortable and all kitchen and bathrooms fixtures were clean and high end. Thank you for a great time Bette and Roland Dumas
