About the area

Picton

Located in Prince Edward, this cottage is in a rural area and on the waterfront. While the natural beauty of Sandbanks Provincial Park and Lake on the Mountain Provincial Park can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore Sandbanks Estate Winery. Prince Edward County Lavender Farm and Caddy Shack Mini Golf are also worth visiting. With kayaking, fishing and swimming nearby, you'll find plenty of adventures in the water.

Thanks for the great stay. Good communication, great location. We were there for 4 nights with 3 kids (8 to 12). Accommodations are great : superb kitchen (never seen so many things in a rental - was fantastic and allowed us to cook much!), bal games and others. Kids enjoyed the pool, ping-pong table, tennis court and others. We walked to the beach to catch sunsets and were a short drive from Sandbanks major beaches. Highly recommend this place. Thanks again!

Butternut Cottage

We were 3 adults and a child. The cottage supplied numerous games and sports equipment we could used. We were a short walk from the pool, courts, mini putt, ping pong etc. Staff, esp lifeguards, and other residents and renters were very friendly. We were there in a 4 day major heat wave and the air conditioning was up to the task. We hope to come again.

Beautiful cottage in the best location!

2 Teens, grandma and I all enjoyed our long weekend at this cottage! It’s so close to the beautiful beaches and trails at Sandbanks Provincial Park, and the historic town of Picton, and wineries! There’s so much to do in the cottage community too. We’re definitely coming back! It was so convenient and plenty of room for us. We could bbq and cook easily at our cottage, or lots of restaurant choices around. A great, clean, well laid out vacation spot! Highly recommend!!!
