This spot is able to handle and sleep 8 people easily. There is an open space living space with big windows, a kitchen which is fully equipped, a propane fireplace, an excellent outdoor furniture. The basement has a games room, TV and a bar plus of course another bedroom. The three bedroom on the mainfloor were all comfortable. We had great time. There are lots of places around Kempt Shore to discover. The communication with the host was excellent. The information provided covered all aspects. Thank you.
This was a fantastic spot for a weekend get away with friends. Great comfy furniture, excellent beds, million dollar view! Couldn’t really ask for more!
Perfect spot for a getaway with friends- comfortable rooms, well equipped kitchen, large deck and hot tub was a bonus. Magnificent views of the bay from the house and while walking along the beach. Welcoming host, easy check in and prompt communication when needed. Thank you for sharing your Beach House!
I was tasked to find a place for us for a weekend getaway that was not too far, had a hot tub, etc. etc. etc. This beautiful location checked all the boxes, and then some! We had deer greet us each morning and evening. We had a bit of a hard time finding the path to the beach but once we found it, it did not disappoint! We toured the area and supported local wineries and went to The Flying Apron for brunch which I would highly recommend! We will be back!!
This property is what rural dreams are made out of. The property was clean, welcoming with fresh cut flowers, stocked kitchen, air-conditioned, and one of the most beautiful views you're ever going to see. If you want to kick back and relax, this is the place for you. If you want to play lively games with your family, like we did, there is plenty of room. We never went without anything. Didn't have to ask for a single thing. It was all there, we just had a great time and made a tonne of memories. The walk to the beach was easy, you do have to watch the tide schedule, but even at high tide we could still spend time beach combing and relaxing. The Flying Apron Cafe is a few minutes away, and probably has some of the best food I've ever eaten.There's a small convenience store account 20 minutes away. We did a trip to the Quarry, a local swimming hole, it was fantastic. We did a day trip to Windsor where we enjoyed the newly located Naked Crepe Cafe. We did an afternoon at Smileys Provincial Park. It's a little gem of a park with picnic tables, a new playground, and little creek you could walk down, water shoes recommended for this.Jen and Susan were great to communicate with. Very timely. Don't miss out on booking this home.
