The location is perfect near to the beach with the shallow water. Great for toddlers. The property was the best ever that our family has rented. Sheldon was always available to help with questions. The house was immaculate upon arrival. It was stocked with everything we could possibly need for our stay. We plan to return. Many thanks for a perfect family vacation. ##### Mark R.

All instructions provided to operate the systems. Could not have been happier! The tides cooperated and provided hours of walking and clam digging. Just could not have been more pleased. ##### Terry C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen C. Jul 31, 2018 #### Beautiful house, location & hosts We were greeted by one of the owners who took time to explain details of house & how to contact her(them) if we needed to. We had 10 adults and two 3 year olds in our party. Plenty of room for everyone and the yard was huge for burning off extra energy. Hot Tub was definitely appreciated & loved by most of the adults after long days being tourists! Small draw back was the bedroom by the kitchen was not very sound proof but we worked around it. The beach was just around the corner within a very easy walk and able to spend hours wading in warm pools after tide went out or could swim in ocean if you wanted & kids had so much fun finding hermit crabs ( all released back with no injury to animal or human :) ) and building sand castles! Easy drive to Summerside for shopping & not far from Charlottown or Cavendish either. Highly recommend this house for your next PEI getaway. We will be keeping contact info for our next vacation in PEI!!! Thank you Kathy & Leon ##### Karen C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Justin A. Aug 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Summer multi-family vacation This is our second trip to PEI, but our first at this property. We had 4 kids under 13 and 6 adults. The bedrooms with separate baths gave all of us so much space. The large kitchen with large fridge and freezer allowed plenty of space for food. The basement area was perfect to allow the kids there own zone to hang out in. The back deck was a common hang out throughout the day and we spent time in the hot tub after the kids were asleep to unwind before bed. The house and view are amazing enough to want to return, but the beach just puts this place over the top. Even at high tide there is plenty of beach to enjoy. Low tide brought hours of exploration, paddleboarding, skim boarding, kayaking, sand castles! The kids made there own dirt shirts on the beach, and found hermit crabs and sand dollars too! The house is in close proximity to everything we needed. 8 of us went deep sea fishing towards Cavendish while 2 went shopping in Charlottetown. We explored summerside and Victoria, enjoyed a nice toy shop with a wood toy maker shop out back, and would recommend everyone go to provisions for homemade jam, breakfast, a garden walk to see the farm animals and butterfly house. Clearly we all had a wonderful vacation! The owner of the house is always available although rarely needed! This is my new preferred spot on the island! ##### Justin A.

It was beautiful, very roomy and an excellent house for us since each bedroom has its own bathroom. Each couple had their own privacy and the large living areas inside and out were great for dinners together, relaxation, conversation and games.

We throughly enjoyed our stay and really appreciated the idea of having a bedroom with attached bathroom available for each couple. There was easy access to the beach which we walked everyday at low tide. One couple actually went swimming one day ...amazing for Sept. The kitchen was well layed out for multiple cooks and very well equiped. This is thr 3rd cottage that I have rented for a family vacations and this one is by far the best todate. Lorne and Cathy were quick to respond to all of our questions/concerns and were very helpful. Thanks once agian Cathy for the Homemade Wild Blueberry Pie and Ice Cream. What a lovely touch!

The home easily accommodated all of us. The location is perfect with a lovely beach literally across the street. All the amenities you could want and Kathy was the perfect hostess. The peach cobbler was awesome! Thank you. The only suggestion would be perhaps a picnic table or such for eating outside during the day. Hope to return again, thank you so much!!! ##### sandra l.

This home is beautiful, well-appointed, modern, clean and spacious. We were three generations (6 adults and 1 toddler) staying for a week and there was plenty of room for everyone. The location is a peaceful haven, with spectacular views and a stone's throw from the beach. Fun to wander out at low-tide! The hot tub, kites, bike, kayaks, pinball machine and sand toys all helped to make our week extra fun. Can't say enough about how wonderful it was and also how great Kathy, the caretaker is about ensuring you have everything you need.

We were made to feel very welcome by Leonand his mom, and they were in attendance to ensure that any little issues were remedied immediately. A welcoming tin of delicious cookies and provision of a yummy rhubarb crisp to complement one of our cook-in dinners were lovely surprises. The home is very modern, clean and spacious, fully equipped in the kitchen for meal prep. The hot tub was perfect for relaxing after golf. The only bed that wasn't comfortable was the pull out in the den, and I believe they are looking to improve that. I hope to return one day, and highly recommend this facility to anyone who wants a real home while visiting PEI. Thanks Leon and Kathy! ##### Patricia H.

Aug 18, 2016 #### Incredibly cozy, luxurious, functional property We had an amazing time at the Blue Heron's Retreat. We used the kayaks, the kites, the hot tub and everything was sparkling clean and in great condition. We were a party of 9 (ranging from 4 - 39) and had more than enough room to fully enjoy the accommodations. We even played several games of hide and go seek! The view of the ocean from the porch and our rooms made it so relaxing and so did our numerous walks at low tide on the beach, which was at walking distance (2 minutes). The local general store is a 10-minute car ride from the house with everything you would needed and well priced. Kathy welcomed us and took time to give us a tour and go over some details as well as suggest various attractions and activities to do on the island. What made her hospitality exceptional is the awesome chocolate-caramel 3-layer cake she baked for us. Our little one had forgotten her blankie and Kathy was nice enough to send it back with a hand-written note and a little surprise for our child. We would recommend this home to anyone who would like to create wonderful life time memories and we will be back. ##### Philippe C.

My extended family and I thoroughly enjoyed our PEI experience and the Blue Heron Retreat played an integral part, being our home while on vacation. This place is very well appointed and extremely welcoming and confortable, the little touches like a mini wooden boat with soaps and toiletries, the sand toys in the garage to the Meile Steamer Oven in the kitchen and all the other tools to enjoy a perfect lobster feast of our own. Many Thanks from the extended Michaelis Family ##### Anthony M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2016 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Shawna S. Jul 24, 2016 #### Amazing large family vacation! We were 6 adults and 4 kids ages 6 and under and there was enough space and things to do for everyone! The home is spacious and well laid out so that we all had our own space- the fact that each room has an ensuite is big bonus. We loved watching the tides come in and out and gathering shells. The bathrobes were a nice touch to lounge in and for the hot tub. The location of the house is perfect for day tripping to cities around the island and amenities are close by. Kathy and Lorne were wonderful hosts, and full of information (and goodies). Gorgeous scenery and a great time was had by all. ##### Shawna S.

Lots to do without even leaving the property. We had 15 family members stay (ranging from 23 - 70 something yrs) very comfortably for a week. Leon, Lorne and Kathy were amazing at making sure we had beds for everyone (provided a couple of air mattresses for us) and were very quick with repairs (lightening struck which created a couple of electrical issues). We were able to get everyone in the kayaks at least once(which Kathy made sure at least one of us was an experienced paddler before bringing over the life jackets), the hot tub was our place to congregate in the evening and the 20 year olds had a pinball tournament happening! Great people, very welcoming (even baked a delicious cake for us all), helpful with what to see and do. Would go back in a heartbeat! ##### ally H.
