About this cottage rental
Kat's Cradle is located about 15 minutes east of Picton near the natural wonder of Lake-on-the-Mountain, Glenora Ferry, the Waupoos Winery, and County Cider. Located on the Bay of Quinte in a quiet location along the south shore of Adolphus Reach, Kat's Cradle is a great place for rest and relaxation. This one level cottage accommodates a maximum of 4 persons (local by-law 4518-2019). July and August - weekly only, check in/out Sunday
This comfortable two bed-room open concept vacation home includes a stone fireplace, oak hardwood floors, a huge water view deck with lounge chairs and bistro set plus a gazebo. The master bedroom features queen size bed with a walk out patio door to the water view deck. The second bedroom also contains a queen sized bed. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, cutlery and cooking pans, pots and utensils. The sitting area has a TV as well as WIFI. Please note it is rural internet and while it is fairly robust, it does have connectivity issues during the summer months but is usually available in the evenings.
Children will enjoy playing in the spacious and shaded yard and the dock will provide hours of fishing entertainment. In the evening you will take delight in grilling your dinner on the deck while appreciating the wonderful view of the bay. End the day by roasting marshmallows and telling tales around the waterside campfire as the sun sets over the bay.
While you're here, be sure to check out the many other attractions of Prince Edward County including the wineries, breweries and distilleries and the famous Sandbanks Provincial Park. If you're looking for adventure, you could tour the local wineries, spend the day at a spa, shop and browse in the boutiques, artisan and antique shops, dine out at a fine restaurant or pub, play a round of golf, tour the County on bicycle, try your luck at fishing or check out the local farm markets.
The waterfront is over 140' in length and has a drive in boat launch alongside a 5' x 20' dock. The availability of the dock is contingent upon water levels (if they are substantially higher than normal, the dock may not be available - this has happened for only 2 months in our over 10 years of renting the property).
Per By-Law 167-2022 all renters must be advised that the cottage is located on a private road and Prince Edward County emergency services may be delayed as a result.

Cottage was small and rustic a perfect size for the two of us with an amazing view of the water. Host was friendly, responsive and very welcoming. Unfortunately, the weather let us down as it was quite cold, wet and windy ( expected at this time of the year I suppose).The best part was watching the wildlife. Plenty of Loons and Canada Geese, who would park themselves on the water right outside the property and stay a while. It was quite the treat watching a family of River Otters playing and eating before scurrying back to their den. The Swans who can forget the swans, beautiful!There’s a short drive into Picton to bakeries, cafes, shops and restaurants.All in all we enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to do it again earlier than the end of October.

We loved our stay at Kat's Cradle!! The location on the lake was beautiful, and the cottage itself was so cute and cozy, even better than the photos! Everything was super clean, and the cottage had everything we could need. The host even left us water and a local treat in the fridge which was so thoughful and apprecaited. Communication with the host was fast and efficient. Would definitely reccomend!!
