About this house rental
Located on the scenic shores of Smith's Bay (near Morrison Point, Milford) in Prince Edward County. Situated on a 5 acre wooded lot overlooking the beautiful Waupoos area (the name "Waupoos" is taken from the Ojibwa word waabooz "rabbit"). Waupoos is known as the centre for the cider and wine industry. We're 20 mins from Sandbanks Provincial Park, Picton and Bloomfield.
Prince Edward County is know for its picturesque wineries, parks, and lakes; a perfect location to get grounded - away from the stress of city life! Throw in some fishing and you're good to go!
Big House is located right on the lake - simple and clean. You'll have our own private deck, gas barbecue and fire pit (you can buy fire wood along the route or we may have available for sale). You’ll have access to the shallow in-ground communal pool and volleyball/badminton net. There’s a ping pong table and a foosball table in your private games room. We do have a peddle boat, single person kayak, a 2 person canoe and an aluminium boat.
You can bring your bikes (it's a cyclist paradise) and your water toys if you have. Hiking is great on the 48-kilometer-long scenic stretch of the Millennium Trail -this trail passes through farmers’ fields, marshes, and lush green forests.
There are 5 other cabins on the property 2-3brms & 3-2brms (Summer Only). You can rent the Big House and cabins for reunions, weddings or get togethers. In totals, you can host 36 guest between the Cabins and the Big House - be your own event planner!
Kitchen is equipped with your dishes, cutlery, pots, pans, cooking utensils. You need to bring your pantry items like your oils, spices, salt, pepper, paper towels, foil, dish soap and toiletries. We will supply your SEPTIC SAFE toilet paper.

RESTRICTIONS:

Well water system; so you need to be responsible with the water.
Remember, you've left your home in the city to enjoy nature and relax. We will not have all the luxuries that you have at home - remember the days of camping in cottage country - bring the s'mores, light a campfire and let the kids experience the simple life - these are what childhood memories are built on

We were a family of 10 people staying at the Big House. The layout of the home was well thought out and the house had everything we needed. I loved the bright, spacious and cozy cottage atmosphere that made the experience one to remember. The owners, Robert and Paula were wonderful and always available for questions or any other needs. They had lifejackets in all sizes even for my 1 year old granddaughter. My adult children used the kayaks, canoe, and paddle boats. My favorite part of the day was sitting on the patios, looking out onto the bay and seeing the ducks and swans. The view was beautiful. The home was perfect for a large family like mine. Thank you

We were three families and friends with small children. We stayed at the big house and had tons of room. The area is beautiful. We did lots of paddle boarding, swam in the pool and had bonfires. Checked out Sandbanks beach and lake on the mountain. The town of Picton is cute and had everything we needed. Paula and Bob were super nice and accommodating and provided extras to make the kids happy like bouncy house and golf cart ride. We had a great time and will be returning.

We had 7 adults and 4 children in our group and the house was perfect!! The kitchen is very well equipped as is the rest of the house.
The kids had a blast in the pool, the lake, and roasting marshmallows!
Bob and Paula were accommodating and offered several wonderful ideas for places to eat and things to do.
This is an outstanding destination for families!

7 adults and one 11 year old stayed at the Big House at Smith’s Bay. There was lots of room for everyone to spread out with5 bedrooms and a basement suite plus 3.5 bathrooms. The kitchen is really well equipped. The pool and waterfront with a beautiful view were a bonus. The owners live on the property and responded immediately when we needed anything.they also gave us the use of a season’s pass to Sandbanks and other great tips about wineries and restaurants. Highly recommended.
