** Please check the calendar on the "Availability" button above... if the cottage shows "Available" on your dates of interest, it is! Please note that we have a 4 night minimum stay requirement.** Our guest book is filled with comments like "a slice of heaven"; "we really hated to leave"; "fantastic beach cottage"; "perfect holiday"; etc. Our summer home is located directly on the beach on the Northumberland Strait in a private setting on four acres. The location features a beautiful red sand beach and warm, shallow waters, with spectacular long-range views of Northumberland Strait, Cape Egmont lighthouse, Mont Carmel cathedral, the Confederation Bridge, and the distant shore of New Brunswick. The chalet-style cottage is turn-key with all needed equipment provided - you only need to bring food, beverages, personal items, and consumables for a great time! The beach is composed of very fine, soft, red sand, with virtually no rocks or pebbles beyond the shoreline. June-August the water temperature often is in the high 70's (~24-25 C) meaning you can spend all day wading and swimming in the water without getting blue lips or chattering teeth. The shallow waters extend out hundreds of feet, at which point they are still only waist-deep, making the beach perfect (and safe) for young children. There is an extensive lawn around the cottage for kids to run around and play games. There are aluminum stairs with handrails on each size leading down (~5 feet) to the beach from the lawn for easy access by young and old alike.

| We had already come in 2018 with the whole family and we had to come back! It's a fantastic location with the sea just a few steps from the house, really peaceful. The perfect place to make sandcastles, take long walks on the beach and above all swim in incredibly comfortable water! Thank you again for this wonderful stay!

| The property exceeded our expectations. Can't believe we practically had the beach to ourselves for the week. The kids (okay the adults too) loved low tide and digging for clams, and searching for sea glass.
The cottage it self was well equipped for our needs.
We have been home for a week and definitely missing our nightly beach fires!!!
Hope to return to this cottage again one day.
Thanks so much James and Carolyn for a memorable vacation, our first visit to PEI did not disappoint.

Owner response: Hello, Krista It was nice to meet you and your family. We are thrilled to hear that you had a great time at Red Sands Cottage. Thank you for taking the time to write such a glowing review! We hope that you will indeed chose to stay with again in the future. Thanks also for donating the great beach chairs...other guests will certainly enjoy them! Kind regards, Jamie and Carolyn | |

| The BEST location for kids!! We stayed here from June 25th to July 2nd with our 2.5 year old daughter and golden retriever. The cottage exceeded our expectations. Lovely beach area at low tide for our daughter to play in, and a huge grassy area to run around on as well. Cottage is well stocked with everything you need. You are responsible for your own garbage which was super easy to do, the dump is on the way to Summerside so we did a run mid week and our final day. Thank you James and Carolyn for sharing your lovely property with us! (And for your incredible patience dealing with all the Covid delays to our vacation that was initially supposed to happen in 2020!)

Owner response: Dear Christina and Mike... we are so very pleased to hear that you had a great vacation at Red Sands Cottage. It was nice that the timing of the low-low tides the week that you were here was such that you could enjoy the sand bars during daylight hours. We look forward to having you stay with us again in the future! Warm regards, Jamie and Carolyn | |

| Stayed at Red Sands cottage for 3 nights with another couple and our Labrador Retriever. It was everything we were looking for and more. Spacious with all amenities. Easy access to the beach and our dog was able to enjoy his private pool.
We were also able to do some cycling with access to the beautiful bike trail only 10 km from the cottage.
Highly recommend this place.
Josette and Roger
