Private Waterfront Cottage on the lake
Enjoy this peaceful 2-bdrm cottage on the lake surrounded by trees, with your own dock, canoe, and pedal-boat. When not relaxing on the beautiful deck or on the water, you're just a 20 minute drive to Charlottetown, 25 minutes to incredible north shore beaches or 25 minutes to world-class golf at Crowbush Cove! One queen bed and one bunkbed make it perfect for 2-4 people. There is a futon in the living room too.

Owners have a "For Sale" sign at the roadway. This is very telling for the remainder.Over half of the drawers in the dressers/night stands are broken. My kids had to stack their drawers on the floor in their room because they could not be used in the dresser.Fitted sheets were not on the beds at arrival, rather in the drier. Disappointing to have to remake your bed upon arrival.Futon bed/couch frame in the living room is VERY broken. This could not be used as a bed at all. You would have to remove the mattress to the floor if you wanted to use it as a bed. To me this makes the claim that this place sleeps 6 not true.Washer/dryer are not shown in the interior pictures. They are of the stackable variety and are located next to the fridge where the dining table is shown. This is especially deceptive because it gives a very inaccurate sense of the space, worse the table is now in an area with no overhead lighting and makes accessing the master bedroom and bathroom cumbersome.Kitchen tools, pans, etc, are laugable at best.Significant spider problem.NOT property owners fault or factored in my rating:We really were looking forward to using the lakeside area shown in photos for camp fires, throwing a ball around, sitting by or going out on the lake etc. This was not possible due to the HEAVY amount of mosquitoes. We had one afternoon with enough wind off the lake to keep them down but apart from that the backyard was unuseable despite all our mosquito defense efforts.

Cottage life
We usually visit PEI with our camper, but this year we decided to rent a cottage. Our stay in Mount Stewart was great. The cottage was clean and it had all of the little details we needed. Communication with the owners was excellent. Wewoulrent from this owner again
