Property Description
Ocean Dream Beach House is a truly treasured summer home in the fact that access to the white sandy beach is safe (no cliffs) and directly off the property grounds. Designed to make for easy and comfortable living, the kitchen, dining and living room are combined into a 30'x30' area with a 14' high pine ceiling. The furnishings were selected to please the eye, but also to invite you to put your feet up. Over time, unique island antiques, paintings and objects from well regarded island artists have been added.
There’s a large plasma screen with HDTV satellite programming, VCR/DVD all tucked away in an armoire. Forgot to bring a book? We’ve got some. Satellite music choices not enough? Play our CDs. Chess, cards, games for old and young kids are all in place, as are binoculars, a putting matt and a metal detector - for our beachcombing friends.
Indoors and out join on the home’s oceanside, where a completely screened deck with 10' wood ceilings spans the entire front. One side is given over to al fresco dining while the other is devoted to comfort lounging to read, listen to music through the deck speakers, gaze at the ocean or the stars or the hummingbirds, hawks and eagles – yes, eagles.
Walk a few steps over the lush lawn to the dune’s edge where Chesapeake chairs await your contemplation of the ocean and its sea life. The large lawn provides an area for sunning and games, including horseshoes and badminton.
And finally, the large capacity hot water heater is big enough to allow all the baths to be used at once, with the dishwasher thrown in for good measure. The water is filtered to remove sediment and purified by ultraviolet. Hair dryer? Yes. Giant plush bath towels? Of course. And separate beach towels...Your memories are waiting!

The Confederation Trail, much of which follows an old railroad bed, provides traffic-free cycling through farmlands and forest. Bike rental and helmets can be found in St. Peter's.

Reviews
The weather was lovely and temperate. Our favorite moments were the ocean, the ocean and the ocean! Thanks so much for sharing your piece of paradise with us. We really enjoyed ourselves and found the accommodations and surroundings perfectly comfortable and serene.
From the minute we opened the door of the cottage it felt just like home. We had a fantastic month with many great memories. We felt we had a little piece of heaven; between the ocean, sunsets and the cottage it is very hard to leave. Being our first time on PEI this holiday will always hold special memories!!
