Our spacious, well-appointed and secluded three bedroom chalet-style cottage offers an ideal relaxing getaway with a stunning view across the Southwest River in the picturesque fishing village of New London, 10 minutes from Cavendish National Park.
Our one-acre property boasts over 150 feet of south facing shoreline on the tidal Southwest River just a short distance from the mouth of the ocean.

The cottage itself is set back on a slope nestled among mature trees on each side affording our guests full privacy while still providing a gorgeous view of the river and valley from the living room, bedrooms and each of three large decks.

Our property has a 30 ft patio for lounging or eating. Guests have full access to our two sea kayaks. The front of the cottage faces to the South and as a result the property, deck and dock are blanketed with sunshine most of the day.

The cottage features comfortable furnishings and reclaimed pine flooring throughout — all carefully chosen to reflect a warm and inviting cottage ambiance. All new major kitchen appliances were installed in 2021.

We have new, high quality mattresses topped with quality cotton linens and summer-weight feather duvets, and have both bath and beach towels in good supply. Our bathroom is spacious and the claw foot tub is perfect for taking a leisurely soak at the end of the day but also boasts a wall mounted nozzle for showering.

We have outside lounge chairs and a picnic table for outdoor relaxation and dining as well as an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach. The cottage is equipped with a washer/dryer for guests' use as well as a Smart TV connected to high speed internet, DVD player and of course a BBQ for outdoor cooking.

Location is central to many north shore attractions including golf, beaches, lobster dinners, and deep sea fishing.

    A very comfortable place to stay. Wonderful view of the water from the upper deck, comfortable beds, quiet and peaceful. The eagle next with, two eagles coming and going were fascinating to watch. Every question or request for information was quickly answered by the hosts. We loved our stay there and Prince Edward Island is a wonderful place to explore.

    The house was a perfect base for exploring PEI, but was also fantastic to hang back and relax. Check-in was super easy and the hosts made themselves available for anything we needed virtually. Loved it!

    Great Spot and hosts!From a small tidal beach to paddle craft to cross the inlet to an eagle living at the waterfront to a great location, this rental was perfect for our group. The kitchen served our needs perfectly and there was ample space for dining, lounging and sleeping. We were only a short drive to Cavendish and Kensington and were able to make short trips to everywhere we wanted to be. We wanted for nothing and our hosts were responsive and friendly. I highly recommend this rental cottage!

    We absolutely loved our stay at Highview Cottage. There was plenty of space for all of us, the property was peaceful and so idyllic. The children loved the dock and the kayaking was an added highlight to our trip. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

    Highview was a perfect spot for our family. Close to many beaches and attractions. The house was very well kept had just the right things to make our stay comfortable. We were able to take a kayak ride and see the eagle on our last day. Would highly recommend.

    Had a lovely relaxing fall stay at the cottage. Great view of the water in a cozy rustic setting. You're never very far from anything in PEI but we were still in a great secluded location. Great weekend.

    The home was perfect. Located right on the water lovely views from the deck. Looks like a lot of fun to be had with the water in summertime. Autumn chill was with us and we loved that, plenty of throw blankets to cover up and sit outside. All the amenities you need were there. Thanks to our hosts for sharing their home. You won’t be disappointed if you stay here!

    We had a great stay at Highview. The main highlight of course was the eagle's nest and many eagle sightings. The only real negative factor was the prominent musty smell which permeated the whole cottage, but especially downstairs in the bedroom areas. Otherwise, a great location, very nice setting, comfortable seating and beds and well stocked kitchen. Lovely deck perfect for sitting out wine-sipping and bird-viewing!

    Spent two nights here and it was amazing! The cottage has plenty of room. The beds are comfortable. There is no air conditioning but the breeze off the water was perfect! I would definitely book here again! My only suggestion for improvement would be to add hand rails for the upper section of the stairs inside and also for the stairs outside but overall….great spot for a little getaway!

    This cottage was absolutely perfect for our multigenerational getaway. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer! Everyone had amazing sleeps in the well appointed beds with a fresh breeze coming off the water. We loved how close we were to everything but far enough to feel we were truly getting away from it all. The cottage had everything we needed and more. We hope to return soon!

    Lovely open concept upper floor. Beautiful view and very quite area. We were not at the cottage most of the time, but nice place to relax. We were a bit disappointed because we couldn’t swim off the dock due to huge amount of algae, but not a big deal.

    Great cottage and location. Well supplied with everything you need as well as lots of fun games, books, kayaks and a paddle board. We had age ranges from 4-72 and everyone enjoyed it. My only recommendation is to have a dehumidifier running in the basement to hopefully remove the musty smell. Love the open concept upstairs space and having one room with a king size bed is definitely a plus!

    Our Highview experience exceeded our expectations. Everything our family could ask for. Loved kayaking and the paddle board. Lots of room for the 6 of us. Totally enjoyed the board games on our one rainy day. The location is ideally close to Kensington and Cavendish, yet completely private. Only hiccup was the road to the cabin after it rained. Highly recommend.
