The Sand Castle is located on PEI’s scenic north shore at Thunder Cove beach, considered by many locals as one of the best beaches on PEI. This spacious and modern cottage was built in 2018 and is the perfect spot to unwind and take in the sea breeze, play in the sand or use as a base to explore all that PEI has to offer.

The cottage sleeps 6 comfortably in the 3 spacious bedrooms, each with a queen bed. Two of the bedrooms have patio door access to the front deck. You will find2 bathrooms, one with a modern soaker tub with a view to the sea. Lots of linens and beach towels provided. The fully equipped kitchen will leave you wanting for nothing, including herb/ spices and a lobster pot ready for your own ‘surf and turf’. Get your fresh seafood at the local fish house, just a 5 minute drive up the road! The open living space, with a vaulted ceiling, has bright windows to take in the breathtaking view. Walk through the patio doors onto a 50’ deck, with an unobstructed view of the sea, to sit and relax with a cold beverage, play a game, read a book, or dine al fresco. Grab your flip flops and head to the beach, just a few steps away on a well traveled path down the sandstone cliff. Explore the ever-changing caves, unique sea stacks, dunes or walk the beach for as far as you can see. Take in the cotton candy sunsets and gaze at the Milky Way at night.

Only 12 minutes away is Malpeque Bay which is world famous for their amazing oysters. Cabot Beach Provincial Park is a 14 min. Drive or head East along the Green Gable shore to find Cavendish Beach National Park (30 min. drive) or Charlottetown (60 min. drive). You will find many beaches, golf courses, restaurants, entertainment and shopping nearby.

    This was our second year in Sand Castle and it met all our expectations! Open concept and spacious deck and a well appointed kitchen. Loved the Adirondack chairs to spend our time looking over the ocean and watching the birds, bunnies, chipmunks, dragonflies! Simply a quick walk to the bluff stairs to the beach. Beautiful sunsets and sunrises, golfing and biking! Enjoyed many lunches out exploring Summerside, Rustico, Brackley and Charlottetown. Delicious oysters, mussels and lobster a plenty. As well as picture perfect field and waterfront scenes. Especially the bright yellow Canola plant which was growing in abundance. Last night we had a perfect Rainbow!

    We enjoyed our week stay in PEI at this large well appointed home on the cliffs of Thunder Cove. Arrived to a clean and organized home. Including everything you would need for the beach and meal prep. It was very hot and humid so the ceiling fans and extra fan were helpful. Newly built steps to beach access very nice. Beds and bedding were comfy. Beautiful mornings on the deck and evening sunsets spectacular. It is a large island and all towns you have to drive to We explored with our Bronco most of the island. GPS did keep putting us on unpaved roads so be cautious because you can get everywhere on the main paved roads. Biked on Confederation Trail in North Rustico along the shoreline and Kensington inland. Golfed and dined out several times. Recommend Richard’s in Victoria just after crossing the bridge into PEI absolutely the best Lobster Roll!! Many wonderful spots in small fishing marinas to explore and dine. Recommend the Dunes Studio Gallery where we had lunch and walked the lovely gardens and viewed wonderful local artist works. Thanks for the memories!

    The house is beautifully situated on the ocean with easy access to the beach. We loved the floor plan and the location in a quiet part of PEI. The layout of the house is great including the easy access to the deck. The furniture is first rate. The beds are comfortable if a bit small. For such a luxury property, we do have a few suggestions. The kitchen needs more Serving spoons, kitchen towels, steak knives, more mixing bowls, and a sheet pan. The grill was filthy. We had to clean it to use it. There was no wire brush for cleaning. The third bedroom could use a small chest of drawers so there is enough space to unpack. One of the windows in that bathroom needs repair. But these are minor suggestions to make your magical property even better.
