    Spacious house located close to Sandbanks Provincial Park and other sites

    The house was clean and well-stocked, able to house multiple children downstairs with lots of comfortable rooms for the adults upstairs. Simon was a communicative host and took care of any small issues that popped up. Location-wise, only a short drive to the beautiful Sandbanks beaches and Bloomfield/Wellington/Picton. Only downside is that you cannot swim on the property, but that was clear from the beginning. It is close enough to Sandbanks that you can return for an evening swim if desired! Overall - a lovely vacation for the whole family.

    Wonderful property with lots of amenities. We were a 5 minute drive from Sandbanks. Had fun with the ping pong table and various board games. It was eclipse time and Simon generously allowed an early check in and late check out. So appreciated!

    Well located near Sandbanks! We appreciate the day passes for Ontario parks. Simon was very reactive to my questions/requests. It just miss some bath and beach towels.

    We rent the place for one week of vacation with family and friends. The house is closed to Sandbanks beach, which is good. The view on West lake is awesome, we can also see Ontario lake away. We had brought our fishing boat and we were able to easily park it in their parking, while enjoying the few public boat launchs in the area (the closest for West lake being 5-10 minutes away). We did some paddle board directly from the house, but there is a lot of vegetation in this area, so it was a bit harder for the kids. The rooms are located in area of the house where people who wants to sleep do not get bother by the ones who prefer to do something else. The owner was very receptive and responsive when needed (we did not have much to request for, we had pretty much all we needed already provided). We enjoyed our stay at Bright Sky!

    Simon's place is excellent for a family (we were 6 adults and 4 kids and a dog), with a super layout with bedrooms separated from living areas, and a lower level for the kids. Easy access to Sandbanks (10 min) made it perfect to spend time during the day and sunsets, and close to Wellington/Picton. We will be back!

    Our stay was absolutely perfect! The house is beautiful and well equipped. The way the rooms are separated is excellent for everyone having enough space and privacy. The day bed in the basement can open into a queen bed. There is an extra bed under the bunk beds and enough space in that room. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook excellent meals. The location is great and 8 minutes from the beach by car. We appreciated the 2 vehicle parking pass for the beach. The property is well maintained and the landscape is super beautiful. We had fun with the kayaks and did a fire every night at the fire pit. One night, a Neigbour accross the lakes did fireworks! It was magical.

    Bright Sky on Sherba Island provided perfect location for cycling various loops on PEC, including close acess to Millennium trail, various restaurants, and savoring a unset on Sandbanks beach.

    We have an amazing stay at the cottage. Beautiful location and the cottage is well appointed and very nicely furnished. And the kids love the ping pong table. This is our 3rd time staying here and it has always been great! Thanks for a perfect long weekend!
