This retreat isn’t just about the home itself—it’s also about the location. You’ll be just steps from one of PEI's most breathtaking beaches, and minutes from some of PEI’s top golf courses, renowned seafood restaurants, charming local shops, and scenic coastal drives. Wake up early to catch the sunrise over the ocean, and wind down in the evening with unforgettable sunsets that light up the sky.
As a child, the host spent countless summer vacations on the rugged and beautiful East Coast, where salty breezes carried the scent of the ocean and days stretched long under the warm sun. Days were often spent aboard his uncle’s lobster boat, also known as a 'Cape Islander', heading out over calm waters to drop a line for cod. The gentle rocking of the boat, the cry of seabirds overhead, and the thrill of reeling in a fresh catch became treasured moments that shaped his love for the sea.
When it came time to name his own coastal beach house, there was only one choice that felt right — The Cape Islander. This name carries not only the charm of maritime tradition but also a deep personal connection to family, heritage, and the pure joy of those carefree summer days. The house now stands as a place where others can create their own oceanfront memories, much like the ones that inspired it. By honoring a beloved lobster boat from his youth, the host hopes every guest who visits will feel that same spirit of adventure, warmth, and simple seaside happiness that defined his own childhood summers.
Whether you're here for a relaxing getaway, an active beach vacation, or a mix of both, this cottage provides the perfect backdrop. Designed with care and styled for comfort, it’s a place where lifelong summer memories are made.
