We used the kayaks and walked the nearby trail. So many birds to watch. Swans, egrets, turns, geese, etc etc. Great place to stay. They even gave us a gift basket that included a bottle of Sandbanks wine.

Working and fishing on the bay
My wife and I wanted a place on the water that was close to the GTA (less than 2 hours) and offered good wi-fi. Sun Chaser Bay easily checked all the boxes and then some. It was very clean, spacious and very comfortable for the two of us and it could easily handle more guests. The kitchen was fully equipped for cooking meals (if inclined) and the grounds are quite large and very private, camp fires on the waters edge each night were as amazing as the sunrise, sunset and even a harvest moon. Due to the excellent weather (hot +25C, sunny, windless) fishing was somewhat challenging but we caught numerous bass. Launching our fishing kayaks from the property was easy. Our host, Kim was a very thoughtful person and truly cared about her guests. She made a brief introductory appearance and left us to our privacy. Highly recommend Sun Chaser Bay.........cheers Harold and Liz

Comfy with a beautiful view
Well equiped clean and spacious private apartment. Beautiful view of the bay. Kim has provided everything you would ever need or want and sent a wonderful detailed overview just prior to arrival. The wine route is short scenic drive away with so many to choose from. We had dinner and brunch in nearby Wellington about 30 minutes away. Super pleasant stay that I would highly recommend.

Charming little get away
Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay at this cottage. The place was conveniently located just outside of town and 15 minutes from North Beach. Kim was super friendly and accommodating and the apartment was in good shape. The one thing we were disappointed about is that swimming off the dock was not possible due to the shallow water and thick lily pads all around. The kayaks were fun though and the games were great on our rainy day. Overall I would recommend it as a great place to stay in the area.

Fall Getaway
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property during our fall getaway to Prince Edward County. The host went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable while maintaining privacy. The location was perfect - close to amenities in Trenton and a good distance from the places we sought out to visit in Prince Edward County. The location had a great view inside and from the patio of the lake including its inhabitants, the swans and waterfowl.

Short, lovely weekend getaway!
Although it was a short weekend away from our busy life , the quiet, private, clean and relaxing stay at Kim’s property felt like a whole vacation getaway! You could see how much of an animal lover this family is, they welcome pets and they even got a basket full of treats for everybody! I would definitely recommend this property to our friends!

We enjoyed the setting, view, proximity to walking trails and to Prince Edward County's attractions. We only wished we could have had a few more days to fit in paddling, a bonfire and more beachcombing nearby. We were comfy and had enough room! Thank you to Kim and family for their hospitality

Great base for visiting Prince Edward County
My partner and I just stayed at Kim's place. Great base for exploring everything PEC has to offer. Apartment is well kitted and clean. Appreciated having the use of the bbq for grilling our meals and the dock is handy for launching the OC. Brought our portable telescope and had a great view of the stars and planets. Definitely recommend and would stay again when visiting Prince Edward County.
