Great for families. Peaceful, serene, beautiful sunsets and space for everyone
Our family of 4 has taken two vacations to Casa Playa in Tyne Valley over the last 2 years, we absolutely love it there. The 4 bedroom, 2 bath house sits on a large property overlooking the Egmont Bay. Because the property faces South-West you get these absolutely stunning sunsets; the water reaches right to the horizon meaning the sun touches the water in the late summer. The house itself is fully stocked with everything you would need. Towels, extra sheets and blankets. Our kids love the big shower and Jacuzzi tub upstairs. The property itself is the last house at the end of a private road. There is an automatic gate that opens up when you punch in the code, and then you drive along a long winding driveway through a grove of sugar maples to get to the house. The driveway is lined with old timey looking lamps that come on automatically and light up the forest at night, which is just beautiful. On a couple of nights we turned off the lights (switch at the side of the house by the hose) and we were able to see the milky way, just gorgeous! The beach at the property is accessible with a set of wooden stairs, and although a bit rocky right in front of the property all you have to do is walk out a few metres to get to the red sandy bay. The bay itself is quite shallow, especially at low tide. We've been able to walk out to our knees for what seemed like a km at low tide. There is all kinds of interesting wildlife on and around the property too. We harvested mussels from the rocky part of the beach and made fresh seafood pasta with a local chardonnay wine sauce one night, so fresh and delicious! The kids also really like the ginormous sandpit on the property for building sandcastles, and the shed has some scooters and bikes that are great for going up and down the long drive way. The kitchen and living room of the property is fully equipped with everything you need, full size fridge, electric range/oven. We love the open concept of it too, there's a flatscreen TV, a gas fireplace and large windows overlooking the bay. BBQ was new and clean, we had no problems grilling up our favourite foods. Closest city to stock up on amenities is Summerside, about 30 minutes away, but it's right off the bridge if you come that way so we always visit the grocery stores and beer/liquor store on our way in. Be sure to stop by the farmer stands on the way to the property too, nothing like fresh PEI blueberries and corn at the end of August.

We stayed at Casa Playa the last week in August and it was the perfect end to our summer! The house & property itself was everything we could have hoped for & more! Breathtaking sunsets, large private beach & property. The house is equipped with everything we could have needed and more (bedding, towels, internet, satellite TV, treadmill, BBQ) . We enjoyed BBQs on the deck, fires daily/nightly making smores with the kids in the awesome fire pit, the kids played in the large sandbox (lots of sand/beach toys) and ocean (make sure to have your water shoes as this is the East Coast, lots of seashells!). They had a blast collecting shells, crabs, beach glass right outside our door. It's off the beaten path but still so close to town should you need to grab groceries, wine, beer or go antiquing! Easy to get to, beautiful views, quiet, house is fully stocked. Can't say enough about this beautiful property. Have been recommending to all our family and friends. We cannot wait to return for many years to come! Thank you again to Dean and the owners. We will be back!
