The upper level features an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area with vaulted ceilings, an electric fireplace, and a primary bedroom with queen bed, ensuite, and private deck. Downstairs includes a second living room, two bedrooms (one with a queen, one with two single-over-double bunk beds), a full bathroom, and laundry.

Just a short walk to the beach, Summer Haven comes equipped for a full day of seaside fun. Located 10 minutes from Malpeque Harbour and 20 from Cavendish, you’re perfectly situated to explore local seafood, shops, and attractions.

Peaceful, well-appointed, and close to everything—Summer Haven is your ideal North Shore escape.

Wonderful getaway

We spent thanksgiving weekend at this beautiful location. 3 adults, 3 children under 13, and a golden retriever. The beach is closer than it appears from the photos, and what a great beach for walking. Everything was very clean, and we had everything we needed to make a memorable thanksgiving meal— which was enjoyed with a beautiful view of the ocean, with beautiful sounds of the surf. Highly recommended for a relaxing retreat
