Westville Vista; Détendez-vous, Connect & Enjoy - Ville, Pays, Beach - Votre choix!

My name is Lisa MacEwen and this land has been in my family for over 200 years. I grew up down the road and this property was the site of a Homestead, built in 1805, by my Great Great Grandparents and later lived in by my Great Aunt Elizabeth MacEwen.
I live in Toronto with my 2 children. I built this home in 2012 to enjoy a little peace of heaven for ourselves each year for several weeks in the summer.
This is a special place with some of the oldest Chestnut and Linden trees in PEI, dating back to 1914, (which my Great Uncle brought back from California, to plant, before he headed of the WW1, where he was MIA and never came home. His memorial is at Vimy Ridge; France).
After unsuccessful attempts to save the old Homestead, I decided to demolish it and built a brand new modern, modest but spacious and cozy home. I was able to save some pieces from the old Homestead that were incorporated in the decor and construction to give this new place some traditional character. Although I own other waterfront land on the Westriver, I chose to build here, as this land has a special, tranquil and peaceful energy to it, with a view! Every time I come home here, I don't want to leave!

The water on the South Shore is warmer and safer than the tourist popular Northshore. Canoe Cove, 5 minutes away, is one of the most popular south shore beaches known for its safe water, tide pools and red cliffs. You can also have you own private access to the West River in front of the property where you can explore by digging clams, oysters and mussels. The property also has hammocks, 7 adirondack chairs around a fire pit, volleyball/badminton nets, tire swings, swing, horseshoe set.
Please note that 'Fiona' hurricane of 2022 did extensive tree damage to my property. While it is still very beautiful, I did lose three of my majestic trees and dozens of evergreens along the laneway.

Please understand when booking this property that it is rural, surrounded by farm land and on the westriver and the inlet. PEI is known for mosquitos, especially rural properties. I spray for mosquitos 4 x a season. It definitely helps but does not get rid of them. I am always surprised when this is mentioned in reviews as it is clearly mentioned in the property information that is sent out and in the description. I also cannot control if wasps decide to make a home in one of my trees - just saying! These things are managed as best I can within reason to respecting nature.

NOTE: I have travelled extensively and have stayed in Airbnb's in over 10 countries. I never fuss or complain if they don't leave me paper towel. I am satisfied with one roll of toilet paper and one extra. I have also never been set up with coffee or any spices, which includes salt and pepper. I expect to go to a supermarket on the day I arrive to buy my basic supplies, which includes extra toilet paper and paper towel.
I provide more amenities at my properties than I have ever experienced at any Airbnb that I have stayed in. This includes dish and laundry soap, ample supply os dish cloths and towels, spices and many countertop kitchen appliances. So, as a Friendly Reminder; You have not booked a hotel stay where you have daily cleaning service and unlimited supply of paper products. I start my guests with one roll of toilet paper plus three extra double rolls, (equivalant to 8 single rolls). If this does not suffice, please do not publicly complain. I do not charge hotel prices therefore please understand the difference. A hotel would not provide you with private outdoor seating, hammocks, bbq and a firepit with seating, on a secluded private oasis that is not shared with anyone else. I am happy to provide unlimited paper products and coffee and even firewood and charge an additional $200.00. for this service. Does this make sense? Thank you for understanding the difference.
