Beautiful escape from the city
The Sunshine Cottage is a little piece of heaven on the lake. We were looking for a place to stay while our house was getting renovated and we were so lucky to have found this cottage. Communication with the hosts was flawless and prompt. They made sure we had everything we needed and that we enjoyed our stay. We highly recommend Sunshine Cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat.

Great weekend getaway
We needed somewhere to stay in the Napanee area so we thought we’d try Vrbo. Luckily we stumbled on this waterfront property on Hay Bay. The cottage is meticulously looked after , so clean and packed full of thoughtful amenities. Shadow was prompt in responding from the time I booked, to the time I checked out. The numerous positive reviews were one of the things that drew us to this property….and they are all 100% correct. Highly recommend !

Nice quiet lakeview property
Everything met our expectations. It is a lovely space for a family retreat. The sleeping accommodations are spacious and very comfortable. TV and games provided were good and the fire pit, lake and outdoor chairs is very nice. Given the late season we did not access the water craft. Some minor issues in the kitchen included a grill pan in the oven not clean, and a broken cork screw. I would go there again and hope to sometime soon.

Perfect getaway
We really enjoyed our stay at the sunshine cottage.As we entered the home we all noticed the fresh clean smell, it was very inviting. Little snacks and refreshments awaited on the living room coffee table. Perfect ! The kitchen was well stocked with coffee, creamer and other little thoughtful necessities. The rooms were spacious and clean. The beds were comfortable and our son really loved his private upstairs loft to escape all the snoring adults. We were provided with clean towels and a large array of bath and shower products. The cottage also has air conditioning for those warm summer nights. If you want to relax with a beautiful view and enjoy a good barbecue and a warm night by the fire pit. I recommend sunshine cottage.
