Roses on the Water Beach House has all you need to be your sanctuary. Experience this Prince Edward Island haven in all its wonder. While many modern amenities have been added to this original farm house with a complete home renovation in 2014, the charm of this century farm property has not been lost. It has all you need to be your home away from home.
With direct access to a secluded sandy beach just a short 5 minute stroll away, you will go from morning coffee to morning dip in minutes. You will enjoy your breakfast overlooking the beautifully picturesque North Lake sunrise and head down to the North Lake Harbour to bring home some fresh fish or lobster to throw on the BBQ for lunch or dinner. We also have a local fish truck that stops by weekly and a country grocery and variety store just up the road. End your day with a cozy campfire eating s'mores while watching the stunning sunset or star gazing.
Roses on the Water Beach House is the perfect place for the avid bird watcher, as we have eagles, whooping cranes, blue herons, and endangered piping plovers all making North Lake their summer home. If jogging, walking, or biking is more your pleasure, we are only 3 minutes from the Confederation Trail, which starts at the Elmira Train Station and runs from one tip of this beautiful Island to the other, passing through many picturesque villages on its way.

Anglers come from all corners of the world to try tuna fishing in the Tuna Capital of the World.
