Prince Edward County, PEC or “The County”, offers many attractions and has something for everyone.  From its historic roots as “Loyalists” to its farming-rich land, Prince Edward County has become renowned for wineries, micro breweries and as a new food mecca.

On summer days, you can find farmers’ markets with local goodies, antique shops, boutique stores, historical sites and more.  The jewel of The County (and what it’s most famous for) is Sandbanks Provincial Park.  With its sandy beaches, dunes and shallow waters, this spectacular park is a short drive or bike ride from East Lake Shores™.  Another local attraction is Lake on the Mountain offering wonderful view of the Bay.  There are many off-season activities for you to enjoy including festivals, local fairs, wine tasting excursions, culinary, art and history.  These activities are perfect to delight in during the off season.  We truly are a full 3 season resort destination.

For more active types, try golf, mini-golf, horseback riding, boating and water sports, and the ever-popular bike rentals.  If you have your own bike, explore the Millennium Trail, a decommissioned railway reserved exclusively for pedestrians, cyclists and horses!

The County offers lots for you to explore!

When you’re done exploring, come home to East Lake Shores™ and unwind after a busy day in The County.  Our cottages are available to rent from May to October.
