The Property

A Private Waterfront Retreat — With Income.

On a quiet stretch of South Bay in Prince Edward County, 86 Colliers Road is a waterfront cottage that offers something increasingly rare: 610 feet of Lake Ontario frontage, 3.5 acres of privacy, and a track record of generating real rental income — quietly, without the noise of management companies or AirBnB's fees eating away at the returns.

The cottage itself is a comfortable bungalow — open concept kitchen, living, and dining flowing together, two generous bedrooms, and a full-length covered deck built for water views and summer evenings. The southern exposure brings light and warmth to the space throughout the day. A detached garage and workspace round out the property.

South Bay is one of Prince Edward County's most beloved stretches — clean, clear, deep water with excellent boating and fishing. The property sits at historic Port Milford, 20 minutes from Picton, and a short drive from Sandbanks Provincial Park, Little Bluff Conservation Area, the wineries, restaurants, and cycling routes the County is known for.

For the buyer who wants a true waterfront foothold in PEC — with the option to use it, rent it, or hold it as an appreciating asset — this is a rare opportunity.

610 feet of waterfront. Active income. Peace and quiet. This is the County at its best.

What's Here

Everything That Makes it Special

610 Feet of Waterfront

One of the most significant stretches of privately-owned South Bay frontage available in PEC. Clean, clear Lake Ontario water directly at your door.

Active Rental Income

$18,862 net revenue in 2025 from just 82 rental nights — self-managed, direct bookings only. A new owner marketing on AirBnB or VRBO has significant room to grow this income substantially.

Full-Length Covered Deck

A generously sized covered deck runs the length of the cottage, facing south over the water. An ideal space for entertaining, relaxing, and taking in the view.

Open Concept Living

The kitchen, dining, and living areas flow together in an open layout designed to bring in light and connect the interior with the views beyond the deck.

Detached Garage & Workspace

A 2-car detached garage with workspace adds practical utility to the property — useful as storage, a project space, or for seasonal equipment.

Privacy & South Exposure

3.5 acres on a quiet road with no immediate neighbours in sight from the water. The south-facing orientation ensures maximum light and warmth across the cottage and deck.

Rental Income

The Numbers Speak for Themselves

2025 Net Rental Revenue

$18,862

82 nights · $240–$270/night · No management fees

These figures reflect a self-managed, direct-booking model with no AirBnB or management fees — the current owners kept it simple and intentional.

82 nights is a floor, not a ceiling. The property previously generated significantly higher gross revenue through AirBnB and a management company when it was marketed more broadly.

A new owner who listed on AirBnB, VRBO, or Booking.com — or engaged a short-term rental management company — would have substantial room to grow this income well beyond what's shown here.

Revenue has been kept intentionally below the $30,000 HST registration threshold. STA licence is currently active and in good standing.
