This romantic hideaway in Prince Edward County is perfect for two

Layered sheer fabrics draped over a four-posted bed. Sunsets on a private beach. A screened-in porch with a daybed perfect for two. Can you think of a more romantic atmosphere? This stilted house in Prince Edward County has all of the above–plus a dozen vineyards within driving distance.

Located in Waupoos, a small community in the County, the beachside cottage is propped up on slender wooden posts, which make it look like a mix between a classic tree house and Florida’s iconic stilt houses. The cottage consists of just one room with a canopied, queen-size bed and a discreet (yet fully stocked!) kitchen. Off the bedroom is a large screened-in porch with a day bed and a small area for al fresco dining. If you’re craving more space, fear not. Head out to the beach where there’s a firepit ready for s’mores.
