Situated literally over the ocean our cozy 1-bedroom Prawn Palace cottage shares a large semi-private deck (with our Oyster Shack cottage).
Nestled at the end of our property, the cottage is filled with natural light that streams through its large picture windows, providing an expansive view toward the entrance to Pender Harbour. You’ll really enjoy the deck, relaxing in the Adirondack chairs provided. It’s a remarkable location from which to view all that happens in an oceanfront location. Most days end with stunning sunsets.
