The Acres at High Shore - Shipping Container Suites & Stock Tank Pool | House in Prince Edward
3 Bedroom House in Gilbert Mills, Prince Edward
Escape to The Acres at High Shore – a modern retreat in the heart of Prince Edward County.
Stay in one-of-a-kind guest suites crafted from stylishly refurbished shipping containers, offering a perfect blend of comfort, design, and nature. Wake up to peaceful views of wild meadows, juniper groves, wetlands, and surrounding farmland—an ideal setting for relaxation and reconnection.
The property features three private shipping container suites, each thoughtfully designed with a queen-sized bed, a full ensuite bathroom, and its own private deck space for soaking up the natural surroundings. Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee as birdsong fills the air or winding down under the stars, each container offers an intimate and tranquil experience.
A fourth container serves as a shared kitchenette and dining space, fully stocked with everything you need—from cookware and dishware to a toaster oven and pantry staples. It’s the perfect spot to prepare simple meals before heading out to explore or to enjoy a slow breakfast with friends and family.
Outside, guests can gather around the firepit for evening stories, fire up the BBQ for casual al fresco dinners, or cool off in the refreshing stock tank pool during warm summer days. Lounge chairs and a patio area offer plenty of space to relax, while a beautifully restored barn provides a cozy, private hangout spot complete with games, comfortable seating and a covered patio—a great place to unwind rain or shine.
Whether you're planning a group getaway, a family retreat, or a romantic escape, The Acres at High Shore invites you to disconnect from the everyday and reconnect with what matters most.
Guests have full access to all four shipping containers and the dedicated outdoor areas. This includes three private guest suites and a shared kitchenette and dining container, as well as the stock tank pool, firepit, BBQ area, and lounging spaces designed for relaxation and connection with nature. A section of the beautifully restored barn is also open for guest use as a cozy hangout and game area.
Please note, if you’re interested in reserving the entire barn for a special event at an additional cost, we kindly ask that you submit an inquiry for review and approval.
The property owner resides on-site in the farmhouse, located several meters from the guest area, with her own separate outdoor space—ensuring you have both privacy and peace of mind during your stay.
Bringing a Pet? Here’s What You Need to Know:
We welcome one well-behaved dog per stay—but please note that only dogs are permitted, and there is a strict one-dog limit.
To accommodate guests with allergies, only the East suite is designated as pet-friendly. If you plan to bring your dog, you must book the East suite to ensure that the other suites (South and West) remain allergen-free. Dogs are not permitted in the common areas indoors or inside the other guest suites.
When enjoying the outdoor spaces, we kindly ask that your dog is supervised at all times and that you clean up after them. For your pet’s safety, we also recommend keeping them leashed, especially near wooded areas and tall grass, where ticks are common in this region.
Thank you for helping us keep The Acres at High Shore a comfortable and enjoyable place for all our guests—both two- and four-legged.
