Stylish Shipping Container Retreat with Barn Lounge near Picton, Prince Edward County
Escape to 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 fire pit 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 space—a great place to unwind rain or shine.
Whether you're planning a group getaway, a family retreat, or a romantic escape, the home 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, fire pit, 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 that 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, 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.
Please note that this property is not suitable for children. The layout includes features that may pose safety concerns for young guests, and its close proximity to natural elements like uneven terrain and wildlife adds additional risks. Additionally, the stock tank pool is not fenced or gated, which may present a hazard for unsupervised children. We recommend this space for adults only to ensure everyone's safety and enjoyment.
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 1 suite is designated as pet-friendly. If you plan to bring your dog, you must book a pet-friendly suite to ensure that the other suites 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 be 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 property a comfortable and enjoyable place for all our guests—both two- and four-legged.
