Welcome to the Dans

Dan & Dan, vacation rental homeowners in Prince Edward County (and Toronto!), sharing our favourite travel tips, must-see spots, & local businesses

If you're looking for a place to stay, we have a handful of locations available. Two 4-bedroom homes right in downtown Picton - a restored century home across from the harbour on Bridge Street, and a stylish art-inspired renovation on Union Street. Plus, as a gorgeous 7-bedroom modernized Farmhouse, out on acres of private land with access to secluded waterfront. And if you're headed the big city

anytime soon, we also have a cozy 2-bedroom home in the Toronto Beaches (hot tub's a fun perk). Visit WelcometotheDans.com for more information.

"A bustling, charming little town that will - when travel is able to resume - expand the county’s already substantial appeal."

‘There’s something quite meditative about sipping a crisp pilsner while watching a flock of sheep graze in the meadow,’ writes Chris Johns about Slake...

Rental homes in Prince Edward County

We’re very lucky to call Picton home, twice.

Located in an idyllic part of the County, the Dans’ have two properties available for rent, right around the corner from one another. Nestled right on the edge of the quaint village of Picton, a four-minute walk from its Main Street. Home to some really great restaurants, fun pubs and a personal favourite, the Picton cinema, open since early last century. Amazingly convenient having all the necessary amenities close by. And a seven minute stroll to Macaulay Mountain Conservation Area, right in Picton's own backyard.

Stylish Picton Century Home This is a charming, 3-bedroom century home that’s been recently renovated and updated with modern design, cool art and beautiful furniture. You’ll have more than enough space for you and your group of friends/family to use as home base during your upcoming visit to PEC.

Historic Picton Harbourfront Home The ideal home base for your retreat to PEC. An authentic country home with a cozy charm, but lovingly restored and renovated with just the right mix of modern touches. Spacious both inside and out, ideal for families and group of friends, looking for somewhere large enough that everyone has a seat at the dinner table. A literal stone's throw from the Picton Harbour, steps from the main strip, and a short jaunt to all of the wonderful wineries, beaches and beauty that the County has to offer.
