The purple finch represents the important attributes of joy, appreciation, positivity and optimism, and this is evident in our luxury condo. We want those attributes to be felt throughout your stay. This is a luxurious 3 bedroom condo, with 3 bathrooms (two ensuites). Each bedroom has a flat screen television. You are literally steps from the private beach. Enjoy a glass of cold wine or a hot coffee on your large patio, while enjoying the most beautiful sunsets in the world
Although, Long Point is known for it's gorgeous beaches; the Purple Finch Condo is perfect all year. This condo is located in The Long Point Beach Club. It is warm and cozy and feels like home. Enjoy the roominess of our corner unit condo, with 3 bedrooms and a pullout couch in the comfortable living room. Good news for allergy sufferers there is NO carpet in the unit.
It includes a chef's kitchen, and space to eat and work from home, while feeling like you are on vacation. Enjoy the barbeque on the beautiful roof top deck or back patio, while staying warm by the fire pit.
For boaters, the marina is just steps away with access from a gate for guests.
A spacious patio is connected to 2 of the bedrooms and the living room with private views of the lake and sunsets, so you can enjoy the outside, even when cuddled up in the warm bed or on the comfy couch by the fireplace.
We have a WASHER and DRYER in the condo for your convenience.
High speed WiFi and satellite T.V. are included, so this is the perfect place to "work from home". We have Netflix and Amazon Prime so you can binge your favourite show, when you do not want to enjoy the outdoors. We also have a PS4 and a selection of games for those rainy days.
Although you have a private beach with the warmer Lake Erie waters, if you want to access the public beach, it is less than a kilometre away and Long Point Provincial Park is a quick drive away.
Your visit includes a pass to the Long Point Provincial Park (from May - November), so you can make the Purple Finch your launching pad, while you enjoy days at the Park.
This is paradise for bird watchers as the Long Point Bird Observatory is just minutes away. The stately swans are waiting to model for you, and if you are lucky, you may have a sighting of our name sake, the Purple Finch. There have even been recent sightings of pelicans.
This is the area where people who love fishing will catch the "big one"! The fish are waiting for you.
Enjoy the local wineries, shops and restaurants of Port Rowan, and finish it off with some delicious ice cream from one of our local shops.
For the adventure seekers, there are Long Point Eco Adventures, kayaking, boat trips, cross country skiing and even winter bike riding.

For the golfer in the family, the golf course is less than 10 minutes away.
Cleanliness is of the utmost importance to us, we follow a five-step enhanced cleaning process, which was developed in partnership with experts.
We want you to feel like you are at home with everything you need. If we missed something, please let us know.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE: As this is our "home away from home", we may ask for some details about your group's plans to ensure that this is a good fit for you, us and our neighbours.
This is not a serviced building, so we do not have staff onsite. So, please ensure that you clean up after using the BBQs, beach and patios.
Smoking of any kind is prohibited by our guests within 10 feet of any windows or doors. Despite this, this is not a non-smoking property, so you may smell smoke in the common areas.
The water is filtered and safe to drink, however, it sometimes has iron in it, which can cause a slight taste. It may be slightly discoloured, which can be seen in the toilet sometimes. Please also be aware that if you use the washing machine, the water can sometimes leave a rust colour on whites, due to the iron in the water.
Lake Erie can be unpredictable, so please exercise caution when entering and swimming in the lake, as the waves can bring in sticks, rocks and debris. At our beach, it is rocky entering the water, but about 8 feet out, it has a sandy bottom. Long Point Provincial Park has a sandy entry.
Although, we would love to host pets, our family has severe allergies, therefore pets are not allowed. If a guest brings in a pet, they will be asked to leave without a refund and will be charged an additional cleaning fee.
Please note that lost keys and park passes will result in a charge of $40.00 and $100.00 respectively. Please ensure that they are returned upon checkout.
If you have questions about the area or any local businesses, please feel free to ask. This is a wonderful area and we love to boast about what is nearby.
