Everything we needed and more in terms of kitchen utensils and appliances along with space. Cottage was clean and tidy. Property is a bit outdated (playground needs some repairs), but the stay was pleasant. Would stay here again.
We absolutely loved our stay here—it was so peaceful and quiet. The cabin itself was stunning, spacious, and in such a perfect location for walking to so many different spots in Cavendish.
The only downside was that housekeeping seemed non-existent during our three-night stay. We ran out of basics like toilet paper and soap and had to go to the front desk to restock. For a short trip it wasn’t a huge deal, but it did feel a little off.
That said, this was such a small inconvenience compared to everything else. The property’s beauty, the tranquility, and the comfort of the cabin far outweighed it. We would definitely stay again!

Our cottage was suitable for what we were looking for in PEI. It was very close to everything in Cavendish. The cottages are old and outdated but very clean. We stayed during the heat wave and the AC unit struggled to keep our space cool which did make for a tough time to sleep at night after being in the heat all day. A better AC or additional fans to help circulate the air would have been nice. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay and would return to this location on future visits to the island.
Great cottage for a few days getaway. We loved having a fridge, stove and coffee maker. It was clean and towels and toilet paper delivered every day. There was an air conditioner for the lower level but it was much too hot upstairs. Only one of the three of us could sleep upstairs. I would highly recommend putting a heat pump upstairs. The heat wave didn’t help either. Otherwise, great stay.
Was a perfect spot for a family vacation. Cottages were very comfortable. Their location was ideal for us. Close to all parks and restaurants and convenience shops. Staff were friendly and helpful.
L endroit etait proche de tout nos activités s était tranquille les plancher était pas au niveau j'ai pas aimer le felling de marcher dans le chalet ..a part s etait un peu vieux mais propre...le service est bon
Merci
There are many updates and such needed for this area to be safe. The porches are falling off the cabins, there are raised and broken cement around pool which is a hazard, and the playgrounds are unsafe and falling apart. for a "Family-Friendly" facility, it is very much lacking in the safety aspects to ensure children are safe playing there.
Pictures also do NOT Match the rooms booked. Update needed to ensure customers know what they are purchasing!!!! My cabin was MUCH smaller and a lot less amenities and features then I thought I booked as per pictures and description on the site!! VERY MISLEADING!!!!
