Not at all the experience I had last year. This year, there were bugs in the room (gnats, earwigs, spiders, other beetles). The sheets were stained on one side. The floor and bed moved when other guests walked around outside. The bed itself was noticeably old, with one end being a crater while the other end firm. Walls were so thin you could hear people doing the nasty and folks were smoking outside my door. The pool wasn't open a single day I was there despite the weather being more than good for swimming (multiple 25+ days). Won't be staying here again.

Our cabin was in poor condition. There was terrible lightning and very cold. We could not get heat from the electric units. Contacted the front desk guests services twice with questions and looking for help. Left voice mail and neither time recieved a response.

Location was perfect. Very quiet and beautiful property. The PEI Welcome center is right across the street. The National Park beaches and Dune land is 5 minutes down the road. We rented an E Bike from Cavendish for the whole day. The trails we're endless, off road safe and right by the beach. We found our new home 🏡

Great location. Good value for off season September . Great location . Close to city beaches and historical sites. Outstanding scenery. Cottage was compact but very clean and well supplied. Pool very clean. Still able to use 1st week of september. Very roomy grounds. Barbecue and garden chairs nice touch. Only negative was very low water pressure in kitchen. Also tiny soaps in bathroom.
