The grounds
A lawn made for kids
Between the cottages and the water there is a wooden play fort with slides and swings, a sandbox full of toy trucks, a basketball net, volleyball, badminton and horseshoes. The shore is child-safe, with no rip currents, and campfire wood is available on site for the fire pits.
In every cottage
Two more cottages, and a house in town
Cottages #4 and #5 are on the same lawn; the bungalow is a short walk from downtown Charlottetown.
Centrally located and close to many sites. Cabin was perfect for three adults for the time we spent there. The sunsets were stunning, everyone we met was friendly, and one couple who had been staying there for many years confirmed this was a great place.

Around the cottages
Halfway between the Confederation Bridge and Cavendish, five miles from Summerside. Photos courtesy of Google.
The cottages are five miles from Summerside, where the North Cape Coastal Drive, the Green Gables Shore and the Red Sands Shore intersect. The Confederation Bridge is about 20 km south and Cavendish and Green Gables about 20 km north as the crow flies, so the beaches, lighthouses and towns of every coast are day trips. Groceries, shopping, dining and golf are within five miles.
