This home was a 10/10. The hosts thought of everything... extra towels, beach towels, beach chairs, etc... Their instructions manual was packed with useful information and if i did ask a question, they were quick to respond. We loved their outside front porch area where we had our morning coffee and our son in law loved their hammock! I will be recommending this place. Thank you

Exactly right for the 6 of us. Lovely, quiet neighborhood, about 2 miles from all the downtown restaurants etc, easy access to the bike/walk Confederation Trail. I especially appreciated how easily this house accommodated the 6 of us. Well thought out home, everything you might need ready at hand.

Trip to PEI to attend the Festival of Small Halls
We are a family of 7 adults and 2 children ages 2.5 and 4.5. The number of bedrooms were perfectly adequate for our large group. Every couple (3) had a bed as well as our lone single adult. The children shared a bedroom with two appropriately sized beds without difficulty.
The house was supplied with numerous toys, balls, frisbees, games, and an outdoor play set that kept our grandchildren occupied with ease!
The adult beds were all comfortable and the room sizes were fine. There were two full bathrooms that were great! The cleanliness of the home was outstanding.
The kitchen was super well appointed. There was an espresso machine that worked well and served our needs without a hitch. Huge refrigerator and freezer. Plenty of dishes, bowls, glasses, and cooking utensils. There was a small fridge that was full of various sparkling water that was complimentary. There was complementary coffee provided. In the back of the house was a deck with lounging furniture and a hot tub which we made good use of. Plenty of towels (including beach towels). Washer and dryer provided.
Also, communicating with the host, Stephanie, was a breeze. We used either email or cell phone messaging without a problem. Check-in and check-out was easy.
The location was terrific. We were 6 minutes from the airport and 8 minutes to the historic downtown area. We made numerous day trips during our stay and no day trip was longer than 30 - 40 minutes.
A great place to stay. 5 stars all the way around!
