Located in Central PEI in the heart of picturesque New Glasgow, The Rustic Retreat is One of A Kind Vacation Home. It has many reclaimed features all creatively combining the history of the area, with contemporary style and modern conveniences. Historical New Glasgow is a great tourist destination - HOME of the World Famous Lobster Suppers, The Mill Restaurant, The Toy Factory, and the PEI Preserve Company. All a stone-throw away from this home.

Upon entering The Rustic Retreat, you will be instantly captivated by the reclaimed wood structures adorning the walls and ceiling that creates a warm and inviting ambiance. The large open concept living room is filled with amazing characters throughout. You just cannot help admiring the 25 feet stone hearth made of island stones with a wooden mantle hand crafted by a talented local artisan; the large windows bringing in breath-taking sunrise at dawn and delightful sunshine during the day; and the wooden stove adding extra coziness and warmth to nice conversations around the sitting area.

The modern kitchen is fully equipped with high quality amenities. You can enjoy cooking here just like at home. The dining area, perfect for family gatherings, features an impressive oak table seating up to 12 guests, and is adorned with unique, locally-sourced tree trunk stools, adding a rustic touch.

The centerpiece of the living room is the stunning wooden spiral staircase with custom iron railings. Adjacent to the living room is a solarium, a perfect space to curl up with a book or to enjoy some peace and quiet while watching TV.

Retire to three bedrooms on the main floor, you will find:

The Mater Bedroom with a king bed and an ensuite bathroom;

The cozy North Shore Bedroom with a queen bed; and

The Cabin Bedroom, a one-of-a-kind charming space, boasting a cozy upper loft and two queen beds. The handcrafted tree branch railing adds a rustic touch and make for a memorable stay.

The Main Bathroom has a tub/shower combo and is equipped with brand new washer and dryer for added convenience and comfort during your stay.

Ascend the beautiful spiral staircase, you will find the 4th bedroom - the Loft Bedroom with a cozy and rustic chic. The spacious Loft Bedroom features a comfortable king bed, a TV on a stand handcrafted from a single wood plank, adding a charming touch. A half bathroom is also included in this private space for added convenience. The overall atmosphere here is cozy and warm, with a harmonious blend of rustic and modern design elements.

Experience the great outdoors with a variety of games and activities, a fire pit to enjoy a fun marshmallow night with kids, adirondack chairs to relax under the large oak tree in the front yard. Or, lounge on the deck to take in the breathtaking countryside views while enjoying a glass of wine with loved ones under the magical sunset.

Great Stay on PEI

This property is beautiful. In a great location, centrally located a 30 minute drive from Charlottetown. A short 5 minute walk to New Glasgow Lobster Suppers. The 4 comfortable separate bedrooms was perfect for our large family. We had 8 adults and had plenty of room to mingle as well as space for quiet time. Loved the large well equipped kitchen and big table that comfortably fit 8 adults for meals and card games. Nice sun deck and large yard all got good use. The added folding lawn chairs and all the extra beach towels was a real bonus for our beach days. Close by beaches were great. Actually the pictures really don’t do justice for this place. It is a very spacious and unique house. No complaints really. If I was to offer some feedback it would be that the fire pit outside is not very inviting could use some TLC to make it a more comfortable space. However did appreciate the firewood. Overall I thought it was great value. Would not hesitate to recommend. You’ll love it!

5 stars for our stay at the rustic retreat

What to say about the rustic retreat? First, the current pictures don’t do it any justice. The ceilings are 20ft high, the living space is big, the kitchen beautiful and *fully* equipped. All bedrooms are a very good size, multiple towels provided per room. Every detail in this space is amazing; from the intricate staircase leading to the loft area, to the dining table pieces, high end washer/dryer. We just loved everything. Sarah has thought of everything; I would think “I wonder if they have….” And I would check in the cupboards or closets and there the item would be. Sarah is a very responsive host, replying within an hour or less. The property manager is also lovely and very welcoming. We enjoyed the rural aspect of the home, how quiet our stay was, but it is also just a very short walk to Preserves, Lobster Suppers etc. Not to mention a short, beautiful drive to North Rustico for all it has to offer. Truly a 5 star home - we will be back! We walked

Truly a retreat

Wonderful ambiance with great vibes. Property manager and owner extremely responsive to questions. The central area has tons of light and is a lovely gathering place for groups. Plenty of table space and the bedrooms are all well equipped and comfortable. There has been a scourge of earwigs across the island, and here too - but again the owner and property manager did everything they could to help.

Surpassed expectations!

As a culinary team Capitan, I wanted a place where I could bring the team to get away from the hustle - where we could bond, rest and enjoy our time together. This place surpassed my expectations! It was so beautiful inside; the beds were heavenly, huge, beautiful yard, fresh, clean space with good energy. Thank you for a great stay!
