The cottage is very small but very efficient, has everything for a few-day comfortable stay. We arrived on a very cold day and were lucky to see the attendant outside who promptly delivered an additional heater that turned an ice castle into a toasty hut. Thank you caretakers!

Cutest little cottage

Had a blissful stay at Prince of Whales cottages. We stayed in a cottage with a queen bed and it was the perfect space for two people. Plenty of under bed storage to stow extra luggage out of the way and a cute little kitchenette ready to be used. The bathroom was a little tight but it did the job. We stayed in cottage 1 and the stand up shower knob is backwards (hot is cold, and cold is hot) took a bit to figure out why the water wasn't getting hot but once we figured it out it was good to go. Would 1000% stay again, especially during the off season. Very peaceful and had a beautiful view of the starry sky.

When there was an apparent issue with my payment - I contacted the property 3 times by phone & emailed twice. I finally heard back with a resolution FOUR hours before my stay. I live 6 hours away - I was already driving down without knowing if I even had a place to stay. They’re nearly impossible to get a hold of. It’s essentially a glorified shed that was turned into a tiny home. I’ve stayed here twice now & unfortunately will not be again. I’ve rented an entire house for my next stay for the same price as this cottage. It’s unfortunate because staying here was becoming a little tradition. I also found a cockroach in the bathroom on my last day, emailed the company & never heard anything back. While I understand outside bugs can come in - would’ve been nice to hear back. Ultimately it’s the lack of communication that has pushed me in a different direction for the future over anything else.

What we liked - The cottage was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchenette was well equipped. The private outdoor deck was beautiful. There is a restaurant that serves dinner on site, where the food and service were very good. What we didn't like - The bathroom (in the studio unit) was a bit small. We're not sure why they slopped the ceiling downward in there. But the biggest issue was with the contactless service. It was a challenge. We did not receive our check-in information by our check-in date. I called the cottages and was told we would get a call back by noon. we did not. I called again at 2 pm (by the way check-in time is at 4 pm). I was told my credit card for the second payment did not go through (not sure why, as it has a substantial credit line). Now wouldn't you think they would have reached out to us on their own when they had trouble with the payment, I guess they didn't think so. Anyway, they tried again and lo and behold the payment went through and we received our check-in information. Even though we had our issues with check-in I would still recommend the Price of Whales cottages.

The cottage was exactly as advertised. It was spotless! It could use some hooks or a place to hang clothes. A clock. And a teapot. The grounds could use the same level of detail as the cottages have received. I loved it and will return for sure!!

Pros: very clean, private, beautiful deck, grill, check-in was easy, beautiful cottage. Cons: no iron. Impossible to get in touch with someone with the number they provided. Thankfully, two of their workers were walking by and they were able to assist me. Overall, I enjoyed my stay! I Would definitely book a stay again.

I loved the individual cottages and especially the dedicated seating areas for each one. I really enjoyed having the dog area for my dog and made the stay with her so simple. They provided beach chairs which was a great touch!
