This was probably one of the best VBRO properties my family has visited. The views were amazing, the neighbors outstanding, and the owners were accommodating.

There were a few areas that I would improve upon, such as more supplies available upon arrival (condiments, much needed bug spray, and/or a book with printed instructions on how to use appliances, where to find things, where to put the trash, etc.), more quilts/blankets (it was much chillier than I expected in July!), and seating in the main living area. As it was, there was a well-used click-clack couch, a couple of cushioned desk-like chairs, and one wooden kitchen chair to sit on other than the dining furniture. Updates here would be well worth it as you sit to look out the sliding glass doors at the beautiful ocean view. With that said, it was clear that updates had been done in the kitchen, and the dining set was very comfortable. Not only that, the owners kindly provided us with a pack-n-play and highchair for our little one. As long at the weather is nice, you probably won't spend much time inside, anyway!

The cottage is located on a more rural part of PEI, and the nearest town is about a 10 minute drive. Please keep in mind that things shut down early in small towns. We did not plan accordingly, arriving on a Sunday evening after the grocery store had closed. Also, if you want to do much sight seeing, expect to drive. There is a Potato Museum in the town 10 minutes away, and you can have access to the Confederation Trail there, as well. The Anne of Green Gables attractions are about 1 hr 45 min away, and Charlottetown is about the same distance. However, the drives are lovely. You either drive through gorgeously green farmland or along coastal highways. I don't remember one boring drive. Also, there are several lighthouses to visit relatively nearby (within 30 minutes), and I did find some boating expeditions you could take part in.

Overall, this was a low-key, relaxing vacation. I would take this over theme-parks or crowded beaches every time. Thank so much for the lovely opportunity to rent this property!
