The Silver Fox house was charming and the location was perfect for exploring PEI. It was nice to tour the island and then come back to the house for a swim in the pool and dinner under the grape vine “tent”! Our hosts were always available to answer all questions and help if we needed anything. The description of the house and its amenities was very accurate. We would definitely stay again if the opportunity presented itself.

Great location

Great location to do day trips in pei. Lovely grounds, and we used the pool most days after doing some sightseeing. Nice deck area with picnic table covered with a grapevine arbour. Had great seafood dinners outside! Will come back again!Only issue we had is the two downstairs bedrooms were advertised as queen size beds, and they turned out to be only doubles. Was okay for our single daughter, but my older daughter and fiancée were looking forward to a queen size bed.Great stay by the 5 of us.
