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.
Additional amenities include hair dryers in each full bathroom, floor fans in each room, high chair and Pack N Play for babies, and beach chairs and beach towels. All at your disposal to ensure your stay is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by The Rustic Retreat

Why they chose this property
The Rustic Retreat is located in Central PEI in the heart of picturesque and historical New Glasgow, which is a great tourist destination and Home of the world famous New Glasgow Lobster Suppers, The Mill Restaurant, The PEI Preserve Company , The Toy Factory, plus the renowned Glasgow Hill Golf Course. All are just a stone-throw away from the house.
What makes this property unique
The house sits on the site of the original forge for all of central Prince Edward Island. The "Forge on Buck Hill" (the barn on the property) is over 100 years old and is remembered fondly by many of the elder residents of New Glasgow as the social and business gathering site for the community. The forge supplied most of the metal products required by the butter factory (PEI Preserve Company) as well as the carriage shop (The Toy Factory). It was also renowned Island wide for the sleighs that were built on the second floor. One of the more charming parts of the property is the weekly delivery of eggs and produce by a local farmer. The story goes like: "Eldon arrives on Saturdays, sells us fresh produce and eggs from his farm, and has regaled us with stories about the property, as he was good friends with the Bucks". There is a photograph of the forge owner hanging in one of the wings of the QEH (Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Charlottetown).
