We had a wonderful stay at the house. We had the whole house to ourselves. The snoring group slept in the second floor rental and the non snoring group got the downstairs rental. LOL The view of the ocean was beautiful. We had everything that we needed and it was very nice of Erin to reach out and check on us. The ferry to PEI was super convenient. I would absolutely stay here again.

Great layout, lots of options for sleeping arrangements and plenty of separate space for multiple families to stay together but with some privacy. Quiet street, water access was easy to find and the beach was gorgeous. Loved the neighborhood dogs who came to say hi daily.

Perfect

We had a great time at the cottage, everything was in working order and owner was so easy to communicate with. The beds were comfortable, plenty of eating areas, enough "separate" spaces so everyone had their space. The beach was so close and is a great beach with lots of interesting rocks, shells and sea glass. Sandy beach so it was easy to walk on. We are looking forward to staying there again!

Erin, the host, was superb. On her interaction alone, I would return.The cottage is lovely. The grounds are very well kept and useful for teens and a dog to play. The living space is bright and inviting. My teens made out fine with no wifi. They are very outdoorsy and chose volleyball, Frisbee and other outdoor activities.The downstairs bedrooms are small and the one with the twin beds does not have room for luggage. The cupboards are very packed and groceries had to be kept on the table. Other than those inconveniences, it was a great weekend!!

Wow, Just Wow, the views from every window is breathtaking. Very Clean and lots of room on both Levels to enjoy. The kitchen was well equipped for all our needs. The neighbours were all friendly. Plenty of decks to lounge on and to catch all day sun. We had lots of walks on the sandy beaches. It was nice to see the PEI Ferries coming and going. Erin the owner,was fantastic to communicate with. We definitely will book again.Randy J. Prince Edward Island

A place of relaxation

Everything that we wanted was at this house. It truly was a home away from home! We did have to travel a bit to get to everything (shopping, sightseeing, etc.), but the travelling, for our family, was part of the adventure, and we were in a central spot to get to the attractions that we wanted to see in the province. We loved walking along the beach any chance we could get. The kids didn't want to leave!

Beachfront property near the pei ferry

Nice! Good size place. Well stocked kitchen. Beach is like a 2 min walk, and the beach is pretty nice: sandy, fairly warm, no big waves. Friendly town folk to chat with, but generally very quiet, almost like a private beach. The house has plenty of towels and board games. No wifi, though.

It was the perfect place to reconnect with our adult kids and our grandbabe. We spent days visiting the 2 beaches rock hunting, sandcastle building and naming the seals. Walking to the lighthouse at the end of the road was a must for our grandbabe and watching the ferries leave Pictou was always a must each day. The porches and balconies allowed us to watch stunning sunrises and sunsets and just relaxing with our family. The cottage has everything you need for comfort and fun. And when the sunset, a few games nights were the hit of the vacation. Erin, our host, messaged to make sure we had everything we needed and made us feel at home! We'd definitely book again with Erin and this lovely cottage. Thanks Erin of a lovely place to stay!

We had a great weekend at the Caribou Island Cottage. Erin was very helpful and responsive to any questions we had. The property was very clean and had a well stocked kitchen. The views from the top decks were amazing. Just a short walk to the beach and great for watching the PEI ferry come and go. We would love to return to this cottage in the future. Thank you Erin for hosting us.

Erin has a beautiful updated cottage that is well kept and very clean. She was very responsive when I had questions. It was really nice to have a quiet beautiful beach right there. My only complaint would be the multiple camping trailers parked on neighbouring properties which I felt took away from the atmosphere a bit. We still had a great time and anyone we ran into was kind and considerate.
