The room we were given was in a motel type building. It was clean but very dated. The beds were okay, on the firm side. The towels were so thin and some had the stitched side removed so it was frayed top and bottom and literally looked like what you would use for rags. The bathroom door if you locked it was very hard to get unlocked to get out and the hot water was pretty non existent. But the property was very close to everything we wanted to see and staff were friendly. The room did have AC which was amazing since it was over 30 degrees the whole time there.

Perfect location for our visit to Prince Edward Island. Cavendish is a great town with lots to do, and our cottage was conveniently located to everything. Cottage was clean, comfortable and spacious. Floor of the cottage was slightly slanted, but that was barely noticeable. Nice pool area as well on warmer days. Within walking distance of a nice seafood restaurant and a Tim Hortons (for breakfast coffee and donuts), and about a minute drive to the Green Gables Estate. We came to PEI to bike ride, and Shining Watters is about a 2 minute ride to one of the best coastal trails on the island (and short drives to other points along the Confederation Trail.) Loved it!

This is the view from Prince Edward Island National Park, about 2 minutes by bike and less than a 10-minute walk from the cottages.

It was good. Limited Parking (if the place was fully booked and if you had a pick up) but not impossible. 1 pool was closed and the play area could be updated a bit We never asked anyone but was not shampoo in the shower. There was hand soap. Perfect cabin with stove, fridge, dishwasher and table. Was very well equipped to stay. They state walking distance to ocean....its a bit of a walk but all that being said, very nice place. Very close to anything you'd want to do (by car) and very clean. I would recommend this place.

Nice Holiday cabin.

Check in was quick and easy. However when we got to our cabin the key didn’t work. Went back to the office and got another one, that one worked but barely, it was very finicky. The inside of the cabin is slightly outdated but it was clean and plenty of room, the bedrooms were a good size. The bathroom was also a good size. The biggest complaint we had was the issue with the hot water. When showering the water would go from the temperature you set to luke warm then boiling hot. Definitely not safe to let a child shower unattended. It was very frustrating. The playground is run down, the pool was very nice. The BBQ was clean and ready to use.

Nice little cabins, very clean, staff are super friendly. Even with lots of people, it's pretty quiet. Close to everything you'd want to do in Cavendish for attractions. There's an amazing lookout nearby for a great sunset! I'll definitely be back to stay here!

We stayed in a duplex cottage which was ok, but did not having parking beside it. Had to park our vehicle on the grass across the driveway. Also the decking was older and my granddaughter ended up with at least ten splinters in her feet and hands. She’s 3 so wasn’t an issue with crawling on the deck, she just walked barefoot a few times before we realized . Staff were super nice at check-in .
