We stayed here at the tail end of our island adventure. The place was large enough for our family. The beach was ok, kayaks were fun. Wi-Fi was good. Laundry and cooking space were good.
Spacious location for 3 couples, lots of supplies, bbq, great water pressure and steps to the water. Swimming preferred at the more known beaches. Kayaking was available and close to the water. Lots of cooking supplies, don't buy too many groceries before checking with the owner or the cabinets yourself. Recommend Cabot Beach or Thunder Cove beach about 40 minutes drive. Suzanne was super helpful with any issues like propane. Recommend a "what to do cheat sheet" for some directions.
The location was amazing, the size and cleanliness of the home/cottage was great. It had almost anything you might need but forgot - draws and closets well stocked. The ad indicated that the property had an airt conditioner but it did not. The home/cottage held the moisture of our 4 day stay leaving carpets and bedding feeling moist. A dehumidifer is highly recommended. We didn't see any kayaks.
What we found the best about this property was how quiet it was. It was close to the water for strolls along the beach. Decks were nice to sit on and enjoy a drink. The weather wasn't as nice as we had wanted so we weren't able to use the kayaks or BBQ/Firepits. The cottage had all amenities you could want. We were two couples travelling together and we each had one side of the cottage with our own bedroom and full bathroom. The only downfall would be that the cottage is not airconditioned - but fans throughout. We were fortunate that it wasn't too hot during our stay so keeping the windows open and fans on kept the cottage cool. The cottage is a bit far to drive to main attractions but we were adventuring the whole island so it didn't deter us from doing so. Summerside is only a short drive away for groceries etc. We did get pizza from a local spot and it was yummy. I would definitely recommend staying here.
Great cottage to relax or entertain. Very quiet and relaxing. The owner is super nice and very accommodating to our questions. Would stay here again and recommend to all.
My name is Janice. I grew up in this community but moved to the mainland in my early twenties. After retiring from teaching, I purchased this cottage as my version of coming home. Situations don't always go as planned and for now, I hope our Island visitors can enjoy their stay at Grandview Cottage.
Spacious and roomy. Lots of private yard area away from other cottages. Easy access to the cottage from the back deck any time of the day or night without disturbing other cottagers. River beach is great for wading in warm safe waters and sand for long strolls along miles along the river banks. Shore shoes are recommended.
Close to Summerside and an easy drive to many central beaches on the Island. Cabot Park, Thunder Cove, and Cavendish, to name to the main ones. The Linkletter and Rod Miller River resort Golf Courses are also within a short drive from the cottage.
