My husband and toddler and I spent the month of August 2021 at Krista’s cottage. We had an absolutely spectacular time. Enough can’t be said about the cottage - it’s super functional, great amenities, and the best part - the view is outstanding! The beach is rocky, but it’s perfect for exploring and walking and beach combing. When the tide is high, it’s also great for swimming if you have water shoes!
The location is also wonderful! It’s 15 min from the bridge to PEI, which offers great potential for day trips - we went over to check out a beach for an afternoon! Also, there are some amazing sandy beaches nearby if you want to drive 10-15 mins! Cape tormentine - Has an amazing beach with a special view of the bridge - or turn around and you’re looking off into endless ocean! And one of our favourites, Murray Beach provincial park - is 15 min away and is SO sandy (as a provincial park it has to be raked, so it’s really safe for kids to run around!) - we probably went to Murray beach 10+ times because it was so charming and we loved the sand!
Also, up the road 5 mins from the cottage is an AMAZING restaurant/pit stop called cape 16 that had incredible food! It’s so convenient to be far out enough, that you don’t have lots of fast food restaurants as a crutch, but to have an amazing restaurant nearby is clutch on vacation :). They have amazing pizza (I highly recommend the cauliflower crust!!) and baked goods and ice cream!
The cottage is SO peaceful! The neighbours were lovely and quiet and the caretakers so friendly. Krista was super great to communicate with, and was fast and always helpful.
I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again! In fact I’m dreaming of when I can possibly come next! Thank you Krista for a truly magical time!
