Room was clean and spacious although the property is a bit confusing with booking having the motel and cottages separated. The walls are thin and were next to families which hindered sleep until late but overall it was fine for the price.

The cottage was great with air conditioning and was clean. Having a dishwasher was great and a well stocked kitchen and a BBQ. Location was awesome for beaches and outdoor activities. We were missing a shower curtain and the kids playground area was a little tired but it worked for the kids. Overall, would stay again

Clean comfortable and quiet with very helpful and friendly staff. They were new managers but tried their best to steer us to local sights. Paid hot breakfast eggs sausage bagels and more available for $8+tax. Recommended. Also, close to Cavendish Beach, Anne of Green Gables center and walking distance to The Lost Anchor for excellent fish n chips. The house itself has close ties to LMM's story. Recommend highly.
