quaint cottage
We stayed at the Rustico Cottages a week after the hurricane hit the area, so the trip itself wasn't the best, nor was the weather. The best part is the accommodation. The cottages and grounds are well maintained, very clean and comfortable. The hosts are also great.

Very clean, comfortable bed, tidy property. Everyone who works there is very friendly. Just wish the booking would have specified the duplex unit, or had the option to choose a single self-contained cabin. Great location, close to the Cavendish and the beach.

Nice, quiet and clean place....not fancy but comfortable. Nice to have a kitchenette. Two burners and a microwave. Didn't try the BBQ, but each cabin has one. Property is approximately 5 minutes drive from all the 'sights' of Cavendish

all is well. We are in our 80s and still love sleeping together. Couldn't do that, the bed was too small. The kitchen could use a chopping board and a kettle.

Hi Gerry and Mary, the double bed is very cramped for those who used to sleep in the queen bed. Only Cottage9 and our cottage have queen beds. Cottage 9 is priced the same as your stay. Wishing you all the best on your golf journey. Bests,

clean but run down
Pros - Low cost. It's clean and close to tourist attractions. The on-site manager is very nice. The bed was comfortable and the air conditioner worked. Cons - pictures online make it look modern, but the cabin we stayed in looked like it was in the 1980's. It's very run down. Toilet leaks, hot water runs out after 5 minutes, Wi-Fi only works 60% of the time. Four stars might be a bit generous as the online pictures of the lodge are deceiving, but the staff were nice and I didn't expect it to be a high end hotel.

Hello, thank you for staying at Rustico Acres Cottages. Rustico Acres Cottages are self-catering accommodation. Tenants need to clean the room and fetch bedding, towels, etc. by themselves. But clean bedding, towels, trash bags, etc. are always available at our laundromat. We are country style accommodation (casitas) based on rustic style with more modern conveniences that we wish we have always strived for. the best,

They didn't provide a non slip mat in the shower so my wife fell in the shower. The room was not cleaned very well, dust everywhere and the lawn was not mowed. The office is closed during office hours and no telephones are available in the event of an emergency after office hours

We are sorry about your situation. You may still be angry. Our lawn is mowed twice a week in June. It is very interesting that they grow so vigorously in June. For office hours; our office closes at 17:00 until June 27th (low season), but we have posted a contact number on the door of the office. Our office is open until 21:00 after June 28th (high season). Given any chance, we hope to serve you and your wife better next time. Bests,

Everything is fine, the cottage is a duplex, with thin walls you can hear everything from the neighbors. The internet wasn't great and had to sit on the picnic tables outside to get work done. cold and windy

I love log cabins. I should have asked about the refrigerator. I wasn't sure what I should set it to, my milk and orange juice was frozen the next morning. 😂 Ha ha! I figured it out (mostly; my milk can keeps freezing :) ). The shower was fine. I found the bed to be very comfortable. The couch (sofa) is comfortable; a great place to relax. Reminds me of my relatives cabins from my youth, only better. 😁

Nice kitchen and quiet area. It worked for us because we rented a car. It saves us money because we can cook for ourselves. BBQ is a great asset!

Renting a cabin is better than staying in a hotel. You can live comfortably for less. You can live like a local. You can grill anytime. You can enjoy nature around you. Thank you for your positive review. the best,

Cozy cottage near the Cavendish
We traveled to Prince Edward Island with our mother and daughter. good idea! There are many cottages in this quaint province, some with seaside views. This group of cottages did not; however, the new owners went out of their way to make our stay a pleasant one. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was recently remodeled. Having a kitchen really saves money as we cook a lot of our own meals. The cottages are very close to Cavendish, the former home of Anne of Green Gables. It is also very close to Charlottetown, about 30-35 minutes. Living in north central PEI gives us easy access to all the magnificent coastal drives.

1 night driving trip. The location is great right next to the highway exit, but I ignored the signboard and had a hard time finding it. Best to check the location in advance on google maps etc (can't navigate). The room was quiet, clean and beautiful.
