Fabulous - Felt Like Home!

Family Island Fun! Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Review Submitted: September 16, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We stayed for 2 wks @ the beginning of August and we lucked out with the place we picked and the excellent weather.
It had everything you could ask for from decore (lovely pine wood throughout, Beautifully decorated, family feel, cottage/beach feel put with country class), amenties (toilet paper, laundry soap, dish soap, all appliances, towels but good ones etc...) It was clean and well maintained. It felt like home!
The other great thing was the deck overlooking the Basin was just perfect meaning the outoor furniture was nice and comfortable and the deck had a perfect view with no obstructions. Many beautiful nites so we had great use of the fire pit/fireplace outdoors.
Your not right on the beach but darn close with the camp ground right next door which many mornings I would walk through to the beach and it only took 10 minutes and you can get a nice walk along the beach if you can not walk around the Basin.
Lots to see and do it all depends on the weather and the 2wks we were there it manybe rained 1 day!
Excellent and great customer service. We would recommend this cottage to anyone because it is just worth the money but don;t pick our 2 wks :)

Review Submitted: September 2, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
what an idyllic site! we loved the location of being sandwiched between 2 shores--the constant light seabreeze was like something from a novel. the nearby beaches were glorious--great walking, great family time and frolicking. our dog had her best vacation ever! we discovered a hidden dune in walking distance--great to jump and slide and have an evening BBQ. our whole family enjoyed themselves. and the inside of the cottage was truly exquisite--immaculate and new and elegantly appointed. we had everything we needed right there. one of our best family vacations ever. we will certainly return to PEI. thanks!

Summer Holiday at The dunes

Lala in Alberta Calgary
Review Submitted: August 4, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
Our stay at the Dunes was more than what we expected.
From the moment we set foot into the cottage we knew we were going to have a special holiday!.
The pictures on the web site are beautiful but do not do the cottage justice!
Beautifully decorated, very clean, new appliances, every thing from wine glasses, pretty dishes and every small appliance and gadgets you can think of. Closets full of brand new kitchen towels, bath towels, kitchen towels and beautiful quilted bedding.
Eugene and Michelle have not left a detail out.

They also asked us to let them know if there was anything we could think of that was missing or would make our stay more enjoyable for future guests and not one of us could think of anything

We felt that we were staying in a home not a rental property.
The yard was beautiful and well kept. Close to all sorts of attractions, great restaurants, and beaches. A stone throw from Kensington, Stanley Bridge and a beautiful drive to Charlottetown.
There was not one thing we did not like about "The Dunes" , and we would highly recommend this property and would guarantee you will not be disappointed and we look forward to returning to The Dunes in the near future.
