Chrissydale Cottage Near Beach, Anne of Green Gables Region

We selected the cottage due to its proximity to Cavendish - only 10 minutes to the boardwalk and Cavendish beach. The cottage was very clean and accomodating for a family of 5. The bathroom is newly renovated and the three bedrooms upstairs had very comfortable beds. You don't need to bring a thing along to the cottage except for a nice bottle of wine to sip on the deck overlooking the rolling farmland. There is beautiful beach just 5 minutes away - a must to see for a walk on the beach at sunset. The owners were very easy to deal with along with the caretakers - who phoned and dropped by to make sure everything was up to our liking. If you are looking for a nice, affordable family vacation check out PEI and stay at Chrissydale!

We returned to Chrissydale in 2011 following a beautiful vacation spent in the summer of 2010 there and were not disappointed. The bathroom has been freshly renovated and the kitchen freshly painted adding to the beauty of this cottage. The cottage is exactly as described on the site. It is close to a public beach (Cousin's) and a short drive to Cavendish, Brackley and all the other lovely attractions that make PEI so special. Being so far back from the road adds to the special feeling of this location, especially for people like us who are not too sociable on vacation. The Annandale Farmhouse is close to the cottage but having experienced 4 different sets of renters in Annandale we can honestly say that this has never caused a problem noise wise, and people going there seem to be seeking, like us, tranquility. The cottage is very clean, plenty of linens, quilts, towels (nice quality towels) and everything needed for hassle free packing (my husband hates packing the car for vacation!) The washer and dryer are fantastic for those with children and I was so surprised when the cleaning lady came and brought us clothing detergent, another extra!! The view off of the back porch is so relaxing, looking out over rolling potatoe fields and red roads. Within a stones throw of the cottage is a 9 hole free golf course which my husband and son enjoyed immensly going nearly every day. Within 5 minutes is a fantastic seafood outlet where we bought oysters and quahogs to eat after a nice day at the beach. I think I have nothing negative to say about this cottage. It is not luxurious but feels very homey, the furniture is very nice, the couches extremely comfortable, I would take it as my own cottage just as is. A must visit approximately 20 minutes away is the "The Great Canadian Soap Factory" the experience with the children was incredible! They were able to bottle feed baby goats and have a tour of the little farm where the goats provide milk for the soap making. Also "The Dunes" art shops and restaurants is another must see, 5 minutes from the Soap Factory.

We have sincerely never felt so relaxed anywhere. It was so quiet we could hear the flies passing by while watching the sunrise on the porch. The cottage is a beautiful "home away" with everything a person could possibly need on a summer vacation. From beach towels and toys, to lobster pots and oyster knives. The beds are comfortable and clean with extra sheet if needed. Washer and dryer a big plus with a young family. The long driveway is perfect for young children to ride their bikes and the beach is very close. It is so beautiful that we reserved right away for the following summer!! Highly recommended for those who need to get away from it all!!
