We had to leave before breakfast on our last day and they brought us a cooler with goodies the night before so we would have something to eat before leaving. How’s that for service !! Amazing!!

We enjoyed our stay. Although Room 17 has a double bed, if two guests are staying then they need to be patient and resourceful in their use of space.
Decor matching the Anne of Green Gables. Not sure if it is an excuse to not renovate. It smell dusty. Breakfast selection was good but we arrived only 20 minutes after the start and a few things were gone already with the only refill being of the hard boiled eggs during the hour or so we were there.
Staff was vey nice and friendly. Tha inn building is in need of repairs/renovation
Floors very slanted. Breakfast was not so good, cold. Had ants in room and saw them on buffet table. Probably won't get back to PEI but wouldn't stay there again, too many other choices.
The location was great, very near Anne of Green Gables Park, where we enjoyed the trails. Make sure you walk up to the cemetery, and to the Post Office that has a beautiful display! The location was great, not far to the beach, the dunes and Lake of shining waters. There is a small village nearby with dining options. Try the Turkey place!
The staff was really nice and helpful here. Our room with twin beds was adequate and the beds were comfortable.
What a gem of a place! I’m so glad we stayed here! We had a room in the main lodge. The staff were absolutely fantastic about our to Emily! She went above and beyond to tell us the history of the home and even showed us a few hidden things in the inn! The room was absolutely charming and super close to the green gables
Our room was so cute! It was centrally located on the island and easy to get to everything. The staff were very kind and knowledgeable about the area and the history. I wouls certainly stay here again.
Check in was quick. Front desk girl very friendly and helpful. Given room in Lodge and the flooring is very uneven and old. Room was very small. We are seniors and would not have booked there if I knew that we had to carry our luggage up 14 steep steps to get to our room. Would not book there again
