PEI vacation home with toddlers
Hi there
Just looking to see if any previous travellers to PEI can advise on a great place to stay with toddlers - but not a hotel!
Ideally we would like:
-a guest house with at least two bedrooms
-close to the water
-children's activities on site would be a big bonus (i.e. sandbox, playhouse or large garden/yard)
- relatively remote...not looking for a motel complex
We don't particularly care which part of the island it is situated on. A comfortable place to stay and play with our 1 & 3 year old is what we're looking for. If there is additional room for a set of grandparents, great!
Google has given us a huge list of properties to check out, but nothing screams out "perfect for families"! If you found that place, please let me know!
Thanks!

Here's one we often stay in. Rental is for a week, but it is ideal for what you describe. The cottage is quite new and very well appointed. Far from the madding crowd, a five-minute walk from a pleasant, uncrowded north shore beach with shallow water close to shore. Cottage property is fairly large, no traffic dangers. It's a short drive from Kensington. http://www.peivacationrentals.com/elizabeth/index.html

Hi, these cottages are a short walk from the ocean (gorgeous white sand private beach) and it's a very family oriented place with organised children's activities onsite such as hayrides, storytelling and a playground.

It's interesting that 3 of the 4 suggestions lie within a few kms of each other and share the same wonderful beach. The Cavendish cottage is probably 20 minutes away, and in a much more touristy (some would say tacky) area of PEI.

Good point. I think we would be more interested in playing in sand than in swimming, but will have to have a think (the kids might like to swim but I prefer a heated pool)!
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
