Great location and very comfortable!
We really enjoyed this house and the location so close to the beach. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Beds are great and the view sitting on the couch is lovely.

We stayed at the VRBO house- outside of the city to relax due to a death in the family while making arrangements - it was quiet- just what we needed.

East coast falll crawl
This was our favorite spot thus far on a trip which started in Boston and will end in Montreal. We are from the Southwest so exploring the island was an amazing new experience. The home was a great place to land for a relaxing evening after outdoor activities. Loved the modern, sleek look.

Beautiful Brackley
Excellent stay at an excellent and very very quiet location. Dunes View Cottage became a home away from home for us. Driving proximity to Brackley Beach (5mins, ample parking with Washrooms, Showers and Seasonal Cafeteria, full accessibility, Seasonal Life Guards and safe swim area, the beach stretches for miles and offers great surf walking), Charlottetown Airport (15 mins) Charlottetown Downtown Waterfront (25 mins but go via Charlottetown perimeter highway, it brings you out at the waterfront car parks and all amenities), all major grocery and everyday shopping stores (20 mins). Plentiful sightseeing drives to local beaches, towns and lovely lunchtime restaurants, all within easy reach (60-90mins). If driving to PEI via the Confederation Bridge (a must see), consider leaving by the Ferry at Wood Islands and cruise across to Caribou Nova Scotia, a wonderful experience. Lynn answered our questions promptly. We had no issues with any aspect of the Cottage, everything worked just fine and is as shown and described. We've visited PEI on several occasions over 25 years and this was our best yet. Dave n Annette Ontario

HIGHLY RECOMMEND
My family of 5 visited PEI last week, and had the privilege of staying in this STUNNING home. Spacious, beautifully decorated, with a view off the back porch that I could stare at all day. All amenities one would need are provided, and then some. The atmosphere within the home was very calming, which was greatly appreciated after days filled with constant activity. The inside pictures don't really do the home justice. It is quite a bit larger than the pictures indicate. You literally feel like you're "home". I genuinely never wanted to leave. (The island itself was enough to make me not want to go!) No matter where you drive or walk, there is immaculate farmland, rolling hills, and ocean as far as the eye can see. One of the best vacations and accommodations I've ever had.

Very nice location. Easy check in. But house was not that clean. Couches were disgusting , freezer, windows need a good cleaning. My sheets on the bed were so pilly couldn’t sleep on them. Do directions for garbage so there was 16?days of garbage. Need blinds on windows no privacy. Cardboard covering onwindow which I read earlier so should have been taken care of. Needs a deep clean .

Great house in a great location
This house was a great place for our family of seven to stay during our short time in PEI. We loved the location and spent one day going west, touring the Anne of Green Gable/Cavendish area and beyond and the next going east to Greenwich Beach. The home was well-stocked with everything from beach towels to anything you would need for the kitchen. It looked new and well taken care of. Our only complaint was the window treatments in the bedrooms did not fit the windows and block out sun or offer much privacy. Otherwise, we loved everything about the house.

Brackley Beach
Unfortunately we visited shortly after hurricane Ian hit PEI. All National Parks were closed due to the coast erosion and downed trees. This property is very close to Brackley Beach National Park. We made the best of it hitting many Light Houses and travelling the scenic routes along the coast.

Great house with a few misses!
Overall the house was a great rental. A couple of things fell short. 1. The blackout curtains in the bedrooms did not cover the windows. 2. A window in the third bedroom was covered with cardboard and duct tape! 3. There were no hand towels. 4. No directions for recycling bins or other household information provided.

My family had a lovely time staying at the Dunes View Cottage. The house is beautiful, very clean, modern and spacious. The rooms were comfortable, laundry very handy and kitchen had all the utensils and dishes we needed. The location was great, such a short drive to Brackley Beach and PEI National Park (the pass was provided, which was perfect). We loved every minute of exploring PEI and then coming home to relax at this rental.

Like new inside. Well-stocked kitchen, but bring your own Keurig pods. Beds were very comfortable. Open concept. Nice bbq/deck with view of inlet. 20 minutes from downtown Charlottetown. Plenty of golf courses within 30 minutes. PEI national park pass provided/entrance within a mile from the house. Would recommend this property to anyone!

Thanks for the memories!
We enjoyed this spacious clean house with a large kitchen and all the essentials. It was located minutes from the wonderful sandy Brackley Beach complete with Beach pass. Easy to get to Cavendish, Anne of Green Gables, Charlottetown and other places of interest. The laundry facilities came in handy for our family as well. We got prompt replies from Lynn when asking questions about the amenities. Our family of eight really enjoyed our stay as we explored PEI for the first time. Great memories!

We stayed at this property for a week in June 2022. There were six adults, and the space was perfect for the six of us. The host was extremely responsive to all of our questions. The location was great and the addition of the national park pass was a nice touch.

This vacation rental is absolutely lovely! The pictures don’t do it justice and there is nothing we could say that would improve it. On the other hand, PEI in November is a bust! Literally 90% of the things we went to see were closed. This is no fault of the vacation home and we would not hesitate to return to this fantastic property.
