Excellent Spot

It was cozy and comfortable and it was just what we needed as a family for the weekend while we were attending a Provincial competition. We want to return and just enjoy it on vacation. The views are spectacular and the the location is perfect.

Lovely home by the bay!

We are home now after a week’s stay at this cozy and tidy home. The views were marvelous as was walking the boardwalk across the street for exercise and meeting friendly folks along the way. Everything was at our fingertips when preparing meals. Wonderful memories were made and we will highly recommend it to all.Thank you, Cathy!!

Thank you Cathy and Leslie for another lovely vacation in North Rustico. Lots of walks on the boardwalk, fresh fish every day from the fish market, and pastries galore from the bakery. Also thanks for ALL your help with our check out.

The most wonderful view!

My sister and I loved every second of our stay at this lovely cottage. We ate our meals out on the deck watching the boats in the harbour and the peaceful water view. The cottage is central to everything we wanted to do and it was lovely to stroll down into the town to the bakery and grocery store. Such a lovely spot! Cannot wait to return next year!

Lovely!

The cottage has a lovely outlook over the harbour, and is a short walking distance along the boardwalk to all the local restaurants (and the theatre, beach etc.). The hosts are very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. We hope to go back, which says it all, really.

Perfect way to discover and get a good feel of PEI

We loved our stay in North Rustico. The house is a short drive to Cavendish, PEI National Park and only 30 minutes to Charletown. The boardwalk in front of the house is awesome. The boardwalk takes you to the Wharf, restaurants, the beach and more. The house is in a perfect location for a true PEI experience. From eating mussels/lobster to deep sea fishing. The house was perfect for our little family and well equipped with everything needed. Our host was awesome. Thank you again. You made our first experience in PEI a memorable one.

Canceled due to Mother Nature-

So disappointed that due to the extensive damage to PEI by Hurricane Fiona we were unable to make it to Cathy's lovely property in North Rustico. Was glad to hear from Cathy that they suffered no damage and hopefully all of PEI will recover in the near future. Cathy communicated regularly during this difficult time and was very responsive to our concerns. When it became apparent access to the island was limited, she didn't hesitate to issue a refund for our stay. Our hearts go out to all on Prince Edward Island. Please note, I was unable to submit my review unless I indicated ratings - obviously since I never stayed, my ratings are based solely on the listing information.

Perfect spot for us!

The Harbour House is a real home away from home! We especially loved hanging out on “The Porch” - the deck - every day (many times during the day 😎). I think we ate every meal and snack out there (breakfast included)!! The location was perfect for us. Very relaxing. The boardwalk was just across the street and we were in walking distance to the beach, a bakery and a number of spots to eat. Big thank you to Cathy and Les for making us feel welcome and being only a text away when we had a question. We’re hoping to stay again in the future!

Emplacement stratégique avec vu sur la baie

Nous avons aimé le site près de tout, poissonnerie, épicerie crèmerie, plage, restaurants et surtout la marche sur trottoir de bois . La maison est propre mais la cuisine aurait besoin d’une mise à jour car nous aimons faire la cuisine. Pour l’ambiance la décoration est chaleureuse et confortable. L’accueil de la proprio était bien gentil vu notre longue route. Merci
