Comfortable, well-maintained, central vacation home

We loved our weeklong stay in Anglo Rustico, touring a number of beaches, walking/running in and around the National Park, checking out local grocery stores and restaurants. The cottage was a cozy, clean, well equipped and located stay for us. Big yard, beautiful view and large deck. Geraldine was very communicated and hospitable. Definitely recommend!

Relaxing stay

The cottage was great, clean and well equipped - was quite private and great to come back to after exploring the busier towns and beaches - great for walks, biking kayaking - would definitely recommend as a convenient yet private location to explore much of the island

Perfect location for exploring PEI

Geraldine’s lovely cottage was perfect in every way. The cottage was on a quiet street directly overlooking Rustico bay. The view was magnificent and the cottage’s central location was perfect exploring PEI. The cottage was nicely appointed and easy to stay and relax in. I will miss the sunsets!

a lovely stay

We had a lovely stay here. The location was perfect, there was so much to do within just a 30 minute drive to get a real feel for PEI and enjoy some truly amazing food. We stayed with our 3 children (4, 6, 8yo). The cottage was cozy and quaint. The 2 upstairs bedrooms suited our 3 children perfectly while we used the main floor bedroom. The kitchen was well stocked for its small size. The living room space was awesome, and hosted many cozy family movie and game nights. We loved watching the sunsets, and made use of the kayaks and yard games that were available. A lovely place overall for exploring PEI!

Beautiful setting

Superb location: beautiful shoreside views from patio & master bedroom deck topped off by a family of bald eagles nesting in the backyard trees (amazing!). Wonderful, not-at-all crowded beach (all sand & not a single sharp rock or shell in or outside the water!) that is a v easy walk from the house. Multiple excellent restaurants/fish markets/bakery/coffee shop within a 15 minute drive of the house in multiple directions; & national park with beautiful (though more crowded) beaches a 30 minute drive away. The house was very clean & comfortable for our family of four & enjoys a shoreside breeze that keeps it cool even on hot days & the owner provides nice amenities (3 bikes, 2 kayaks, board games, TV with “guest” Netflix account, etc) for indoor & outdoor recreation. The main town was more of a distance (35-min drive to the charming downtown neighborhood) & features many excellent restaurants, but we were seeking seclusion, scenery & relaxation and so were happy to not go into town more than 3-4 times in our 9-day stay anyway. Checkout procedure is extraordinarily detailed & somewhat onerous compared to other places we’ve stayed (wash all sheets & towels, make all beds, ensure all light bulbs are working, etc) as owners usually have a cleaning service in between renters and also because a broken dryer made it impossible to get everything done by the 10am checkout time, but that was a minor annoyance in an otherwise PERFECT stay.

Havre de paix!

Près de tout (épicerie, restos, terrains de golf), mais loin de tout (routes, bruits, achalandage). L’endroit, très tranquille, est parfait pour relaxer avec, en plus, vue sur l’eau! Maison parfaite pour deux couples : chambre et salle de bain au 1er étage, ainsi qu’au 2 e étage, en plus d’une autre chambre au 2e).L’hôte, Géraldine, est très accessible et répond rapidement à nos questions. Il ne manque de rien dans la maison. Un havre de paix… pour adultes!

About the host

Hosted by Geraldine MacDonald

Host profile image
Your hosts, Geraldine and Onofre, have been 'Islander wanna-bees' since first stepping on the red sands roads of PEI. Setting down roots on the island is a dream come true. Plans for the future include retirement to full-time 'Islander status'; meanwhile, a cottage is the perfect mix of holiday get-away and permanent connection to the island we love.

Why they chose this property

Riverview Drive ticked all the boxes for us as a family: location, location, location. We love to enjoy peace, water views, beaches, and rural towns and landscapes, but we also love the proximity to that perfectly sized small-town-big-town city of Charlottetown. Dinner, theatre, musical events and 'too many other amenities nearby to list', give this cottage everything we think is best about PEI.

What makes this property unique

Character and charm, with privacy yet very close to North Rustico, Cavendish, Anne's Land, Brackley Beach, Charlottetown, etc... make the location- and the premises-ideal. Did we mention the water views? Did we mention there appears to be a family of bald eagles nesting on the property? Did we mention our recent 4stars-Canada Select rating by Tourism PEI?
