A five-minute walk to the ocean is what we wanted, and it is what we got. The cottage was a nice size for our family of five, enough beds for everyone and two living areas so you can get some quiet time. Again, being able to walk to the ocean is a massive plus, Charlottetown is a 20-30 minute drive away and the busier beaches of the north shore are about a 40-minute drive away. But the beach behind the house is beautiful, nice and quiet, we barely saw anyone there and we went just about every day for a week. It was perfect.
