Hi My family is going to PEI from October 7-12th. We will have one home base in Charlottetown and wonder where you would recommend for our second home base? Thank you!!

Hello Carolyn,

Thank you for your question to Ask An Islander.

Charlottetown will be an ideal base, as it will be central to most things you will wish to visit. The second base, I would recommend close to some activities you may wish to do. During your time here the PEI Fall Flavours will be happening.  Maybe you would like your second base to be near the beach, to go beach combing. It really depends on your interests and where on the Island they are being held.

In Stanley Bridge, you will be close to Green Gables, the beaches and wonderful small communities and food spots. A possible location to stay at would be Campbell's Stanley View Rentals or Dunescape Rivage.

Maybe you would like to be golfing? The Brudenell Fairways Chalets are located near two golf courses, white sandy beaches and lots of food adventures.

What are some must see and do items on you bucket list?

Happy vacation planning,

Erin Davis
