I would like to rent a cottage near a beach in PEI. Where would you suggest I go. I want a clean and quiet place. Thank you so much. Diane

Hello Diane,

Thank you for your question to Ask an Islander.

Prince Edward Island has just under 1100 kms of shoreline and an inventory of more than 450 cottage options. Keeping in mind your vision of a cottage rental near a beach in a clean and quiet place, a few centrally located ones include but not limited to are OceanSong Cottage, Northshore Nook or Rustico Bay Sunset Cottage.  Along the North Cape Coastal Drive, Waterford Cottages are found on the west shore. Along the Points East Coastal Drive, you will find Tammy Hanlon #2. These are just a very few of the choices and hopefully these will provide a starting point for you.  The Tourism PEI website has the complete listing of licensed cottages complete with details and a listing of the many other inviting cottage options that you will love.

The Island awaits your cottage vacation.

Regards,

Kevin Barbour
