Location was great - very close to beaches and activities. Cottage was located close to a number of other cottages which was not evident in the photos but it was quiet. Our host was very quick to respond to our messages, we had a great time! Thank you!

Very nice cottage

We very much enjoyed our stay at this cottage. It was very clean with lots of room in the open concept layout. There is a large deck and screened gazebo with a nice view of the water. We all agreed that we would definitely recommend to anyone looking to rent a cottage on PEI.

We were sorry to leave!

The cottage was clean, nicely furnished and contained good quality amenities. We appreciated the prompt response to our needs and the extras - a high chair and toys, games, etc. Katie was a pleasure to work with, and our stay at this lovely, homey cottage was comfortable and enjoyable.

Kudos for the Sea Drift in Darnley

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our weeklong stay at the Sea Drift in Darnley. Our host, Katie, quickly responded to any questions I had both before and during our stay. The accommodations were sparkling clean and sported a great selection of all the kitchen, paper and cleaning supplies we needed. Upon first walking into Sea Drift I was immediately taken with both the front and back water views from the many windows in the Great Room. We especially liked being so close to Thunder Cove Beach, as it’s one of our favorite beaches on the island. There were good opportunities to walk and bike in the area, and we weren’t far from Kensington, Summerside or Cavendish. Although the weather wasn’t always real cooperative we found lots of activities to do. The cottage’s amenities included a screened gazebo, a deck, a fire pit and even a swing, which we were able to make some use of despite the frequent showers. There were board and card games and jigsaw puzzles available, plus a good size TV. Watching a particularly spectacular late evening thunderstorm from the great room was a high point for me! We found the two bathrooms well equipped and the included washer dryer very handy. And last but not least, the three bedrooms had comfy beds, plenty of pillows and blankets available and drawers, hooks and/or closets for our belongings. All in all, we had a great week, active but also very relaxing. Thank you, Katie, for the opportunity to rent such a lovely cottage!

Family Reunion

We all had the best time ever! With 2 teenagers and female adults I was a little concerned about the bathrooms being in use constantly but not to worry, with 2 bathrooms no problem! The cottage is decorated beautifully, there is every cooking utensil you could ever need. Everything was great including the weather!
