My adult daughter and I just spent a lovely August weekend here in the Inn’s King Suite. The suite itself was very comfortable. The Inn staff were really friendly and helpful. It is walking distance to many Ann of Green Gables sites and very close to the beach. It is also close to the road to other seaside towns. We had a wonderful time.

We stayed in the main Inn with a 2 room suite. Even though it was old, it had a lot of character! The bathroom floor was on a slant, but all the fixtures were updated and worked well. Nice breakfast and friendly staff.
