| Gail and Joe are very kind and are wonderful hosts. They have really thought of everything you'd need to make your stay comfortable and complete at the Summerhouse. The Summerhouse is beautifully decorated. The pictures online give you only a quick glimpse of inside. The vaulted ceilings with the exposed beams are not only beautiful, but they make the place feel larger than it is. Outside, you feel like you're in your own little world as you look out through the trees surrounding the property at the Northumberland Straight from the front deck.You are pretty centrally located on the North shore, so visiting any part of island is within reason. We can't wait to book another vacation there so we can once again enjoy the peace and tranquility of this property.

Owner response: So happy you had a good time on PEI. Thanks for this wonderful review! Just a note, we are on the South shore just a 30 minute drive to the North shore. But PEI is an island and looking at the map upside down or downside up you will always get to a shore and then turn left or right. You can't get lost! Cheers! Gail and Joe | |

| Welcoming hosts Gail & Joe provide a wonderful cottage with all the amenities for a comfortable stay in lovely surroundings.All in a peaceful, relaxing setting with birdsong! The trees burst into leaf during our stay and the weather could not have been better for our 11 day stay.
Will look forward to a future stay.
Thank you,
Marilyn & Klaus

| We really enjoy our stay at the cottage. It is beautiful place and peaceful.It is nicer than it appears on pictures.It was nice to sleep with a breeze ever night.The kitchen is well equipped.You can go sit in the screened in porch when it rains and there is no bugs either.You can also watch the stars at night.There is no fire pit that is the only negative point to this beautiful cottage.It is very close to a provincial park.It is a nice walk to get there.The homemade granola that the owners left for us was delicious.I highly recommend this place.

Owner response: So happy you enjoyed your stay with us. Sorry about the fire pit. There were so many fires in the Maritimes and the Summerhouse is surrounded by dry fields and close to the woods, we thought it wiser to forgo outdoor fires this year. Thanks for the review! | |

| Gail and Joe are wonderful, kind and very thoughtful hosts. Their cottage is beautiful, quiet and stocked with almost everything you could possibly need. It was spotless, comfortable and roomy. Great places to sit outside and even a screened in porch for when it rains. I was a little worried with no AC, due to the recent heat waves but Gail assured me the ocean breezes would make it comfortable... she was exactly right! LOVED sleeping with the breezes through the windows - so peaceful!
It is in a quieter part of the island, but close enough to Charlottetown, Cornwall and many tourist areas. We stayed 2 weeks, and booked for THREE weeks next summer, before we left. Cannot recommend this place enough! Absolutely NO complaints or suggestions - it was literally perfection.

| We have stayed at SummerHouse several times over the past 10 years. This cottage has everything; a view of Northumberland Straight, gorgeous sunsets, privacy, a beach across the road... the beds in the 3 bedrooms are comfy and the Kerns have thought of everything to equip the cottage with all we ever needed. The screened in porch is in addition to the main deck, and is terrific to have the choice. We love this little piece of paradise. If you are looking for a peaceful PEI retreat, look no further.
