Clean and ever-so friendly. Beautiful grounds---complete with hammocks to relax on. Breakfast was yum and pleniful. Not far from a lovely and historic town center which is enhanced by a thriving wharf full of restaurants and shops.

Campground outside Charlottetown

Hotel | "small camp ground outside charlottetown"

Quote:
The place was peaceful and amazing. They were inexpensive and quiet, boasting very clean facilities. They raise sheep and sheep-herding dogs on site--a constant source of amusement. Furthermore, they have bunnies and rabbits--too sweet. Coffee and pastry service in the morning and a small jaunt to a few great bars.

Part of the charm of PEI are the little lobster joints such as this. Unpretentious and welcoming. Clean and delicious. Full of interesting people. A real taste of the island and its native export.

Story/Tip

Quote:
We departed from Colby College and traveled up through Maine, stopped in Bangor, Maine for the infamous Bangor state fair. from there we drove on through lush maine countryside and past Mt. Katahdin. into New Brunswick, Canada.

Stayed the night in Moncton, New Brunswick. Arose to a hearty breakfast and went on along the freeway towards PEI.

En route we were delighted to find wild blueberries lining the road and a multitude of gallery/yard sales. Many a treasure found.

As the 6-mile bridge to the island is under construction, we were stopped and enjoyed a refreshing and breathtaking view of the Atlantic and PEI.
