    I traveled with two of my friends and we loved it. The property was spotlessly clean. The kitchen was new and there were other updates in the home too. The view on the deck was beautiful. We also walked down to the river and along the shore a little ways. The scenery in this area is stunning. We went to both nearby lighthouses for the sunset. It is close to several locations dedicated to LM Montgomery/Anne of Green Gables. My only minor concerns were we could have used more mirrors, maybe a full length one (3 women getting ready!)? And one bed was very hard. But nothing that bothered us too much! It was a wonderful stay and trip. Thanks for sharing this place where we made such great memories!

    Lovely views from the back deck. Access to the sandy beach was difficult depending on the tide. Needed to drive down to beach where parking was limited. No dishwasher as advertised.

    We loved the peace and quiet along with the views over the French River and New London Bay. It is down a narrow lane, but we loved being away from the busy Cavendish area. We watched eagles, cormorants, great blue heron, ducks, and many other birds from the property. It was also fun to watch the fishing boats and other boats pass by. Though it is in a quiet location the Anne sites are only a short, easy drive away as are many of the North Shore beaches. The waterfront along the property is not well-suited for swimming, but it is great for evening strolls with the kids looking for snails, crabs, and other creatures plus you get the river and bay views. A nice sand beach and the New London Lighthouse are only a 20 minute walk away either by road or along the waterfront at low tide. Everything worked well at the property and it was nice and clean. The kitchen (well equipped), living area, downstairs bathroom, and one bedroom are nice and large. The upstairs bathroom is tiny (fine for us) and two of the bedrooms are on the smallish side, but are still nice. The property management company communicated well with us. We didn't ask them to do anything for us, but we pointed out a few items that would benefit future guests. Our impression was that they were appreciative and would make those small improvements. We had a wonderful week on beautiful PEI and were blessed with great weather and a nice base for our family vacation. We'd love to return sometime in the future.

    This was the perfect location for our exploration of Prince Edward Island. My mother, my sister, my daughter, and I were enchanted by the breathtaking views of French River from our back deck. We were there to see the Anne sights, and this lovely cottage was very centralized so everything was within about a 20 minute drive but still far away that we were away from the bustle of the more touristy zones. We absolutely loved it. The home itself was well stocked in the kitchen, laundry room and bathroom. And the owner was very responsive and helpful, and the restaurant recommendations she gave were wonderful. We would absolutely stay here again.

    Good place for a family. Not great for really little ones, since the railing on the upper level seems low.

    3 Dodds place has excellent views and is within walking distance of a wonderful quiet beach. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get a nice quiet getaway to PEI.

    The cottage was well equipped, tidy and suited our 4 adult group very well. The location is superb if you are looking for a beautiful setting in a quiet location. Our 5 night stay couldn't have been more enjoyable.

    A great cottage with wonderful beach access. Fairly well equipped with sufficient space as a family. Our 2-year-old daughter really enjoyed her time here and started to refer the place as her cottage by the end of the trip. Thankfully, the weather was great -- spotty internet and satellite TV -- so no urgency for indoor activities.

    We loved the access to the water and beautiful beach. We also loved being in the country. Close enough to stores. It says it sleeps 6, but difficult for us as we have 2 teenagers that are 6’2. Beds are small, we bought an air mattress to accommodate the 5 of us.
