PEI is the perfect family vacation! We only had one week but enjoyed all the magic of the island. Thunder cove is gorgeous. The location of the cottage can’t be beat. With sunrise and sunset views from the wrap around deck and unobstructed view of the ocean and dunes. The cottage is relaxing and spacious. The kids loved exploring the dunes and beach combing. We look forward to returning to PEI!

THE PLUSSES: Property location & view excellent--Beds & linens upstairs were good; THE REST: Overall Property needs significant refresh & investment as it is very tired and ''rental weary'' Sliding doors X3 that do not slide andone must fight with them to close & open!; Floors, carpet & Kitchen was was dirty upon arrival, including utensils & cooking implements, drawers, cupboards and appliances which all needed a cleaning-scrubbing before use--(food left behind by prior occupant-crumbs, hairs & dust etc); BBQ was filthty ,with grill and drip area underneath, not cleaned in months AND ,as a result ,was a fire hazard even when used carefully.The BBQ is on it's last legsl iike many of the other appliances ( EX: Dryer needed repair during our stay & fridge had difficulty keeping temperature setting when filled up for the week)., Deck structure would sway when someone walked inside the house and picnic tables were unstable and therefore not used; Last but not least, we arrived to find a mound of recycling --compost and garbage bags left behind. Upon enquireing we received a note that the recycling bags ( of which there were 18) are only picked up on the third Thursday of the month with no indication as to whom would/should take care of same! On the Thursday in question we took out our own garbage and compost as well as ALL of the recycling . That said, at the price charged for one week, we should not have to worry about such things except for the bags we generate. The disappointment also stemmed from the fact that the owner who lived nearby , showed up just as we were leaving and seemed ''unaware'' of the current status of the rental unit and blamed things on her cleaning crew. I take no pleasure in addressing these issues but, as I indicated to the owner, when people pay a premium amount for a rental, they are entitled to expect a clean and functional unit. One was left with the feeling that this tired property made the view & location very expensive!

The house itself is a bit quirky, but the bright, open main living space with panoramic views is absolutely unbeatable. Beach access is directly beside the house- you could not possibly get closer- and the dune views are perfectly PEI. We loved staying here! The two upper bedrooms are convenient and comfortable, and the attached bathrooms are a definite plus. The lower bedrooms are adequate for kids. The bunk room could work for small children although it is very tight and our kids would not sleep in this room. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, utensils. The wrap around deck is spectacular and where we spent most of our time. It really is the highlight of the property and we enjoyed it very much! The out door shower with warm water was very handy. This property was great for two families with kids and I would recommend it highly.

Again this year we had a magical time at Mostly Dune. The operators of this property are professional, attentive and meticulous in their care of the property and their customers. Thank you for another wonderful week - see you next year!

We had a great vacation!

Beautiful location, great cottage, enjoyed our stay. Only item to mention is the cottage could use a good cleaning. Very dusty throughout.

We had a fantastic time! The views from the cottage were gorgeous. We rented with two other families and had plenty of room. Each family had their own bathroom which was very helpful when getting ready to go in the morning :). The owners are very lovely people and were always available for help or to answer questions. They always made sure the propane tank for the BBQ was full and that our needs were met. We will definitely rent from them again. In our opinion Thunder Cove is the most beautiful place on the island! The Sparks Family and Friends

You would have to be a real grump or diva to not adore this cottage! The place is beautiful and the location ideal. You have an amazing view of dunes and ocean all around you with the wrap around windows and a deck on two levels also wrap around. The gorgeous beach is steps away. The owner came right over when we needed help with the grill. The cottage was clean and had all that we needed, we were seven with three kids and had plenty of space, the two levels is great if you have kids, they can play downstairs. Queen size bed downstairs was not very comfortable - hard - but other beds were comfortable. The cottage is so great that you will have to force yourself to leave to visit other parts of the island. Thanks to Mescal and John for sharing this truly wonderful cottage, it gave us so much happiness.
