We were here for a 7-day stay. Our group consisted of my brother and I, together with our families (four parents and four kids 18-24) PROS: -Beautiful views -Nice location -Nicely decorated -Host responded quickly when told there were lightbulbs out CONS: -stuff over every surface; nowhere for us to have our own things... Closets are full, cupboards are full, tables full of things. We tripped over 'decor' and our own belongings all week -It was early July, so it was hot out. There is no A/C and couldn't open all the windows because of a lack of screens for some windows (tons of bugs outside) and not able to open others -Downstairs was VERY musty - we emptied the dehumidifier non-stop -Layout: upstairs bedroom was so odd. Has two singles in there, very cramped, couldn't even close the door. No space for luggage. The open basement sleeping area has four single beds, more suitable for small children (not sure they would sleep down there by themselves?) -I specifically asked beforehand if these were swimmable beaches and I was told that they were. They are, in fact, not swimmable beaches. Not even walkable beaches. -Kitchen appliances are TERRIBLE! Refrigerator and dishwasher beeping non-stop for various reasons randomly all the time, even in the middle of the night. We were told to 'unplug and plug back in' the fridge. We had to do this several times. -Cookware is limited, no big pots for boiling seafood?? Kitchen is super cramped with no counter or cupboard storage space

Our family had a great time at the Cordial House. The location of the property is top notch for our purposes. It's minutes away from the Cavendish beach and Anne of Green Gables heritage site. A few other beautiful beaches on the north coast are all within reasonable driving distance. There is a beach clamming place within walking distance where you can find a lot of softshell clams. Shopping and food options are nearby. The house is well decorated and full of characters. It's a relatively older property so it has its pros and cons. It's a beautiful oceanside property with stunning views to the ocean directly from the living room. It's at the end of a corner so it's very quite with almost no traffic. It would be nicer if the garbage from the previous guests could be cleaned instead of being kept on the side of the house and on the driveway during our whole stay. I don't know the city's pickup schedule. At a couple nights I can hear sound of critters going thru the garbage. I did not check since it's very dark outside. Also like others mentioned, the basement has a noticeable musty smell but it did not bother my family's stay so I don't know if the dehumidifier would be helpful because we did not turn it on. Overall it's a great and enjoyable stay because of all the pros.

Cordial House is in a great location with a beauty view and comfy beds! Christine was a great host - very easy to communicate with! Make sure to get/follow instructions for the appliances! We would definitely consider returning!

Lovely house , super quiet and private , water view for coffee on the deck- perfect stay !

Perfect location, beautiful setting, definitely come back for another stay.

The views of this cottage did not disappoint! Every bit as beautiful as the pictures show. The location is also perfect for exploring because it sits nicely in the middle of the island and you are a short drive from so many fun attractions. Christine was kind enough to share some great recommendations for restaurants (all of which were sooo good). She is a kind and responsive host. My only note is that the cabin itself could use some attention. It is clearly well-loved but lacked cleanliness in some areas. We loved the view from the couch but the couch itself was quite dirty. All the closets were full of storage making it hard to unpack and store luggage in a small space. Overall though, we did enjoy our stay and I would recommend this place to others-- just a few notes for added improvement :)

We had a wonderful stay at Cordial House. The property was beautiful and the house was cute and comfortable and had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again.

We came up for the solar eclipse and this was the perfect place to stay.
