Manor On The Pond

There are many places on Prince Edward Island that offer exciting nightlife and busy places for tourists, but if you're looking more a more relaxed pace for your vacation, the East Coast is the place to be. While an easy 45-minute drive from Charlottetown, Little Pond is a hidden gem that attracts people looking for a more leisurely get-away. The local beaches, including Sally's Beach Provincial Park, offer the red sand and quiet locations you picture when you think about spending a day at the beach. Looking for a once-in-a-lifetime dining experience? Just an 8-minute scenic drive will find you at the Inn at Bay Fortune, owned by celebrity chef Michael Smith where you can experience "The Feast" at his Fireworks restaurant in the Inn. Golf at the famous Links at Crowbush Cove (35 minutes), or at Dundarave and Brudenell (20 minutes). Visit the town of Souris's lighthouse and sea glass festival or the town of Montague for its wharf and fine dining. Travel to the East Point Lighthouse for one half of the Tip-to-Tip challenge and stop at Basin Head Provincial Park to walk on the singing sands. Spend an afternoon on the trails on horseback courtesy of Brudenell Riding Stables. Visit nearby Georgetown to watch a master artisan at work at Shoreline Design and take in a theater show or ceilidh in the evening. Brochures and information about hundreds of things to see and do are available in the house and the host is available to help you plan your trip in advance!
