We enjoyed our stay. Although Room 17 has a double bed, if two guests are staying then they need to be patient and resourceful in their use of space.

What a gem of a place! I’m so glad we stayed here! We had a room in the main lodge. The staff were absolutely fantastic about our to Emily! She went above and beyond to tell us the history of the home and even showed us a few hidden things in the inn! The room was absolutely charming and super close to the green gables

We had to leave before breakfast on our last day and they brought us a cooler with goodies the night before so we would have something to eat before leaving. How’s that for service !! Amazing!!

The location was great, very near Anne of Green Gables Park, where we enjoyed the trails. Make sure you walk up to the cemetery, and to the Post Office that has a beautiful display! The location was great, not far to the beach, the dunes and Lake of shining waters. There is a small village nearby with dining options. Try the Turkey place!
The staff was really nice and helpful here. Our room with twin beds was adequate and the beds were comfortable.

We very much enjoyed our stay at shining waters country inn. Its close to all of the cavendish attractions. But i suggest you come between june and august as most of the stuff beaides the anne of green gables house is closed. The jacuzzi tub was great though and it a charming little inn.

Decor matching the Anne of Green Gables. Not sure if it is an excuse to not renovate. It smell dusty. Breakfast selection was good but we arrived only 20 minutes after the start and a few things were gone already with the only refill being of the hard boiled eggs during the hour or so we were there.
