Waterfront executive cottage

Your retreat in the heart of the Prince Edward Island north shore!

Panoramic views of New London Bay and Cavendish sand dunes
Floor-to-ceiling windows and cathedral ceiling in the spacious Great Room provide a spectacular scenic backdrop for a relaxing summer vacation. Bask in the views of one of the most scenic areas of the north shore from inside the chalet or immerse yourself directly in the tranquil scenery by stepping onto the wrap-around deck. Sit back in an Adirondack chair, bask in the sunshine, and let life's cares melt away.



Explore a little further, and a peaceful shoreline, biking trails and abundant space for outdoor activities are all available right outside your door. From the large grassed community park in front, access the shore and navigate the shallow waters of the peninsula coastline or venture up the Hope River in the two kayaks provided. Try your hand at trout or bass fishing off the bridge in Stanley Bridge, or from the wharf join a deep sea fishing excursion on the Gulf of St. Lawrence and then cook up your catch in our fully equipped kitchen.

Raspberry Point and Hope River estuary to the east
And don't forget those sand dunes beckoning you from the wrap-around front deck! They are accessible via our kayaks and are an ideal spot for a private picnic lunch.



All this plus premier golf courses, fine dining, museums, art studios, craft shops and all the attractions of Cavendish less than 5 minutes away. At Seascape Chalet, you have the best of all worlds -- tranquility deep in the heart of the Island's north shore.

2BR/2 Bath cedar chalet comfortably accommodates 4-6 people
Especially suited for an unforgettable family vacation, a memorable romantic escape, or a relaxing "home away from home" to return to after exploring our Island by day, Seascape Chalet provides everything anyone could would want on a PEI summer vacation - relaxing, luxurious and comfortable accommodation located on a tranquil peninsula only minutes from Cavendish on the PEI north shore.

The spacious Great Room and adjoining sunroom provide for luxurious summer living, and the dining room and fully-equipped kitchen include everything you will need for a gourmet dinner of lobster or shellfish bought fresh from the wharf.



A propane fireplace with Island stone hearth provides romantic ambiance and plenty of warmth for those rare treasured mornings when the mist envelopes the lobster boats departing New London Bay.



And don't forget our fully equipped kitchen!

Our guests comment that we haven't forgotten anything, and that is because we have enjoyed spending time here ourselves. Thinking of a gourmet meal but lacking the inspiration? Browse our selection of Island recipe books for ideas. And what speaks to summer more than homemade ice cream? In between the inevitable trips to Cow's (a PEI institution), use our ice cream maker for your own delectable soft-serve ice cream in no time! If you are looking for something, we probably have it in our fully stocked kitchen. Salad spinner? We've got you covered!

At Seascape Chalet, our aim is to provide all the amenities of home that you would expect -- plus some pleasant surprises.

Master Bedroom with Ensuite Bath
Seascape Chalet offers two comfortable bedrooms, each with Queen sleigh bed, seating, and adjacent bath. Large closets and dressers ensure more than enough storage for all your belongings.

Our Master Bedroom features a soothing decor and ensuite bath. Wake up ready to hit the water – grab a beach towel from the closet, prepare a quick picnic lunch over breakfast, and you’re on your way!

Our ensuite master bath features a granite countertop, porcelain tile floor and relaxing decor. Our aim is relaxation for you on your PEI vacation, and we hope this will not disappoint!

Our second bedroom, airy and also with a Queen bed, is a crucial part of our eco-friendly method for cooling the chalet in summer. Simply prop open the doors with the stoppers provided, and open some of the numerous casement windows in the living room for a pleasant natural cooling effect throughout the chalet. It really does work!

Our Isabella room -- fit for a (Spanish) Queen!
Start your day with an invigorating shower in our “dragonfly” bath.
Our second bathroom is a public bath located just outside our second bedroom. It is available for everyone's use, including any additional guests who might be sleeping on the pull-out sofabed in our sunroom. Known as our "dragonfly" bath, named for the beautiful creatures that you may find on your morning walks and which are sure to bring a smile to your face. What new memories will you create today?


The sunroom is a perfect spot for relaxation.

This is one of my favourite spots. Curl up with a good book while soaking in the warmth and splendid water view of New London Bay and the protected lands of the PEI National Park.

In the sunroom, you will find our extensive collection of books for both adults and children.

A sofabed provides additional sleeping accommodations for two.

PEI North Shore Attractions

Enjoy your summer vacation on the north shore of PEI, Canada!

#1 Island destination in North America, Travel+Leisure Best Golf/Travel Destination in North America, Toronto Sun "an overlooked gem...for anyone who enjoys outdoor adventures in wide-open spaces", Canada.com

Why has PEI received these accolades? Read on to find out...

(Or browse our Activities QuickLINKS for an instant glimpse of some of the many possibilities that will make your visit to the Island a memorable one).

Become part of an annual revitalization ritual

Prince Edward Island comes alive during the summer months. Shaking off the cold blanket of winter, the Island collectively greets the arrival of Spring with a newfound sense of life and purpose that builds to a crescendo during summer, when the Island is its most vibrant. Nature and culture are celebrated, with music, dance, theatre, arts, crafts, and fine dining competing for your attention with an endless array of outdoor activities on land and sea. Summer on PEI is carefree, and the Cavendish north shore area has long been the hub of summertime excitement, engrossing Islanders and visitors alike in an annual ritual of revitalization.




Open spaces, pastoral seaside setting

It all begins with an appreciation of the spectacular natural setting. The shifting sands of the living dune environment extend for miles along the PEI north shore, providing shelter for endangered species such as the piping plover), a pristine environment for the study of unique geological formations and ecosystems, and miles upon miles of beaches for you to enjoy (find locations). Heritage roads cut through swaths of forest by the Island's early settlers provide glimpses through treed canopies of the rolling farmland and river vistas beyond.

But there are infinite ways to experience the Island. Whether it be hiking or cycling the well-known Confederation Trail that traverses the Island from tip to tip or some of the many smaller community trails (we recommend the nearby Breadalbane Nature Trail, which also provides a trailhead for the Confederation trail) or enjoying the spectacular views while teeing up on one of its teeing up on one of the nearby premier golf courses, trying your luck at deep sea fishing in the Gulf of St. Lawrence (such as nearby Graham's at the Stanley Bridge wharf), enjoying a sumptuous lobster supper -- that quintissential pei summertime feast -- experiencing uplifting jazz or classical music resonating throughout one of the Island's most distinctive churches, or the down-home Maritime sounds of a ceilidh ("KAY-lee") shaking the rafters of a local Stanley Bridge community hall, there is plenty to captivate a spirit set free a thousand miles from home. There are a million things to do on this "million acre farm," so we know that you will not be left wanting. And before you leave, you will surely have found some insight into the "Island way of life."




Seascape Chalet - tranquility in the heart of the PEI north shore

Fortunately, Seascape Chalet's ideal location allows guests to be as near to or as far from the action as you would like, so you really do have the best of all worlds. Located in the north shore fishing village of Stanley Bridge less than 5 minutes from PEI National Park beaches and all the attractions of Cavendish, Seascape Chalet allows guests to be in the thick of the action at a moment's notice. But the tranquil setting on a private peninsula jutting into picturesque New London Bay also provides you with the opportunity to beachcomb the peaceful shore, paddle a kayak up the Hope or Stanley Rivers or out to the dunes alongside the fishing boats embarking on their daily journey, or simply lay back and relax on the sundeck and against this scenic backdrop let all your cares drift away. Do it all or nothing -- after all, there's always next year...

Romantic Seaside Chalet

Looking for a romantic seaside retreat?

Seascape Chalet has just what you need.

Relax within the pastoral seaside vista from the wrap-around deck or enveloped in the casual elegance of our luxuriously appointed rooms.

Curl up with a book in our cozy sunroom, or sit back and enjoy the vista through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room.

The comfortable yet elegant decor will make you want to linger, but the inspiring landscape is sure to draw you outside.

Enjoy a daybreak or sunset stroll along the shore, explore the heritage roads in the area, and take in the beauty of the Stanley River leading to New London Bay.

The fully equipped chalet and scenic setting is perfect for relaxation and rejuvenation, yet its central location allows you to easily take in any of numerous attractions and events nearby.

Long for a meal of fresh lobster, oysters, scallops or mussels? Seafood can be purchased fresh from the dock at Stanley Bridge wharf only 3 minutes away. Or if you would prefer someone else to do the cooking, there is a range of casual and fine dining options within minutes.

Perhaps you would like to sample some of the Maritime's cultural traditions. Take in a ceilidh celebration of Celtic music at Stanley Bridge Hall. Several potters studios and craft shops are only minutes away. Or simply enjoy some of Philip's original stained glass creations at home!

Enjoy scenic beauty and miles of red sandstone shoreline just outside your door. Adjust to the rhythm of life on New London Bay as you take notice of the daily rituals of fishermen venturing out to sea, oyster farmers tending their pots, and blue heron wading in search of a meal.



The world-class white sand beaches of Cavendish provide yet another experience, and the barrier sand dunes that protect the north shore and provide the backdrop to our incredible seaside vista extend for miles. Cavendish beach is only 3 minutes away by car. Or stroll the surf at sunset for an unforgettable Island experience.



Seascape Chalet provides the best of both worlds -- a scenic setting tucked away on a private peninsula, yet within easy access to all of the attractions of the PEI north shore. Do as much or as little as you like! The choice is yours, and can be made at a moment's notice!

Family Summer Fun!

Planning a special family vacation?

-- There is something here for everyone!

Relax at home in our luxuriously appointed chalet. Bask in the warm glow of a radiant sunrise and perhaps catch a glimpse of our resident red fox darting across the field. Take in the views from our comfortably furnished living room or while relaxing in the sun and fresh air of the wrap-around front deck. Parents can allow the morning to linger and calmly get ready to set out for the day while the kids enjoy a game, activity, book or video from our extensive collection for children and adults.


Prepare a picnic lunch while the children play on the slide and swing set, invigorated by the fresh seaside air. Photograph the seaside views or the lupins in the front yard.

Explore the shoreline and open spaces of the tranquil peninsula. Snooze on the hammock while the kids examine their beachcombing treasures.


Play ball, fly a kite, or play frisbee with Rover in the acre of adjacent park area with plenty of room to roam. Bike or jog the miles of clay roads. Run over to the pier for boating, jetskiing, windsurfing, or parasailing. Visit a dinosaur museum on your way back.


Put in one of our kayaks at the shore and explore the sand dunes of the PEI National Park or the Hope River estuary in the other direction. Watch the fishing boats in the bay or the oyster farmers inspecting their bounty. Spot a blue heron spying you as you dig for clams along the shoreline.


And that's before you even get into your car!

By car, within 5 minutes, you can: build sandcastles or play in the surf at Cavendish beach, ride horseback along a wooded farmland trail, take in a ceilidh at Stanley Bridge Community Hall or tee up at one of three premier 18-hole golf courses. Revisit the "Anne" era at Green Gables house or Avonlea Village, enjoy a relaxed family outing of healthy recreation at my favorite 9 hole course, or satisfy your child's or teenager's sense of thrill at a nearby amusement park.


Buy fresh lobster or shellfish at Stanley Bridge wharf or sample the seafood at an oyster bar. Try PEI's famous "Cow's" ice cream and buy a T-shirt to commemorate the experience. Walk one of the many community trails over varied terrain, bike and explore the stunning seaside "Homeland Trail", or put in your fishing line at a nearby brook.


Have your postcards stamped at the Cavendish post office museum and check out the range of art and craftsmanship of PEI artisans. Take a deep-sea fishing charter and cook up your filletted catch in our fully-equipped kitchen. With the kids in bed, reflect on a wonderful day while relaxing in a luxurious decor featuring my own original seaside-inspired works in stained glass displayed exclusively for you.

And all this is barely scratching the surface -- drive further than 5 minutes, and the sky is the limit! There are many things to do on this little island -- try to take them all in, or just sit back, relax, and leave the rest til next year...

Think a family vacation must be a compromise? Not this time! Seascape Chalet is especially suited to families, because we've prepared it for you with our own family in mind! Kids are captivated, so adults can relax in our comfortable surroundings.

Read the review: "PEI: A recipe for family fun!".

But perhaps our guests say it best:

The past 11 days have been a great family vacation, and staying at your property had a lot to do with our tremendous experience. From the moment we first stepped into the chalet, we were "breathless," as the decor and scenery were unbelievable. Our two daughters enjoyed immensely the swings and toys during our stay as they both entertained them on a constant basis.

Philip & Dawn, the both of you should be very proud of your property, as the chalet is beautiful, and you have provided everything needed to make a family vacation a great experience. We will definitely be wanting to stay here again on our next visit to PEI.

The Bustard family,
Mississauga, Ontario

Autumn on PEI

Couples, golfers and naturalists will love PEI in the fall!

Autumn on PEI is idyllic for couples. Warm days, romantic nights in front of the fireplace, long walks on deserted beaches, perfect weather for hiking and biking, relaxed golf, spectacular foliage, and the feeling that you have the entire Island all to yourself! [Top 10 list]

Although PEI is known as a great summertime destination, more visitors are discovering what Islanders have long known -- that autumn on Prince Edward Island easily rivals summer in its attractions and may indeed be the best season to experience what the Island has to offer! Those with flexible vacation schedules, a love of long walks along deserted beaches, cycling or hiking in wide-open spaces amid rolling pastoral or oceanfront scenery, testing their golf skills against a different course each day, or simply driving leisurely along scenic backroads will find that they have to sacrifice nothing but a swim in order to enjoy spectacular fall foliage and the feeling that you have the entire Island to yourself!





Fall on PEI is a photographer's heaven and a cyclist's dream. The Island takes on a different aura in autumn, as the changing colors of the season transform our scenic vistas. The reds, oranges and yellows of deciduous trees juxtaposed with evergreens, warm-hued grain and potato fields and blue sky and sea make our fall foliage stand out in a region of the world known for its autumn brilliance.

Cyclists visiting PEI for the first time are often surprised to find that its low elevation can translate into such undulating terrain. For those who enjoy this challenge, the north shore region offers great dirt road paths on heritage roads -- some of the oldest on the Island -- which are especially vibrant in autumn. For flatter terrain, there is the Gulf Shore Way in the PEI National Park which provides scenic seaside views, and the 400 km long Confederation Trail which cyclists can travel from tip to tip along a former railway bed which features easily manageable grades and views of the interior of the Island. Hunter River, Breadalbane, and Kensington are the nearest trail heads.

For hikers, there are many community trails, including the nearby Homestead Trail and the Breadalbane Nature Trail, which provide seaside and riverside views, respectively. Other recommended short trails nearby include the Cape Tryon Trail, Devil's Punchbowl Trail, Trout River Community Park Trail, and the Dunk River Trail, but you also can't go wrong walking some of the nearby heritage roads in autumn.

You don't need to miss a ceilidh, lobster supper, or romantic walk on the beach. Sacrifice nothing more than a swim and bring an extra layer of clothing (see weather) to call Cavendish beach, your favorite golf course, or virtually the entire Island your own. Take advantage of our discounted rates, warm September days and crisp evenings spent lounging in front of the fireplace, scenic vistas with a complex palate of colors during our extended fall foliage season, and full slate of fall activities that continue well into October.

There is something for everyone on PEI during autumn, including some of our most popular annual festivals and events (more here), such as Fall Flavours and the PEI International Shellfish Festival. Or create your own discovery of PEI's arts and heritage, among the many sites including the nearby PEI Farmer's Bank, a national historic site due to its influence on the credit union movement in North America and the adjacent Doucet House, one of the oldest on PEI and which provides insight into Acadian culture.

There is still much to do on PEI after summer turns to autumn, so check your calendars and Escape to the Island this fall!
