There are several scenic routes from both the Confederation Bridge and the ferry. Here are the routes that we feel are the most direct routes to our cottages.
Please drive safely. If you should get turned around, please give us a call, or if stopping and asking for directions tell them you are going to the old drive-in theatre property in Cavendish or it’s near the Cows Ice Cream at the Cavendish Boardwalk. (Most Islanders know where at least one of those are located.)
