Blue Crest Cottages — Attraction in North Rustico

We absolutely LOVED this place. I've seen some of the other reviews here, which give poor ratings, but honestly, that wasn't our experience at all so I'm not sure what's going on there. We rented Cottage B, it had two good sized bedrooms (one King size bed in one room, the other room has two doubles or twins, I can't usually tell the difference), a large living/dining room with a pull-out couch, a good sized kitchen with stove/oven/large refrigerator/freezer, and a private toilet and shower and sink. The view is AMAZING, you have a large porch with comfy, cool chairs and a little table so you can sit outside and sip tea/hot chocolate/coffee and watch the ocean. ||||There's a TV with cable inside, and a pull-out couch, so there are four beds in Cottage B The cottages all have rustic wood paneling, giving the place a warm, cozy feeling. There's a large table with four chairs, and you can eat your meals in front of the window taking in the view. The beach is a two minute walk just across the small access road. The grounds have a large grassy area for kids to play on and there's a little jungle-gym type thing for them as well - there's also a basketball hoop. I honestly don't remember anything about a pool, however, I wasn't interested in a pool, I went to the beach, so I didn't inquire or pay attention. ||||One person mentions having to clean their own cottage ---- WHAT? This is not true, you don't have to clean your own place and there is no charge if you don't - they have housekeeping. I believe there is something about the possibility of being charged a damage fee, if the place is damaged, so perhaps that was the confusion??? At any rate, I only cleaned up after myself in the polite way, I didn't houseclean, and I certainly wasn't charge a fee. ||||The cottage was in perfect condition. There is also an A/C. The staff/owners were all perfectly lovely and very helpful. I stayed here with my teenage son and he loved it as much as I did. We will most definitely be staying here again....

We stayed for four nights on our first time in PEI. Blue Crest wasn't a "destination" in itself, but it was a great base for our travels. We had a 2 bedroom cottage. Some thoughts: |- The owners are great hosts: very kind, friendly and passionate. Our door lock broke and was quickly repaired by the owner. |-The location is perfect, close (but not too close) to Cavendish and all parts of PEI national park, and in the center of the island if you want to explore either the eastern or western shores.|-Don't believe other reviews that state you need to clean the cottage prior to check out. This is NOT the case. There is a sign on the inside of the cottage that indicates this, but this is from the prior owners and NO LONGER APPLIES. (Note to owners: remove the sign.)|-Cottages are comfortable; they could definitely use a renovation but I'm sure the owners are working on it. Lousy towels, and some smelled like they were sitting around too long without being freshened. Shower water temperature was hard to modulate; I hereby decree that all hotels need to eliminate the separate hot and cold water faucets for a single lever. Only one A/C unit, in the living room; it might be hard to cool off both bedrooms on a hot day. |-Great pool, and especially, great hot tub; this is an amenity not found in many PEI...
