Had a great time during the music festival. Hoping the same people are back waiting to hear about cottages again thru sister in law. Met a lot of great people. The grounds were alive between neighbours at cottages. Great bunch of young adults  next to us. We have been meeting up with that  group the last number of years. Hope to see us all back together this year to the Taylor’s, Mahoney, MacDonalds and Beatons! Cheers to great neighbours!  Looking forward to seeing the staff and being in the grounds again.

Family, friends reunion for cavendish music festival

We shared a 3 bedroom cottage with my daughter’s family and loved the proximity to the pool. The cottage was a good size for the six of us and the children loved their stay there. The pool was clean and a good size, with chairs around the deck. The washroom in the cottage was good, with bath and shower, air conditioning and wifi were great.

Very nice experience

Myself, adult son n his girlfriend enjoy our one night stay here. We stayed in the office building which is such a nice change from the franchise motels. The staff were very friendly, rooms where quaint, clean n had everything we needed. The Continental breakfast was great as well as the location.

Great overnight stay!

Our family of parents and two teenagers stayed at Shining Waters for 5 nights.  Our three bedroom, two full washroom,  two floor cottage was the nicest one that we have ever stayed at!  Just having the three bedrooms and two full washrooms (including a jet tub in the ground floor one) was wonderful!  The cottage also had a full kitchen, utensils, tv with satelite channels, and a barbecue on its porch (with chairs and a picnic table)  Towels were provided and you could exchange them each day if you chose to.  You have the option of having housekeeping come in to clean, but we didn't.   

Other facilities include two large pools (but one is still not operational, free parking next to the cottage, fire pits, and a children's play structure.   There is free wifi, but it wasn't great, and usually only worked while on the porch.  The office staff were welcoming and helpful whenever we needed assistance. 

The location is also fantastic, in the heart of Cavendish, across from the tourist information centre, and walking distance to shops, restaurants, PEI National Park, and a Tim Horton's.  It is just a drive down the the road to beaches,  Green Gables, a grocery store and many other eateries and attractions.  Even Charlottetown, Summerside, North Rustico and Brackley Beach are all a 30 minute drive or less away.   

Our family had a great stay in our cottage at Shining Waters Resort, and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again on our next visit to PEI.  

Nicest Cottage that we have ever stayed in!

we took our granddaughter with her mom on her first visit to PEI and these little yellow cottages were the best place to stay.. so close to everything we wanted to see in cavendish and clean .  had a little play area for Bria also.

a little trip away

Wonderful stay in our adorable little cottage. I’m pretty sure my mother wanted to stay and live there. The perfect little home for her. Best sleep I’ve had in a long time in the comfortable bed. Absolutely no complaints. If we ever come back to PEI (hope we will) I will definitely stay here again

So delightful

Well this is my third attempt on a review. We have been renting from this establishment for approximately 10 years for the Cavendish Beach Festival. Unfortunately I have made several attempts to contact owner to discuss a few things. As we have been great patrons. However due to a situation unable to reach the owner. We were a family of 15. Due to circumstance that we had no control over as it is a communal community during the music festivities. We are all professional people from different levels of government. A few bad apples have made this a nightmare for our family. As the maintenance guy that was on the grounds last year had issues.  Over a community fire pit that was open to approx 50 other people. And unfortunately our family took the fall for it. We always book for five nights, however leave after the forth night. That gives the cleaning staff plenty of time.  The cleaning Staff are amazing women. Who we have the utmost respect for as it is a lot of work. We would do everything possible to make sure our mess was packed in blue bags and put out every night/morning to make it easier on the staff to pick up.  Our group of family would play and entertain other concert going  children and adults during the day. We had have done this for years. I have made several attempts to contact the owner to no success. As being punished or blames for something we had no part in. But unfortunately got the blame. Our family had even helped the cleaning staff clean up after young children who unfortunately got sick on the grounds four cabins down. We actually felt bad for the ladies.  We always make sure our rooms are cleaned, dishes get done before we leave as it is the right thing to do. We wood sweep and even washed floors if we had access to a mop. We would have the beds stripped before we left to help out cleaning staff. We seen things during our stay that were not appropriate but we mind our own business. Had no part in. The family was always respectful and respectable to the ladies and other families around us. We made sure everyone had eaten, drank water and had made great memories and families. We always recommend this establishment to friends and family visiting pei. But we are distraught and disappointed in how we are being treated for this years music festival. All of the regulars that go have been texting and asking are we returning. As most of these neighbours have become extended family to us. So if the owner of this establishments could reach out to me for a discussion, I would gladly appreciated. To the Maloney, Taylor’s, the macDonalds, the great beautiful women from moncton. Unfortunately we don’t believe we will be back. Please have a sociable for us. Hopefully we will have the opportunity to speak to the owner and return. We will miss playing volleyball, sing alongside, our barbecue  with each other. It will saidly be missed. So anyone using the fire pit between cabin 30 and 31 becareful cause even though the fire pit is for approx 10 different cabins to use. You may get blamed for something you have not done. For the kiddies we met last year we all loved playing soft ball, red rover, dance off, sing offs, and listening to your stories you will be dearly missed this year. Fingers crossed we get to speak to Mr wood and some of us may possibly get back to see you! Cheers to great memories and friendships! Hope to see you all again another time! Just be warned that if they don’t like the look of the fire pit you can be blamed for something you have no part of.  This is our group plus others who also stayed at the cabins. We are a group of teachers, ahl hockey players, social workers, and federal government. The neighbours and the kids. So we are or where not a rowdy bunch. Or disruptive to the cabin areas. When others came who were younger or underage they would be asked to leave our area as again we didn’t want no trouble or put our jobs at risk!  The range of ages in our group was 24-56. In this picture it was groups staying at the cabin. So how can they pick one family to say we were disrespectful of the grounds or the rules. And the staff there are over 100 cabins on this ground. And Doris if she didn’t see me in one cabin new were to find me within the grounds. And if there was people that wasn’t in our party trying to join are party was asked to leave by myself or the other older adults in respect for the grounds and the fact we have been going to same spot for 10 years!

Family and friends reunion

Pros: Location within walking distance to Tim Hortons, Dunes and Visitors Centre.  Lodge Room 13.  Quiet comfortable rooms with A/C.  Full breakfast included fresh pastries, eggs, ham, assortment of breads, cereal, yogurt, fruit, coffee and tea.  Large living room with couches for seating.  Beautiful views from wrap around porch.  One of the quietest stays I have ever had.

Cons: Steep staircase to second floors where rooms are. No in-room coffee maker or mini fridge.  Older building means creaky floors.  At the time of our visit only one pool was open.

Lodge Room 13

We had never visited PEI and decided to stay at this Inn.  Doris was lovely and greeted us and made us feel at home.  Along with our 2 friends were were the only ones at the Inn.  I felt like I had stepped back in time.  The parlour was adorable, the grounds were lovely and our room, (yes it was a little small compared to what we are used to)  was comfortable and quaint.  I wish we had more time there as everyone was so nice.  In the morning just before breakfast the power went out but we were still able to have our fruit and muffins.  Doris gave us some great information on where to see and what to visit, she was just so helpful.  It is so close to everything and we really enjoyed the Shining Waters Inn.

A very cute and lovely Inn

We have stayed here many times and live the resort. One pool was open, which was great. Check-in was contactless, which was a plus. Definitely needs a little upgrading with leaky taps and squeaky beds and internet still leaves a lot to be desired but we would stay here again. Love the staff and the location.
