River Meadow Camp Cottage

River Meadow Camp Cottage is perched on a low bank of the Grand River, an estuary of the Malpeque Bay, and is tucked into a sheltered corner lot where you can stay in your bathing suit all day and basks in the sun from sunrise to sunset.

Under giant birches, River Meadow Camp Cottage has been built out from the bus motor home with the addition of a bedroom with a queen size bed, a living room, a half-bath and a shaded brick patio with lounge chairs facing the river.

There is a small cabin at the back of the main cottage which includes: shower, toilet, sink, washer and dryer as well as a set of bunk beds.

The shaded patio next to the riverbank offers a lovely place to read, snooze or sip a glass of wine, while watching the sunset or the shore birds.

The tide is out most of the day and young children can splash around in bathtub warm water up to their knees and chase minnows and hermit crabs.
For those who like to have a refreshing swim, the tide is high in the morning but most people explore the island during the day and visit the National or Provincial Parks for swimming on PEI famous white sand beaches.
At the cottage shore shoes (water shoes or old sneakers) are recommended to protect tender feet from the occasional oyster shell. Sometimes there is seaweed (depending on spring storms) in the small cove. We have a boardwalk over this seaweed to take you out to the sand.

The bus kitchen is fully stocked and has an electric stove, dishwasher, fridge, a dinette booth, a day bed and a half bath. The motor home part of the cottage has a ceiling height of 6ft. If you are taller than 5' 10" and you are the chief cook this cottage ... will not suit you ... Also if you do not like camping and hanging around outdoors, or have easily bored teenagers who expect privacy, then this cottage ... is not for your family. The main part of the cottage is of standard building height.

This camp cottage is not fancy (no granite or steel for those who need modern and sleek), but it has everything a young family or a group of friends need for comfort and convenience with the added pleasure of total privacy, lots of lawn space for kids and puppies, no vehicle traffic and the river outside your door. Here you will be immersed in the sights and sounds of nature.

Sleeping areas:

1. Bedroom with a queen size bed.

2. The front room has a single bed. Sometimes the youngest child sleeps on the couch.

3. There is a another single bed up in the bus and there is a sliding door to close this area off at night. The bus bed has access to the half-bath but a bit of duck and cover is necessary to go out the back of the bus. This sleeping area is not suitable for mobility challenged seniors or very tall adults. If these folks sleep in the main bedroom with the queen size bed, they will have a very comfortable stay.

4. Behind the cottage, there is a small cabin with a washer and dryer and a full bath with a shower, sink, and toilet. There is a set of bunk beds in this small cabin where teens (not pre-teens ... they will be too scared to stay out in the cabin by themselves) or young adults can sleep. Teenagers, unless the family enjoys camping, may not be happy spending time at this cottage. Children will LOVE this cottage. Couples enjoying a quiet romantic get-away will also love this cottage.

There is Satellite WiFi service and a 45 in. smart TV with
Amazon Prime and Samsung TV. We also offer a selections of movies for the DVD player.

This cottage offers you the outdoor beauty of a campground setting but with the comforts, convenience and and privacy of a cottage. On a daily and weekly basis we make every effort to control the insect and mosquito population with discrete and safe spraying and bug zappers. This camp has a few mosquitos at dusk but there are seldom any around during the day.
This camp cottage is registered with the Prince Edward Island Tourist Bureau.
