If you can book the Tower Room, do it!! It was such a unique experience for my daughter and I. The room was very cozy, what must have been 20 ft ceilings, the clawfoot bathtub, oh my!! Just icing on the cake! We had our windows open all night for a light sea breeze, and slept to the sounds of the wave. The continental breakfast was delicious, and very efficiently, all packed for us in the morning. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Thanks for a great stay-cation!!

St. Peters Harbour Lighthouse

Reviewed By FoodieCrozet - Crozet, United States

You drive and drive down a red dirt road. Potholes. No signage. But then you find a tiny parking lot. A beautifully restored lighthouse. And an amazing get-away beach. We walked around the corner toward St Peters Bay, past the broken post ghosts, and it was perfect. So shhh!

My daughter does crafts with sea glass from Lake Ontario and while we were in PEI we went to Point Prim Lighthouse to see a demonstration of the sea glass collected.in that area. We met the nicest couple Goldie and Gilbert ..He was demonstrating a beautiful lamp using very soft opaque coloured sea glass.. Goldie had a nice pamphlet she had made on light houses. They have one.of three round lighthouses on the island at this location. Goldie and Gilbert had gotten married at this location in the ,70's.. We got tickets for the lighthouse but because of the steep stairs was unable to go up.. They have a beautiful gift shop with all kinds of unique one of a kind items. To my surprise they sold PEI rum cake. I purchased this for s friend and am waiting to see how it compares to the Caribbean ones. Washrooms were spotless and we changed into bathing suits to go into the water for ses shells. Highly recommend.. we spent a few hours there.Everyone very friendly..
