Private entry to the room. Balcony overlooking the river.

Mariette Canada

There was nothing we didn't like. Everything was just lovely! The hosts are very friendly and welcoming people. The room was immaculately clean, and the view of the water was perfect! Breakfast was good and on time, and the place is close enough to both Cavendish and Charlottetown that neither is too far a drive. I would 100% stay here again!

Grace Canada

We adored the host family and really appreciated their helpful advice about the area. Our room was large with all the amenities we needed and had a fantastic view!! The location was perfect for our visit in PEI.

Cheryl United States

The rooms were wonderful and the breakfast was the best we'd had on our trip. Not only delicious but beautifully presented. The hosts were friendly and more than accommodating. Would definitely recommend The Lookout Inn and hope to return soon and spend more time on PEI.

Shirlee Slovenia

Just about everything about this place. A warm welcome from the lovely couple who run it. The view across the river from our room was absolutely astonishing. I and if you are keen on the history of Anne of Green Gables, it’s the closest place you can get to the two museums.

Simon United Kingdom

everything. Location, hospitality, breakfast, Chip the dog, Hey You the bunny. Breakfast in the room was compliments of covid, but the quality, taste of food .... exceptional - neve ever in my life I have it sooooooo gooooooooooood.

Barb Canada

Friendly reception, amazing choice of breakfast which was delivered to the room, housecoats to use in the room which is an example of the personal touches these hosts have thought of. Direct access to room from outside which made in/out access to the car easy. We got an upgrade to our room as there was a larger room free on the mid-week stay we had. Highly recommend this property.

Kathy Canada

Fantastic hosts. Breakfasts couldn’t have been better. Large bedroom with all the amenities you would want or need. Comfy bed, large bathroom, well decorated. Close to some excellent restaurants.

Doug Canada

Breakfast was outstanding and so convenient delivered to our room!

Medea Canada

As a world traveler, I have critically reviewed many accommodations and never awarded a 10 Score until now. Beautifully situated, our upper floor room overlooked a small lake. The hosts provided a warm welcome & were very accommodating. In these days of Covid 'Breakfast in a Brown Paper Bag' the breakfast delivered to our room was fantastic. The Menu provided a large choice of items from Eggs Benedict to Full English which my wife & I enjoyed. My only suggestion would be to provide Netflix for the guests. Otherwise still a solid 10/10 Score. Highly recommended.

The Lookout Inn is a 2 story building, part century home & part new addition. There are 2 Queen & 2 King rooms on the upper floor as well as 2 King Rooms on the main floor. Each room has a private bathroom and is individually decorated while maintaining a comfortable and modern feel. Numerous amenities are provided and we encourage requests if there is something that we or you have forgotten. Hot Breakfast is included with your rate & can be delivered to your room or enjoyed in the dining room. Each room has a view of the beautiful tidal Clyde River where guests often enjoy watching hawks and eagles feed along with the various birds. There is a deck off the upper level that all guests are welcome to utilize during their stay to relax and lounge, enjoy a meal or converse with your group or other guests. There is free parking available to all guests on the property adjacent to the Inn and our garage can be utilized on a first come first serve basis for parking of motorcycles and/or bicycles. We welcome your pets but only in specific rooms that are pet friendly for allergy reasons. Please request a pet room as guests arriving with pets without prior knowledge will be turned away.
We are a big blended family of 9! James and I spend most of our time with the children and working on our home and business. Our children range in ages from 6 years (Feb 2022) to 23! We have been blessed with 5 girls and 2 boys and one beautiful grand-daughter. Meeting our special people becomes some of our guests favorite part of their stay. We have been blessed to have guests return and watch our family grow as we in turn get to share in all of the changes with them since their last stay. Running the B&B truly is a family affair here. We all thoroughly enjoy greeting and welcoming guests into our home/business. It is our pleasure to help guests with all of their travel plans and answer any questions that might arise from your time here. James is born and raised in PEI and there is not much he doesn't know about this beautiful island. This is our passion and what we love.
New Glasgow is small but holds all you need! There are three wonderful restaurants,The Mill, The Preserve Company and the famous New Glasgow Lobster Suppers. All 3 restaurants overlook the beautiful Clyde River and offer various choices to suit everyone's tastes! The Mill is open for dinner and provides a intimate spot for couples although children are welcome. The Preserve Company is a business with many faces though as there is a extensive list to do there. Enjoy a meal, take a walk through the gardens, visit the butterfly house or make a stop and pick up some locally made jams. The New Glasgow Suppers has a reputation all to its own. An all you can eat lobster dinner. We have guests that come specifically just to eat here! The Toy Factory is within walking distance and is such a charming toy store where you can discover your inner child! Dan and Kathy offer toys for all ages. Don't miss a round of golf at the challenging Glasgow Hills Golf Course which also overlooks the beautiful Clyde River. Nearby you will find Glasgow Glen Farms where you can pick up gouda cheese in a variety of flavours. They also offer stone fired pizzas, baked goods and snacks daily.
