“Best hosts! Beautiful Island!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011

We stayed in a cottage (2 kids, 2 adults) for one week. Nicely tucked away among trees, and a nice stream nearby equiped with a row boat, paddle boat and life jackets. The hosts, Glen and Joan were superb! Glen gave us a map of Kings County (East side of the Island) and indicated various spots for the family to visit. We went to almost each spot, and were never dissapointed. By far the best trip we've been on! Fave locale was Greenwich National Park.

Room Tip: If 4 people or less, one bedroom cottage is sufficient!

“Lovely setting, cute cottages”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2011

We stayed in a cottage and were very comfortable. It has a very usable kitchen: apt. sized fridge, small four burner stove with oven and microwave plus all the cookware, utensils and tableware you will need. The bathroom is very small, but clean and bright, the bedroom is large with 2 queen beds and there is cable television. There is no a/c but it's not really needed, there are windows on all sides offering plenty of cross breezes. There's also a screened in porch overlooking the stream. The owner, Glenn, is very knowledgable about the area and is happy to make recommendations. Glenn is also an avid birder and can organize birding expeditions and has some fantastic photos he's taken of birds in the area.

“A good place to get away from the crowd but still be close to stuff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2011

We spent several days here in the off season. We stayed in the rustic cabins, not the B&B. The cabin we were in (I think they are all similar) seems to be a vintage shack that has been nicely upgraded; the floor, bathroom, and kitchen seemed relatively new. It is nestled among trees, has a screened in porch, small but clean and renovated bathroom with lots of hot water, a 1-room combined kitchen / living room / dining room with table and couch, and a separate sleeping room with 2 double beds. The cabin was comfortable and nicely appointed, but it IS a cabin, so if you are expecting luxury, stay in the B&B. We did not see the B&B rooms but we went into the house and it was clean, and of course, very nice. The cabin is rustic but you still get satellite TV, hot water, and wireless internet. I felt guilty doing some work from the cabin via internet. The only real complaint I can come up with about the cabin is that the TV is on top of the fridge, so you have to look up into the corner to watch TV. I am not sure where else they could put the TV, and splurging for a flat screen to bolt to the wall seems excessive in the low-rate cabin. The cabin was perfect for 2 but might feel a bit cramped with 4 or more. It rained while we were there and we did lots of beach walking and there were many mosquitoes so we really appreciated the screened-in porch as a place to change shoes and dump our gear. The view from the porch is of a lawn, trees, and the lake/pond. The cabins are all side by side, separated by a few trees, so I imagine that if the place were fully booked then you might hear more noise from the other guests, but we were alone so it was like our own private cottage. Some have complained about the mosquitoes but if you stay in the woods near a lake in the shade, what do you expect? We covered up and enjoyed paddling the canoe up and down the little lake with its crystal clear reflections and views of the forest. It is small so this is not an expedition but a 30-45 minute run-about. They provide life jackets, which is a nice feature. The owners of the B&B were very helpful in suggesting things to do and providing maps, and were always around to meet our needs. We saw a fox and other wildlife during our stay, and spent some time walking the nature trails (I call them that b/c they are not really hiking in the climbing sense, but strolling through a mowed path through the forest and open meadows). It was very pleasant but bring bug spray if you are there in mosquito season. When we were there it rained all week and had been raining a lot before we arrived and was cool so the bugs were out. We still enjoyed it immensely. This place is a bit off the beaten path but PEI is so small that you are still just a short scenic drive from many key sites/ beaches / views. I can imagine that during the busy season this place feels like a refuge from the crowds. If you need anything there is a small town just down the road, and a bit further up the road there are more towns with grocery stores, etc.

Room Tip: The cabin is a good way to save money b/c you can make your own meals.

My husband and I just spent 3 days at Forest and Stream Cottages.. we were seeking a quiet friendly peaceful spot yet close to golfing and beaches and sightseeing...that is what we experienced here...I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a country environment without the noises and stresses of our hectic busy lives..We were sooooo close to everything yet in the midst of the quiet wilderness...so tranquil...We will be putting this on of top 10 list.

“The location and ambiance of Forest and Stream make for a delightful stay.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2010

The location of Forest and Stream is excellent for touring the eastern shore of PEI. Glenn did all he could to tailor his recommendations of the island for our interests. He was always there when we had questions yet never intruded on our privacy. He even helped us solve a computer problem.
The Kozy Cottage was just that, a bit small for a stay longer than a couple of days. The porch was not really appealing to use and the closeness of the 5 cabins didn't afford much outside privacy although there was a row of conifers between each cabin. However, the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was adequate for cooking and the woodland trails that led to the Confederation Trail was a big plus. Although we didn't take advantage of the lake and the use of the boats, I could see that it would be a good feature for some.
We had no problem with insects, the weather for the week was about ideal with only one day of real rain, and the people of PEI were the nicest and friendliest we've run across.
The produce from the local farm stands was excellent, as was the real food at the restaurant in Murray Harbour. If you are looking for lots of touristy glitz, then this part of PEI is not for you. Come for the people and nature and you won't be disappointed.
I'd stay at Forest and Stream again.
