#1 on my bucket list✔️ engaged ✔️ ???? one of the best days of my life

Richard Filion

Unorganised. Simply a tourist trap. Unless you are a sold fan of Anne of Green Gable, you will be disappointed. We got there, couldn't get the horse/cart ride, it was reserved for a bus of tourists arriving. No map of the facility. We didn't know what there was to visit. We looked around a bit. Couldn't really see anything of interest other than the house and a barn. You can pay 6$ to go check AofGG artifacts in the house. They have a gift boutique attached to a cuisine/café salon. I saw a tray of authentic gingerbread cookies and ask if i could get a couple or buy a couple (there was no price sign) and they refused; this plate of cookies was for that tourist bus. Once the tourist bus left, there were some cookies left and again I asked politely if i could buy 4 of them so my parents could try them. Got denied again.... Their claim to fame is "we have the most artifacts from the author of the book". The feeling I got is this is a privately owned establishment riding the Green Gables theme the best they can but doing a poor job at it. Fact is... Any place you visit relating to Anne of the Green Gable in PEI is more about the author and where the inspiration comes from and not the actual book. If you are not a true green gable fan then my advice is skip this place and go visit the national museum instead (ran by the government). You will get a guided tour and much better info.

(Translated) A scam!!!! Do not go to this place! Well maybe you are a fan. But otherwise there are many other things to do like sleeping, enjoy your tent or shouted indemnities to the person who decides to go to this serious place! A real waste of time and it costs too much! (Original) Une arnaque!!!! N'allez pas a cet endroit! Bon peut-être que vous êtes un(e) fan. Mais sinon y'a plein d'autres choses a faire comme dormir, profiter de votre tente ou encore crié des indemnités au personne qui décide d'aller a cet endroit sérieux!! Une vrai perte de temps pis sa coûte trop cher!

maxine chrystie

How lovely. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. I got the Anne of Green Gables book here for my mum here as a great reminder of a lovely trip.

Chris Lattimore

boring

Deanna C

It's ok. Matthew's carriage ride is simply a ride through the field. We took a half hour ride and it was ok but we saw more from the car. The carriage ride was $65! There's only a gift shop and a house there that you pay a separate fee to walk through.

Lawrence Haddlesey

Was pretty interesting. But I must say that the carriage ride for 120 bucks would've been nice yet they only take cash for that. So we didnt want to have to leave and come back again.

AYAKA OHKAWA (大川綾香)

(Translated) The home of Montgomery's aunt is now a museum and a home where she lives. A facility with a souvenir shop. The director is a relative of Montgomery. There is still a room where Montgomery celebrated the wedding. What was used at that time was also left as it was. Actually touch the iron It was so heavy that the women at that time I realized again that housework was super hard work. The garden was also nice. Redhead Ann is a place that we call romantic sparkling lakes. When I went on a trip to Prince Edward Island, I stopped by Redhead Entour. (Original) モンゴメリさんの叔母の家をミュージアムと現在でも住まわれている家になっています。 お土産屋さんも併設された施設。 館長はモンゴメリさんの親族の方。 モンゴメリさんが結婚式を挙げたお部屋も残されています。 当時使われていたものもそのまま残してありました。 実際にアイロンを触らせてもらい 持ったところ、ものすごく重く、当時の女性たちは 家事が超重労働だったことが改めて実感できました。 お庭も素敵でした。 赤毛のアンではロマンチックに輝く湖水と名付けている場所です。 プリンスエドワード島に旅行に行ったとき、赤毛のアンツアーで立ち寄りました。

Paula Drew

Pretty disappointing

Ashley K

Go here if you have read the book and are a total fan. It'll be boring and meaningless otherwise. Not worth the detour even when it's free and you have nothing to do. You can't even see the author's actual house in this park. The trails had some charm but I'm sure you can find better on the island (e.g. Bubbling Springs trail, Winter River).

Pily Luján

(Translated) I am watching Anne's series and I have been captivated by the story, but out of curiosity and to get deeper into its environment, I looked at maps and it seemed incredible to see that this place is real, to know virtually the places to visit Anne, her farm in Green Gables, and seeing that there is a museum with her things, her clothes, and the interior of the house has seemed really exciting to me, only those of us who are deep in Anne's history can appreciate every detail, I hope one day to be able to physically visit Green Gabels and all its surroundings !!! A virtual hug to all those who have made the existence of this museum possible .. a thousand stars for you ???????????????????????????????????????? (Original) Estoy viendo la serie de Anne y me ha cautivado la historia, pero por curiosidad y por adentrarme más en su entorno busque en el maps y me ha parecido increíble ver que ese lugar es real, conocer virtualmente los lugares que visitar Anne, su granja en Green Gables, y ver que hay un museo con sus cosas, su ropa, y el interior de la casa me ha parecido realmente emocionante, sólo a quienes estamos adentrados en la historia de Anne podemos apreciar cada detalle, ¡¡¡ Espero algún día poder visitar físicamente Green Gabels y todos sus alrededores!!! Un abrazo virtual a todos los que han hecho posible la existencia de este museo .. mil estrellas para uds ????????????????????????????????????????

Rhonda Marie

Wonderful

Emily

Beautiful place, very lovely.

Ryan Milone

A bit of fun to walk around in, a fair bit of info to learn about author. Didn’t remember too much about books, so it wasn’t quite as enjoyable for me, but it would likely be better for others. A good bucket list item, but you can probably skip it if you want to save some time and money.

Miss T

(Translated) Very interesting to visit the house and the environment which inspired Montgomery. A little disappointing carriage ride: no link with the life of the author or her characters. (Original) Très intéressant de visiter la maison et l'environnement qui ont inspiré Montgomery. Balade en calèche un peu décevante: aucun lien avec la vie de l'autrice ou de ses personnages.

Hayrullah “HY” Elmas

Lots of history

Albert Kim

Yeah don't waste time going here. Tourist trap.

Scott Goossen

the best

Mark Berkeley

Definitely a must visit even if you are not familiar with Lucy Maud Montgomery and her written works.

PASTOR RICK JONES

So rich with tradition and history

NICK GILENO

Save your time and money. Totally a useless visit. Relative of old deceased author has the personality of a mop. Very avious she only wants your money. Surprised that NCL makes this place an excursion destination. Totally a waste of time

이송현

(Translated) I am very kind. I do not know how long it is. I do not know how long the carriage is, but let me recreate the carriage that Matthew was on. He took me to the shining lake. Good. I want to go again. (Original) 엄청친절해용 그리고 여기사는사람있어요 개신기함 ㄷㄷ 켐벨씨 엄청 친절하셔유 진짜... 마차는 얼만지모르겠는데 매튜가 타던 마차 재현해줘요 빛나는호수 데려다주고 그러더라구요. 좋았어요. 또가고싶어요 엄마랑

Isabelle Tremblay

The experience was ok, if you love this, then this is for you. Sighting is great.

Kathleen Dainna Thomas Howell

(Translated) It's exciting to know that there is a place for this great series, I loved, if not ever see this place, but we now have good pictures that can lead us to this place. (Original) Es emocionante saber que existe un lugar a esta Gran Serie, me encanto, no se si vea este lugar alguna vez, pero lo bueno que ahora tenemos fotos que nos pueden llevar a este lugar.

Gur Simar Deep Singh

If someone's visiting PEI and have interest in knowing about LM Montgomery's life and her books. This is a must visit.

Gail Titus

Interesting family history of L.M.Montgomery.

Mirella Delgado

Beautiful place!

Annie Bourassa

(Translated) Paying visit of the interior of the house for a maximum of 15 minutes. Tiny trail behind. A course and a horse. Nothing be worth the time and travel. The main draw is the souvenir shop filled with items reminiscent of the era show. (Original) Visite payante de l'intérieur de la maison pour 15 minutes max. Minuscule sentier derrière. Une cours et un cheval. Rien be valant le temps et déplacement. Le principal attrait est la boutique de souvenirs remplie d'objets rappelant l'émission de l'époque.

Daniel Blanchard

Nice to see if you're into Anne's story. Authentic and full of littles stories, pictures and stuff. A nice lady gives us a quick story when you get in, horse and buggy rides available, nice walk on the property and in a short Forest trail. Worth the stop!

Eva Siu

Nice place for tourist. It's a "MUST GO" place for the fans that can track what's in the book.

Yoshihiro Aoyagi

(Translated) A place related to Montgomery, the original author of Redhead Anne. I enjoyed it. (Original) 赤毛のアンの原作者、モンゴメリーさんの関連した場所。楽しめました。

Stephan Martin

Beautiful location. A must stop for any fan of Lucy Maud Montgomery. Nearest place to eat, though is Kensington

Adam Rothwell

Was an ok museum. You are given a brief history lesson after u pay admission. Then you walk through the house. See a lot of artifacts. Then ur done. Maybe 15 min. Horse carriage rides are available. Starting at $75 per person

Mithun

Beautiful place.

Eric Viklund

My wife had this on her to do list before we toured the island. It was a good place to visit and get acquainted with the spirit of Lucy Maud Montgomery. The walk through the small house showed many different artifacts from the past that were a part of our growing up lives. Took a walk on Lovers Lane to celebrate our 50th anniversary.

Hally Rob

This is where Lucy M Montgomery wrote Anne la maison pignon vert. It is not Anne of green gable. Nice to see the old book, rooms...

Dylan Iovene

Unfortunately we got here after it closed but was able to get some nice pictures of the house itself. I don't suggest coming after they close as we were yelled at by a woman inside just for being on the property even though the museum doors were unlocked and wide open, the gate was open, and their was no signage saying you could not be there. She was incredibly rudenl to us and another family who were unaware we couldn't even look at the house after 5.

Travis “20two19” Singleton

My wife wanted to come here and visit the house, I’m so glad we did. The tranquility was breath taking. I’ve never experienced anything quite like it. Pam was a joy to chat with and we enjoyed looking at the artifacts from Lucy’s past. We will visit again the next time we come to PEI.

James Gallant

Nice place to explore information on Anne of green gables writer.

Lost

My daughter looks like her

Ria Spee

It was awesome. A relative of Maud opened the museum up for us during the off season and we had a wonderful chat with her in the kitchen. I learned so much more about Maud that I didn't learn at The Anne of Green Gables Heritage site and I doubt if there would have been anyone there to open up for us. We came upon the museum accidentally because that was what the driver put I to his GPS thinking it was the heritage site. Pam Campbell even said we could follow the path of the horse and carriage and take a drive down to the beach. What a wonderful visit! Thank you so much, Pam!! I have talked about this visit so many times with friends over the past year.

Mijung Kim

Good to see her footsteps...

Devon Sharp

Great history, but lacking in almost every other way.

David Salomon

Because the house was nice, but I still dont know who she is.

Eyad Elbayoumi

Good experience for my kids.

Joy Hoskin

Beautiful. Nice setting. Great gift shop. Cafe wasn't open. Play area with swings and slide. Lovely view.

Jamie Jewer

Ryan Baird

Knowledgable staff and the location is wonderful and interesting.

Jennifer Reid

Loved seeing the museum, one of the female staff was very aggressive towards patrons, specifically children. That took away from the experience

Elena Siniavsky

darice Lin

(Translated) This is a very beautiful place, especially those who have read the book of the beautiful girl, and it is no stranger to the book. Wherever they go, it is the scene of the novel, which makes the fans of the world crazy! (Original) 這是非常美的地方,尤其有看過清秀佳人這本書的人更是不陌生,所到之處都是小說的場景,讓全世界的書迷為之瘋狂!

Seth Wright

Very nice and well kept grounds :)

Kathy B

A must for Anne fans! Family home to Lucy M Montgomery's relatives, the Campbell's. It is a place LMM visited often were her inspiration for parts of Anne of Green Gables...(The Lake of Shining Waters)

Akid Azfar

Absolutely worth it if you are a fan of the author or the series

Jinsong Liu

Fantastic.

Timothy Mcinnis

Nice place

T Sakai

(Translated) I traveled to Canada to spend a few hours at this place. I was very satisfied. The next time you read the unbook, you will be able to draw an image not only from your imagination but also from your memory. (Original) この場所で数時間を過ごす為に、カナダ旅行をしました。とても満足出来ました。次にアンブックを読む時には、想像だけでなく、記憶からもイメージを描く事が出来そうです。

Josh Gardner (Rankune)

Wonderfully managed and maintained. The horse ride is a must weather permitting.

Vahid Aghakhani

Not very great

Kyle Walsh

Matt Small

Lovely place to visit. Carriage ride with Matthew was pleasant. Learned a lot about L. M. Montgomery.

Great atmosphere. Beautiful scenery. Amazing exhibits. Friendly staff. Had a blast.

Leonardo Gonzaga

A Great history and emotional

Cynthia Kitchen Home and Life

Katie Cross

Neat to see the story of Anne in life. Staff were friendly and was nice to walk though sections of the house. Lots of information on the walls in the house. We found a school house in Lower Bedeque.

Todd Gardner

Wife and family loved it

Anida Van der Spuy

Very interesting, wonderful to see all L.M.Montgomery treasures kept and taken care of ...Very special!

Wilma Bekema

Beautifull

Rebecca Grosrenaud

Takes you back in time

Lance Telford

Pretty interesting Place lots a history, if your into the Gables it's a must. Sights are good.

Philip Curran

If you like Anne of Green Gables then you must go here. I'd suggest paying for the carriage ride as well. Take the hour long one and you'll get some time to yourself on the beach...Very peaceful and beautiful. Staff are very friendly as well.

Shyla Tibando

I didn’t know what to expect beyond preservation and history. It was an absolutely enthralling place. It was so easy to place yourself in Montgomery’s imagination while wandering through the yard, the house, and trails. A tot clutching her plush Anne doll with a huge smile sums it up.

Goods Family Adventures

I cried. Legitimately. Any fan of the Anne of Green Gables will love this place it's absolutely perfect.

Bill Piper

My wife is a Green Gables fanatic. We waited for decades for the opportunity to see it in person. Arriving around 5pm, we drove to each site to be sure we knew how to get there the next day. Upon arriving at this site, the woman in the museum (see other references on this page) opened the door of the museum and sicked her German Shepard on my wife. (I was in the car setting up the left leg of the trip on google maps). My wife kept asking why are you being so rude? It was then that I saw the dog, and we gassed it out of there. Now broken hearted, we are going home (1300 miles) and she will never be the same. All b/c of some old witch. We will never go back.

Jason Babakaiff

Knowledgeable staff who love what they do.

Fraser Brodie

Audrey Noury

(Translated) Liked, but not very long to see and expected more entertainment. (Original) Bien aimé , mais pas très long à voir et je m'attendais à avoir plus d'animation .

Richard Harrell

A great place to take anyone who loves anne of green gables. A visit is even enjoyable for for those who are not fans.

Christian Muth

If you love it, you will love it. ;-)

James Feudo

A must do at PEI. Historic property, cute gift shop and while the carriage ride was pricey, it was fun and worth it.

John Rice

The museum covered lots of biographical details about LM Montgomery, but not much on the books. The house tour was interesting but also lacking in specific details to make it more engaging and meaningful. There are several walking trails which are quite lovely, and of course the costumed actors were a nice addition. That said, I probably wouldn't go back.

Mehdi Pakzad

Very nice historic grounds. The Natural view around the property is also a site.

Emma S.

Such a beautiful and informative location. I really love and appreciate how much it delves into the personal history, struggles, and inspirations of the incredible Lucy Maud. There was also the sweetest kitty there which put a cherry on top the whole experience!

Kirk Bratvold

A decent little museum and gift shop.

Jojo Kelly

Beautiful experience. Magical area!

Randula Karunajeewa

Janna Raber

I've been a fan of Anne of Green Gables since I read the book as a girl. I learned so much more about the author, Lucy Maud Montgomery, and her brilliant imagination in creating and bringing to life the character and story of Anne Shirley. This museum and the grounds made the story even more magical in my mind! I hope to come back here and to the magnificent island of PEI someday.

Malcolm

If you like the books you'll love this place

Dan Hentschel

The house is pretty and clean. There is a HUGE amount of information about L.M. Montgomery if you're willing to take the time to read all the text throughout the tour. There are clean bathrooms and a small gift shop. It's a bit of a drive from the other LMM sights in Cavendish, but not too bad.

sim way

Very nice

Sarah Hyson

Amazing staff to explain things and if your a Anne of Green Gables fan

Abigail Avalos

My family and I loved our visit here. It was the most amazing experience. Beautiful location, super interesting museum. I would love to be able to go again someday!

Greg (Kaithor90)

Lovely carriage rides

muyoung art conservation studio (muyoungartcons)

Lovely environment and the warm staff welcome us. It's a great spot for Anne's fans to go!!

Louise Borg

If you're a fan of walking through old houses then do it..other than that the grounds are nice and peaceful.

Paul Michaud

Very nice experience. Highly recommend. Although I was not at all familiar with the Anne of Green Gables saga, I totally enjoyed my visit there. We purchased the DVD box set of the series, and after I watched it with my Wife, I understood the whole story much better. It gave new meaning to our visit.

Stephen Bain

Quiet and cozy place, friendly staff, not an unreasonable price to get in and look around.

Ashley Gardner

Phenomenal staff - welcoming & knowledgeable. The site is beautiful & the highlight of the Green Gables sites we visited. The carriage ride is a must.

Shawn Howlett

Definitely go there again. I forgotten about this museum from when I was a child. Qas fantastic to relearn that part of our history.

Anisaftab Saiyed (Anis)

Best places for literature fans who want to know more about Lucy Montgomery. This is a must visit for people who know about the world famous Anne of Green Gables story. The museum also has nice trails for a stroll in summer.

General Dexter

What a fun place to visit! I have watched all the movies and TV shows about Anne with an E. It was amazing to see the house and areas Ms. Montgomery was inspired to write about.

Stan Sarnocinski

Nice story.

Brittany Rose

Really friendly staff- lots of things to look at

Crystal Leary

Great time except the guy with the horse and wagon was very rude

Sara Dadras

Nice enough. Not very friendly the admission lady. Good little gift shop

The DIY Maniac John P

Pricey for what it is

EL-Undercover

It's so amazing!

Jonathan Bainbridge

A random house about a fictional character in a book of fiction. If you liked Anne of Green Gables, and can ignore the golf course surrounding the house, and only look at the back of the house so you don't see the gigantic sign for the museum... you might be able to imagine Anne crossing the Lake of Shining Water, skipping up to the back door to find Marilla and Matthew waiting supper... Close your eyes and imagine.

YS

Cool place

Mel-La Voie

(Translated) This place is much more worth a visit than the more commercial Cavendish Museum which is a replica of the filming house. Here you will find yourself in the author's vacation home. This house still belongs to the author's family. For an authentic visit this is the best option in my opinion. (Original) Cette endroit vaut beaucoup plus le détour que le musée plus commercial de Cavendish qui est une réplique de la maison du tournage. Ici vous vous retrouverez dans la maison de vacances de l'auteure. Cette maison appartient toujours à la famille de l'auteure d'ailleurs. Pour une visite authentique, c'est la meilleure option à mon avis.

Melissa L

Great to learn about the life of LMM

eric hart

Ok if you're into that stuff

Maria de los Angeles Orozco Avilés

(Translated) It is an important place on the Island. There are rides in carts. Recommendable. (Original) Es un lugar importante en la Isla. Hay paseos en carretas. Recomendable.

PT

Even though it could be more fascinating (especially the carriage ride), visiting the Anne of Green Gables museum is a wonderful experience knowing the outstanding Canadian literary and cultural heritage, Lucy Montgomery's writings and her life.

Juan Vargas

(Translated) It was closed !! ... Closed from November to April .. We could not know the place (Original) Estaba cerrado!!... Cerrado desde noviembre hasta abril.. No pudimos conocer el lugar

Boss Lady 242

A great place to tour, take photos and purchase a few souvenirs.

Graham Burger

Lovely quaint piece of history in beautiful part of the world. Worth staying in area and exploring. Very enjoyable with buggy rides available.

Moses Baik

There are two horses. I like to go there. There is nice view.

Mario Carvajal

(Translated) Nice place and the horse cart ride with Mr Mathieu is the best (Original) Bonito lugar y el paseo en carretilla de caballo con Mr Mathieu es de lo mejor

Danielle Miller

Very cool place. Inexpensive to get in. Little hikes. A little out of the way but you can see other spots on the way. This is NOT Anne of Green Gables house though. The house is still quite a drive. This is the spot the story was written about. Very friendly people.

(Translated) 7 dollars for 1 person (Original) 1인 7불입니다

(Translated) It is a must-see for tourists who can enjoy Prince Edward. (Original) プリンスエドワードを満喫できる、観光客には行くべき施設です。

Tom Tong

Don’t waste your money if you are not a crazy fans, even don’t bother to ask for the cost. We asked the cost and decided not to go the old lady receptionist shows a long face immediately and said: “Because you are Chinese, so you don’t paid!”

Bessem Ben Abdallah

(Translated) Very nice place that tells a true story and then turns into a well-known film of a girl living in Prince Edward Island who ended up finishing her university studies in Nova Scotia. A girl who has lived through several hard times in her life ???????????????? It's a guided tour of the old house that has become a museum, full of details to see in her house that tells the story of this girl's life. A must see if you are passing through Prince Edward Island ???? (Original) Très beau lieu qui parle d’une histoire véridique et qui est ensuite tournée en film bien connu d’une fille vivant dans l’île du Prince Édouard et qui a finis par terminer ses universitaires à Nouvelle Écosse. Une fille qui a vécu plusieurs moments durs dans sa vie ???????????????? C’est une visite guidée dans l’ancienne maison qui est devenue un musée , pleins de détails à voir dans sa maison qui raconte la vie de cette fille. A voir absolument si vous passez par l’île du Prince Édouard ????

Fiona Bratvold

Very nice museum. Lots of information on LM Montgomery and her family. Grounds were beautiful and well maintained. Too bad the tearoom was closed.

Wynne Whitten-Holmes

A lovely place with friendly staff, pretty relaxing without the crowds. It's not the most accessible place but the staff were very good about letting us pull up to the back of the house to unload my wheelchair. The only issue we really had was that the chair got stuck on the gravel walk leading to the craft shop ramp. The carriage ride was absolutely lovely!

Rachel IndiaTeAyuda

(Translated) Nice place! He transported me to the stories of Ana de las Verjas Verdes ... beautiful, cozy and very quiet. I loved it !! (Original) ¡Qué bonito lugar! Me transportó a los cuentos de Ana de las Tejas Verdes... precioso, acogedor y muy tranquilo. I loved it!!

Nick Milton

Had a wonderful time in and around the house

Brigitte Lefebvre

(Translated) The site is enchanting. Well. (Original) Le site est enchanteur. Bien.

Miriam Davydov

(Translated) This museum is a tourist trap: it lacks a lot of history and some pieces are illusory. It costs $ 6 per person for a visit of ten minutes without guided tours. Here is what I discovered from my research after my visit to the "museum": Lucy Montgomery wrote only two books in Cavendish on Prince Edward Island: she married in 1911, shortly after the death of her grandmother and moved to Ontario. She wrote the rest of her novels there and she died in Toronto. Yes Anne of Green Gables was written on Prince Edward Island, but nothing more. In addition, rooms in the house suggest that there were children in this house (maybe her toys ...), But Lucy did not have children on the island. She had three children with the man she married: I suspect she had them in Ontario. In short, in my opinion, paying for this museum is feeding a lie. (Original) Ce musée est un attrape touriste : il manque grandement d'histoire et certaines pièces sont illusoires. Ça coûte 6$ par personne pour une visite d'une dizaine de minutes sans tours guidés. Voici ce que j'ai découvert suite à mes recherches après ma visite au "musée": Lucy Montgomery a rédigé que deux livres à Cavendish sur l'île du Prince Édouard : elle se mari en 1911, peu après la mort de sa grand mère et déménage en Ontario. Elle a écrit le reste de ses romans là bas et elle décède à Toronto. Oui Anne of Green Gables a été rédigé sur l'île du Prince-Edouard, mais sans plus. De plus, des pièces dans la maison laisse croire qu'il y a eu des enfants dans cette demeure (peut être ses jouets à elle...), Mais Lucy n'a pas eu d'enfant sur l'île. Elle a eu trois enfants avec l'homme qu'elle a marié: je soupçonne qu'elle les a eu en Ontario. Bref, à mon sens, payer pour ce musée c'est nourrir un mensonge.

Monica S

Such a lovely place to visit. The carriage ride was stunning with must see views! So peaceful and breathtaking. The museum displays Montgomery’s room and some belongings. Very nice.

Francis Robichaud

(Translated) I who had never seen and known this series, I went to please my girlfriend and she was very happy with his experience (Original) moi qui avais jamais vue et connue cette séries ,jy suis aller pour faire plaisir a ma copine et elle a été très heureuse de son expérience

Yan Jenny

A must see! So lovely I can come to visit the museum.I am a fan of Anne of Green Gables and recommend everyone read the novel or watch the movie before your visit. You will feel very different, awesome experience!

James D

Cool

Christopher Robinson-Keys

Another must see if visiting PEI

Nick Kidd

To be honest, I wanted to rate this as a 2 star because Anne is Green Gables is not really my thing. However, went there with the family who I thought would appreciate it more. It’s a nice place but the museum is not really that impressive and certainly very touristy and definitely not worth it. Even the wife and kids weren’t really impressed. If you’re in PEI, and in that area, there’s definitely a lot better stuff to do, eg Cavendish beach, than waste your time here.

Shaqayeq Haji Hoseini

Very nice

Ron Smith

Very nice authentic museum experience. The presenter was actually a relative to Lucy Maud Montgomery. Lovely property overlooking the Lake of Shining Waters.

Kelly Beamsley

It was ok... I think if you loved the book then this place would mean more to you.

Anthony Muljadi

If you don't know the books this place is boring

abraham Perez Peña

(Translated) How exciting to know that this place exists! The Ann with "E" series is a great inspiration for much of the history of this beautiful natural space. I would like to visit it someday and perceive its colorful and hopeful spring, its short summer, its dazzling autumn or its unforgiving winter, to see if the latter shows me the "Princess Cordelia", dressed as a bride, the bride of adventure and, on the way to the "Snow Queen". Excellent! (Original) ¡Que emocionante saber que existe este lugar! La serie Ann with "E" es una gran inspiración de gran parte de la historia de este hermoso espacio natural. Me gustaría visitarlo algún día y percibir su colorida y esperanzadora primavera, su corto verano, su deslumbrante otoño o su implacable invierno, a ver si este último me muestra a la "Princesa Cordelia", vestida de novia, la novia de las aventuras y, de paso a la"Reina de las Nieves". ¡Excelente!

Got there close to closing time. Had enough to go through the tour. It was nice to see where all the creative ideas and writing came from.

Kim Downton

Beautiful place.

Stella Metran (stellams)

Mike and Shawna Hual

Great! Loved speaking with a decent of the author. Very well maintained and presented.

Jerney Geier

6$ each to look at 2 rooms of contents and a small sketch gift shop, definitely skip this place and just go to the real Green Gables Heritage place

Patricia Leininger

This is the home of the author of the Anne of Green Gables series of books. Lovely.

A must stop for those that read the books or for some good canadian culture. This is the home of the authors extended family where some of the books were written. Descendants still work there. Home is full of great artifacts and info. Take your time to read and observe. Gifts shop, carriage rides and walking path.

So small

Great history

Louis-Philippe Durand

(Translated) We went through renovations so the introductory scenery wasn't great which ruined the experience to leave. There is the green gable house building to visit and a walk through the haunted forest which is ultimately a charming little forest with some explanation about the author of the novel. Performers are slow to respond to demand and are only there for appearance. There was Anne and her friends who showed up to say hello. A very big shop which surely the most important attraction but the prices are exorbitant and gives an aftertaste to the visit. Products that cost 4 times more than an off-site store so don't spend there. Instead, go to the museum in Kensington which has nice people descended from the author who can also authenticate your novel. There is plenty of parking space. (Original) Nous sommes allés en pleine rénovations alors le paysage d'introduction était pas super ce qui a ruiné l'expérience de départ. Il y a le bâtiment de la maison au pignon vert à visiter et une promenade dans la forêt hantée qui est finalement une petite forêt charmante avec quelques explications sur l'auteur du roman. Les interprètes sont lents à répondre à la demande et ne sont là que pour l'apparence. Il y a eu Anne et sont amie qui sont apparues pour dire bonjour. Une très grosse boutique qui sûrement l'attraction la plus importante mais les prix sont exorbitants et donne un arrière goût à la visite. Des produits qui coûtent 4 fois plus cher qu'un magasin à l'extérieur du site alors ne dépensez pas à cet endroit. Allez plutôt au musée à Kensington qui a des gens sympathique descendant de l'auteur qui pourront aussi authentifier votre roman. Il y a beaucoup de place de stationnement.

Amazing

Stacy Dion

Take the guided tour, it really enhances the experience! Our family really enjoyed this place!

Elham sezavar

We got there around 11:30 am and carriage ride was unavailable. We were told that was horses lunch time. So if you would like to have a carriage ride, go there before 11:30 or after 13:30.

Laura Flores-Sarnat

very nice museum, beautiful surroundings

Debbie Leikis

Loved it! Great artifacts from L.M. Montgomery's life.

Leonid Chukhovsky

Pat Ling

It has a good collection on L M Montgomery items

aaron grass

Great place just hate seeing horses pulling carts. That horse looked real tired.

David DeNardis

A must see for fans of Lucy Maud Montgomery. Beautiful museum and go at your own pace.

Trouble with Triton

If you have to chose , pick this museum. It's got spirit and a better feel at portraying the love and comfort of PEI for LM Montgomery. You see the connection and hear or read her stories . Actual artifacts from her and her family are on display as well. It feels like how I picture Green Gables should be.

Very very nice museum

MacKenzie MacLean

Wow! I took my wife too be here today and we both had the best time of our lives today! We definitely coming back next year !

Derek A

It was ok. Glad I went but it wasn't a highlight of the trip.

rubliwton

Great spot to learn or enjoy what you already know about L.M. Montgomery and her famous stories. Not great for busy little kids but other than that it's a excellent bit of history.

Paul Silva

Gail Burton

Wanted to go there my entire life..stopped by to take pictures..was not supposed to open for another few days..but the lady let us go thru..impressed

Rachelle Berger

What a great house to visit. The scenery around the house was great. I felt like I was living in her books here. It is so quaint at this place. I really enjoyed my visit here.

Melissa McKinnon

The museum curator lady was very passionate about the history of this museum and very welcoming. Bucket list visit more than I ever imagined....brought back so many memories of reading and watching Anne of Green Gables that it actually got me a little emotional. Definitely a place I will return to with my girls P.s. raspberry cordial is the best thing I've ever tasted!

Marlen Capo

Great place for kids and children, the nature around was awasome.

Thomas Dunn

Another tourist trap in PEI

Alice Harkness

Great piece of history

Kelly McKenzie

It was more off the 'beaten path' than expected but that wasn't an issue but we would have packed more grub and goodies for an over night stay had we realized that a drive 'up the road' in New London meant 15-25 minutes to a convenience store. LOL The restaurants in the area were great and our motel was okay especially considering the fact that tourism season is behind due to the destructive winter PEI had! However, we also had a leak in our room that kept us awake more than I'd like. It was addressed by the motel owner but still, nothing he could do late in the evening with the rain still pouring outside. The museum itself wasn't anything spectacular BUT we anticipated this as we understood it was the aunt and uncle's homestead, bigger than that which Lucy was born in (we visited her birth home as well) and considered well-to-do for the times but the landscape was lovely and the home beautifully furnished and laid out with many signs and notes denoting events and explanations of pieces in each room. That said, considering this was our main point in visiting the island - my mother is 73-years old and is a fan of LMM's writings since she was 10-years old - my mother was awake at 5:30 a.m. itching to get started. Unfortunately as the museum opened at 9 a.m., we had a wait. Even a spot for breakfast wasn't available until 7:30 a.m. We had a great meal. Then off to the museum. We arrived at the museum at 9:38 a.m. to find a CLOSED sign still in place. Everything locked up. We even range the 'ship' bell. Nothing. Knocked. Nothing. We were not happy. We took the trip overnight from CB to see this ONE place which opened at 9 a.m. but was still closed. The internet wasn't available due to the remote location so I called a friend in Cape Breton to get the tourism number. My mother commented, "Oh well, I could look in the windows". THAT was NOT an option. When I got the number a car pulled into the parking lot. This was at 9:45 a.m. The woman who got out was an employee of the gift store opposite the museum. We asked when the museum would be open, she commented, "Oh she should be in there...look, the door is open". It was open NOW and the closed sign still on. If you're saying you're open at 9 a.m. at a provincial and/or federal site, OPEN at that time! See the inside, especially the writing desk was the highlight for my mother. It had been her dream for a very long time and, thankfully, it came to fruition.

Beautiful setting but couldn't really relate as I haven't read the books. That being said I'm sure it's fascinating if you knew the context

Carmelita Marsden

Just simply AWESOME!

Stacie Gant

This beautiful little museum feels like stepping into the book. Staff were excellent. Reasonably priced beautiful and authentic.

Razu Ahmed Masud

Nice historical place.

Nozomi K

I visited just before the season started. I wasn't able to see inside the house but nature around. It's just from the book. If you want to walk nice long trails, better to have a pair of sneakers.

Interesting visit

Mahtab Sv

It was my childhood dream to visit this place, I went there with such a excitement. The house, view, everything were so fascinating!However, this became my worst experience that I had so far. The lady at the front door was racist and she was behaving in way that made to regret of coming to this place. We were three students who wanted to visit the house and when we asked that “do you have any discounts for students”, she said “ the greatest discount that we ever gave you was letting you come to Canada”. I stayed quiet and just paid for the tickets but I decided to write this review to make people aware of my experience.

Kim Dyment

Many more personal artifacts of Lucy Maud Montgomery with descriptions. She was married here and house remains in original condition. Carriage ride with Mathew available. Not as many tourists as Parks Canada sites.

Matt

There are many Anne of Green Gables sites and this is the only one we visited. It's neat to see where the author lived for a part of her life. The staff was very friendly and informative. We got there before the opening so had the place almost to ourselves. After seeing this, we didn't feel the need to visit the other sites. We did drive by the house where the author was born and didn't see anything worthwhile stopping for.

William MacDougall

Wonderful information about LM Montgomery and her family. Well documented and very well cared for. Very interesting in a beautiful setting.

Elizabeth Swiderski

My family and I have revisited the museum several times. Very informative and I think better than the other Anne of Green Gables museums.

Joel Jackson

Excellent setting, friendly staff.

Lin Walsh

Very crowded wish we could have spent more time!

Jade Catton

I am a life time Anne of a Green Gables kindred spirit and this place for me was absolute heaven. To be honest I felt so moved I cried! They have the cabinet that Lucy and Anne made their window friend, Katie Maurice in as well as lots of other personal items of Lucy's, they even let me play the organ that was used for Lucy's wedding and it's set on the real Lake of Shining waters she refers to in the book and that they film in the movie. The carriage ride was expensive but again it was so so beautiful and takes you right to the place you have read about plus Matthew was the real thing for me! So worth it. Because it is quiter and less touristy than Green Gables you really connect in the way you imagine. If you are are a true Kindred spirit this is a must do.

(Translated) I just finished watching the series (excellent!) And the places and landscapes dazzled me so I decided to look for information about that area. I was surprised to know that it exists and that what appears on a screen matches the real thing. Too bad they are thousands of miles away !!! (Original) Acabo de terminar de ver la serie (excelente!) y me deslumbraron los lugares y paisajes así que decidí buscar información sobre esa zona.

(Translated) Scam, scam, scam. The house is held by a distant cousin of the author. No link with the shooting of the show. Only documents that belonged to the author. Go around the house but do not pay to enter. My spouse is a fan finished and was disappointed. (Original) Arnaque, arnaque, arnaque. La maison est tenue par une lointaine cousine de l'auteure. Aucun lien avec le tournage de l'émission. Que des documents ayant apartenus à l'auteure. Faites le tour de la maison mais ne payer pas pour enter. Ma conjointe est une fan finie et à été déçu.

Wish I knew more of the story as there wasn't much to do or see.. Did it all in 15 minutes.. Cool nostalgia as it pertains to the island but a take it or leave it type of situation - nice to say we saw it.

They don't let you walk your dog here, they can't even get out of the car. So i am stuck in the car while my wife visits. A shame since the grounds look amazing.

The walls through the forest is very interesting and relaxing!!

Lisa Cushnie

Absolutely amazing... a childhood dream come true!!

(Translated) We arrived but there was an organized group bus and the people at the reception invited us to go for a walk for five to ten minutes to let the people on the bus pass in front of us in other words we were sent for a walk (Original) Nous sommes arrivés or il y avait une autobus de groupe organisé et les gens à l'accueil nous ont invité à aller se promener pendant cinq à dix minutes pour laisser les gens de l'autobus passer devant nous autrement dit on se fait envoyer promener

Molly B

It's nice ! The lady at the cash was very nice and helpful with info.

L B

It's a beautiful area. And for big fans of the book I'm sure it would be better. For me, I'm some what familiar with the story. It was nice to walk the grounds a bit. I didn't bother paying for the museum. It was a nice excuse to drive to that side of the island.

(Translated) Museum dedicated to the protagonist of the series of novels "Anna with red hair" by the writer Lucy Maud Montgomery, it displays various objects such as the author's writing desk. The large pond in the land belonging to the uncles was the source of inspiration for "The lake of shining waters" (Original) Museo dedicato alla protagonista della serie di romanzi "Anna dai capelli rossi" della scrittrice Lucy Maud Montgomery, in esso sono esposti vari oggetti come lo scrittoio dell'autrice.

Very nice...lots to see...tku Lucy Maude Montgomery

Scott Hamilton

Great seeing this picturesque home and property

Lesa Light

I had never been to this museum. It was wonderful.

Louise Aasen

If you are an Anne with an e fan, you should visit this Place. Good history of the writer Lucy Maud Montgomery and family homestead. Good venue for strolling and enjoying the outdoors too. Side note - no dogs allowed on property.

Mark Bortis

Its tradition. A passage for all Canadians that holds a great deal of intrigueing history.

Kelly Casto

I had such a good time at the Anne of Green Gables Museum. It was a real treat to see the place that inspired Lucy Maud Montgomery to write the beautiful story of Anne Shirley. I could almost feel Anne's presence as I walked around the quaint old place. I would love to go back some day.

Eugene Lalli

Nice place to visit

(Translated) If you followed like my wife all the episodes of Anne and the house with the green gables you will be delighted to visit the museum. This museum recounts all of Lucy Maud Montgomery's writing. Take the time to visit and soak up this fabulous history. Prince Edward Island has many secrets. I highly recommend you. (Original) Si vous avez suivi comme ma conjointe tout les épisodes de Anne et la maison aux pignons vert vous serez ravi de visiter le musée. Ce musée relate toute l'écriture de Lucy Maud Montgomery.

Min kim

Learning about the author of the Anne of Green Gables and being in a place where the author herself lived!

Songyi Ju

To be honest, it is too expensive and employees do not welcome visitors very much. The woman who explained to the museum thought she was a robot.

Mikhail Goldfeld

Nice place to stop but you have to read the book or at least watch the movie

Tam

The girlfriend is a big fan of Green Gables so this was her paradise. I will defer to her that this place was fantastic.

Ross Smith

Carriage ride was wonderful

Rieza Johnston

Neat place. Interesting to see first editions, the organ and other artifacts.

Matt Cross

If you are a fan it is worth seeing, alot of photos and history. Tours and wagon rides available, the staff are not very knowledgeable of where the school was located. We found it near summerside after getting directions at the information center.

Caroll Burleigh

Even a horse drawn carriage ride

Audrey Harrison-Bryant

A real pilgrimage.

Trena Dwyer

A must for any Green Gables fan

Richard Carter

Very nice. Loved it. Low key and not as rushed as another so-called "Anne" museum. Nice setting. Great things to look at. Nice gift shop. ????

Andrea Clark

Very pretty area and house. They have a carriage ride that we didn't go on but did think about. The house and someone who lived there were stars in a book L. M. Montgomery wrote about in one of her books.

We truly enjoyed our visit to the Anne of Green Gables Museum and it was extremely interesting to see the parlor where Lucy Maud Montgomery was married and to read some of the letters she had written to others and to learn more about her personal life. In one of her letters she spoke about not having enough money to hire a nurse and she thought she was losing her mind. She also stated that fame did not bring riches and it was shocking to learn that she died with very little money. It was heartbreaking to think that she was never financially rewarded for her incredible talent while she was alive. The house contains several items that are mentioned in The Anne of Green Gables books, including the Enchanted Bookcase. There are also a lot of pictures of Lucy Montgomery’s family members, which gives one a sense of her family history, which was also very interesting. The outlying grounds were also beautiful and the gift shop was very nice also. The staff was wonderful to us and helped us with our 90 year old mother who has mobility issues and we appreciated their help. Overall it was a truly wonderful experience and I would highly recommend it to others who are Anne of Green Gables fans and interested in the life of Lucy Maud Montgomery!

More history and artifacts than the actual Green Gable site in Cavendish. Actual relatives still live in this farmstead, which inspired Lucy Maud's Shining Waters. LM Montgomery was married in this house. Today, it is open for tours, and horse-drawn carriage rides are available.

The worst history tour I’ve ever been on. The house was nice but lacking information. Matthew horse carriage ride was a waste of 75$ for a half hour. No info was given, he talked about his life, told us about the different people who come their for weddings. And no where to get a tea or coffee, tea room was reserved, I was so upset as I’m a history buff.

Raoul Lloyd

I love the farm land and the horses.

shanna waters

Carriage ride was disappointing but our driver was great.

Melanie Lavigne

Great piece of my childhood

Ellen Currie

Great slice of history. Can't see all of the house because a family member lives there.
