Ericka, 3-night trip

Clean and comfortable vintage B&B that’s walkable to the historic downtown. Hostess Donna, was extremely friendly and helpful! Complimentary breakfast was wonderful. Would recommend.
GAYATRIE, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Breakfast was home made and served with elegance. Our hostess, Donna, was wonderful and very knowledgeable of places to visit. Bed was comfortable, internet access was secure and we had our own transportation but most of the downtown is walkable if you are able. We would certainly recommend the Dawson House as a go to place to stay.

Delightful 1800s home, roomy and comfortable room, bed, etc. Good location in Charlottetown, close to the city center while also easily accessible from the countryside. Charming host who shared numerous good recommendations of things to see and places to eat. Delicious breakfasts. Highly recommended, we will be back

Donna, the owner and our hostess, was a treat. Friendly greeting when we arrived, quickly checked us in, gave us info and a map with reco on where to go and what to do. Our room was quite large and very comfortable. I slept like a log! The homemade hot breakfast was delicious. The home's decor is lovely. Great front porch for sitting awhile. Highly recommend.

Doug, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a lovely stay at this historic B&B. The house is very well-maintained and modern, the innkeeper engaging without being overbearing. It is about a half mile walk to town or a 5 min car ride.
Stephen, 2-night trip

The house itself is beautiful. We especially enjoyed the private balcony adjoining our room. Our host Donna made our stay enjoyable with her tour recommendations, her delicious breakfasts and the friendly atmosphere that she created.

Owner friendliness, cleanliness and a great breakfast made our stay pleasant. Our 3rd floor room size was cozy and the stairs were a little slippery.

We had such a lovey stay at Dawson house! Donna is very thoughtful and sweet, she is very welcoming, provided an excellent restaurant recommendation and made a delicious breakfast. We liked the room decor and the bed. The bed sheets were very comfy. The Dawson house has a sunning decor inside! It is kept very well. Don’t forget to try the pumpkin loaf!!
Jacob, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A get a way @ the Dawson House is a gift to yourself We enjoyed a 2 night stay in Captains Room and were delighted w the attention to detail, the close proximity to downtown and other points of interest. The breakfast was not to be missed both delicious and beautifully presented The innkeeper was wonderful and quickly responded to any needs. We feel as though we made a friend and plan to return
Renee, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The house is charming, and the hostess (Donna) very gracious. Breakfasts (homemade) were also excellent. Our bedroom was beautifully decorated and comfortable. The garden is also lovely. It is a 15-20 minute walk from downtown Charlottetown, which is doable. (The only negative was climbing 4 sets of stairs to get to our room on the third floor.) Otherwise, great!
