The only complaint I have is that this place is in PEI, and not closer to where I live in Ontario!…read more My partner and friend and I were visiting Charlottetown and walked by this store and I just had to go in. The items are beautifully displayed, and you could tell the owner really has an eye for style. There was a large variety of items at a range of different prices. I love that they are size inclusive as well. I had a blast shopping here, and the owner helped accessorize some of the outfits. I got a couple of dresses, paid of shoes, belt and lounge wear. It was such a fun experience shopping here, I could have spent hours looking for treasures! Although I'm happy that they have an online shop, I can't wait to come here again the next time I visit Charlottetown. It's an absolute must see!

This was right on the main street as we were walking to Cows for some ice cream. The shop had a…read morelot of things to pick up and overall I thought the prices was pretty good for a tourist shop. I picked up a stone bead bracelet that had a stone sloth on it, my wife's "spirit animal" and then another item for my son who was not with us. The choices were good and they had some additional sale on a cup at a discount because I bought over a certain amount, I didn't need another cup, but nice for someone to throw in a discount. The girl who worked that day was friendly, but didn't laugh at my dad jokes...oh well. A nice place to pick up stuff while in PEI.

You can tell that great care is taken by curating the collection, especially in the children's book and Canadian/PEI history sections. I found a delightful "Winnie The Pooh" book from the 50's that was very fairly priced for its condition and age. They're not priced to move - the books here are priced aggressively, and rightly so! It's a town where many a tourist passes through, ready to spend their money. I was all too happy to help stimulate the local economy and bring home to NYC a book I'll treasure for years to come.

I've loved stopping in to Owl's Hollow since I was a little kid visiting PEI! The variety of toys…read moremeans that there's something there for kids of all ages! I really love the wooden toys. When I was younger, I never noticed all of the yarn, but now that I'm a knitter, it was the main thing I wanted to see. The shop has a great selection of yarn and accessories (including cute anti-slip stickers for the bottoms of slippers & the biggest colour selection of Phentex I've seen) in the back corner. On top of the great products, there's a cute little coffee shop in the front. You can pay for your coffee shop order while you're paying for your products at the main cash. We did have to ask at the cash to make an order as no one was at that counter. It was no problem to quickly bring up a guy from another part of the store to pull a shot of espresso. This is a perfect shop for a crafter with kids! The kids can look around at toys while the crafter can stay in the yarn section. The staff are friendly and easy-to-talk to with the woman I spoke to on cash also being a crafter. There is lots of parking alongside the building and you can easily spot it on the main road into Charlottetown.

The awesome staff and…read moreproduct selection, the ability to custom order, and the location make Owl's Hollow an extremely attractive shop.

The art studio inside looked incredible as well, but bringing small children in we were a bit more wary to let them explore here. As well the bathrooms were so super small and no baby change tables sadly. Although the fresh food was amazing! So much fresh salad we were all glad to have so much greens on our plates. The lobster spinach quiche was delightful, our group also ordered the crab cakes, chicken bacon wrap and kids cheese pizza.

We're…read moreusually pretty skeptical of ice cream joints in a tourist town, but after seeing the lines back at the location in Halifax we figured they had to be pretty good. We were there pre busy season so it was quick in, quick out, helpful servers scooping. There's a neat little shop with all manner of kitsch attached to it if that's your way. I mean, all in all a solid showing, it's top shelf and you get a hefty scoop for the price. Pro tip: if you get a 2 scooper, get two flavors. The burnt sugar went really well with chocolate peanut butter cup.
