New Glasgow
New Glasgow is a quiet town that spreads elegantly across the shores of the River Clyde.
This is the favorite lobster supper getaway for folks from Charlottetown, although it's be-

Camping & Cabins CAMPGROUND $
( 902-964-3232; www.campcabinpei.com ; Rte 224; campsites/RV sites $32/38, cabins $60;
Apr-Nov; ) The 20-odd sites here are properly spaced in the forest, each with its own
fire pit. For rainy days there are simple cooking facilities in the lodge. Add a laundry, a

a hint of feta truly hit the spot; finish the meal with the house specialty, raspberry cream
cheese pie. The cafe is an addition to the famous PEI Preserve Company ( 9am-8pm
Jun-Sep) . While the preserves are a tad pricey, we think they're worth every penny; if
