Entertainment is included in the price of admission, with appearances by Anne and Diana, and musical entertainment in the evenings.
• The Green Gables House (Cavendish): This house is the house LMM was thinking of when she wrote her famous book. It was where her MacNeill cousins lived. The Green Gables house used in the Anne movies was actually two distinct buildings, both privately owned and both located in Southern Ontario. The reason for choosing these houses (aside from their visual appeal) was because most of the principle filming was done in Southern Ontario, and since the Cavendish Green Gables is constantly in use as a tourist attraction, it was inaccessible to be used as a movie set.

Constructed in 1896-1899 by Alexander McDonald of Cincinnati, an American oil industrialist, it served as a summer house in Queen Anne revival style. Situated at the east end of PEI National Park on Dalvay Beach, it is now a hotel and dining room leased to a private business interest by Parks Canada. The Inn has 26 rooms (prices range from CDN$160-300/night), 3 dining rooms and a gift shop.
