I was fortunate to be able to visit Lucy Maud Montgomery's home site and the Anne of Green Gables Museum on Prince Edward Island a few years back. My mother was out visiting me when I lived in Ohio, and we took a magical trip up through Concord, Massachusetts visiting Louisa May Alcott's Orchard House and Ralph Waldo Emerson's House, as well as others. Then, we headed north into Canada and up to P.E.I. - a dream come true for me.
Following are links to the Anne of Green Gables Museum on Prince Edward Island, as well as the home site where Lucy Maud Montgomery lived with her grandparents from 1876 - 1911. There isn't much left at the home site, but it is still worth the visit! There are placards that describe places around the property and a little gift shop. Anyone familiar with Anne of Green Gables, will be able to walk around the property getting goosebumps seeing what she saw.
