About this property

A delightful newly renovated cottage right off the legendary Cabot Trail. Open rooms and ceilings, paired with beautiful hardwood floors- crafted from local rock maple, birch and ash- create a cozy beach atmosphere. The cottage has a full kitchen- including handmade counters atop antique cabinets, in addition to two bedrooms, a washing machine and dryer and a spacious bathroom. A beautiful deck provides the perfect ocean view and ideal location to watch the sunset, BBQ dinner or simply relax. With only a 5 minute drive to the beach and a 15 minute drive to Cape Breton Highlands National Park, there is a wealth of outdoor fun awaiting for families and couples alike.

Miscommunication but made whole.

We had trouble communicating with this host. We didn’t receive his responses to our questions via VRBO app. We were able to talk to his wife via the provided phone number to confirm our arrival time, address and entry code. We arrived at 11pm to a house that had not been cleaned. The host was able to contact a local hotel that had enough rooms available for us. We ended up staying at the hotel for the two nights we were in the area. The host refunded our full amount and 50$ for the trouble.

Clean and spacious house

Check in was confusing. No message on website indicated key would be located in house with door unlocked! Was looking for website message with code access? Bathroom should have a privacy blind for at night. Everything else was a good experience.

Beautiful Cottage

We made this cottage our base for exploring Highlands National Park. We enjoyed using the deck and Cheticamp is a short drive away. The appliances in the kitchen are new and in great shape and this is a very comfortable place to stay
