We stayed only for a short overnight rest after hiking in the Cape Bretton, but the cleanliness of the room and newly renovated bathroom was impressed. There are a couple of quite sandy beaches close by to swim and watch the sunset and wake up to watch the sunrise and beautiful mountain and river next morning from the room window.
