Cozy cottage - well appointed. Perfect winter spot, 20 minutes from Cape Smokey. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Beautiful location, especially in the winter.

Came back from hiking each day to a great base from day trips out to the beauty of Cape Breton! Splendid! Comfy little spot!

Things are meticulously planned out and well appointed. Adorable tiny house get-away! It allows us to eat simple meals and get out on the trails and beaches. Come back to read a book on your own personal deck or grill a feast. Quiet sleeping, away from the main hubbub, but scenic easy-peasy drives. The Island is stunning! The owners are absolutely lovely and helpful!

Overall we enjoyed our stay at this cozy cottage. Location was a great home base for exploring the Cabot Trail. Lovely property with access to hiking trails right on site and just a short walk to the ocean. The only issue I would note is that the floor is two different heights between the kitchen and living/bedroom area. This is a bit hazardous and we had to be careful until we got used to it. Both my husband and I either tripped or stubbed our toes.I would suggest doing something to make the transition in heights more smooth.
