New Beachfront Post+beam Cottage, Amazing Sunsets and Just Off Cabot Trail

The cottage has energy efficient ICF foam/concrete walls and natural cedar shingles weathered from sea air that encompass a gorgeous post+beam interior. Being 1 minute off legendary Cabot Trail- there are lots of activities for kids, and families and couples alike can enjoy a wonderful beach getaway. You can walk out the front door & across the field straight onto the beach. Directly in front of the cottage is a stone beach- very peaceful, private and perfect for campfires. Approximately 400 meters down the beach however, it changes to a beautiful sandy beach that is child safe and has a family-friendly atmosphere- perfect for swimming and sandcastles. We are also just minutes away from the heritage rich Acadian village of Cheticamp where the family can learn a little bit about Acadian culture and each great food at some local restaurants.


Owner Description: Jyl and I live in Margaree Valley on my family's homestead property. We have 9 children, from 27 right down to 2. I drive a school bus and own a small well drilling company, Jyl is a physiotherapist.

Why the Owner Chose Cheticamp: It started as a beach house for the family, we all enjoy the ocean . The location was perfect because it was only 1/2 hour from our home in Margaree and close to Jyl's work.

The Unique Benefits of this Cottage: Our cottage is located on a strip of land on the beach, with magnificent sunsets and island views toward the front and Cheticamp harbour, full of birds and plants with a mountain back drop to the rear. The site offers a panoramic view of the ocean,island,harbour,wild life and mountains. We're one minute off the Cabot Trail and five minutes to Cheticamp with the Cape Breton Highlands National Park about 10 minutes away.
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen with a refrigerator, an oven, a microwave, and a stovetop. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Beautiful place to stay
The property was everything we hoped for. Off a bit from the main road and right on the water. It was just the two of us so we weren’t concerned about the fact that it was advertised as sleeping 8. I would qualify that just a bit. There are two bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a queen and two double beds. Sleeping 8 adults seems a little tight. It would be perfect for a family with kids. I’d love to stay there with kids and grandkids. House was very nicely outfitted. Couldn’t figure out how to turn up the heat. Adjusting the thermostat was not clear.

Location
The location on the isle was superb. Bedrooms were comfortable. Was a serene getaway which is what we were hoping for. Unique style with the garter door and high ceilings. At night, place was a little chilly due to the openness of the house. Heating options were not clear.
