We spent 3 nights at this property. It has amazing grounds and incredible views. Great open concept kitchen and living area with a constant view of the water! The cabin is well appointed and had everything we needed. We really loved being able to roll out the door and be right at the ECT. Frank the host was super responsive as well. 10/10 for us for sure! We hope to come again.

The property is absolutely beautiful, as advertised, and the house is lovely, as shown in the pictures. We ended up changing our plans and spent time just enjoying the area instead of heading off to “tourist attractions” every day. I highly recommend visitors pin the location (as provided) for navigation, and be sure to download the map of the area first (cell coverage can be spotty in Newfoundland).

Our all time favorite property and home! Stunning views together with a beautiful and spacious home filled with original art and high quality furnishings. The house is well-equipped and very comfortable with everything we needed and more. The location at the East Coast Trail is wonderful. We did many daily hikes and our only issue was we had to leave. Thank you!

Everything was great! The house has the best view of the ocean. Within 30 minutes of arriving we saw Humpback whales swimming in the bay. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The bathroom was beautiful and had plenty of towels.

Great location and beautiful house. We watched whales and thousands of puffins from the deck every day. The section of East Coast trail than runs behind the house is excellent. Short drive to St. Johns. House was very clean. Strangely there are no electrical outlets in the bathroom. Would highly recommend.

What a beautiful place! Views were incredible. Property was wonderful. Big open living space with large windows with a spectacular view to the sea. Our family had an amazing time exploring the grounds, including the little pond. We had fun hiking a portion of the East Coast Trail that was literally at the end of the drive way and combing the nearby rock beach for starfish and sea urchins. Tore Cove was a quick drive to many local attractions and tours. We would definitely recommend this place to family and friends visiting the area.

Amazing seaside retreat

Beautiful place, the photos don’t do it justice. We loved exploring the grounds and walking the sections of the East Coast Trail. Perfect location to make trips into St John’s and explore the Avalon Coast. The best part was the watching the ocean, we had daily sightings of tuna breaching and sea lions. Would return in a heartbeat.

Spectacular!

This place far exceeded our expectations....trust me the pictures do not do it justice. Everything about this property is amazing. We spent two glorious days at the beginning of August here and still cant stop talking about it. The massive picture windows, spacious open concept living area, comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, mini telescope, games, delightful pond, meandering paths, peaceful wooded areas and most importantly the stunning oceanfront make this spot truly stand out. We will definitely be back.
