Cabin with character on the water.

We had a great time here during our summer road trip. The unique and private setting on the water was enjoyable and memorable. It was the perfect location for exploring Sydney, Glace Bay and Louisbourg.

The property is nicely situated if you care to explore Louisburg to Sydney. To clarify listing details it is actually a studio unit with one common room with a double bed and couch. Would only recommend for 1-2 people.

Beautiful cottage on river

We stayed 3 nights. Owners, Winston and Susan, were there to greet us and always around if needed. They live next door, but respected our privacy. Easy drive into Glace Bay. Patio overlooks river and very quiet setting. Loved watching the ducks and birds and saw a river otter. Fully equipped kitchen - hot plate, but no stove. A grill is on the deck to use. Heat pump for air condition & propane fireplace for heat. Comfortable bed. Marconi Towers Rd was a bit tricky to find, so get specific directions. Take Rt 4 to Glacé Bay & then to Marconi Towers Rd. Avoid taking 3 roads off Rt 22- Morrison Rd, Broughton Rd & Grove Rd- they are in rough shape. Would recommend going to Fortress of Louisbourg. 2 nice beaches - one in Glace Bay near Donkin and one in Dominion. Try breakfast at Collett’s. Would would stay there again.

There are some places you stay that you forget as soon as you leave and others you will remember for a long time. This falls into the latter. It's as described rustic and a life photo. There is a mix of decorations that to me were cool and interesting. WiFi was good, small galleon kitchen, didn't use but looked sufficient. The real winner here is being able to sit right on a river deck, ducks and geese everywhere, frogs playing the banjos, beavers swimming by (never seen a beaver in my life before) and woodpeckers constantly stopping at the feeder. Winston and Susan very helpful. This was a bargain price as well, should have stayed longer, we stayed as a base for Louisburg as very close Hope to return soon

Winter Stay

Overall a good stay. Very homey feel. Good location not too far from town. We stayed during a very windy few days and it was drafty inside but still warm. So although I imagine that is not the norm, it would be something to consider if travelling with a baby during the winter months. Unit is attached to a garage that’s used by owner so the space is not 100% private if that’s a consideration for future guests. Winston and Susie are very nice people and have a well stocked unit.

I have progressing mobility issues. The property is mainly one level, with two tiny steps to the bathroom and a tiny stop to the front door. Shower enclosure, no tub. Rustic, charming property on a small pond with ducks and other wildlife. Owner has done all the renovations to the property himself. The bathroom counter and kitchen counters are slightly raised, which I found very comfortable. Nicely furnished deck with BBQ, which overlooks the duck pond. Patio doors open onto the deck. Fully equipped kitchen. Comfortable bed. I will definitely stay there again.

Rustic nook on a brook/pond

It is a rustic cottage. Everything we needed was on site and the owner very friendly and helpful gave us advice on where to eat. There a nice covered deck and we enjoyed watching the birds eat at the feeder. Also, it's very convenient to the beautiful Highlands of Cape Breton.

Rustic

The property is quaint, but for a longer stay there are a few issues. There is a need for more storage spaces for your clothes, and curtains to eliminate the light. The host couldn't be more welcoming and helpful.He even supplied us with canoes for no charge, exceptional!.
