Cozy tiny home. It needed a basin to clean dishes as the sinlk in bathroom was very tiny. It was located on the boardwalk, which was closed due to safety. Otherwise a great stay.

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this tiny home in Chéticamp. The space was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Despite its small footprint, it felt surprisingly spacious and well organized. The location was excellent, providing easy access to Chéticamp, the Cabot Trail, and Cape Breton Highlands National Park. We especially appreciated the peaceful setting, convenient parking, and the opportunity to relax after a day of exploring. The tiny home was well maintained and made a great base for our Cape Breton adventures. The only thing to keep in mind is that, as expected, space is limited in a tiny home. However, the smart layout and amenities made it comfortable and enjoyable for the two of us. We had a wonderful stay and would gladly recommend this tiny home to anyone visiting Chéticamp and Cape Breton. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Wonderful unique place to stay

This tiny house was perfectly decorated, setup, and constructed! It was really fun and added a perfect uniqueness to my mother-daughter adventure. Perfect location and the little patio provided a great little place to enjoy coffee in the mornings.

Good things come in small packages!

A unique stay in a great location. Everything you need in a compact way. You just need to be careful on the ladder with the middle of the night trip to the toilet!

Location!! Amazing views. It was perfect and cute. The only thing I wish is the bedroom window had a screen so we could open it and hear the water. What would make the stay better is if there were condiments for the coffee and tea. We would stay again for sure!

Cool spot

Great location….morning coffee on the boardwalk watching the sunrise… very cool. Great town and close to the park with several restaurants within walking distance. As they stated it is a ladder to get to the loft so some challenges at night but ok. Mattress needs to be improved. Overall if your able to handle a ladder fun spot for a night or 2.

Cute little tiny house. With a shelterred little patio. There is an awesome new sharp kitchen knife i left behind!!!l. The shower is smaller - to go with the tiny house - so you should be so too! Also that has got to be one of the tiniest bathroom sinks ever! (And it’s the only one in the house - so a little awkward for cleaning the well equipped kitchen things). Ladder to the loft FYI. Overall a lovely place to stay with wifi and câble TV!! Marc

Unique lodging

Tiny home is as reflected. Great location & property itself has basic amenities although no sink for dishes. Bathroom is also tiny with very narrow bathroom sink but plenty of hot water to clean up & shower. Loft for sleeping was fine although I would recommend possibly bringing an extra blanket. Property is fine for two people who are on the small/short side. If you are a big or tall person, it might be a bit uncomfortable. Outside deck area is nice and ample.

Tiny and Terrific

My husband is 6’3” and while it was tight we still had plenty of room. The location was perfect for enjoying a Cheticamp sunset and within walking distance of restaurants and cafes. The home was clean and we loved having both an indoor and outdoor area to relax. The only thing missing was a screen in the upstairs window to let in some fresh air but keep out the bugs. Instead we used the AC unit. We would definitely return and recommend you give tiny house living a try!

It felt a little gloomy when we arrived. Their pictures made it look much brighter. Would have appreciated a cozier blanket. You need strength to climb the ladder into the loft area where the bed is. Some people with mobility or other issues would not be able to climb the ladder. Not my cup of tea, but I’m sure it would work for others. Read the description carefully, I admit I did not and was surprised that it was actually a tiny house, not a cozy cottage on the water.
