Nanook’s Den Escape to the beauty of the mountains Internet, GBTV

We have decided to continue our winter rates until June 1st – Book Now!"
Nestled amidst the majestic peaks, this secluded home offers a serene retreat away from village life. Surrounded by the rugged beauty of mountains, it provides unparalleled tranquility and a direct connection to nature's wonders.

Step outside, and you'll find yourself within easy reach of hiking trails that wind through pine-scented forests and lead to breathtaking viewpoints. The crisp mountain air invigorates as you explore these paths, each step a journey into the untouched wilderness.

Come winter, the landscape transforms into a playground for snow enthusiasts. With snowmobiles revving nearby, adventure beckons just beyond your doorstep. Imagine the thrill of gliding through pristine snowfields, the quiet thrill of discovering hidden valleys blanketed in winter's embrace.

Back at the house, the views of snow-capped peaks or vibrant autumn foliage, depending on the season. Inside, cozy spaces await, where evenings are spent recounting the day's adventures or simply soaking in the peace that only a mountain retreat can offer.

This home near the mountains is not just a place to live; it's a haven for those who cherish the harmony of nature and the thrill of outdoor exploration, where every season brings its own magic and every day promises a new adventure.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Housekeeping is available on request.

Beautiful serene setting. Convenient to Cape Breton. We were here to take in some of the Celtic Colours and it worked well. Just a note I would add for some it might matte is that larger bedroom is up several steps.

This may be one of our favorite places we have stayed. The property is in pristine condition, and the setting is so peaceful. It is a wonderful place to recover from hiking through Cape Breton. The amenities are vast; Lynn has stocked the home with great detail to attention. There is no doubt that if we are back in the area, we will be staying here again and encouraging others to do the same.

Perfect family getaway

The photos of this place do not do it justice. Our stay was lovely! The hosts were quick and so easy to communicate with, and their guidebook in the house added to their charm! So much detail, cultural respect and sharing. The darkness of the night sky was an added bonus as we were there during a meteor shower. Had everything we could have needed. I’d highly recommend :)
