The owners were extremely accommodating. We arrived late and they had already closed their laundry room, but they open the laundry room and just told us to lock it up when we were finished.

Great location with a short walk down to Lawrence's Beach, which rarely had more than a dozen people on it. Great for nice walks. Cottage was compact, but had everything we needed. Good central location to explore the west side of Cape Breton. Steps to Ceilidh trail head.

What a great little cottage! Older but well cared for and clean. The view and beach access can’t be beat! This was one of our best beaches on our trip…it was a beautiful hot afternoon and we swam and played in the waves for a long time.

Port hood has warm beaches

This little gem of a stay had fantastic views of the ocean. Great setup of outdoor seating including a bbq, Adirondack chairs and picnic table. The beach being so close was great for early morning walks and after dinner walks. Colin was wonderful in getting in touch for check in.

The cottage was small and dated but very clean. The view from the front porch was awesome! The property description online indicated that it was air conditioned - it was NOT. We had to sleep with the windows open and a fan. Not quite what we expected for the price we paid.
