Clean, comfortable, private, cabin, easy access Cabot Trail

Trailside cabins are set back from road, in a private setting. Interiors are spotlessly clean, efficient with everything you need, nicely decorated. Private access path to rocky ocean front. Very accomodating owners.

Perfect Getaway

My wife and i found this to be a perfect little cabin in the North woods. It is in a quiet little camp. Great place to relax, when exploring, the Cabot Trail.

Peaceful Getaway

Great location! Super staff and owners. Wonderful mountain trail and short walk to a “postcard” rocky beach. Simple accommodations but has everything you need in a quiet wooded setting!

Great Cape Breton Hide-away

We had a great time at the cottages - friendly, helpful hosts, great location - 20 minutes to Cape Smokey. The cottages are comfy and well appointed. Neat location in the woods, especially in the winter.
