Beautiful view from the cottage, staff was excellent (particularly David who was very accommodating). The only drawback was the people on the cottage above us whose kids kept stomping late in the night. I think the management should put it in policy to be mindful of other guests. It did not really matter to us as we were up quite late, but for ithers it may have been an issue. Overall, it was a good and worthwhile experience.

Our cabin was great, amazing view of the water with large windows and balcony. Very clean. Only complaint was restaurant service. Took 30 minutes just to get cup of plain coffee and another 30 minutes (total of 1 hour) to get eggs, toast, hash browns. The meal was cold except for warm hash browns. And we were the only customers!

This was above and beyond our expectations. The cutest place to stay on the Cabot Trail im sure of it! In addition, it was so clean, had amazing views of the water and you can catch the most beautiful sunset from the properties little restaurant balcony. I will be coming back to Nova Scotia just to stay here again!

Functional lodging for one night's stay
Fine for one night, but I don't know about an extended stay. Stand-alone air conditioner unit took up a lot of floor space, and intake required window to be open-- which meant wet bedding when a little rainstorm blew in. Restaurant is small, and several things on the menu we're not available. Beautiful views from the room and restaurant windows.

Staying at this cottage was an interesting experience. The cottage is well-equipped with everything you need, including the ability to cook your own meals. The cozy decorations add a warm and pleasant touch to the atmosphere. From the outside, you can see the ocean, and the lower level is closer to the water, but families with young children aren’t allowed to stay there for safety reasons. A friendly tip: avoid booking Room 7. It’s the only room with another unit above it. The view is obstructed by trees, blocking the ocean view, and you won’t know who’s staying above you. In our case, the upstairs neighbors were dragging luggage and running around late into the night, which made it hard to get any rest.

Great location
They’re rustic cottages but the location was excellent with a great balcony with water views. Great way to end the day watching the sunset over the water.

This property is beautiful and well located for exploring the area around Antigonish. Inside the room everything looks wonderful and the view from the cottage balcony is outstanding.. Only caution is for those who are mobility challenged. The bed is very high and difficult to get into (I'm 5"6'). The tub is also high sided and it was difficult to climb in and out.

Bathroom sink has no stopper and either water or drain has odor. Bathroom VERY small. No where to hang or put HBA bag. Poor water flow in kitchen sink. Portable air conditioner leaked and sign on it says to empty bucket so it doesn't overflow onto the floor. It was very clean though, restaurant seafood was delicious and staff very accommodating, owner friendly and personable. Not sure I would stay in that cabin again. May try a new cabin.
