Great place to stay. Quiet cottages that are very modern and clean (no musty smell often found in cabins). The family that runs the place are friendly, helpful and take great pride in their family land.

Great location and loved the beach there but our cottage was very rustic and could probably use an upgrade. It had everything we needed, maybe air conditioning would be nice.

Our cottage was spacious and had the most stunning view of the water! The beach is a short walk away in the back of the property too. For some reason the water in the sink in the bathroom didn't work at all but that didn't bother us. We just used the sink in the kitchen :) Would definitely stay here again and recommend it.

Love love love this place. Highly recommend. Well equipped units with a kitchen, living room, 2 bedrooms & a small Weber grill on the picnic table outside your unit. Incredible views from the units which sit on a hill overlooking the ocean. The star of this place is the dune & beach. Shallow warm clear water great for a swim. We did a couple sunset campfires on the beach & they were the highlight of our trip. Many repeat guests to this little island gem. The owner Colin is a solid dude who really takes pride in the place. Staff were friendly & helpful. This is a wonderful place to use as your home base for a Cape Breton experience. We will definitely return to this place.
