I really hate to give this property a low rating because it could be a wonderful place to stay if we had gotten a good nights sleep. It’s on the water, the people are really nice and it was super clean; however, it was so hot in our room that we had a miserable night. There was AC in the bedroom but it put out as much hot air as cool so we turned it off. On a better note, the little restaurant on premises has an excellent breakfast and a good cup of coffee.

Location it was great for us, just on Calbot Trail. Checking easy. The view from the cabin amazing. Beds ok, clean. Anything else I didn't like. Full of bugs and little dirty.

The unit we rented (9A) looked like an old fishing cabin inside complete with cobwebs everywhere. It was basically an old basement apartment. The newest thing inside was the TV. My family did not enjoy the stay, though the staff was friendly and helpful. Expected more for what we paid.

If you decide to stay here be sure you get one of the cottages on the water. I thought that is what I booked through Expedia but ended up in a unit under another that was essentially the basement. While it did have windows that looked at the water we were way above the shoreline. The unit was old and needed updating. The bed was comfortable. Shower and bathroom adequate. There was a rat trap outside the door to the unit. The area had limited dining options. The scenery is lovely but amenities lacking.

Cottages were very tired and run down. They needed a lot of work. Tv in the living room you could only watch from the kitchen table. Staff were friendly but places needs a lot of work.

Beautiful spot right on the Cabot Trail. Cute, rustic cabin for an overnight stay with private deck that overlooks the water. The beds could use an upgrade, though.

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!
