A wonderful experience

Everything exactly as described and more. The setting was beautiful, incredible views and sunsets. The home is everything you could want, clean, great layout, comfortable and well stocked. Michael was a fabulous host and I honestly can’t think of anything he can do to improve the experience for his guest. Thank you for opening your home for others to enjoy this breathtaking area.

Wonderful views, very clean

Michael’s home was very clean and well stocked and the ocean view was magnificent. It was a bit of driving as we went back and forth to Cheticamp several times but beautiful and peaceful at the home. Michael was an excellent host making sure everything was in order and that we had everything we needed.

Lovely Experience

Our stay was wonderful. The home was lovely with an amazing view. Morning coffee in the kitchen looking at the water was very special. The location is outside of towns to the north and south but a quick drive that allows you to take in the views.

Wonderful Experience

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. I wanted to show off the Cabot Trail to some of my Aussie friends and boy...this place really helped!! Everything we needed was provided and more. The accommodation was immaculately clean and the location was gorgeous. Sitting on the deck watching the sunset was so lovely and watching the lobster fisherman collecting their traps in the morning was icing on the cake!! What a view. The host was easy to communicate with and provided all the information we needed for our stay. We feel very privileged to have stayed here. I could go on and on.....but just go and see it for yourself!! You won't regret it.

Picturesque location and views….

The sunsets are spectacular from any room of the house. It is a really clean and they supply nice quality linens. Location is super close to the Cabot trail and the beautiful town of Inverness. Loved being close to Cheticamp for misc groceries, the liquor store. Michael is really helpful and quick to respond to any questions. Although we did not prepare meals there we did have snacks. Other than the many butter knives there is only one other and it’s a bread knife. Not a deal breaker, we bought one at the store for cheese, lemons and limes.
