Excellent location in Cheticamp near restaurants n places of interest. Very clean and easy communication with our host. Would definitely stay at this location again.
The apartment was perfect: beautifully decorated, fully equipped, comfortable beds, delicious coffee, and close to everything. The host shared several tips on places to eat and things to do. If traveling through the area again, I’d definitely stay with JS again.

Lovely cozy spot for our stop-over. Glad we found this place, comfortable, clean and close to coffee shop and dining options.
Nous avons passé un très beau séjour dans cet hébergement. La communication avec la propriétaire était facile. Le logement très propre à notre arrivée. Les consignes sont claires et nous avons pu avoir le logement plus tôt. Nous étions 4 adultes. Le logement est un peu petit si vous désirez y passé un long séjour. Nous avons séjourné 2 jours et c'était parfait pour nos besoins. C'est bien situé sur la Cabot trail. Nous pouvions se rendre à pieds à plusieurs restaurants et à une dizaine de minutes en voiture du parc National. Le seul point négatif que nous avons remarqué et L'insonorisation du logement. Nous entendions très bien les voisins.
La Cale was a great stay! The house was sparkling clean and beautiful. Everything you could have needed was thought of. Extra towels, linens, coffee, tea, and kitchen items. Stephanie and Joleen had many great suggestions of places to visit and eat. 5 minutes from the Cape Breton National highlands park for full days of hiking and great views. Great communication answered messages quickly. Street is a bit noisy however being right on the marina is lovely.

Great for a couple of golfers that don’t need a whole lot of special features, yet everything was there. It’s all good.

This is a wonderful little gem on the waterfront of Chéticamp! Well-kept, well-furnished, and a very friendly and responsive host. Thank you for a great stay and for this beautiful space you've created and maintained.
For 2 couples travelling together, the accommodation was excellent. We appreciated the well stocked cupboards and access to the Park and the community. The only problem I had was with communication through VRBO when I tried to ‘reply’ to messages. We would stay again.
The apartment is comfortable, well appointed and in a great location for exploring the Cheticamp and Western Cabot Trail areas.The supermarket is two minutes away for buying provisions and Cheticamp itself has great restaurants and coffee shops. We certainly enjoyed our stay.
The apartment was very clean and well appointed. The kitchen is very spacious,well equipped and has excellent appliances. I highly recommend this property.
Easy to find and provided everything we needed. Clean and comfortable.

We stayed for one night with my family, the property is right off the main road (Cabot trail). There is some traffic noise but it did not bother us. The rooms and beds were comfy. Kitchen is stocked with basic supplies if you want to heat up/ make something. We only stayed one night and did not need to use the kitchen. There are a few restaurants nearby as well as a Coop where we picked up some essentials for our road trip.
There are laundry facilities with detergent provided. Bathroom was clean and had shampoo and conditioner, but was out of soap/ bodywash. It was not an issue for me as I was carrying some. One unusual thing in the bathroom was the window curtain did not go all the way down and only covered 3/4th of the window. Since this window faces the bay, it was weird to not have full privacy. We just hung up a towel over the window, so it was not a this major concern. A few hooks to hang towels/ clothes in the bathroom would also have be useful.
The zodiac whale watching cruise is located right next door and was super convenient as we had booked this excursion. Parking is available next to the property.
There is a short boardwalk next to the property, where you can stroll and watch the boats and the sunset.
Overall the location of the property is great and it is excellent value for your money for a few nights stay in Cheticamp. A few minor additions/ changes would enhance the experience.
