About this property

Boat house on the sea.

Boathouse is literally sitting on the ocean. With high ceilings, wood floors and beautiful views makes it one of Cheticamp's best rentals. Walking distance to Whale Cruises, restaurants, bars, and cofee shop, property is perfect. Only 10 minutes to the National Park. You will fall in love with the view, the ocean, the sal air and the sound of boats going by with their catch of lobster. Make this space your central location to visit the island. This is ground level, upstairs another rental.

There are two bedrooms in this rental and one king size bed in the open concept living room. There is another unit on the second floor.

Parking is street side. It is very well lit and we have never had any issues, it is a very safe area:)

The downtown area is quite nice and you are situated right on the boardwalk. Please take the time to take a stroll by the water and drop in at Marquerite boutique et Provisions for a fresh coffee and locally baked goods.

Very unique place - great location

This was definitely one of the best spots we stayed on our trip from St. John's to Toronto. To be right there, over the ocean was a real trip. Comfortable accommodation, close to restaurants. A perfect stop along the Cabot Trail.

Cheticamp houseboat

We were delighted with the layout and the view. The sound of the waves splashing against the wharf was very soothing. Beds were comfy, kitchen was nicely stocked. Good communication with the owner. Overall, a lovely place.

Such a lovely place to stay! Right on the ocean, wonderful view of Cheticamp Island. It was fun to sit on the deck and watch the cattle, herons and eagles on the island. The hosts were very helpful, sending messages with all information needed including things to do and where to shop and eat in the area. Very restful!

Loved the concept of this accommodation as it was built on the water with a very large deck. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset while on the deck. Having several choices for places to eat was good - we enjoyed a great seafood from next door. Would be good to know that the one bedroom only had a single bed. Overall very good!

We had a wonderful stay at the boathouse. The best part was the deck. It was huge and overlooked Cheticamp Harbour. It was beautiful, quiet and the perfect spot for coffee in the morning. There were plenty of restaurants around, whale watchng was walking distance and the national park right down to road. We had a wonderful stay.

Love this place!

Just finished our second stay at this wonderful property. It is truly lovely. We enjoy sitting outside on the deck watching the boats and the family of seagulls that is set up residence on the edge of the decking. Cheticamp is a great little town. We will be back.

family time in the highlands

This was a perfect choice for home base to explore the highlands with our two young adult children. A short drive to the famous Skyline trail and the beautiful drive beyond. Also great location for whale watching tour that was basically next door. And yes, we saw whales (and a leatherback turtle). Large deck to sip wine, watch the cows on Cheticamp Island, and enjoy the sunset. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect Stop

This was a last minute booking for one night and it was pretty seamless. Check-in was easy and it was exactly what we needed. We suggest having a little milk in the fridge for making tea and coffee…that would be a nice touch.
