Sister's getaway

This home and property was beautiful and provided all the comforts of a home away from home. It was exceptionally clean, well organized, comfortable beds, the kitchen had all the amenities and appliances we needed to make meals. The hosts have thoughtfully provided down to the finest details. We had a minor hiccup with check-in as the lockbox was a bit of a challenge but the host was very quick to respond...thank you, Mathew! We would highly recommend this property.

Excellent cottage

Great clean new cottage. I think the listing does not do it Justice the kitchen has all the appliances you need beautiful dining table nice living room. The ground floor did not even use the basement. The house was more than sufficient for my wife and two kids. We used it as a base for visiting the Cabot trail and Luis book.

Perfect getaway!

We were only there for two nights but this is a place I would rent for a longer stay. It was perfect. Very clean and loved the way the place was decorated. Had some toys for my 5 yr old and the kids loved playing air hockey. Kitchen was spacious and the sunroom had an amazing view. Very short drive to Baddeck.

Little Narrows Getaway

This cottage is amazing. We were travelling with a toddler and the toys were a huge hit. Private beach - where else do you have that. Loved the sunroom. We spent most of our time out there. Plenty of room for 6 adults and a very active toddler. Highly recommend this cottage. Thanks.

Perfect

Our short stay of of 4 nights was made extra special by the lovely accommodations at Lakeside Retreat. The screened in sunroom was especially useful and the karge round table where we snacked and played games. The bedrooms were comfortable and we appreciated the extra fans in each room during the hot weather we experienced. One minor criticism would be that an additional shower unit would make life easier for a large group. Bathrooms were adequate but only one shower in a high edged bathtub made it difficult for older guests so a walk in shower perhaps in the laundry room would be very benefical. Otherwise, everything else was perfect for our short stay.

Spectacular home, fantastic view

We had an incredible stay at this property with our infant and our parents. The home was clean, well stocked, large and comfortable. It was everything we needed and more to enjoy our Cape Breton escape! We particularly enjoyed the screened in dining room where we could enjoy meals and relax with all the pleasures of outside, without the bugs!

As advertised

Rented this location to do a rainbow trout fishing trip. Great location with a boat launch on the property. All amenities of home. Well equipped kitchen. Beds are very comfortable. I’d highly recommend this to anyone. This would be a great family vacation rental. Big yard and access to the lake. Quiet safe area.

About the host

Hosted by Matthew

Originally from London, Canada we fell in love with Cape Breton. With so much to offer all year-round, our home is centrally located to enjoy all that Cape Breton has to offer. When spending time at our cottage, we explore the area, take in the local dining and seafood, hike in the Highlands National Park, golf at the world class courses and otherwise just enjoy time “away” from the business of the world.
