Lovely cottage with an amazing view. The host thought of everything including a well stocked pantry in case you don’t get groceries before you arrive. We really enjoyed our stay here and would certainly recommend it to our family and friends.
We totally enjoyed our stay at Veronica’s Place The scenery is breathtaking, well stocked, and very clean. Would recommend to anyone. Aileen was a wonderful host, very accommodating. Will definitely stay there again 😀👍
The cottage and surrounding area are absolutely beautiful. Aileen maintains a beautiful property, and is nearby to help with any needs. I've stayed in several locations across Cape Breton Island, and this is by far my favourite.

The cabin was beautiful with every possible amenity. The owner was available but provided lots of privacy. The local view is beautiful and quiet. The roads to the cabin are a little rough.
Lovely place with great views, quiet and relaxing.
Wonderful host . Well stocked with thoughtful treats. A great place to rest and recharge. Great location.
If you’re looking for a place to getaway this is it.
Veronica’s Place is even better than advertised! The cottage is gorgeous and has everything you can possibly need. Aileen is a gem. The property is pristine and it’s so peaceful and serene. I plan to go back in the Fall.
We had a fantastic week - Aileen was a great host - her thoughtfulness, hospitality and attention to detail were clear from the moment we arrived! The cottage had everything we needed and the view of the lake was beautiful!! The area is great for biking, kayaking, hiking and touring but also a great place to relax - we will definitely be back! Thanks Aileen
I really enjoyed my stay, I wished it was longer. Such a wonderful host! Thoughtful, respectful and so kind. Everything i needed was there. It was incredibly comfortable, the bed is like a hug :) Thank you for a wonderful first experience!

The location along the Bras d'Or Lakes is amazing. The cottage is adorable and immaculate. Lots of local wildlife; geese, beaver, and King Fishers greeted me on my first night. The owner is lovely, and very accommodating. I can't wait to return. A definite 10 out of 10!!

Beautiful cottage overlooking the lake. Fully equipped kitchen, everything clean and comfortable. Kayaks and canoe also available, but bring bug spray. Location is a bit remote, but still accessible to all of Cape Breton.
A lovely property in a gorgeous location. Very quiet - hardly any traffic noise as it is off the main road. A beautiful oasis of calm. We had a wonderful three nights here as part of a road trip and could happily have stayed much longer. The kitchen was very well stocked. Aileen was welcoming and helpful, we couldn't have asked for anything more.
The view from the house is exceptional. It's a stand-alone house with a front porch overlooking the water. It's away from the hustle and bustle of tourism which brought peace, calm, and tranquility after a day immersed in the sights and sounds of Cape Breton, the Cabot Trail, and the National Park. Our host Aileen was an added bonus. She is a joy to interact with and helped make our stay more pleasant.
The cottage is absolutely beautiful and very well-equipped, and the property manager is extremely kind and welcoming. A beautiful getaway with a stunning view that is within a short drive of stores/gas/eateries, as well as cultural events in Port Hawkesbury, Judique, Baddeck, and the Gaelic College. Would definitely return!
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was wonderful.
The house is really well equiped to have an amazing vacation. Flora has thought of everything to make our stay unforgettable.
Thank you… it was great !

Cottage was better than advertised- clean, well equipped and beautifully decorated. It was almost like being at home, except that it was in beautiful Cape Breton.
Woke up every morning to a view of the beautiful Bras d’Or. Within reasonable reach of most areas on Cape Breton.
Excellent rental cottage. Very new, clean and organized. Aileen is a very welcoming host with lots of interesting information about the area. She has equipped the cottage with everything you could possibly need and then some. The view of the lake is beautiful and the stars at night are spectacular.
The location is excellent. Very centrally located in Cape Breton with lots of easy day trips for exploring without long drives.
Very quiet and very comfortable. We would definitely book this again when returning for a visit.
While a little further away than originally thought, this precious cottage makes up in charm and comfort. We had noted previous reviews that we ought to do groceries ahead of arrival, so came prepared. However, owner had seen to supply more than i could have imagined. She is such a caring soul... we enjoyed our stay in this beautiful cottage.
