I hesitate to give my honest appraisal of this place and home because I don't want it to be discovered by too many people! I would like to keep it all to myself. suffice to say it was the best house and vacation ever! whales, moose, seals, eagles, satellite radio, no TV (yey!), beautiful views, wonderful rockhounding, great people. a fabulous experience. Thank you Vicki for sharing it with us.

We loved our stay so much that we extended it for a few days! This house is spectacular, and is the best vacation rental we have ever had. It is beautiful, and wonderfully equipped and furnished. We spent many hours on the deck (and even saw whales!) and the beach. Cape Breton is glorious and a great community. We hiked and explored and went to many music events. We can't wait to return! Thanks for one of the best vacations ever.

We just returned from a fabulous week in Nova Scotia (July, 2007) and truly enjoyed your home. The pictures on your site were true to the beautiful details of the house, except the views from the deck they were even more spectacular. We enjoyed a very late sunset every night, few days there were more than 20 whales out in the ocean. One of the best parts of the property is the walk down through the wooded path to the private beach that gives you a great work out on the way back! The kids loved that part and we returned with quite a selection of beautiful stones from the beach. Everything we needed was there, we cooked in for several meals and enjoyed the local area restaurants for a few of the days, especially the Red Shoe Pub between 5:00-7:00 pm when they had entertainment during dinner. Glenora Distillery was also another favorite between 1:00-3:00 pm. Grocery store nearby in Inverness had what we needed and the Bear Paw gift shop was one of the nicest around. We enjoyed the Friday night square dance in SW Margaree, a day trip on the Cabot Trail, fishing at Old Miller's trout pond and lots of visits with new and old friends. We hope to return one day.

Beautifully decorated new home and property overlooking the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The adults and children in our family particularly enjoyed the short hike through the woods down to the private beach! The house is located close to town but feels quite secluded. We felt quite rested from the fresh air and beautiful scenery this lovely vacation home has to offer!
