Pros: - Beautiful location with view on the water, about a 20 minute drive from downtown Antigonish, close to Dunns and Pomquet beaches. - Has all the necessary pots, pans and utensils to cook your own meals - ideal space for a couple or a single person looking for an intimate place to spend a few days. Cons: - Expensive - Loft bed accessible by a ladder that, when in place, blocks access to the bathroom. - Bedding would be greatly improved by adding a comforter and better pillows - Very low ceiling in the shower. If you are over 5'7, it will be rather uncomfortable. - Very small hot water tank - Door can blow open in the middle of the night during stormy periods.

Everything was excellent. We were especially happy with all the little things that you just don't think about. We are already looking at when we can return.

We had a great stay here. We did a week long road trip of eastern Canada. We stopped here for the night after doing the Cabot Trail.

We had an absolute wonderful time! Beautiful area, they thought of everything we might need. Thank you! Can't wait to come back!

Overall, it was a pleasant experience. I love being outside, so I sat on the deck and did everything outside as much as possible. The one problem I had with the place is that it is new, and the plastic is off-gassing. This was a reason why I chode to be outside so much. By Wednesday, I had a terrible hack and cough, and I’m still sick today. I suggest opening the place up during the winter months when you're not busy to get rid of the plastic smell. I have friends who I know couldn't have stayed there due to the off-gassing. I also found the place a bit cluttered. Although it looked nice, there are some things you could probably take away that people don’t need when you’re traveling. It’s nice to have shelving to put things on, and I found that was lacking.
