About this property

Babineau Cottage With Ocean And Mountain View

A delightful newly renovated cottage right off the legendary Cabot Trail. Open rooms and ceilings, paired with beautiful hardwood floors- crafted from local rock maple, birch and ash- create a cozy beach atmosphere. The cottage has a full kitchen- including handmade counters atop antique cabinets, in addition to two bedrooms, a washing machine and dryer and a spacious bathroom. A beautiful deck provides the perfect ocean view and ideal location to watch the sunset, BBQ dinner or simply relax. With only a 5 minute drive to the beach and a 15 minute drive to Cape Breton Highlands National Park, there is a wealth of outdoor fun awaiting for families and couples alike.

Clean and spacious house
Check in was confusing. No message on website indicated key would be located in house with door unlocked! Was looking for website message with code access? Bathroom should have a privacy blind for at night. Everything else was a good experience.

Great location for Cape Breton Highlands
This is a fantastic property. You're surrounded by windows, allowing you to enjoy the wonderful view all around! The open layout is fantastic, and enjoying dinners while watching the sunset is a highlight (made me want to eat-in more!). Location is great, right on the cabot trail and close to numerous restaurants and grocery/liquor stores in Cheticamp. Also great as an entry point into the nearby national park. Also great to meet John and his daughter who were very responsive to any questions we had. Excellent stay, would definitely return!
