Our party of retirees thoroughly enjoyed the accommodations. The beds were comfortable, the entire place was super clean and secure, and ample supplies were provided for our use. We greatly appreciated the personal letter and treat, as well as all the information for enjoying the area of Cheticamp. We had outdoor space available and a BBQ which we used. The location was walkable to several restaurants, the boardwalk, shops and sights. The host communicated in a timely manner and offered great information. A wonderful experience in a beautiful part of Cape Breton. Highly recommend.

Comfy, clean, and spacious!
The house was spotless, the beds were very comfortable and the bed linens were really nice and cozy. We loved the big deep bathtub, the washer and dryer, and the recliner sofa. We also loved all the space. It was by far the nicest place we stayed at during our trip!

We had a lovely stay in Chéticamp! The unit is so clean and very comfortable. We felt right at home. The area is amazing. MANY beautiful hiking trails and a short drive to pleasant bay for some whale watching tours. The drive between Chéticamp and Pleasant Bay is beautiful and scenic. Georgina’s home helped to make our first visit to Cape Breton a great experience.

Well appointed accommodation, good location in Cheticamp
When my wife picked out this unit, I had reservations because it is downstairs. Despite being downstairs, there are views of the Cheticamp harbor from 2 bedrooms and it is extremely well furnished, including dishwasher and washer/dryer, well designed and well maintained. Owner was extremely responsive and helpful. Additional pluses include a storage shed—we kept our bicycles there, it’s walking distance from several good restaurants and two venues with live music. A pleasant boardwalk along the harbor starts across the street. A downside is that the patio is in the back with views of the parking area, and the police station (we felt secure, however, because of proximity to police). Overall we had a great stay—I’d definitely stay here again!

Fantastic accommodations for a family. Everything you need . Great location, spotless and easy check in process. Don’t let the idea of staying in a basement fool you. It was bright and comfortable . Heat pump keeps the place warm or cold, whatever you like. Would highly recommend.

Perfectly clean apartment! Really recommend it!
We where overwhelmed with the nice and so clean apartment. There was also a book with all things to do in the area, and the history of chéticamp. We where with 4 kids. The rooms are big enough, good beds for 6 people. You can not get a better stay.

I would definitely recommend this property. Close to the national park but also in town so good for shops and food etc. The property was easy to find and access. It was very clean and tidy.

Great spot!
This was an excellent spot! Top notch in every way. Everything seemed brand new and if anyone else had ever stayed there, there was no evidence of it The location is also perfect- right at the start of Chetticamp boardwalk and close to the grocery store as well as the restaurants and shops. Georgina was very attentive in responding to emails and the information she leaves for her guests is most entertaining and helpful. All around 100%

Clean, bright, well stocked unit for family
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the basement unit. The unit was spotless, well supplied with everything we needed and in a great location to explore local sights. The bedroom with 2 beds was great for our children (no bunk beds- no arguing over who gets which bunk!). The living space was cozy with an open concept into the kitchen which was just perfect. We appreciated the ease of check in and flexibility in the check out. Thanks so much for a stress free getaway!
