This is a very rustic area of Cabot Trail but we thought we were getting a cabin near the ocean like the photos showed. Instead we had a motel-like room at the road.

I booked two rooms for a getaway with friends. Their room had not been cleaned, there was no fire alarm. Their porch had cigarette butts and Pepsi bottles. Their room had not been cleaned and their pillows smelled dirty. My room, had a hole through to the outside. The deadbolt wouldn’t lock. You can hear everything in the rooms above you. The bed was ROCKHARD and when I sat on it, it broke. When I looked down it was clear it had been broken a while based on the damage to the floor. I did not address it until the morning because of the time we went to bed. I understand they are renovating but this place needs a complete gut with new beds. We asked to talk to someone the next day and have yet to be contacted about it. Beautiful beach but difficult to get down to.

I absolutely loved this place, and I wish I had been here for more than just one night. The room was beautiful, it had a balcony, and I could see the Atlantic Ocean at a distance from my balcony. It was walkable down to the ocean the next morning for sunrise. The night that I checked in, the restaurant had already closed, but the pub was still going. Despite that, the pub was able to serve me lobster fettuccine, which was one of the best dinners I had on my trip. The beach resort is also close to the Cape Breton Highlands National Park visitor center in Ingonish, and it was close to two hikes that I wanted to do: Middle Head and Franey Trails. I was able to complete both hikes by 9:30 AM in perfect weather with maximum solitude.

Very needy. Lots of garbage, run down units, entrance door that was impossible to open and close. The positive thing was that the receptionist tried very hard to fix the TV and bring us a lamp so we could read.
