Chalets are all natural wood with a "rustic" feel. Log cabin style with modern amenities. Very clean and comfortable. Property has a private access to the beach area across the street. One would not swim there due to the rip current however great to walk along the beach.

Shower didn’t work well, was tricky to use and didn’t feel reliable (but we did manage to use it). Virtual desk communication was non-existent. The power went out so it would have been nice to have flashlights or candles in the cabins. But overall, everyone we met was super nice! We enjoyed our stay.

The chalet we rented was very clean, roomy and comfortable. However 3 things ended up us rating it less than five stars. First, the check-in. We arrived at 4 pm and our chalet was not ready. Very difficult to obtain a valid explanation. They ended up having us move to another chalet. Second, our shower was absolutely useless. No water pressure whatsoever. Third, the tv was not working. For the price we paid, we were expecting more

We stayed in one of the motel rooms, and we had a refrigerator and a microwave. They provided dishes and silverware for us. It would have been nice to have a sink nearby instead of having to wash dishes in the bathroom. It was nice to have a separate bedroom, and it was comfortable and quiet.

For the cost, the 2BR chalet was poor to fair value. It seemed to lack any recent upgrades with the exception of maybe the mini-split unit. I'm sure they were awesome many years ago, but they are showing their age. While the futon in the sitting area makes some sense for extra sleep space, it is poor sitting for any period of time. This trade-off, in my opionion, was a bad choice.

I thought I reserved a chalet with cooking facilities. I was in a motel room with a microwave and no stove. Only sink was in the bathroom. The room did have some very basic coffee and utensils. The communication is only through online emails and leaving phone messages.

This cabin was very clean!! The private beach access was a great surprise. The beach is beautiful!! Our only complaint would be that the electrical outlets need to be updated. They did not hold our plugs in place very well. Made it difficult to charge our devices. Also there were no USB outlets. Overall a great place to stay with a family.

Great property. The Chalets were spacious and comfortable. Close to the beach. The only problem is lack of communication. We had a problem with check in and when we phoned no one answered. Voice main only and the message said they would get back to us in a day. The problem was solved but there was unnecessary stress. Overall, I would highly recommend this as a place to stay.

The chalet was a great spot for us to stopover on our journey on the Cabot Trail. We had all of the basics and the beach access was a lovely surprise. One thing that would have been great was to have access to a fire pit for a campfire. Otherwise, everything was great.
