The cottage was incredibly clean and exactly as pictured. It has so many modern conveniences - air conditioning/heat pump unit, WiFi, streaming TV - and a gorgeous setting overlooking Bras d’Or Lake from its spacious deck and huge windows. We grilled a few dinners and enjoyed self-made breakfasts before driving off to various sites along the Cabot Trail and nearby. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the gas grill was pristine. Janet was quick to answer questions via text, and check-in and check-out were simple. The nearby Gaelic Inn has a pub and also a small NSLC (beer, wine, liquor, snacks) for quick fill-ups. Most towns have a Foodmart or Co-op for basic groceries, if you haven’t stocked up at Sobey’s or Atlantic Superstore in North Sydney or Port Hawkesbury. We looked forward to dinners and sunsets here every evening, and watching (feeding!) the bald eagles most mornings. Definitely recommend staying here!
