Great place and amazing courteous staff
This Inn/Cabin/Hotel is a great spot to stay if you're touring the Cape Breton Island. We were visiting the western area of the island (CB Highlands National Park nearest to Cheticamp) so this was a good and affordable place to stay while we were in this area. What we absolutely found amazing was the impeccable customer service of the staff. When we arrived, we were offered to stay in one of the cabin if we wanted to but chose instead to stay in a very quaint and comfortable room in the main lodge. Unfortunately, we soon found out that there was no hot water and it was already past midnight and the staff was away. Made one phone call and the owner was quick to come over, talk with us and fix the problem. There was a lot a hot water after his visit. Very interesting older gentleman to talk to. The room was extremely comfortable and we truly enjoyed our night. We will definitely be back to this place.

Great spot to get away!
My wife and I had a wonderful 3 night stay. Staff were very accommodating and friendly. The property which consists of 250 acres of farmland and forest is mostly open for your enjoyment. Looking out from our cabin porch we could see the horses and highland cattle grazing in a close by field. The animals are all healthy and happy looking. We took wonderful walks around the property daily and met lots of friendly CFA's along the way. The cabins are a bit dated but still comfortable. Cleanliness was on a par with other places we stayed this trip. Personally we thought it could be improved on. But early Sept is late in the season here so... also remember the cabins are used by fisherman often who are coming and going with all their gear. Every morning we could get coffee at the office by 7:30am. In the dining area you can also get breakfast and or dinner in the evening. I would recommend this place to anyone just looking to get away. We enjoyed our stay!

A very pleasant stay
We stayed only one night here. Although the property is a bit older the buildings appear well cared for and the setting is lovely. We had a very clean and comfortable room . The staff were friendly and helpful. We had a lovely meal in the dining room. All in all a very pleasant stay and we would recommend it.

6/10 Good

The area was lovely and the people were great, but the cabin desperately needed some upgrades and there were a lot of bugs inside it.

Reminded me of visiting Grandpa
Comfortable beds and a friendly and helpful staff makes this quirky place that much better. If you book understanding this is a very old house with little upgrades, you will be fine. Yes the walls are thin so you hear every creak but it's part of the charm. It reminds me so much of my grandparents house in Ireland when I was young. The traditional music at the barn on site on Friday and the music in the living room on Saturday was fabulous too.

We really enjoyed our stay. The food at supper time was great, along with the service. The breakfast food was very tasty. It was a very nice property with kind staff. We look forward to making another trip there someday.

Beautiful Area
Was an amazing area, very beautiful. The woman who worked the check in counter when we checked in and out went above and beyond. Was also the same person who waited on us in the dining area. She was simply amazing. Will be back for sure!!

We were looking forward to going to the barn for music but found out we missed it by a night! ( Only on Friday). It’s way off the beaten path, so plan on meals at the inn.
