Wonderful property!! The cabin was perfect -- very clean and had everything we needed. The hosts were so helpful and quick to answer questions. Highly recommended.
Beautiful property to stay at. The cottage was exactly what we needed after long days of hiking. The cottage was clean and has everything you need for a home away from home. The owner was very helpful and responded immediately to all my questions.
Very new and very well built. Very clean. Within walking distance to two great Atlantic salmon pools that I had to myself each day. Will be back in October
The Margaree Valley is visually stunning and no more than in Autumn with the leaves changing colour. The property is located on the river with a very easy walk down to the Boars Back Salmon pool.
The accommodation was first rate. WiFi and cell coverage 4 bars good. Very comfortable beds. Owners were charming and immediately answered any questions we had.
No hesitation in recommending this spot.
A wonderful stay! This property is a home away from home. Having stayed at many vacation rentals over many years, I can confidently say that this is a stay not to be missed. The property is as advertised and the extra touches are so appreciated. Just a heads up that the bathtub is 2/3rds size of a normal tub so unless you are a petite adult you will not get a comfortable soak. If you have children that need a bath, this would be perfect. The hosts are great at communication and provide a great experience. Passionately recommended!
Very clean. Nice and quiet. Exactly as advertised. Will be back in June 2025 and October 2025. New homes. Very very well built. Beautiful view of the river valley. Hot water works great. Easy to get to. Would very much recommend to everyone. Thank You !
