About this property
New Log Home with Gorgeous Ocean View in Historic Acadian Village
L'Ardoise and surrounding villages have wild berries for the enthusiastic picker - strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, dewberries - even cranberries and foxberries. Free clam digging is available within fourteen miles, and copious oysters on a tide beach within five miles. Concerts and Ceilidhs are available in many locations throughout Cape Breton, some featuring the unique brand of Cape Breton fiddle music. Fortress Louisbourg is a world class historic re-enactment of a French Acadian fortress town. The beach in L'Ardoise, in the hamlet of Point Michaud, six miles from us, is 1.5 miles long, advertised as world class in quality. Fishing from shore for mackerel is available in the 300 meter canal connecting the Atlantic with the Bras d'Or Lakes, about 7 miles from our house. wild speckled (brook) trout live in every stream and pond. We have a 120 degree view of the Atlantic and the harbour.
In the front yard there is a badminton net, quite likely on the ground. Stakes are available with the net, if it needs to be erected, and equipment is in the ping pong room.

About the host
Hosted by Jonathan Tetherly

I am a widower living in Chicopee, Massachusetts, a retired jail chaplain, retired track and field official, a backyard maple syrup producer, and farmers market vendor.

I am an ordained minister of the United Church of Christ.
Why they chose this property
In 1980, when my wife and I wanted a vacation house, L'Ardoise was affordable. We bought a very small house. in 2005, when we had more resources, we took it down and built the roomy house advertised in this website.
What makes this property unique
Spectacular ocean view, interior pine paneling, friendly neighbours, variety of experiences with nature, your choice of many Cape Breton tourist activities or quiet relaxation.
