This is the 3rd time that I’ve stayed at this lovely house in Jamesville, Nova Scotia on Cape Breton Island. It has by far the best view of the Bras d’Or Lake and the countryside since it sits on top of a little hill. The house is immaculate and very well equipped with numerous kitchen items, new appliances, comfy beds and linens, large flat screen tv and then there is, once again, that fantastic million dollar view too! The Landlord Kevin is a gracious host who was always there for any questions. His check in and check out process was so super easy too. I hope to return to one of his properties in the future again

MILLION DOLLAR VIEW!!! The view from the covered porch was astounding! We had coffee out there, lunch out there, watched the sunrise & the sunset. Spray the deck with the yard digger first thing in the morning and the breeze took care of the rest! Host was the best communicator we had ever experienced! Website gave us everything at our fingertips! Home was very clean and well stocked! Perfect jumping off point for the Cabot Trail! Honestly did not want to leave!

Wonderful views and location

We had an amazing time staying at the cottage. The views over the massive lake made it seem you were on the ocean! The location was perfect for us - central to everywhere we wanted to go and very close to our favourite town Baddeck. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Cape Breton!

Breathtaking Views

One of the very best vacation stays we had. The cottage was lovely and well equipped with all we needed - kitchen supplies , comfortable beds, heating & air conditioning, laundry, etc. And the most breathtaking views! We were even treated to the “strawberry moon” over the BrasDor lakes.

Comfy cabin with a million dollar view!

Kevin is incredibly responsive. The cabin is extremely comfy, had everything we needed. You could plan your stay at this location and completely escape and enjoy the view, just bring plenty of mosquito repellant!

Great Getaway

If you want to explore Cape Breton the property this is a good place to stay. Central to many spots and activities. The only negative is that if you want to stay home and enjoy the beautiful scenery and swim in the lake, the mosquitos this time of year (mid August) are deadly. Could not get to the water without being swarmed and quickly driven back.

Bras d'Or Lake

Beautiful cottage and property on the lake, everything you would need other than food. We enjoyed being able to take walks without going to the main road. Not far from the Cabot Trail, restaurants nearby. Kevin was very responsive when I had a couple of questions. Would stay there again.

You’ll never want to leave

The cottage is well-equipped, comfortable and private. The area is quiet with easy access to a private beach. Our dogs enjoyed the large, gated porch where they could freely play & wrestle & cool off with the breezes off the lake. Just 2 warnings: bring heavy duty bug spray & be prepared to never want to leave.

Got kids or dogs or both? This is your spot!

Highly recommend this property! There is wide open space that gives privacy and is a dream for kids and dogs. The cottage is very comfy and clean. The trek down to the beach is a fun adventure. The host is very communicative and helpful. We used this as a base to explore Cape Breton. Lots to do close by too...Highland museum is worth the visit. We would come back for sure!

The Location of this Property is absolutely ideal if your intent is to explore all regions of Cape Breton, which we did. The Pup and Country Church Kitchen is close by and came in handy for those eat out evenings. The Views from this property are as advertised and absolutely stunning with Sunset and Sunrises daily. Very Private location. Kevin and the Property Caretaker were attentive to a few very minor issues. Beds were comfy and the cottage had everything we needed. Mosquitoes at dusk we a bit much and thinking a screened in patio would be a bonus. Overall excellent property for our needs.

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this cottage! The location was breathtaking—nestled in nature with stunning views of the ocean and mountains. The cottage itself was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was well-equipped, the beds were super cozy, and the outdoor space was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings.Our host was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making sure we had all the information we needed and checking in to ensure everything was perfect. We especially loved the little thoughtful touches that made the place feel so welcoming.If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing escape with easy access to Cape Breton’s beautiful trails, beaches, and scenic drives, this is the perfect spot! We can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

September 2022 Stay

My husband and I, and our two dogs stayed mid September. Although location is somewhat remote, the scenery is breathtaking and with a fabulous lawn/yard for walking the dogs. Kevin was the ideal host providing very thorough instructions, directions, and such to assist with our stay.; very accommodating. If you’re looking for peace and quiet with the most spectacular views, you won’t be disappointed!!!
