We enjoyed our stay very much! The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed many sunsets from the front porch. The location is excellent, there are several nice restaurants in the area, Cheticamp beach is only a few minutes away, and it’s the perfect home base for exploring the Cabot Trail.

Great location

We stayed for four nights. The location was great for visiting Chéticamp and the surrounding area. It would be helpful if the host checked the utensils and equipment to ensure that guests have everything they need. The chairs on the deck should be replaced as they are sun scorched and they are falling apart. With all this said we would stay there again.

My wife and I stayed 2 nights while in Cheticamp and this is a fabulous property. Everything in the unit is very nice and in perfect working order. Very comfortable beds, couches, big kitchen table, fully stocked kitchen, large screen TV, wifi, AC, and a beautiful view from the big patio. The host was very helpful and she had a full binder of helpful and fun information (including how to tell if the weather is going to be nice from where the cows are on the beach or not - weird and hilarious and completely accurate!). If you’re in Cheticamp, it’s the place to stay .

The property was advertised as a facility that contains four bedrooms and two washrooms. However, there were only two bedrooms and a single washroom only. Therefore, staying there for two families were extremely inconvenient and embarrassing.

100% Perfect accommodation

This two BR property was exactly as advertised or better - spotless, exceptionally well equipped, and perfect location. The single request we had was to include a rubber mat for the bathtub. It had two handicap bars, but my 93 yr old mom was a bit nervous that tub bottom was slippery for her to have a shower. Otherwise - BRAVO! would rent again in a heartbeat.

Why they chose this property

This property is very important to me because it is in the area where I was born & raised.

I bought this property in 2017 from Emilie Burns, who lived next door to us when we were brought up. She sold her house to me because she was moving to a Nursing Home. Her house is now also being rented out as a vacation home under the name "Waterfront Cheticamp Vacation Home".

I decided to build a 2nd house in 2020-2021 on Emilie's property because I was looking for a project for retirement. This 2nd house is behind Emilie Burns' house. It is rented out as a vacation home under the name "Sunset & Water View Cheticamp Vacation Home - Units 1 & 2".

What makes this property unique

Amazing Sunsets (visible inside & outside)
View of Water (from one end of the Cheticamp Island to the other) (visible inside & outside)
Large outside deck accessible through patio door
Pet friendly
On main road, withing walking distance of boardwalk, restaurants, stores, hospital...
Close to the Cape Breton Highlands National Park
Situated on the world-famous Cabot Trail
Close to two world-renowned golf courses in Inverness (Cabot Links & Cabot Cliffs)
