Perfect spot along the Cabot Trail

House was great, lots of room and comfy. Had everything we needed to enjoy our time there. Sitting with morning coffee overlooking the Margaree was neat to watch everyone coming out to fly fish. Beautiful location along the Cabot trail with lots of scenic spot and restaurants up the west side. Location was perfect for what we had planned to do on the island.

Great location and view

We had a lovely stay at Cameron House with friends (2 other couples). It was right at the forks, a prime location for the fishers in our group. The view of the river, hills and valley is spectacular! The kitchen was well equipped. A very comfortable and relaxing stay.

Ideal spot in the Margaree

Cameron House is perfectly and idyllically situated in Margaree Forks and for us it was the perfect location for ceilidhs in Mabou, beach days at Inverness and Chimney Corner, and hiking in CB Highlands National Park. Lee is an attentive host and the property has been renovated to a very good standard. I would definitely stay here again.
