Macaulay’s Hill Farm
This was a perfect week long retreat for our summer vacation. We spent most of our time enjoying the kitchen, screened in porch, and the pool! Just a short trip to town, it’s easy to get groceries and the kitchen in well equipped for cooking! We were in the pool everyday and felt so relaxed and at ease in the beautiful home and peaceful scenery! Peter, who stopped by mid-week was lovely and helpful. Completely recommend for a week away!

Beautiful 3 bedroom home with a view.
Great spot with an awesome view. Strategic location to visiting multiple locations at Cape Breton. Host was very responsive.

Baddeck 2 bedroom2 bath Condo-Incredible Lakeview
Lovely condo. Had everything. Conveniently located. Beautiful view. Several outdoor seating areas which we loved. We would highly recommend this to anyone!

Scottish Thistle
This is a great place to relax! Extremely quiet, spectacular view and plenty of space for a family of 4 to 6 to spread out and chill. The private beach is a nice added touch and Baddeck is only a 2 minute drive, but I wouldn’t walk there, cars drive a little fast down that road and there’s no sidewalk. Tyler was a great host, explained everything perfectly, right down to recommending water shoes for the private beach ( which we had). There’s also a nice listing of local places and lots of brochures so you can find stuff to do. It was ~25 degrees when we stayed and it gets nice and cool at night so not having A/C isn’t a problem. There are so many windows that open in so many directions, you’ll catch a breeze.

Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for an unforgettable stay!

CABOT TRAIL BASE CAMP - path to more adventures
We had a fantastic stay at Donny’s place! It is extremely comfortable and spacious. Wonderful amounts of light all day. It is so stocked with everything you could need. There is a very lovely walk down to the coast. Donny is a really great host and human being! He is extremely communicative and helpful! It was a delight staying at his place.

Cabin Life
This place is a gem for anyone looking to relax, let go, and keep it simple. Which we were. We also appreciated the food and drinks Kent provided. We hope to return.

Welcome to Sailor's Rest!
Couldn't have asked for a better place to explore the Cape breton island. Sailor's rest was cozy and had all the amenities for our stay. Lorna, our host was always responsive and kind. There were a ton of local recommendations placed inside the property which actually helped us a lot.

'The Big House'
This is the 3rd time we have stayed at the Big House. It is a great spot when you have a large group! The location is fantastic, within walking distance to everything and Willie is very accommodating and responsive.

Big Harbour Hideaway
Big Harbour Hideaway is situated on an inlet of the Bras D’Or Lake with little boating activity so it was quiet. The dock is very solid and does not move with the tide, there were four Adirondack chairs on the dock with a few more available near by. Across the inlet is a really nice view of gypsum cliffs. There were bald eagles and even a seal! The house felt comfy and was well stocked with toilet paper, paper towelling, tissue, garbage bags, pots and pans, cutlery, etc. The beds were quite comfortable and although there is no air conditioning the breeze off the water was all we needed to cool the bedrooms at night. Although the house is on a well there was plenty hot water and the water pressure was really good. It felt homelike and it doesn’t get better than that! There is no cable tv, but I believe you can hook up a device to it to watch movies or play games. There is a pretty serious Scrabble game on the coffee table. Baddeck is only 12-14 minutes away by car.

Beautiful home in the heart of Sydney
An excellent space for a large group. Local recommendations provided right by the door. The space was clean and had cookware and dinnerware to accommodate our full group. The hosts were friendly and responsive during our stay. Would definitely recommend this space for families or groups looking to stay in Sydney!

Waterfront Nautical Home by the Beach
We had a wonderful stay at Rahim's place! He is incredibly kind and thoughtful, going above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome. My son especially enjoyed playing with the collection of shells in the house, and Rahim was so generous in offering him a few to take home as a keepsake. The location is also fantastic—just one minute from the highway, making it super convenient to explore the area. Highly recommend staying here!

Hannah’s Haven
Looking forward to coming back. Thanks again for another great stay.

Cozy Corner Family Home
Adorable house in seaside village. Nicely furnished, neat and tidy. Good linens and lots of towels, fully equipped kitchen and nice big bathtub. Two private bedrooms upstairs. The location was perfect for me and restaurants shopping and grocery stores are 10 minute drive away. Quiet for sleeping and views of ocean. Hosts are welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend and hope to return.

Lake View Haven
Excellent stay. Very hospitable. Very clean and great amenities. Would definitely book here again.
