We were welcomed to a beautiful clean room by a friendly staff member (Kevin) who accommodated all our requests. The owner Kim was very friendly. She had prepared a smorgasboard of breakfast offerings and she also cooked each of our breakfasts to perfection.

This was such a lovely place to stay. The room was large and had a great view of the area. There were many places to sit and enjoy the view or just read a book. I could have stayed a week. The staff was so nice and accommodating.

This inn was the best lodging during our 7 day trip to Cape Breton and Nova Scotia. After a long day of driving and hiking on the Cabot Trail, we were greeted warmly by the desk clerk who went out of her way to help us find a restaurant. The room, with a beautiful ocean view was clean, spacious, and well appointed. The next morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast buffet that far exceeded our expectations in a roomy dining room with beautiful ocean views. After breakfast we enjoyed coffee on the deck listening to the surf. Lovely start to our day. Highly recommend this gem of an inn!’

Property is beautiful. Great views. But really nothing around it. We had to drive 20 min to get a pizza for dinner. There was a breakfast onsite in the morning thankfully. Rooms are tiny and a lot considering the area and size. TV really old and small (not that we should be watching while on vacation but it was playoff season!!). The a staff were excellent and very friendly.
