MacToimin Cottage Private Hot Tub Cabot Trail, Pleasant Bay,N.S.
8/10 Good
"Very clean cottage with all the amenities you would need. We had a great supper at the rusty anchor, which is only a short drive away. Neighbours and dog barking across the street were loud at times when outside using the hot tub, but relaxing in the hot tub was still amazing. Overall, it was a very nice place to stay the night while we explored the Cabot trail. "
"A rustic hotel that is in a perfect location for visiting the area. We booked here because of the location. The check it was good and the people were friendly. They got us in quick, and gave us the information we needed about the area. For us the room and bathroom were clean. The beds were comfortable, nothing sticking out or hard. The showers worked with no issues and gave us plenty of hot water. The restaurant was nice, the staff were very pleasant and the food was good. The only complaint I would have is there is no fridge or microwave in the room. We would definitely stay here again."
"Beautiful location and view of the ocean!! Had
Everything you could need and a restaurant in walking distance. Loved it and would definitely be back!! "
"Stayed 4 night in Sep/Oct 2025. Lovely setting on a river. Unfortunately there was a fire ban so could not use the fire pit. The cottage is small but great for 2 people and a medium sized dog. Good size yard for the dog to wander (not fenced) and several walking trails right there. Note that you can't drink the tap drink but the host provided bottled water. Because water is trucked in, showers and laundry are limited. It did not affect our stay. Note that internet in the area, as well as a good portion of Cape Breton, is down to one bar. If you plan on working remotely during your stay on the island, confirm the level of coverage where you will be staying. The excellent Aucoin Bakery is a couple of minutes away from the cottage. We were there every day. Several very good restaurants in Cheticamp."
