Perfect Getaway
My wife and i found this to be a perfect little cabin in the North woods. It is in a quiet little camp. Great place to relax, when exploring, the Cabot Trail.

Great Cape Breton Hide-away
We had a great time at the cottages - friendly, helpful hosts, great location - 20 minutes to Cape Smokey. The cottages are comfy and well appointed. Neat location in the woods, especially in the winter.

Clean, comfortable, private, cabin, easy access Cabot Trail
Trailside cabins are set back from road, in a private setting. Interiors are spotlessly clean, efficient with everything you need, nicely decorated. Private access path to rocky ocean front. Very accomodating owners.
