Nice quiet spot
The house was perfect for us. Way out in the middle of nowhere, quiet and secluded. The house was clean and and lots of room for the kids to run around.
There is a wonderful trail that leads out to a cliff Lookout.
The house is owned by a nearby (12 km away) wilderness resort. The hot tub and wifi mentioned in the ad are located there, not at this house.
Watch out with leaving food around outside, we did spot a coyote near the house while we were outside having a bonfire.
Overall we had a good time and it was located in a perfect spot along the Cabot trail.

Great base of operations
The farmhouse is conveniently located on the southern end of the western Cabot Trail and is a good base of operations from which a larger group can explore the east side of the park and surrounding areas. The farmhouse has plenty of room and all the basic needs for housekeeping as well as access to the facilities at Cabot Shores, a few km south on the Trail. The site is very private and has plenty of parking but note that two of the amenities (WiFi and hot tub) are only located at the resort, not at the farmhouse directly. We enjoyed our stay and meeting Paul at the resort.

Excellent rustic get away
Hidden from the road a rustic paradise awaits you in this old farm house. Not to miss the walk in the woods to see the cliffs.
