Beautiful cabin near the National Park

Absolutely beautiful cabin and grounds. Everything seemed new. Owners were a delight to work with. BBQ was a nice touch and owners brought us the utensils when we asked.

Our cabin was clean and comfortable. With a minimum of kitchen supplies we were able to prepare some meals. There were very few restaurants or grocery stores nearby. Host was friendly and checked in daily. If planning to cook, buy your food at a real grocery store before getting on the Cabot Trail as the local stores have very limited options. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach (very rocky shoreline) and the walking trails on property.
