Many in-room conveniences, like water kettle and mini fridge, plus free snacks and bubbly water. Also free laundry and hot tubs. Views from the front main house rooms. Bed was a touch too firm, but everything else was great.

Great location to the National park, view of water out our window, comfortable and clean room.
We visited with two different housekeepers who were so friendly and knowledgeable.
The only downside was the breakfast area, which was a grab and go—-yogurt and granola bars ( maybe something else) coffee and tea. There was a toaster but no bread.

A gorgeous and wonderful stay
This accommodation included every little detail that made it extra special. The host anticipates guest needs very well. We especially enjoyed access to the hot tubs, a great amount of towels and robes, the in-room coffee and snacks, the amenities in the main house, quality bath products. Our only feedback would be that a 10 AM check out is a little bit early compared to other properties, as is a 4 PM check in (however, the property manager allowed us an early check-in, so we were very happy with that after long travels.) We hope to stay again in the future, it was so so great!

We stayed one night and found this to be the best of the five places we stayed in during our trip to Nova Scotia. The building is a charming house with 8 suites and an outdoor hot tub. The rooms were very clean and nicely decorated. Extra amenities such as snacks and water in the room were appreciated. We’d definitely stay here again.

Spectacular!!!!
Everything about this place was spectacular. The operators have thought of every single detail. The small inn even has a small gym. Having a washer and dryer was certainly a plus. Absolutely wonderful stay. Highly recommend.
