The staff at this motel was very friendly and accommodating. The room was great, bed very comfortable, access to the pool, parking in front of our door. The location is perfect! We golfed at Cabot Cliffs, visited Baddeck and drove the Cabot Trail :) Thank you for a great 3 night stay :)

Mark, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We used this to tour around Cabot Trail and it was perfect. The accommodation was comfy and the owner was nothing short of sweet. Charlene’s restaurant is just down the road and was good home cooked food. The Farmers Daughter was great to get a sandwich and goodies in the morning.

Despite the whole island losing power for the duration of our stay, the friendliness of the manager and other staff along with the beautiful room was enough to convince us to stay. 10/10

6/10 Okay

Air conditioning unit was set in a window that couldn't be darkened making the room very bright. Seemed expensive considering the amenities, no sites of interest or food options close by.
