    We had a very nice stay and enjoyed the privacy and view of the ocean! The umbrella outside table was not there, but the home was very well equipped with everything needed. The owners were very responsive, offered valuable traveling advice, and were very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

    We loved our stay! This cottage was the perfect spot for our family to stay for a few days. An easy drive to Antigonish and to other points of interest along the coast. It is clean, cozy, has great amenities (full kitchen and laundry!) and has absolutely stunning views. It is steps away from a beautiful lighthouse and more gorgeous views. The hosts were easy to communicate with and provided great tips. Check in and out was incredibly easy. We highly recommend this rental!!

    Our stay in Cape George was a culmination of one of the best trips I've ever had to the Maritimes. The cabin was meticulous and very comfortable. It had all the amenities anyone would need.The drive was amazingly scenic and just a short distance from Antigonish where we attended our granddaughter's graduation.The view from the cabin was breathtaking as we watched the lobster boats go our for their catch before sunrise, which was another memory we will have for a long time. However, the key to the cabin was not in the lock box as suggested, and it took a few minutes to find it under the mat but a small slip for a wonderful stay at a beautiful place. Thank you Rhona and Nigel.

    My family loved this house, both as a point to launch from for our trips to Cape Breton, Halifax, and St. Francis Xavier University, and as a place of rest after long days of hiking, fishing, bird watching, and exploring. The views are spectacular and ever-changing. We began and ended our days at the lighthouse; coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. The house itself was clean, well appointed, and provided both an accommodating gathering space and private spaces. We also used the outside fire pit and gazed at the stars. Thank you for sharing your house!

    Our stay was wonderful at this cozy cottage situated with a view of the ocean in the distance and a stone's throw to Cape George's lighthouse. The property was very clean and everything inside was new. We loved it and will recommend to friends and family. Many thanks Nigel and Rhonda.

    My wife and I spent a very pleasant week. with the Lighthouse Cottage our base for daily visits to nearby scenic sites. From the spacious living room we were always aware of the Atlantic Ocean. The drive to Antigonish provided many opportunities for spectacular photography. Your lovely furnished Cottage became our sanctuary after a busy day sight-seeing. Thanks for shareing your property.

    Just came back from Antigonish, NS. We had a fabulous vacation. My husband and I stayed at this home with my sister and brother-in-law. Two bedrooms. Two bathrooms. We never got in each other's way. All basics provided. As stated in description, 2 minute walk from lighthouse. You do need to arrive at this home with all the staples you require including gas in your car. The home is 30-40 minutes from town. No gas station or convenience store between house and town. I recommend this home to anyone looking for a nice quiet vacation and anyone who likes to take rides and enjoy scenery. Loved Nova Scotia!

    We had a relaxing and enjoyable stay at the cottage. Not being familiar with the area, it was more remote than expected. We were glad to have taken some groceries with us for our first day. The view from the deck is amazing and peaceful. We bundled up and sat there as much as possible though it was extremely windy and chilly. We enjoyed the Cape Breton area and the town of Antigonish, which was a good30-40 minute drive. Would love kayak info mentioned in review above as that was something we searched for. Would love to return one day.

    The cottage was the perfect setting to enjoy the few days with my daughter before her move in day to St. FX. The 30 minute drive to the University is beautiful! The cottage itself is peaceful, clean and beautifully decorated. The view was unbeatable! So very happy we stayed :)
