Neil’s Harbour Cottage on 1.5 Acres of Private Oceanfront Property - Spectacular Views!
Enjoy amazing views, roaring waves, wildlife sightings, and shooting stars while you stay at this lovely, meticulously maintained cottage on over an acre of private oceanfront property. From the cottage, walk the short path lined by windswept grasses and wild flowers to the stunning water’s edge. Marvel at panoramic views of the rocky Atlantic shoreline from the upper deck.
From the master bedroom deck, listen to the waves, spot whales, eagles, gannets, and seals. The beautiful master bedroom includes a half-bath and is located on the second floor. On the first floor, enjoy the spacious and bright eat-in kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped with a large table and new appliances. The lower deck is equipped with a gas grill and overlooks a beautiful lawn and the natural landscape of the shoreline.
Relax in the living room in front of the large screen TV while viewing the ocean through the sliding glass doors. The spacious living room features a full Simmon’s pull out sofa bed. The front bedroom includes a comfortable day bed with detachable twin trundle bed that reaches full bed height and can be rolled away from the day bed. Full bath and laundry room are also located on the first floor.
In the distance, view the light house and quaint working fishing village of Neil’s Harbour. You will appreciate the convenience of the short walk to the grocery store. The restaurant, hospital, and post office are all located within two miles. The Cottage by the Mighty Blue is on the east coast of Cape Breton Island and only minutes off of the Cabot trail’s beautiful hiking and vistas.

I am the owner of the property you are interested in. I can't figure out why there aren't more comments posted on this site. We have a guest book on the property and it is filled cover to cover with glowing comments. Maybe that's all the guests think they should do or maybe they have had trouble getting on the site. I have had some problems with this myself. I hope you will stay with us. I'm sure you will have a great time. And while you are there take a look at the guest book.
