About this property

Trailside Cottage #4

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. Our studio style cottages are quiet, well appointed and comfortable. Step out your door and onto our onsite trails with views of the Cape Breton Highlands and Atlantic Ocean. We are a short drive along the Cabot Trail to Cape Smokey, Ingonish and Cape Breton Highlands National Park. Make our cottages your home away from home in beautiful Cape Breton. Our campus is located right on the Cabot Trail. We are less than a five minute walk through a private trail to the ocean and private lake. Our gardens are lush, grounds kept bright and clean and we're excited to have you stay with us. Free parking is available right at the doorstep of your cottage. You'll arrive and check in is a breeze. We are located 5km from a coffee shop and restaurant, 4km from a general store. There are artisan shops nearby and we are located 14km from the new Destination Cape Smokey. As you enter our cottage area, parking is located right in front of your cottage. We do have space for extra cars, so please just ask if you're travelling in more than one vehicle.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Peaceful Getaway

Great location! Super staff and owners. Wonderful mountain trail and short walk to a “postcard” rocky beach. Simple accommodations but has everything you need in a quiet wooded setting!

Perfect Getaway

My wife and i found this to be a perfect little cabin in the North woods. It is in a quiet little camp. Great place to relax, when exploring, the Cabot Trail.

Great Cape Breton Hide-away

We had a great time at the cottages - friendly, helpful hosts, great location - 20 minutes to Cape Smokey. The cottages are comfy and well appointed. Neat location in the woods, especially in the winter.

Clean, comfortable, private, cabin, easy access Cabot Trail

Trailside cabins are set back from road, in a private setting. Interiors are spotlessly clean, efficient with everything you need, nicely decorated. Private access path to rocky ocean front. Very accomodating owners.

Good location. Very clean, comfortable and cozy cottage. The Internet on Cottage No. 4 was weak. All other services were great!
