What a great place to stay while in the Port Hood area! My Wife and I couldn’t believe how amazing the views were. Walk to the edge of this beautiful property and you’re rewarded with amazing Ocean views. The cottage is amazing as well. Tons of room, clean and well appointed. You won’t be disappointed if you book with Shannon. Great communicator and very helpful.

The place was as advertised, awesome location to have a home base to explore the Cabot Trail. Charming and active community with beaches, biking, walking trails, restaurants, bakery and beautiful sunsets. We absolutely loved the place and the area. Host was an excellent communicator. The place felt like home and very welcoming. If you’re looking for fancy and upscale not your community, if you’re looking for a welcoming environment like old fashioned hospitality you found your place. Thanks for sharing your home. DDV

The online pictures accurately portrayed the home. Two bathrooms, bedrooms, washer, dryer, dishwasher, large fridge, toasteroven; everything you need as a functional home away from home. Very cozy and comfortable. Well decorated, stunning views of the sunset over the river.

Beautiful Property

Easy check in & property exceeded our expectations. The walk to the beach at the end of the yard was unexpected & lovely. Port Hood is amazing too with lovely (warm) beaches. Highly recommend!

Great stay in Port Hood

Wonderful stay in a cottage. We were too couples and each had our bedrooms and bathroom. Amenities as described (loved having washer/dryer). Firepit was a great addition outside. We were able to go see Lobster boats coming in harbour and also drove around to see the sights.Highly recommended!

What a view

Location was great. Space was wonderful, but it would have been nice to have access to the smaller bedroom closet. Part of the reason for booking a house is so you don't have to live out of a suitcase.

Response from VrboOwner on 30 Jun 2025
Hi Jim, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We really appreciate that you enjoyed the view and everything else about the property. Oh shoot—just to mention, there was an empty closet right beside the bedroom for hanging clothes, as well as an empty four-drawer dresser in the bedroom to unpack the rest. Thanks again for staying with us!

Great spot with wonderful views of the ocean and sunsets. Close to the beginning of the Cabot Trail and beautiful beaches in Port Hood. Host was responsive and lovely to deal with. Comfortable beds and tastefully decorated throughout. We will be back next year !
