Was the perfect place to stay to see all of cape Breton. It's central, close to amenities, the place is just spacious enough to allow you a place to relax and be in a quiet place. It was perfect for our friend trip.

This is a perfect property for a stay on the Cabot Trail. Nanook’s is a delightful cottage in a perfect setting. The owner, Lynn, was very quick to respond to any communication. The property was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. Sadly we were only there for one night, but we hope to return very soon for a longer stay.

Excellent owner and property, the home was a stones throw from Cape Brenton park entrance with the property offering an excellent home base for the park. The home is new and fully equipped with all the necessities one could hope for. It was like being at home but in a newer home!! Well worth the price, and I can say without hesitation the property was one of the nicest I have experienced.

Our stay in Nanook's Den was perfect in every way. The accommodations were spotless and all the thoughtful details were appreciated. The furnishings and beds were very comfortable. The setting was extremely peaceful and the vista was beautiful. The location was private while being in close proximity to some great food locations (especially the bakery). The nearby town of Cheticamp was handy for all we might require. This location provides easy access to The Highlands National Park and Gypsum Mine Lake Trail. We would gladly return.

Nanook’s den is a beautiful , charming and spotless home !!! What a fantastic time we had . The yard overlooks the mountains and there is a gas grill . Love the way it was decorated !Everyhing was perfect and it had a brand new washer / dryer that really came in handy . We wish we could have stayed longer ! It couldn’t be better situated to explore the western entrance of the Cape Breton Highlands National park . Literally so close ! Great sandwich shop at end of the road called Last Chance Sandwich . You couldn’t ask for a better stay and the hosts were awesome. Do not hesitate to book . We traveled with two adult couples .

Even though our stay was short, we absolutely loved this small but incredibly functional house. It was spotless, beautifully organized, and offered the perfect peaceful retreat away from town.Be sure to take the time to read the welcome book and learn about the story of Lynn’s daughter—it is both touching and inspiring. We also loved the opportunity to purchase the beautiful handmade tuques, mittens, and moccasins displayed in the house. They are truly works of art and make wonderful keepsakes.Lynn and Christian made sure we had everything we needed and were exceptional hosts. We highly recommend staying here. We only wish we could have stayed longer, but the Cabot Trail was calling us!
