About this property

Cottage in the beach capital of Cape Breton

This fully furnished, private oceanside cottage is a bright, relaxing getaway with one Queen room and one Double room. The couch is suitable for sleeping but only sleeps one guest.
Your view in May and June includes lobster boats and bluefin tuna boats starting in August. Eagles and other wildlife can be seen year-round.
Only 2 minutes from: beaches, live celtic music, restaurants, grocery store, seafood market, hiking trails, boat tours, swimming pool, gym and marina.

This cottage does not allow smoking or pets.

Port Hood is in close proximity to the world famous Cabot Links golf course, Glenora Distillery, square dances, farmers' market, and the Celtic Shores Costal Trail (for walking, biking, 4-wheeling and snowmobiling).

For hot days, there are fans in each room. Heating is also available in this fully winterized cottage.

I am fully available by phone, text or email during your stay.

Please note: the Satellite TV channels will not be available from Oct. 16, 2023 - Feb. 21, 2024 but there is internet and the TV has Chromecast and Netflix.

Port Hood Cottage

Great location and perfect size for our short vacation. Amenities exactly as descibed and very clean when we checked in. My grandchildren enjoyed running up and down the hills when they came for a "picnic" and the views were stunning. Would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed the gorgeous setting of the property and the amenities were as described in the listing. It was a great stopover on our Cabot Trail weekend and we had a delightful dinner at the nearby distillery. Would recommend!

Ocean view

We really enjoyed the view of the sloping fields and ocean. It was peaceful. We enjoyed relaxing on the large deck. The owner was welcoming and friendly. The cottage had everything we needed to cook our own meals.

Beautiful sunrises an sunsets

Area was nice. Sunrises and the sunsets were very nice. Fairly quiet. Close to Sunset Beach as Murphy Pond was not acceptable. It appears there was an Alexa camera on. We turned off the second day we noticed it. No instructions to use TV because of Alexa system. Otherwise we enjoyed our vacation.

The perfect getaway to relax and unwind with family. The cottage was beautifully decorated, well equipped and super clean. The view of the ocean and sunsets were amazing. Outside there was a big yard for our son to run and play. We can’t wait to go back!

An unbelievable surprise

I have stayed in many cottages but nothing that can compare to this. A cottage equipped with anything you could hope for and more with a view that is breathtaking. We only stayed one night but next year plan on staying for at least 3 nights. The whole experience was amazing and for anybody wanting comfort and quiet this is the place to be. I want to thank the owners for a perfect night.

We enjoyed the house, the location and especially the view.

In general we were well satisfied. We were a little confused by the directions which said #43 was the last place before 555 when it actually was at 555. I would suggest there be some more pots and pans as many people would want to do some cooking. In Andrew's absence, we appreciated his father coming over to check on us. The bedrooms were a tight fit and the bed frame in the first bedroom took up space. Also the high bed is difficult for the elderly or short people.

Peaceful

This house was beautiful and had a very peaceful environment! We had only a short time to stay so we didn't use the kitchen very much. The beds were very comfortable. The view from the front room was beautiful. Check in was simple and very quick responses from the host.
