Boathouse is literally sitting on the ocean. With high ceilings, wood floors and beautiful views makes it one of Cheticamp's best rentals. Walking distance to Whale Cruises, restaurants, bars, and cofee shop, property is perfect. Only 10 minutes to the National Park. You will fall in love with the view, the ocean, the sal air and the sound of boats going by with their catch of lobster. Make this space your central location to visit the island. This is ground level, upstairs another rental.
There are two bedrooms in this rental and one king size bed in the open concept living room. There is another unit on the second floor.
Parking is street side. It is very well lit and we have never had any issues, it is a very safe area:)
The downtown area is quite nice and you are situated right on the boardwalk. Please take the time to take a stroll by the water and drop in at Marquerite boutique et Provisions for a fresh coffee and locally baked goods.

The place looked just like the pictures, was very easy to find, so comfortable and had an amazing view. The host kept us very adequately informed about everything. Would definitely recommend this place!
Beautiful location and accommodations over and above!
My three sisters and I stayed 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the property and the town. Very well stocked with linens and kitchen ware. I would stay here again and most definitely recommend it to other travelers!
A wonderful spot. It is quiet, a well equipped kitchen and comfy beds. The sunsets are stunning! Location is close to the park. My family visiting from England thoroughly enjoyed it.
Amazing location and fantastic layout. Terrific ocean views and very central to numerous restaurants and bars. Joeleen was always quick to respond to questions and requests. She had really great suggestions for things to do and see in the area. The Boat House was very clean and extremely comfortable. Would recommend staying here if you are in the area.
The house was very quaint with a lovely view. Parking was our only issue. Had to drive around a bit before a spot opened.

Great location, spacious and well furnished. Thoughtful touches including some food items, shampoo, laundry facilities and supplies. Would definitely stay again!
This house by the sea was absolutely delightful! Everything you need including great coffee and super comfortable mattresses is in the house. The hosts are wonderful people and they were always super friendly and helpful. The amount of sea birds that you can watch while chilling on the deck is incredible both in number and in diversity of species. Going to sleep with the sound of waves made for an extraordinary snoozing experience. Cabin is convenient to walk to restaurants and bars and enjoy Cheticamp. I would recommend it to anyone.
Location, view and cleanliness was great. Fully stocked kitchen with dishes, pots,glasses and utensils. The dishwasher, washer/dryer were appreciated. The hosts were quick to respond to any requests we had. We will definitely be back again.

Such a lovely place to stay! Right on the ocean, wonderful view of Cheticamp Island. It was fun to sit on the deck and watch the cattle, herons and eagles on the island. The hosts were very helpful, sending messages with all information needed including things to do and where to shop and eat in the area. Very restful!
It was just great! Loved having the washer dryer, and lots of other small touches that made it extra nice. TV lost its feed and I received a message within 15 min how to try to fix it and it worked. Also liked the suggestions on what to do and where to go. Of course being on the water was perfect.
Everything was there, nothing missing. Amazing patio!

We had a wonderful stay at the boathouse. The best part was the deck. It was huge and overlooked Cheticamp Harbour. It was beautiful, quiet and the perfect spot for coffee in the morning. There were plenty of restaurants around, whale watchng was walking distance and the national park right down to road. We had a wonderful stay.
