Excellent stay! Everything we had hoped for! Easy to chill but strategically located for all the activities we wanted to do. The accommodations were clean and incredibly cozy! The view of the ocean is amazing!
Don’t hesitate… book your stay! “Location, location, location!”
We spent 16 days exploring Nova Scotia and our stay at Cliff Waters Cottage was the highlight of our trip. The photos don’t do the property and location justice. Serene and remote, but also a short drive to the most popular hiking trails in Cape Breton. We loved it!

We sent this message to the owner when we arrived: “Your place is WAY beyond our expectations. Stunning location, tasteful furnishings, warm wood all around the house had everything we needed. Niki was super responsive and gave us ideas for things to do including a beautiful walk down to the beach less than 100 meters from the cottage.
If you're looking for spectacular views from the Cape Breton coast, this is a great choice. All of the property photos are very accurate: a snug, well-designed home that's perfect for two people (or a couple more in the loft). All of the furnishings, kitchen utensils, etc. are uncluttered but well chosen. You should know that the nearest town of size is about 40 min. away...what you have here are the sounds of wind, waves, and birds. The host was very informative as to nearby hikes and attractions, and went out of her way to give us a heads-up as to a brief, planned power outage due to utility work. My only suggestion would be to forward the helpful guide material a little earlier, maybe even upon booking. Of all our stops in the Maritimes, this has been the most memorable...thank you!
We loved every moment of our stay. A very special place to truly enjoy the beauty of the area. Niki is great to work with for your stay. She was quick to respond to my worries over Hurricane Lee and checked in just enough. Everything is exactly as described in her listing and very clean. We will return.
Property as described in listing. Beautiful view! Had absolutely everything we needed. Close to hiking trails. Host gave us excellent tips for local attractions and precise directions. Recommend this place!

Beautifully sited
Adorable cozy cabin with a panoramic view of the gulf. Incredible ambiance, especially for sunsets.
This property was incredible! It checked off all of our boxes, and even the boxes we didn't anticipate. I would definitely recommend this property to others, and I would stay there again next time I'm in the area.

Awesome house with a stunning location
This house is awesome and very comfortable. The location and view are stunning. Wildlife abounds, just sit and watch from your deck. Niki and Jer are super people and are the best hosts you could want. Very private, yet close to most necessities. If you love nature and the ocean, this house has it all. Cool beach to roam around on just a short walk away.
