Lovely place to stay. The renovation was done by someone who knew what they were doing and it showed! Clean, fun, perfect size for two, and just what we needed. Truly a gem.

Sally's Brook Eagles Nest

This is definately a unique property located minutes from the Englishtown ferry right on the Cabot Trail. The converted container/tiny house had everything we needed for our stay. Luxury towels and linens, beautiful bathroom, kitchen amenities and nice deck with fire place and bbq ready to use with wood and kindling all supplied. Lisa, the property manager was very friendly and helpful before and during our stay. Eco friendly, off the grid place to stay :)
