We stayed at Andrea's cottage in Aug. 2026. Everything was clean and exactly as described, and the cottage was full of all the stuff you'd need for a great week. There's a lower dock on the water with amazing sunsets and views of the Milky Way, as well as a deck overlooking the bay. The beds are very comfortable, and there are laundry facilities and linens provided. The kitchen is well stocked. There's a good herb garden.One caveat: the tap water is not for drinking, but the water jug system worked just fine.Excellent sound from the old-school stereo receiver. There are lots of fun things too: kayaks, bikes, a nice charcoal grill, and plenty of firewood. There is no TV, but none is needed here. Great places to hike, swim, read, and bike. The small store at Hope Bay Beach is a nice 2 km walk or bike ride away, and they have great ice cream and other things.The local vibe in Hope Bay is very relaxing, and although there are other cottages close by, everyone was friendly and quiet. Andrea, as a host, was very clear, and communication was quick and easy.
