A modern, cosy, ocean-front, beach (rock) acces Cottage
The Sleeping Moose Cottage is located on the North Shore of Cape Breton Island, 8 km south of Cape Smokey, between the Cape Breton Highlands National Park (25 km) and the town of Baddeck (65 km) on the Bras d'Or Lakes.
The North Shore, originally settled by Scots in the early 1800s, is now home to lots of moose, a crab and lobster fishery (May - July), as well as many fine artisans and crafters.
From the deck of the Sleeping Moose Cottage you might see whales and seals, for sure ocean birds, and 'our' Bald Eagle who does a 'fly-by' a couple of times a day. Walk to our pebble beach and enjoy the beautiful view and sometimes-loud silence of the waves hitting the pebbles.
There are lots of hiking and snowshoeing trails in and outside the National Park, and if you like golf... Highland Links is a beautiful 25-minute drive away.
The Sleeping Moose is a housekeeping cottage with a full kitchen, but it is conveniently located on the same property as the Dancing Moose Cafe. It serves unusual breakfasts and lunches bilt around Dutch Pannekoeken (stuffed pancakes), Belgian waffles, a daily soup, and baked treats, all made from scratch in our own kitchen.
We are an all-season accommodation. Start your day watching the sun rise over the ocean. Then, spend a lazy summer's eve on your private deck watching the stars come out. Light a cosy fire in your wood stove on chilly evenings, or in winter when snow has changed the landscape. On rainy days, enjoy a free movie or a bit of surfing with our free wireless Internet.

Our two week stay at the Dancing Moose cottage was outstanding in every way, our hosts, Ton and his wife, were very accommodating, the cottage was super clean, beds and pillows so comfortable, kitchen well outfitted, bathroom newly renovated. The AC worked perfectly, the wood stove was nice for cooler evenings, the view out the xtra large patio door was awesome, we watched the lobster boats at work. Ton’s breakfasts were a delightful experience. We cannot wait to book another stay at The Dancing Moose!

The cabin we stayed at was private with beautiful views of the ocean. We enjoyed watching the seals in the morning and evening at our own overlook with coffee or wine. The host, Ton, was friendly, welcoming and makes a great pannenkoeken for breakfast if you choose to eat at his restaurant. Overall a great start to our vacation and a good base for exploring Cape Breton.

A great stay at this cozy cottage
We loved warming up by the wood fire after our days skiing at Cape Smokey. The view of the ocean was lovely. It was nice to have the kitchen for cooking our own evening meals. Wifi worked well.

Sunrises and Hiking
We really enjoyed our stay at the Sleeping Moose cabin. Ton was an excellent host and having his restaurant on site was a fantastic addition to our trip. The Pannekoek is delicious!! The cabin had all the basics we needed and the view and the sound of the waves was incredibly relaxing. It’s a great jumping off place for exploring Highland National Park and a great place to relax after a long day on the trails. Thanks Ton!

Rugged & Remote Cape Breton
The week we stayed at the Sleeping Moose was extremely hot however Ton provided 2 fans which made it somewhat more livable. If you’re planning a visit, don’t forget insect repellent! The Cabot Trail is truly beautiful & Ton’s restaurant, The Dancing Moose was great.

Ideal CB Getaway
Thoroughly enjoyed our 5 night break at the Sleeping Moose. Cabin was ideal for our needs, adequately equipped, very comfortable beds and lovely location with super view out to the ocean - picnic table ideally placed for this also. The Dancing Moose cafe serves great food as well. All in all certainly recommend a stay here.

HIghly recommended!
Very comfortable and clean cabin with cozy atmosphere. Kitchen facilities were great, bed was super comfortable, living room area very nice. Lovely to be close to Atlantic ocean and beautiful sunrises. Tasty breakfasts and lunches at the nearby Dancing Moose Cafe. A little bit of a haul over Smoky Mt. to reach Inverness & Cape Breton Highlands National Park, but it's a stunning ride overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

Great place to stay!
This is a very nice place to stay with everything you could need. We loved the short walk to the ocean every morning to watch the sunrise. We even saw seals almost everyday. Tom was a wonderful host and a great cook. He even helped us out with our flat tire. There were 4 adults staying in this house and it never felt crowded. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone that is interested in exploring Cape Brenton National Park. Thank you Tom for everything!

Wunderschöne Hütte mit prima Ausstattung
Wir haben unsere Zeit am Cabot Trail im schlafenden Elch sehr genossen. Vermieter Ton ist super hilfsbereit und backt sehr leckere Pannekoeken. UNbedingt dem Café einen Besuch abstatten. Bei Vollmond hatten wir an dem Picknickplatz, der zur Hütte gehört, einen wunderschönen Blick aufs Meer.

Rustic Modern Combination
We stayed here for 2 nights on a fall trip to Cape Breton. The cottage was a fantastic blend of rustic and modern, well layed out and well stocked. We loved the ocean sunrise view both from the oversized sliding glass doors and from the picnic table at the ocean. An added touch was our chicken neighbours. Ton makes a great breakfast and is a friendly host. We highly recommend!
