Fredlig ö hem med vidsträckt utsikt över Cape Breton Highlands National Park

Detta historiska Acadian hem är uppflugen på en kulle på Cheticamp Island, med slåtterängar som leder ner till hamnen och soliga utsikt från alla fönster. Nyrenoverade, huset har ett mycket välutrustat kök, en vedspis, tvättstuga, hög hastighet WiFi, kabel-TV, spel och pussel och många böcker. Den intilliggande garage är fylld med en flotta av cyklar i alla storlekar, kajaker, småbåtar, ett bordtennisbord, en grill, och mycket mer-allt för din njutning. Titta på otroliga stjärnorna medan rosta marshmallows runt firepit- vi har massor av trä. Huset ger en privat tillflyktsort för ett par, eller en lycklig semester för en hel familj. Vi älskar barn, och ansvarig hundar ..... både kan köra gratis till sina hjärtans lust, och alla kommer att njuta av vår läckra ö källvatten från den nya brunnen!
En historisk Acadian hus på utsidan, är det blå huset fint renoverade på insidan för komfort och enkel elegans. Vila i den totala ön tyst i tre sovrum upstairs- två dubbelsängar och en drottning, och en dubbel vikning ut soffa på vardagsrummet på nedervåningen. En badrum på övervåningen och en lavoratory ner. Nya trägolv ljusare soligt vardagsrum vars fönster titta ut på hamnen och bergen. Allt redo för dig att flytta in- allt ingår!

En Acadian hus med en historia! Detta hus var ursprungligen belägen på Cap Rouge i nationalparken! När parken bildades 1940 och Acadians var tvungen att lämna denna husets ägare tog (flöt det!) till Cheticamp Island- och det nästan inte göra det. Men det har varit mycket lyckligt bosatte sig på tunnland och tunnland slåtterängar och skog sedan dess. Den Island Light Road är en grusväg som löper längs hamnen i Cheticamp Island, från fina varma, sandstrand längs gångbro som leder till ön hela vägen till Point Enrage fyr vid den norra änden av ön. Med ingen trafik det en stor väg för promenader och cykling. Spår från baksidan av huset leder till udden uddar på den "baksidan av island'- 150 fot klippor över Mexikanska St Lawrence. Valar, sälar och örnar av flera slag för att titta efter, och många blåbär att plocka på vägen.

feels like home

We had a great time in Cheticamp at the Blue House. Here are the best features: lots of room for the dogs to run in the fields, great location, house has everything you would need, clean, comfortable beds, and a great vibe. A few weaknesses: the house is a bit cluttered and needs some TLC. However, we would come back again.

Beautiful location but needs some TLC

The "brave" Blue House has a lot of history. It has withstood hurricanes and relocation which involved being partially submerged in the harbor during the process. It's in a beautiful location, very private and set back from the road and has views of Cheticamp and the water. In addition, it's a short drive to the Highlands National Park. The main thing we found lacking was the housekeeping. My family and I agreed that the house could use a thorough spring cleaning. We're not all that fussy, but we noticed it needed some work. The house is also in need of some general maintenance. We never met Gretchen face-to-face, but all of our interactions with her were cordial and pleasant. She also was very generous. She offers her kayaks and bikes for her guests' use. In addition, the kitchen was well stocked.

A gem of a house in an idyllic location

The house is comfortably and creatively furnished, with all the amenities you might expect (and then some). The location is stunning, and is very close to the entrance of the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. The island itself has plenty of interest, with scenic roads to walk or bike on, a lovely beach. We will definitely be back!

Great location with amazing views but not a great vacation overall!

Positive review for the rental and the host but negative review for our vacation overall. We really liked this property and the host was amazing. Prior to arriving, she installed an air conditioning unit which was essential given that Nova Scotia was in the midst of a heat wave! She also checked in with us on several occasions to make sure we didn't need anything. Unfortunately, our car broke down on the way to Cheticamp and had to be towed to Halifax. Then, one of our family members tested positive for COVID early on in the week and passed it on to both my husband and I. Therefore, our vacation started bad and ended bad!

A house with lots of character in a wonderful location

We had great time at the blue house. We explored the island on foot, by bike and kayak. Evenings were spent playing table tennis in the garage or by the fire pit. Conveniently located next to Cheticamp for groceries and the park for walking. We could have happily stayed much longer.

A lovely spot

It was nice to return to the Blue House for the second summer in a row. It truly is a lovely spot. Quiet, with lots of room to roam, wonderful views and access to one of the best beaches in Nova Scotia and the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. The only small problem was the wifi stopped working on the third day we were there. Something reset and the password no longer worked. I did call and email about it, but never heard back. It certainly wasn't an emergency, but it did mean that I used more of my data than usual, costing me a bit. Also, the house could use a real deep clean (cobwebs, smudged cupboard doors, dust bunnies in the corners, but the kitchen and bathroom fixtures were nice and clean.). There are several bikes in the garage, but they all need repairing in order to work! It's a great spot to visit from and also to just hang out in, but needs a bit more attention.

Clean and cozy...with a view!

We were two families staying here with two children aged 3 years old and one aged 7 months old. The toddlers played for hours on end. Their imaginations ran wild! The view is spectacular, especially at night. We had a bonfire almost every night and enjoyed the deck first thing in the morning everyday. Cheticamp Beach is so close and is sandy and wonderful. "Downtown" Cheticamp is only minutes away, as is the National Park (go do some hiking!). The house was comfortable and cozy for us. We would highly recommend this place. Thanks Gretchen!

A beautiful house with an incredible story, overlooking the peaceful harbor. We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the comfortable feel of the home, including a well stocked kitchen and great selection of books. Gretchen was a very welcoming host who shared her knowledge of the area. An excellent location for exploring the town of Cheticamp as well as many stellar nearby hiking trails. Thank you!

Incredible Location!

Million dollar views so a bargain at this price! Minutes from National Park entrance and close to town for supplies but complete solitude on Cheticamp Island. Animal lovers will enjoy the cows grazing in the nearby pastures. Host Gretchen is awesome and a wealth of local knowledge. Helped launch her dinghy but only wished I had more time to row in the harbor right at the end of the driveway. Water in the Gulf is not horribly cold for being so far north and makes for comfortable swimming. Can’t wait to come back soon!

Beautiful, remote location with views of the harbor and Cheticamp. Very private area.

We loved this little blue house on Cheticamp Island. Small, quaint old Acadian home with lots of history. Small kitchen and living area downstairs with 1/2 bath, three bedrooms and full bath upstairs. Loads of windows to open to the island breezes, I think we had all windows open one night and it was glorious! Be warned, the stairs are steep and make a 90 degree turn, take your time going up and down. ( this was normal for us, our old farmhouse has 2 sets of stairs like these😁). We enjoyed eating breakfasts on the deck looking over the harbor, drove the island road out to the lighthouse and saw the wandering herd of random cows, played ping pong in the garage and napped/slept on the hammock. If only the blueberries had been ripe.....we didn’t attempt the kayaks as they were much larger than we are used to and the walk down and then back up the lane with the yaks seemed daunting, plus we haven’t kayaked much on open water so didn’t trust our skills in the harbor tides. Had lots of fun driving into and hiking the national park less than 1/2 hour away and listening to some sweet Celtic music at a pub in town. Be sure to drive down the coast to Inverness beach and eat at the Red Shoe Pub in Mabou, hike the Skyline Trail at least once in your life, and find a whale watch tour. Enjoy the atmosphere and just sit and relax if you can. Gretchen was a great host who took care of everything we needed for our stay and my only regrets are that we couldn’t stay longer and that she had to return to Maine before we met in person! If I ever get the chance to stay in the “ little blue house” again, I certainly will. Thanks Gretchen, for sharing with us!

Highly recommended!

This house on the island is a treasure. It is equipped with everything anyone could want for a week. Whatever you forgot to bring - it's already here, probably in large quantity. There are a dozen bikes in various sizes for exploring the island roads. (And do explore them. The ends of the island are wonderful places to ramble, especially at sunset.) There are so many games, sports equipment, activities in the garage that you'll never exhaust them. The bookshelves are crammed with gorgeous photo books of the area and lots of interesting reading. The view across the water to the town and the Highlands beyond is lovely and constantly changing with the light. Water access at the end of the lane makes it easy to kayak in the shelter of the harbor - but be forewarned that outside of the harbor mouth the wind ceaselessly blows and makes for challenging kayaking. We loved the hiking in the park, had the inevitable moose encounter, saw waterfalls and barrens and carnivorous plants and stunning vistas and the largest fern field I've ever seen. Mountain biking is limited in the park to a few trails, but outside the park, exploration yields many possibilities. There's also a biking rail-trail along the coast southward. Gretchen gave us a history of the house which is amazing and made our stay there that much richer. She lives nearby and is very responsive but never intrusive. She was a wealth of information about the area and any activities we might have in mind. We were largely untroubled by mosquitos or other biting bugs, had comfortable nighttime sleeping weather with a cool breeze blowing through. The stars at night - so many! - away from city lights. The quietness, day or night - exquisite. Snowshoe hares hopped around the lawn, a hawk perched in the evergreens outside the dining room window. The Blue House is a wonderful vacation choice.

Wonderfully Equipped, Sunny Vacation Home🤗

Our party of 4 adults, our 12 year old son & dog had a fabulous week @ The Blue House August 2014. Cheticamp Island is quite unique in having both a small bay for easy watercraft enjoyment, & an expansive sand beach on open ocean for swimming & sunbathing. The cycling and hiking on the Island also rate highly. Gretchen is a fabulous host & so knowledgable about the physical, marine, social & historical dimensions of the area. Cheticamp proper is a traditionalAcadian village with a distinct, vibrant culture. The local bakery-Aucoin's-is fantastic with fair pricing. So much to do! We will definitely return.

Family Vacation to Remember!

My family stayed at this home for a week's vacation to Cape Breton from Virginia, USA. It was just perfect for the 5 of us. Lot's of room, a stocked kitchen, laundry, comfortable sitting areas, and a beautiful outdoor setting. We enjoyed walking in the woods behind the house and our dogs loved the open fields to run in! Since the house is situated on the island it was very quiet and a nice road to run or walk on. The proximity of the house to Cape Breton National Park was perfect. We were able to hike, swim and explore the area, and then return home for dinner or to clean-up before dinner out at the wonderful restaurants in town. We absolutely loved this area of Nova Scotia and could have easily stayed for month, if not the whole summer! Thank you Gretchen for a wonderful stay!

Joyous Return to The Blue House

We had stayed at the Blue House in 2010 and loved it, so we were all looking forward to another stay. And we were not disappointed. It was clean and even new-seeming, although the house itself is old; owner Gretchen has really fixed it up beautifully. The house is cosy without being small, and is so well decorated that it makes you want to rush out and buy blue glass jugs and brown, shell-decorated scatter cushions just like Gretchen's. It has all the stuff you need for a good stay in the way of cooking, including all the paraphenalia needed to eat lobsters and crabs from the shell. Oh yum. Or anything else, actually, like a casserole. We used the Blue House as our base for local activities such a whale watching and beach visiting--to far-away Inverness, closer Whale Cove and nearby St. Pierre. My grand- kids loved it. Tallis, age almost 5, went into the water at all of them, as did Devon, age 10. So did my husband and son in law. My daughter sought sea glass at all of them and had quite a collection by the time we left. Little Tallis thrilled herself and us by finding the only pale lavender glass, which is very rare. She also reached some kind of artistic bloom on this trip, perhaps because she saw pilot whales for the first time. She was soon drawing everything she saw, from flowers to pilot whales and all kind of sea life with her colored pens. Devon loved the whales, and enjoyed one afternoon of Gretchen's marine biology course for teenagers, claiming with excitement that she actually touched a fish. She also came home with buttons to stick on her jacket, with sea creature pictures she had drawn, which Gretchen had taught her to make into wearable art. At night, we sang songs around the firepit, roasted marshmallows and sipped hot chocolate, while looking up at the vast sky available to be seen above the house. The lights across the bay glittered like gems. And in the house, the wind blew sweetly through the windows, soothing us to sleep when we finally climbed up to bed. Thanks Gretchen; you are a most accomodating hostess. And you have an awesome house!
