Port hood has warm beaches
This little gem of a stay had fantastic views of the ocean. Great setup of outdoor seating including a bbq, Adirondack chairs and picnic table. The beach being so close was great for early morning walks and after dinner walks. Colin was wonderful in getting in touch for check in.

Best place to stay!
We had the best time. This cottage property is superb! Clean, comfy and beautiful views. The beach was an added bonus! Oliver was very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable of the area. We watched the Oilers pull out a win after an amazing day on the Cabot Trail. Win, win.
We will be back!

Great place to stay. Quiet cottages that are very modern and clean (no musty smell often found in cabins). The family that runs the place are friendly, helpful and take great pride in their family land.
