About this cabin rental

Precious cottage with an Angel's View

Overlooking the first Salmon Pool of the Cheticamp River, bordering the Highland National Park, and minutes away from the Acadian French village of Cheticamp, this jewel will please your soul.

Appearing to be remote, the active village is just 2 minutes away with drug store, grocery, beauty shops, gift shops, bakeries, museums, whale tours etc. But at the cabin you are surrounded by privacy of trees, mountains, and the Cheticamp River. Two blocks away is the Gulf of Saint Lawrence where the Cheticamp River spills into the salty beach.

The cabin is small but the view is large. Offering a full view of the Cheticamp River and Highlands National Park is your ever changing view. We watch moose, bear, deer, coyotes, chipmunks, squirrels, and eagles as they cross the river and forage the flora. Enjoy evening camp fires in the fire pit. Canoe the river at high tides or just sit and relax on the lawn with a view worth Angel's wings.

Inside the cabin is comfy sofa and chairs, Flat screen Smart TV, full kitchen and standard bathroom.

Fishing is fly reel only from the pool up. It is a scheduled river so 'catch and release'. You can trout fish also.

This is our private cabin so we maintain it with the comforts we expect for daily living.
We have outside amenities such as Bar- B- Que, , Fire Pit, Picnic tables, and outside chairs.


I am dog friendly. If you have a dog you want me to consider, please tell me the age, size and breed when inquiring to this listing.

During Covid Restrictions and Protocols, we are allowing 48 hours minimum between guest for our housekeepers and your security.

10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
Stayed 4 night in Sep/Oct 2025. Lovely setting on a river. Unfortunately there was a fire ban so could not use the fire pit. The cottage is small but great for 2 people and a medium sized dog. Good size yard for the dog to wander (not fenced) and several walking trails right there. Note that you can't drink the tap drink but the host provided bottled water. Because water is trucked in, showers and laundry are limited. It did not affect our stay. Note that internet in the area, as well as a good portion of Cape Breton, is down to one bar. If you plan on working remotely during your stay on the island, confirm the level of coverage where you will be staying. The excellent Aucoin Bakery is a couple of minutes away from the cottage. We were there every day. Several very good restaurants in Cheticamp.

Comfy cozy cottage with an amazing view of the Highlands and Cheticamp River, close to the National park and close to amenities and restaurant. Most importantly, a 2 minute drive from the Aucoin bakery, the very best and must popular spot in Cape Breton! Perfect for a little get away.
