Features you'll love:
• gorgeous location and spectacular setting; there’s ocean, a huge beach nearby and breathtaking panoramas.
• huge windows with incredible views of beach and island
• open structure, contemporary yet rustic furnishings, beautiful artwork, large leather couch, walls finished with white boards inside, 150-year-old Pine floors and cedar shingles outside, in classic Cape Breton style.
• wi-fi and a very fast Fibre- op internet connection
• The second-floor bedroom area offers 2 Queen beds
• a fully-equipped kitchen, living area and bright bathroom with heated floors and a fully-tiled shower.
• all necessaries included: linens, towels, kitchen staples, soaps.
• large deck with Adirondack chairs and BBQ
• A wood stove for cozy Fall days and electric heat.

• famous Chimney Corner beach 2 minutes away with safe swimming for kids, two other beaches within 6 minutes; Cabot Trail 5 minutes, National Park 30 minutes.
This architect-designed cottage is built on a bluff over the ocean and was designed to recall the best aspects of Maritime tradition, but to modernize them with an open-concept interior. It has a summer-y feeling, with a high ceiling, boarded walls and fresh white paint.
Sunsets will knock your socks off. This design is best suited for couples, or couples with one or two children. All on a gorgeous property with 3 large ponds and 2 spring-fed brooks. You'll have a tough time leaving the cottage!
Fishermen haul their lobster traps each year out in front of our cottage. Moose, eagles, deer and foxes are regulars. It's easy to meet people here, and the daily pace here is slower than in most cities. Cape Breton summers are warm-to-hot in the day, but perfect in the evening, and at the shore there are lovely ocean breezes.

Can’t speak more highly of our stay at SeaSky Cottage. Not only was our host Stewart fantastic - making sure to come over after we arrived to make sure we were all settled in, as well as give us detailed recommendations for our stay. All of which I can say ended up being highlights of our trip. If you are looking to spend time in Cape Breton, and especially if you are considering a trip to play at the famed Cabot Cliffs you have to consider SeaSky Cottage! We will 100% be returning.

What a fantastic place -- with a great host in Stewart. First, the house. Stewart and his wife built this place as their cottage and, when they built a new home some years later started renting it out. It's perfect for a couple, a family with small kids, or a couple of friends. Beds are in a very nice loft upstairs, the ground floor is perfectly appointed with everything you need, and the deck is stunning.. Everything is in perfect condition. The setting is remarkable. In a field of wildflowers, over a cliff that looks west onto the Gulf of St. Lawrence. It's quiet and beautiful. The area is wonderful too. This isn't big touristy Cape Breton -- this is village Cape Breton. The out of province license plates you see probably belong to local families back to visit parents and cousins... The beaches are quiet, family, surprisingly warm for this part of the country (totally swimmable), and local. Chimney Corner is a few minutes away. Our other favourites were Whale Cove and Margaree Harbour Village just up the road. You're 30 mins north of Inverness, a beautiful town which serves as a hub for the region and has one of the world's best golf courses (Cabot Links), and a great restaurant (The Annex). You're 30 mins south of Cheticamp, equally beautiful and a centre of francophone Acadian culture in Cape Breton. The Margaree River is idyllic and a great salmon fishing river in season. Groceries are 20 mins away in Lemoyne or Margaree River Forks.Thank you Stewart!!

Three of us spent 7 nights, mid-July at this fabulous ocean-front property. Everything about this cottage was as advertised. Great location, looking out at the Gulf of Saint Lawrence with perfect sunsets & easy beach access nearby. Hosts Stewart & Bell were amazing our first night with their personalized overview of Cape Breton Island & all it has to offer in the way of dining, pubs, not-to-miss places to visit, coastline drives, hiking options, etc. When planning a visit to Cape Breton Island, definitely consider staying at this or one of the several adjacent properties managed & owned by the same Host. 5 Stars all the way!!!

We had a fabulous vacation experience - even with hurricane winds! Stewart was a great host and we took many of his recommendations including beautiful hikes, fun restaurants and the incredible music at Normaway Inn! Location could not have been better with eagles, seals and even a whale right in front of our cottage. This was one of our most memorable vacations and we can’t wait to return!Judy and John Miller
