From every room of this newly constructed salt box house on its lofty seaside bluff, a variety of panoramic vistas of the Town, Skerwink Cliffs, Admiral’s Lighthouse on Fort Point with the ocean beyond are enjoyed at Commander’s Keep Vacation Home. Luxury and location make this an unforgettable vacation destination.
Commander’s Keep Vacation Home is a piece of paradise, showcasing the most spectacular scenery and breathtaking views of the ocean and rugged coastline that Newfoundland has to offer!
Though this gorgeous three bedroom home was built in 2009, it maintains the feel of a traditional Newfoundland home. The south-facing side of the house has French doors opening onto a huge wraparound deck overlooking the ocean. Downstairs, three sides of the house have full length windows, giving the feeling of being enveloped by the coastal grandeur. Our ocean front location affords particularly panoramic views where you can witness spectacular sunsets & unforgettable magenta sunrises.

Everything about this place is amazing! It is beautiful inside and out! The layout of the interior, the decor, the kitchen, the bedrooms... everything is perfect! It is clean,cozy, warm and inviting, you will never want to leave. Everything you could possibly want or need is there. Catherine has got every single detail covered! There are even binoculars in every room! And then there is that view! It is intoxicating!!!! Perched on the cliffs right on the ocean, it doesn’t get much better!! We sat on the deck every day! The view is amazing from every room inside the house as well, windows everywhere!! Location also perfect. Private but walking distance to everything in Trinity! Trinity is lovely ( just be aware there is no where to get groceries there, but places very short car ride away) make sure you do the Skerwink Trail and go whale watching with Kriss from Sea of Whales which is just down the road! Catherine is very kind and easy to communicate with! Quick to answer any questions and give suggestions / info on the area! The Commanders Keep is beautiful! We could not of asked for a better place to stay! I will be dreaming of the day we get to return! Thank you for sharing your place with us!!

Spectacular views from every window and deck in a bustling community with lots to see and do. Hiked all the marvellous, scenic local trails (Skerwink, Fox, Horsechops, Gun Hill, Taverner's Point, and Kersley Cove) and came home to gourmet meals in well-equipped kitchen. Feasted on hand-picked berries which were still in season in late September. Easy day trips to Bonavista, the 5 coves of Route 235, and Random Passage site in New Bonaventure. Took in a play at Rising Tide Theatre and were generally inspired by the hard-working, but always happy local folk we met. It is worth a day just to amble about Trinity itself with its quaint museums, awesome restaurants (the Café for lunch and the dockside place for fish and chips). Also worth a drive around to Fort Point and the lighthouse which you can see from the deck. Overall, all six of us were delighted with our one week stay!

The pictures of this house do not do it justice. It was purely spectacular, clean, comfortable and in great working order. The views off the deck are not to be replicated anywhere in Trinity. We felt so lucky to have stayed here.

My wife and I spent five wonderful days at “the Keep” in Trinity. The setting is unbelievable, out on the end of a cliff with water views in three directions and a working lighthouse directly across Trinity Bay. Trinity is a charming and historic town well located to day trip the Bonavista Peninsula in search of icebergs or visit the beautiful Terra Nova National Park. In Trinity, don’t miss the historical pageant/tour and the dinner theater at the Rising Tide. We found Commander’s Keep to be immaculately clean and well equipped and provisioned, with an abundance of dishes, glassware, pots, pans, utensils, spices, condiments, and an abundance of sheets, towels, paper products and cleaners. All appliances were in good working order, and the instructions for the TV and high speed internet were clear. Catherine could not have been easier to work with, responding to all of our inquiries promptly and courteously. We would gladly return to this one of a kind rental property.
