Awesome five-star review from one of our AIRBNB guests! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“We were looking for a place that was close to Sydney River that would accommodate four couples as we were going to a family wedding. We rented this property as it had four bedrooms and two full baths. We have to say, this property checked all the boxes for us and delivered on them and more. We felt right at home from the time we opened the door. The pictures are exactly how the place looks and the property is so peaceful. Have to say even the hide-a-bed was very comfortable. This property is less than 30 minutes to Sydney River and Fortress Louisburg. We even found a Christmas Shop that just opened in Marion Bridge. For anyone that loves Christmas, this shop will not disappoint. My husband and I both said we would love to rent this property again.” - Wanda

We appreciate you sending us your positive feedback, Wanda! We can’t wait to have you back!☺️

Awesome review from one of our happy guests! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"This trip to our homeland, Cape Breton, from the mainland, was an extraordinary one as we were in town to lay my Dad to rest and officially celebrate his life. We expected it would be an emotional week so my brother and I (our families) wanted a place where we could retreat, reflect, remember, and spend some quality time together (without getting in each others' way :)). We were over the moon to find Catherine's listing and even more so to confirm on arrival that it was exactly as described and to spend the week there. It was absolute perfection for us in every way and will definitely be our top choice for future visits when accommodations are required. Thank you, Catherine!” - Stacey

Stacey, we’re thrilled to read your review. Thank your for your honesty and valuable feedback! We can’t wait to see you again, soon!

Fantastic review from one of our happy guests! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"The house was great, lots of space for all 5 of us to enjoy a relaxing weekend on the Mira. The property was amazing. The fire pit was great. On the third day it rained so it was great having the wood indoors. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a quite spot on the river without being too far from Sydney. There’s a small grocery store/Gas station/NSLC that was less than 10 minutes away which was super convenient” - Peter

Peter, thanks for the kind words and awesome review! We’re so happy your stay with us went smoothly.

"This home is not only beautiful, but it is kept immaculate. We were so comfortable and happy here. The host, Catherine, answered any question that I had, fast to communicate back, and gave us a great list of info and any instructions we needed. I would stay here again and again if I were to visit this area again. Perfect stay, well, except that it wasn’t long enough. Thank you so much for having us Catherine" - Stacey

Another review from one of our happy guests.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our week at your house. It was clean, well equipped and surpassed our expectations. We were alone for the first three day, then joined by our son and daughter-in-law for three days. The location was perfect for the sites that we wanted to see in Cape Breton. The beds were comfortable and there were lots of towels. The washer and dryer were a bonus. Most of the time we used the stove, but one night we barbecued and that was a treat. Unfortunately we didn't have time to use the firepits, but it was nice that they were there.” - Craig

Thank you so much for your kind words, Craig. We’re so happy you loved your experience. See you again, soon!

Excellent review from one of our happy guests.

"What a great place for the group of us to stay in between taking in the local attractions. The house had absolutely everything we need while there. The kayaks were used to watch the sunset! We really enjoyed the patio space and when the bugs arrived the screens were perfect to close up and eat supper outside. Thank you again for providing a great place to stay!!” - Shannon

Thanks for the awesome review, Shannon! We’re so happy you loved your experience. We look forward to seeing you again!

Fantastic review from one of our happy guests.

"Catherine, Your home is lovely; inside and out. The rooms were just as you had posted. The TVs in the 2 large bedrooms were perfect to watch the Queen's funeral. The deck was well used and the furniture, very comfortable. There was no fire ban, so the fire pit was used 2 of the 3 nights. The dock is amazing, and the sound of the loons made it all relaxing, truely a perfect stay. The property was very private and we saw no one. You should be very proud of your "Black Line and Spoons." We highly recommend your home and we hope to stay again. You can't beat the price! Thank you so much!” - Bev
