Cottage holiday rentals in Guysborough

We booked super last minute so we could stay longer in town to visit my grandparents - we were beyond pleased with our stay! We had asked the host if there was any stores near by as we weren’t familiar with the area just to grab the kids some hot dogs but nothing was close nor near by and the host actually came down with hot dogs, buns and ketchup for my kids! Such a sweet gesture!!! The cabin was adorable - above expectation! Will definitely book again!

Simona and Sorin's place is a real gem. The pictures don't do it justice. It's such a beautiful open space and was absolutely immaculately clean. The views were beautiful and the surroundings are so peaceful. The house is very well appointed with everything you would need and the hosts were very responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here. The details in the house were very much appreciated, like really nice linens and a well stocked kitchen. The hot tub is also a bonus. We enjoyed sitting in there in the evening and soaking in all of the surroundings.

Kirk and Kelley were very welcoming and lovely. The cottage was easy to locate and had some stunning views of the mountains and the lake. Thank you for hosting us and would indeed return for another get away in the future.

This place is exactly as the listing says. Its clean and the beds are super comfy. It's so cute, it reminds me of my grandmas house. The hot tub was so hot, and didn't lose any heat while we were in it and it was super clean. We will definitely be back.

Lisa & Jared were fabulous hosts! Their place far exceeded our expectations. The cottage was clean and comfy. Had all of the creature comforts we could ask for. We spent a lot of time enjoying the deck while our dog ran the fenced in yard. Sunrises, sunsets, tides, beach walks and relaxing afternoons sitting on the amazing deck, what more could one ask for!! Thank you for your hospitality! It was a great week!!!!

Beautiful location and beautiful cottage. Pristine condition and everything a person needs to settle in. We came prepared with our own items but they have provided many things. It is set up to have an experience and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Get some lobster and relax!

I would highly recommend. Kristy's place. It is very private with your own access to the lake. There is lots to do with canoes, lifesjackets, and washertoss games available. Or you can just relax on the back deck and enjoy the view.

Great, and comfortable spot. Really enjoyed the bird watching, and sunsets.

Super laid back area, lots of room in the backyard if you were to travel with kids or pets! Super open concept and was super homey

Maggie is such a thoughtful host. The amenities available/provided are everything and more than you'll need on your travels. I loved how peaceful and clean the property was. I would love to stay here again if I'm blessed to visit Cape Breton in the future.

Tony answered my questions promptly. Beautiful! Thanks Tony

We loved our stay! The beautiful beach is right there and a family of seals lay out on the rocks at low tides:). The home was cozy and well equipped with comfy couches inside and outside. Tamara was super helpful in many ways and even treated us to a bag of PEI mussels! We would definitely stay again!

Janet's place was simply wonderful. If you are lucky enough to go there make sure you do the trail that leads you to the train line and all the way to the beach. Simply magical... Thank you Janet :-)

Beautiful spot on a lake. Good base for kayaking on the Eastern Shore. Easy communication. Will be back again.

Barbara’s cottage is pristine, relaxing, and beautiful. It is private, cozy, the perfect retreat. Barbara goes above and beyond with special touches around the cabin. I recommend the cottage to anyone looking for some peaceful tranquility!

We had fun staying at this location , cozy place. Bernhard has been very accommodating to last minute request. Would definitely recommend this place. Love to visit again.

we enjoyed our stay. it was quiet and clean. we had plans of traveling around the cabot trail we did and came back and were able to rest and enjoy our evening. I would recommend this place if anyone is looking for a spot I think it would be wonderful in the summer.

What a wonderful place! We had such a lovely time and did not want to leave. The property is gorgeous all around and the view is absolutely spectacular. It’s quiet and peaceful with lots of space yet still close to amenities. The cottage is beautiful inside too - it’s very clean, cozy and comfortable. The hosts and property manager are incredible with excellent communication. Every aspect of our stay was delightful and we would love to return!

Michael’s place was beautiful and had an amazing scenery. He was so accommodating to our needs and extra helpful. I would definitely recommend this place as a quiet and scenic getaway place and would sure love to visit again! Stunning place and hospitable host!!

Beautiful home that well suited our needs.

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at Kim and Mark’s cottage in Lake Ainslie. Kim and Mark are attentive, responsive, and considerate hosts. The location is perfect - far enough away from the nearest town to be peaceful, but close enough to all the amenities we needed. I would highly recommend a stay at this small retreat.

This beautiful home made our Father’s Day weekend fishing trip one of the best we have had to date. Our typical place was book so we decided to try a new spot, so glad we did, this will be forever our go to spot when staying in the area!

The property is a quaint, newly renovated cottage. The decor offers a very relaxing beachy vibe. Proximity to the beach is a bonus. Theresa was excellent, readily available for any possible inquires.

Jared and Toni sent us a welcome message to make sure we made it in ok. The place was immaculate and recently updated, rustic lux. The bunkhouse, or shedroom, as we called it, was external to the house and was super quiet when the wind wasn't howling (we showed up in a storm). The view of the bay had plenty of wildlife and the supplied binoculars made the viewing that much better. Supplied Keurig coffee was a nice touch, but we opted for the coffee shop in Sheet Harbour most days, the oyster stout from Sober Island Brewing at night. Try the Spry Bay special pizza from the campground down the road, you can thank me later. We would certainly stay again, if they would have us.
