House holiday rentals in Inverness County

I’ve stayed at Donalda’s many times. It’s my go to place while staying in Port Hawkesbury. The place is always pristine and a home away from home!

This was a perfect week long retreat for our summer vacation. We spent most of our time enjoying the kitchen, screened in porch, and the pool! Just a short trip to town, it’s easy to get groceries and the kitchen in well equipped for cooking! We were in the pool everyday and felt so relaxed and at ease in the beautiful home and peaceful scenery! Peter, who stopped by mid-week was lovely and helpful. Completely recommend for a week away!

Lovely condo. Had everything. Conveniently located. Beautiful view. Several outdoor seating areas which we loved. We would highly recommend this to anyone!

This is a great place to relax! Extremely quiet, spectacular view and plenty of space for a family of 4 to 6 to spread out and chill. The private beach is a nice added touch and Baddeck is only a 2 minute drive, but I wouldn’t walk there, cars drive a little fast down that road and there’s no sidewalk. Tyler was a great host, explained everything perfectly, right down to recommending water shoes for the private beach ( which we had). There’s also a nice listing of local places and lots of brochures so you can find stuff to do. It was ~25 degrees when we stayed and it gets nice and cool at night so not having A/C isn’t a problem. There are so many windows that open in so many directions, you’ll catch a breeze.

Set in quaint harbor front location, this property was perfect for us. The mowed trails outback as just what we needed to stretch our legs and give the pups a run as well. The house itself was cozy and everything we needed to make our stay comfortable.

Our friend group of 14 had a great time at Sheena and Bryce's beautiful house. The spacious living room was perfect to play boardgames. The kitchen was perfectly equipped to cook for our big group too. The place is very quieted and very conveniently located to be close enough to do day trips to the Cabot trail. We would love to come back.

The house is modern and lovely with large windows and a deck looking out on the water. The house is large and filled with light, it’s clean and attractive and comfortable. The host John is highly responsive, answers all questions very quickly. It is 1 mile from town which makes it very convenient, and it is also very private and quiet.

fantastic place, beautiful and spacious house, we were 2 families with 5 adults and 1 kid and the house was more than enough for us, ample of bathrooms add to the comfort for people visiting as a group.

Cody’s Airbnb is a great accommodation for larger families. Everything we needed and more was available within the house. Walking distance and wheelchair accessible to sandy beach. Location is spectacular, bring your binoculars for a closer view of Port Hood Island and finish the night with a bonfire or star gazing from the balcony.

This is our second time staying here. Beautiful location and so peaceful. Great amenities. Bring extra K-cups if you are a big coffee drinker.

I had a group of four families (with young children) stay at both the eagle and the sun house. The houses were very clean and spacious. We had plenty of room for our group and even had multiple unused bedrooms. The view is spectacular from both houses - especially the sun house. The pictures don’t do it justice. There’s no air conditioning in the houses, but we were kept cool by opening the windows and using the many fans that were provided in the rooms. It was fine during our stay, but I could imagine the upstairs rooms may get stuffy if you happen to visit during a particularly warm period. There’s a walk down the hill to the beach on the lake, and the beach is rocky so don’t expect to bring young kids swimming. Even if you’re feeling adventurous you’ll need water shoes to get around. Overall a great experience and a good way for a large group to visit Cape Breton

Another great stay at the Adonai chalet. The snowmobile trails are accessible, and you can sled directly from camp. The chalet was a full house with five adults. Lots of parking perfect for anybody coming with multiple trailers. Chris and his wife are great hosts, you couldn’t ask for a better place to stay, and this is why it’s one of our favourite winter destinations.

A nice, peaceful spot with a comfortable bed, great living space, and a good-sized kitchen with everything we needed.

Very cozy and beautiful beach right down the road with beautiful sun sets

Thank you for the great stay!

Our weekend at The Mabou House was an unforgettable one! This charming, spacious house beautifully balances its old-world character with modern touches. The house itself is large and full of character, with high ceilings, original woodwork and antique details that speak to its history. The kitchen is beautiful with new appliances and the bathrooms had everything we needed. The large living spaces allowed for a memorable family get-together and the cozy nooks were perfect for a card game or reading a book. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated and had incredibly comfortable beds! It’s a unique and comfortable home that captures the best of both history and style. We will definitely be back!

We had such a great time! Loved being able to walk to the waterfront (caught the northern lights there one night!) As well as to town. The Baddeck Gathering Ceilidh was a highlight of our trip. Our group appreciated the multiple methods of caffeination offered at the cottage; the kitchen was well equipped, and our beds were very comfy! Thanks again!

We had an amazing one-month stay, the house's highlights are: Well-located residence for discovering Cape Breton Island and its surroundings. Very quiet place and away from neighbors, just across the marina. Beautiful residence, very clean, full of beautiful windows, comfortable and well air-conditioned Outdoor fire pit and pergolas were very much appreciated. All services and restaurants are less than a kilometer away Nature is very present all around the house (deer, foxes, squirrels, crabs, cormorants, herons, blue jay, kingfisher, etc.). Points to consider: No curtain in the master bedroom. No mosquito nets in any of the windows, so you'll have to choose between mosquitoes or air conditioning. Dining table for only 6 people seated (listed; maximum of 8 guests). Very poorly equipped kitchen Many bulbs are burned out indoors and outdoors and none A big thank you to our hosts for the stay!

We stayed in late February as a home base for snowshoeing. Place was perfect for that. Close to the trails we wanted, but also easy to go into town for meals and supplies. House was extremely well equipped, with lots of little extras - snacks, pop, condiments, etc. Hosts were great. An excellent winter weekend visit to Cheticamp.

I can’t recommend this place enough. Place was bigger than we expected, clean, lots of bathrooms, beautifully decorated. They thought of everything and left out some really nice extras. We had a chance to meet and learn about our hosts and they are such lovely people. Would recommend this spot to anyone!
