Cottage vacation 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.

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.

Situated meters from the water, our cabin was a perfect couples get away. Thoughtfully appointed, extremely clean and above all very private. Although there are a couple of cabins on the property, there never was a time where we felt the presence of others. The hot tub privacy and views are amazing, and our hostess was very responsive. Above all, definitely a stay we want to do again. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone wanting to experience a natural and private couples retreat.

Our stay was fantastic! The hosts were friendly and welcoming. We had to check in at their charming pub nearby, which caught my eye with its beautiful exterior. It was undergoing renovations and we couldn’t dine in, but the hosts kindly offered us takeout. The food was delicious, and they even hand-delivered it to our Airbnb, which was a nice touch! The view from the cottage was amazing, and nothing beats enjoying it from the hot tub. I have no complaints at all! Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a wonderful getaway.

Thank you for everything, we felt like we were home

Lovely location - even though it was cool, we made a point of sitting outside to enjoy the beautiful view. (Which we could also appreciate as soon as we woke in the morning). We had one very minor issue with the toilet and Janet responded immediately to resolve it.

This cottage is a true PEI gem! The location was private and beautiful - that view from the porch! - and cottage had everything we needed for a family vacation. Close to stunning beaches (Panmure Island was our fav) and the charming town of Montague. Being able to use the new sea kayaks to explore the river/harbour was an added bonus! Steve and Lori were excellent hosts - very communicative and welcoming, they made the cottage feel like home away from home. We'd highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Tony was very friendly and helpful! The place was tidy and cozy and worked perfectly for our visit to Panmure Island/PEI. Beach close by!

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.

Jody’s place was perfect for a one night stay along our road trip. Very peaceful and quiet surroundings. Unfortunately we couldn’t enjoy the trails on the property due to it being bug season but the quick walk to the brook at the back of the property was lovely (loved watching and listening to the resident raven family!) Jody was the most friendly and responsive host. Most Airbnbs have excessive cleaning rules but Jody really made us feel spoiled and helped us feel like we’re on a true vacation. Overall, a very clean rustic little cottage in a very quiet neighbourhood. Highly recommend as a stopover spot if travelling through the area.

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!

It’s a real Gem!!! Located a the month of Cabot trail with fantastic waterfront property!

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

This was our fourth stay in Aaron's beautiful cottage on Bell Bay Way in Baddeck, Nova Scotia, and it won't be our last! We stay every May for the iconic Cabot Trail Relay Race, and the cottage is the perfect place for our family of four racers to stay and relax when we are not out running and playing on the Cabot Trail. The beds are perfection, so comfortable. The views of the lake and the surrounding woods and mountains are gorgeous. The kitchen is full of everything you could possibly need, and the closets are full of toys and games. Aaron is so thoughtful with welcoming delicious drinks, and this year, we arrived during a cold nor'easter, so the gas fireplace was delightful on the first night. The cottage is big and sunny and so close to Baddeck. You could walk to town, but we drive the short drive and enjoy all the local flavor and flair of Baddeck in the shoulder season. You cannot go wrong staying at this beautiful home in this beautiful part of the world. We are so grateful.

Everything at the cottage was fantastic; we felt right at home. There were eight of us, and the house had enough space for us all and enough bathrooms. The kitchen was well stocked and had all the appliances that you need. It was a great stay, and I recommend it to anyone

Wow, what a fabulous place, it had everything we needed and more. The setting is stunning, so peaceful, a perfect retreat and with plenty to do, we loved the boat and kayaks, thank you for a wonderful stay.

Loved the location and the home was very clean and tidy. All the conveniences were there and we found the home comfortable. The only negative thing I could even mention would be related to the heat of the home in the living room. Of course, my buddy and I are both seniors and perhaps we are to use to a warmer environment. It's likely an age thing but after contacting Moira, we corrected this very quickly...Overall a very great spot and I recommend it to anyone....Moira was very pleasant to deal with...

We had a great stay. Very comfortable and clean. Felt right at home. Did not want to leave. Would highly recommend Gloria’s place.

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!

We enjoyed our one-night stay at the Starry Night cabin. Everything was clean, the decorations were lovely, and the view of the lake was beautiful. We were there at the end of October, and despite the fact that it snowed a bit overnight, we were warm enough thanks to the small space heater. Shelby and Devon also thoughtfully provided some extra blankets due to the weather. The only drawback - and it's a very small one! - is that the shower floor was almost flush with the the bathroom tiles. This caused water to leak onto the bathroom floor. Overall a very nice stay and a place we would recommend!
