Birch - Luxury 2BR Cottage w/ Scenic Views Hot Tub

KelseyRating, 5 stars9 months ago

Wonderful place to stay. We met some less than ideal weather for adventuring with our 2 year old and couldn’t have picked a better spot to lay low for a couple nights. The space is beautiful and yet the setting steals the show. The team is working very hard to ensure the experience of staying at Ridge on the Chimney is a once in a lifetime.

Coastal Cottage Suite On Baddeck Bay

TroyRating, 5 stars10 months ago

This place was absolutely beautiful. We were fortunate the rain stayed away until late in the evening so we enjoyed the beautiful sunny day. Hit the town for a relaxing walk before retreating to the chalet for a nice bbq and drinks on the patio as we watched all the boats passing by on the water. The inside was immaculate and the hot tub was an amazing way to end the night. Our host was quick to respond to questions and we couldn’t have asked for anything better. Was a great way to spend a 1 year anniversary 😊

The location was great with easy walk to beach for sunset. The proximity to the park was wonderful and close to town for easy access to restaurants and grocery store. The house was clean, but dated and very camp like, rustic. Had a few flies and bugs come out when we warmed up house but we're manageable. Overall a nice experience and an enjoyable stay.

Stunning Cottage, big Ocean Views, 3 Min. to Beach

ArndtRating, 5 stars10 months ago

We really loved the Cape cottage of Stewart and Belle. The location is very private and offers an awesome 180 degree ocean view. It is near a beautiful beach, great even for extended swims. We found the cottage to be a very special place: the views from the deck, observing the resident bald eagle pair, watching for whales below or for shooting stars sometimes kept us so captivated that we did not want to leave “our hill”. The house is very well equipped, the kitchen spotless + with all necessities, a big stack of fluffy towels (including beach towels), fast WIFI, with a nice selection of books and some music. Stewart dropped in after check-in and offered a wealth of tips for activities in the region. Great! The cottage is “loft style”, bedrooms have walls but are open to the cathedral ceiling. All other services (restaurants, groceries, gas, ice cream…) are between 15 and 25 mins away, so you want to plan for example your grocery shopping alongside your activities. We will be back!
