We stayed here for a few nights with our 2 dogs in October – beautiful location allowing for great day trips. Property is very well maintained and our cottage was immaculately clean with all the needed items and more provided. Host was very accommodating and available to answer any questions re area, etc. We definitely plan to return for another stay.

We were looking for a place to have a getaway for the fellas. My Dad, brother, son and myself decided on View of the Sea and we were not disappointed in the slightest! There is a spacious new deck with an amazing view of the water. We spent a far amount of time sipping beverages and marveling at the view. The property is immaculate and spacious. It was very peaceful and was perfect. The inside of the cottage was pristine. It is very obvious that Mark and Gina pride themselves on their property. Everything we needed was there and if I had a question Mark was very quick to supply me with the answer. Beds were comfy and we all slept well. I have already reached out to Mark about a week next summer. If you want an amazing place to relax and unwind that is close enough to all of the things that you may need choose View of the Sea Cottages. I will be back!!

Stayed one week June 21 to 30. Cottage was perfect, clean and well stocked with a splendid view.

We had a lot of rain but enjoyed watching movies as every imajinable TV service was available.

When we did have a sunny day, the verandah provided a lovely spot to watch the world go by.

Hosts were the best. always available if needed

Will definitely recommend and hope to get back.

We really enjoyed our stay in the studio cottage near the water. It was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Mark and Gina were wonderful hosts, easy to reach and happy to answer any questions. It’s only a minute’s drive to Bird Island Boat Tours, and close to the excellent Cedar House Bakery & Restaurant. We recommend View of the Sea Cottages to anyone wanting to explore the Bras d’Or Lakes region of Cape Breton!

We are return guests to View of the Sea Cottages; absolutely LOVE staying there with our two kids in Cottage 1! We were there this past May for a week and honestly, the cottage is clean and comfortable, the surrounding property is beautiful with breathtaking views and the hosts Mark and Gina, really are the nicest people. Coming home from away, it’s great to have a place to bring family and friends over, to cook a meal or have a BBQ. Every time we go back home, we always check to see if they have any availability, before we check anywhere else!

Thanks Mark & Gina for another wonderful stay ~ wish it could have been for longer. Until we see you next time!!
