Aberdeen Hillview Retreat


Set in a beautiful forested setting 1 km from the Little Narrows ferry, the warm waters of the Bras D’or await you!
This property has something for everyone! The main attraction is the waterfront dock which is a two minute walk from the RV where you'll be able to launch your kayak or canoe.
Relax on the dock bench or beach chair while soaking up the sun enjoying your favourite book. Enjoy a bike ride, walk, or drive to the Cabot Trail (entrance is 10 minutes away), Baddeck (20 mins) or Whycocomagh Provincial Park (10 minutes).
The RV sleeps 2 and is designed for a couple or single reservation.
The RV is air conditioned to escape from those hot summer days and nights in an air conditioned environment. It also has a furnace if nights turn cold. Wifi / Internet service. Guests have access to a washing machine/ dryer in the RV along with a drying rack on the deck.
Rentals run from the May 13, 2024 weekend to Thanksgiving 2024. A minimum 2 night stay.

We have been hosts ourselves for over ten years and were so impressed with the hosts and this accommodation. Communication and directions were great. We had absolutely no problem finding the place. The hosts were very responsive and attentive...they are the best hosts we've ever met! The trailer is fully equipped and squeaky clean. The location is so quiet and picturesque. Before leaving, we booked the same dates for next year. We would highly recommend this property for anyone exploring the Baddeck/Whycocomah area of Cape Breton.

Perfect home away from home
My hubby and I used the Hillview Retreat as a base to explore Cape Breton Island and it was a great place to do that from and to come back to at the end of each day. The trailer is extremely comfortable and roomy. The owners, Pat and Rick, were welcoming and friendly, and we enjoyed meeting them and their doggies and spending a bit of time with them. The trailer was very clean, the kitchen was well appointed, and there were a lot of welcome touches like soap and shampoo, plenty of towels, dvd movies to watch, so many things! It was also great having a washer and dryer in the trailer. We can’t say enough good things about Hillview Retreat. We would highly recommend it to others and would definitely rebook should we find ourselves on Cape Breton again.

Hillview Experience
My husband and I had a wonderful time at Hillview Retreat. The accommodations were perfect for the two of us. Our hosts made sure that we had everything that we needed. It was clean and comfortable with a beautiful view. There was even a vase of fresh flowers waiting for us upon our arrival! The setting was quiet and peaceful and convenient for our Cabot Trail tour.
