The Lookout - Executive Class Mini Villa with Ocean Views and Swimming Beach

The Lookout is a new executive-class, mini villa / "couples cottage" which is packed full of comforts. It's located on a majestic 50+ acre property with a nature trail and a sensational, sandy beach - a great spot for swimming, walking, photography and sunsets. Located just minutes north of Port Hood, 30 minutes from Cabot Cliffs and a scenic one hour drive from the Cabot Trail.

Enjoy ocean views and stunning sunsets from the open-concept living area and sundeck. Amenities include a queen bed, wheelchair accessible bathroom, fridge/ microwave/sink (for light meal prep), WiFi, smart TV, air conditioning, access to Colindale Beach and a 240 volt outlet for EV charging.

There are two other mini villas nearby, thoughtfully positioned so that none obstruct each others views.

Additionally, PLEASE NOTE:

1. For safety and other reasons, children must be 8 years or older to stay, and pets of any kind are not permitted.

2. The price quoted EXCLUDES a 3.45% fee to cover the new Cape Breton Marketing Levy and associated taxes. THIS "EXTRA" WILL BE ADDED TO THE COST OF THE STAY ONCE BOOKED (as we are unable to include this charge in the quoted price shown).

3. The use of the nature trails and beach zone on the property is at the guest's own risk and requires signing a liability waiver (available upon arrival).

4. In booking with us, guests acknowledge that COVID-19 remains a risk for all travelers, even vaccinated persons. While we take steps to reduce risks, guests in booking with us agree to voluntarily assume the risk of exposure and agree to hold the owners harmless from any claims arising from COVID-19

5. Although this property description may indicate that there is one bedroom, the Lookout is an open concept unit with the bed located in the main living area..

Centrally located, my stay at The Lookout allowed me to attend three outstanding Celtic Colours concerts in Judique, Cheticamp and Mabou. The accommodation is all that was promised… spotless, all amenities, comfortable bed, great shower, cozy even as the October temperatures dipped and wind drove the waves along the coast. One morning, I walked to the shore on the private path… here are some of my impressions— Collindale I walk a well-tended path to the shore past the lonely cormorant perched on Sutherland’s Pond past the pair of flickers startled from feeding on rose hips Up and over, through wind-waved dune grass to powder soft sloping sands white-capped waves sailing on blue water Crashing the beach I follow the faint track of a coyote stopping to see where he circled round a derelict lobster trap once fragrant bait bag hanging from wire ribs I sit on a weathered trunk bleached by sun and salt water watch a flight of crows helter-skeltered by the wind On my slow-stepping return through the tangle of bayberry and regosa one last raspberry reveals all of summers sweetness on my tongue October 17 2024

False advertising
Properly was beautiful but more of a wilderness cabin than a beach front villa. And the coyote notice was sent out 15 mins before arrival. Walk to beach was a 10 min walk through wilderness path the size of a ride on lawnmower. Will not be returning or recommending. Too much money for what you received!

Great view and clean, modern property
This property was new, clean and modern - very comfortable. The view of the water and forest was awesome. We were reasonably close to villages where we could get supplies and attend the many musical events of the Kitchenfest. Hosts were very attentive and conscientious. Highly recommended.
