Be greeted by a beautiful a view of the beautiful Cheticamp harbour and Island as you sit up in bed or walk out on the ocean deck.

Overhanging the Atlantic ocean, the Seaside Shack is walking distance to whale cruises, family friendly activities, restaurants and Acadian culture. It is a quick drive to the Cape Breton Highlands National Park, many beaches, river tubing, paddle boarding and other attractions.

If you’d rather stay in, relax with a book or barbecue on the wrap-around deck as you wait for the sun to set over the island.

Perfect for the two of us.
We enjoyed our stay. Great view from the deck. The location was perfect for accessing the Cabot trail and the area venues for the Celtic Colours festival. We would highly recommend this property.

Perfect base to explore northern Cape Breton
A beautifully functional apartment in the middle of Cheticamp, right next to Breton Highlands National Park for drives and hiking. Everything was in good condition and convenient to use. There's road noise since the apartment is right next to the main road through town; we got used to it quickly. Gorgeous sunset views over the harbor from the back deck.

Cape Breton
Cheticamp is a great base for all kinds of activities in Cape Breton. A short drive from golf and kayaking in Inverness; hiking in the national park; and even exploring over in Ingonish. Good restaurants, take-out seafood nearby, and an excellent French bakery - we stopped every morning. The house was cozy and comfortable. Enjoyed the back deck for dinner and sunset! Traffic on the road during the day disappears at night! We made good use of the national park pass!

Summer Breeze
We stayed 2 weeks in Cheticamp and enjoyed every minute. The people are kind and friendly, the Highlands National Park is stunning and the music makes you want to dance. Seaside Shack is well appointed and waking up to an ocean breeze is amazing.

On the water
The gentleman who was the host was very pleasant & accommadating. The place was very clean & cozy.It was furnished well & had everything you would need in it. It was nice & private. I took my husband to Cape breton to fish & stay for a couple of days for his 60th birthday. we had a great time. It was exactly what we were told it was & what we seen in pictures. the Evangeline diner across the street, great food & friendly people.

Great property right on the water!
The Seaside Shack is the perfect home base for exploring the Cape Breton National Park. The accommodation is well presented and has all the comforts of home. Though the A/C is listed as 'old & unreliable', we stayed in 30C heat with no issues whatsoever. The breeze off the water is perfect. A terrific stay!

Excellent home base for Cape Breton Island excursions
This property exceeded our expectations. Comfortable bed, loved the ceiling fans (didn't have to use AC) Coffee maker and coffee/tea. Lots of comfortable seating in the tv room. Nice shower and full sized toilet (it's a rareity in the area it seems). I'd like to take this property and plant it in all the locations we visit. It's perfectly located to walk to the grocery and liquor stores, and a lovely little boardwalk in the town. Great restaurants as well. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

On the Beach 2022
For our second trip to Nova Scotia, we ventured further afield to Cope Breton Island. Our stop in Cheticamp turned out to be a good one but, at just 2 nights, too short. There was plenty to do in town plus good restaurants. Cheticamp proved to be a good base for day trips including into the western part of the Park. Our apartment was great - completely equipped, comfortable, well decorated, clean and with a great view! Parking is awkward but worth it to be right on the waterfront. The main parts of town are walkable. You will have to drive north a bit to visit the excellent Aucoin Bakery. Jon was the perfect host - a fount of local information and close by if any problems. Highly recommended.
