We have stayed at this property a few times over the years. It’s pet friendly which is a big draw. We enjoyed the hot tub. We were in chalet 10. Couple problems were addressed immediately and we were well supplied with clean towels. Staff are friendly and accommodating.

I'm only disappointed that it took me so long to realize these chalets were so close to me! They're perfect for a weekend getaway, quiet, and secluded and have beautiful views from the mountain. Staff are super friendly and check-in was very easy. The cabins have a wood stove with ample free firewood provided. It comes with a stove, fridge and microwave. The drawers and cupboards are stocked with all the utencils you need for cooking and entertaining. We brought our two dogs (only $10 per pet, per night) and they loved it. There's several walking and hiking trails marked with signs along the driveway up to the cabins. We didn't pack accordingly for the hot tub, but it's open very late! There's a sweet outdoor pool as well. Great place to bring the family in the summertime; pre-book for sure! Johns Country Canteen is only a 15-minute drive from the cabins where we picked up snacks and drinks. There's an NSLC attached to the store which is very convenient. I love the atmosphere. It was definitely difficult to stay only one night. I highly suggest staying two nights minimum! Highly suggest checking these chalets out if you live in or near Nova Scotia, you won't be disappointed.

Beautiful views in all directions. Great for an evening beverage. Mountain bike and walking trails immediately adjacent. Excellent Wifi.

I cannot wait to book our next stay! Thank you so much for this experience!

I stayed here for a weekend in February. We had a room in the main lodge which was very clean and cozy. The kitchenette has a fridge, microwave, toaster, and all the dishes and cutlery you need. We used the fitness centre, which was quite, but fine for our purposes. The staff were friendly and helpful. The property is beautiful and has several lovely look-off points. We were delighted to make the acquaintance of a barn cat named Stormy.

This is a lovely place well off the beaten path. It's a bit of a drive to the nearest food or amenities. Our room was decent. The pool and play area were modest but clean and well maintained. The jets in our bathtub didn't work, which was disappointing. We were just staying for one night and didn't bring a ton of food with us so didn't use our little kitchen. We were exhausted after a day of driving and just wanted to get a pizza delivered and no one will deliver to this place. This place would be a nice for a group outing or event like a reunion or wedding. If you plan ahead and bring food and come in a large group it is likely really great. For a family seeking a quiet evening of rest it wasn't as convenient. A big group arrived around 9 pm and they were so loud it was hard to sleep. That's not really the fault of management but just know its definitely a feature of this place. It's for big groups to hang out and have a good time.
