What guests think
At Knotty Pine Ocean Front Cabin - Adults Only, travelers praise the waterfront Cabot Trail setting, sweeping ocean views and sunsets, private decks with BBQs, and friendly staff, while noting unit-to-unit variability from rustic older cabins to newer, modern spaces.
Several reviews mention open-plan bathrooms with little privacy, some small or dated units, and noise transfer in downstairs duplex rooms. Cleanliness is frequently praised, though a number of guests reported lapses and maintenance issues such as dust, weak water pressure or quality, AC problems, and worn fixtures. The on-site restaurant receives mixed feedback, ranging from good breakfasts and seafood to very slow service, limited availability or closures, and occasional poor value. Expect a peaceful stay where the specific unit you book greatly shapes the experience.

Beautiful location and view! Lower cottages where we stayed away from the highway on Cabot Trail, so very peaceful. Restaurant food was decent but nothing special. No liquor license so was quite empty. When we arrived they were unsure if the Restaurant would open that night.

I really hate to give this property a low rating because it could be a wonderful place to stay if we had gotten a good nights sleep. It’s on the water, the people are really nice and it was super clean; however, it was so hot in our room that we had a miserable night. There was AC in the bedroom but it put out as much hot air as cool so we turned it off. On a better note, the little restaurant on premises has an excellent breakfast and a good cup of coffee.

Room was very clean but dinner service at the restaurant was very slow and most of the items on the menu were out of stock. Food was not good . I would recommend to stay but eat somewhere else

Our cabin was great, amazing view of the water with large windows and balcony. Very clean. Only complaint was restaurant service. Took 30 minutes just to get cup of plain coffee and another 30 minutes (total of 1 hour) to get eggs, toast, hash browns. The meal was cold except for warm hash browns. And we were the only customers!

These little cabins are very cute. The top row appear to be the original ones with the bottom row, closer to the water, appearing to be newer We grabbed an original one because it had a kitchen and bbq grill and aince it was off season and we werent sure about restaurants, we figured we'd cook. Good idea since the restaurant here was closed and whatnfew others there are were a bit of a drive. Check was easy, parked right in front of the unit. Cabin is rustic but clean and nicely decorated. The bathroom was small but functional, the bedroom was fine. Theres a living, dining area which was comfortable. The deck was great and we caught the last of the sun before it dropped behind the hills and wstched the water. It was quiet and weslept well. When we enquired about ice for our cooler to keep meds cold the next day, becaus3 the restaurant eas closed they had none so the lady brought us her own ice tray so we could make some overnight. Above and beyond service

we got to stay in cottage d, perfect for a couple who is very close - everything you need all in one open airy and clean layout from bed to bath to living room couch and dining table - stunning view, even from bed, lovely balcony, grill out if you want - even better, walk up to the little restaurant on site and enjoy the excellent dumplings and a rice bowl with veggies (with or without meat, with or without heat). could hear the lapping of water from the bay from the balcony and see a million stars out there at night! beautiful deep bathtub! it's very romantic or relaxing for a solo traveler! the family who owns and runs the place are wonderful and offer amazing service! very pleased.

The cabin was newer construction and was lovely in theory. It appears that the cabins are not being cleaned well or cared for as they should. There was a lot of dust on the floors and the ceiling fan, the sink drain was brown with crud, and the shower fan was falling out of the ceiling when we arrived. Paint was peeling off the walls in the bathroom and there was tissue pushed into the corner of the shower which I’m assuming was to plug a hole. The coffee machine also had old grounds inside and was badly stained, so I didn’t want to use it. It’s not all bad though, the linens are clean, the furniture is nice, and the patio and view are amazing. Just a bit more attention to detail with cleaning the cabin would go a long way.

A very nice place to stay. Room was impeccably clean. While following a staff member into another (unoccupied at the time) cabin, he took his shoes at the door! My one problem with the place was that, for the first 4 days, we had no Internet access. They had to call in outside help to redo at least part of their WiFi setup. Since we arrived on a Friday of a holiday weekend, this meant delays. After it was fixed, we had excellent WiFi with about 200 mbps downloads and at least 80 mbps uploads.

The view from our cabin was absolutely amazing. Being able to sit on the deck late into the evening and watch the sun go down was a very memorable experience. The unit is an older building so a little dated. It was nice having 2 bedrooms and also to have 2 queen beds in the one bedroom. On the negative side, cleanliness of the unit could certainly be improved. The TV remote was very sticky! (and we forgot to bring our own wipes). That sticky remote slipped between the couch cushions at one point and it was a very "crumby" experience retrieving it. And the extra blanket in the one bedroom needed a wash as it looked like pizza bits or spaghetti sauce was stuck to it. Also one of the 2 patio chairs we couldn\'t use as it was ripped. All of this was reported as we checked out so I\'m hoping staff were able to attend to our concerns.

The unit we rented (9A) looked like an old fishing cabin inside complete with cobwebs everywhere. It was basically an old basement apartment. The newest thing inside was the TV. My family did not enjoy the stay, though the staff was friendly and helpful. Expected more for what we paid.

Beautiful view from the cottage, staff was excellent (particularly David who was very accommodating). The only drawback was the people on the cottage above us whose kids kept stomping late in the night. I think the management should put it in policy to be mindful of other guests. It did not really matter to us as we were up quite late, but for ithers it may have been an issue. Overall, it was a good and worthwhile experience.

Staying at this cottage was an interesting experience. The cottage is well-equipped with everything you need, including the ability to cook your own meals. The cozy decorations add a warm and pleasant touch to the atmosphere. From the outside, you can see the ocean, and the lower level is closer to the water, but families with young children aren’t allowed to stay there for safety reasons. A friendly tip: avoid booking Room 7. It’s the only room with another unit above it. The view is obstructed by trees, blocking the ocean view, and you won’t know who’s staying above you. In our case, the upstairs neighbors were dragging luggage and running around late into the night, which made it hard to get any rest.

The room was beautiful, though having no walls to the bathroom was a bit odd and I wished it had been made clear. We often stepped outside whenever someone needed to use the restroom. It didn't bother us the bathtub being open to the room since it was a romantic trip...but having to be in the same room as your partner when they go to the bathroom is not super romantic and can kill the mood. The view was beautiful and the staff was lovely. We enjoyed our stay and would book here again.

David and his team provided impeccable customer service and east coast hospitality. We really enjoyed our one night stay in the lower, new and modern units. They are very tastefully decorated and comfortable, with beautiful views of the bay and the Keltic Lodge in the distance. Note: if you are in the lower units, you’ll just have a bbq, microwave and small fridge, with just the basic plates and cutlery, so make sure you bring whatever else you need, including BBQ tools.I would definitely stay here again!

The owner gave a very warm reception, assigned us an older room, and then upgraded us to one of the new cabins right on the waterfront. The room was meticulously clean. It included dishware and silverware, microwave, nice furniture, and sliding glass doors to a deck with small table and chairs as well as a grill. The bathroom was really new and clean, and they provided everything we needed. The TV was brand new, but we had some trouble getting it to work. After applying a YouTube video fix, all was well. We felt very safe there. We have recommended it to friends who are going to NS. We didn't stay for breakfast (not included in the price), but for those who eat meat and eggs it might be good. The one improvement we'd like to see is better stairs and railings between the parking spot and the door for those who aren't fully mobile and those who are physically challenged.

Mooi gelegen plek op doorreis door Cape Brenton Island. Het niet ruim, maar alle voorzieningen zijn aanwezig en de bedden slapen prima. Het restaurant is beter dan sommige reviews doen geloven. En het wordt gerund door hele vriendelijke en behulpzame mensen.

Beautiful location and view! Lower cottages where we stayed away from the highway on Cabot Trail, so very peaceful. Restaurant food was decent but nothing special. No liquor license so was quite empty. When we arrived they were unsure if the Restaurant would open that night.

I really hate to give this property a low rating because it could be a wonderful place to stay if we had gotten a good nights sleep. It’s on the water, the people are really nice and it was super clean; however, it was so hot in our room that we had a miserable night. There was AC in the bedroom but it put out as much hot air as cool so we turned it off. On a better note, the little restaurant on premises has an excellent breakfast and a good cup of coffee.

Accommodations are lovely, well kept, and in a great location that’s easy to find with ample parking. Avoid the onsite “restaurant” at all costs!! Horrific service, mediocre food and WAY overpriced.

Room was very clean but dinner service at the restaurant was very slow and most of the items on the menu were out of stock. Food was not good . I would recommend to stay but eat somewhere else

Our cabin was great, amazing view of the water with large windows and balcony. Very clean. Only complaint was restaurant service. Took 30 minutes just to get cup of plain coffee and another 30 minutes (total of 1 hour) to get eggs, toast, hash browns. The meal was cold except for warm hash browns. And we were the only customers!

These little cabins are very cute. The top row appear to be the original ones with the bottom row, closer to the water, appearing to be newer We grabbed an original one because it had a kitchen and bbq grill and aince it was off season and we werent sure about restaurants, we figured we'd cook. Good idea since the restaurant here was closed and whatnfew others there are were a bit of a drive. Check was easy, parked right in front of the unit. Cabin is rustic but clean and nicely decorated. The bathroom was small but functional, the bedroom was fine. Theres a living, dining area which was comfortable. The deck was great and we caught the last of the sun before it dropped behind the hills and wstched the water. It was quiet and weslept well. When we enquired about ice for our cooler to keep meds cold the next day, becaus3 the restaurant eas closed they had none so the lady brought us her own ice tray so we could make some overnight. Above and beyond service

The cabin was newer construction and was lovely in theory. It appears that the cabins are not being cleaned well or cared for as they should. There was a lot of dust on the floors and the ceiling fan, the sink drain was brown with crud, and the shower fan was falling out of the ceiling when we arrived. Paint was peeling off the walls in the bathroom and there was tissue pushed into the corner of the shower which I’m assuming was to plug a hole. The coffee machine also had old grounds inside and was badly stained, so I didn’t want to use it. It’s not all bad though, the linens are clean, the furniture is nice, and the patio and view are amazing. Just a bit more attention to detail with cleaning the cabin would go a long way.

The cabins were great. Ours was looking right over the water and we saw an eagle flying above us. Quiet, comfortable and beautiful.
