Maggie's Place sur le Cabot Trail, île du Cap-Breton

Nous avons été charmé par l’accueil de Uli et de sa jolie maison bien entretenue au fil des années, située dans un endroit très reposant. À quelques minutes de voiture d’une magnifique plage, la famille en a profité pour se reposer et aller à la pêche! Aussi l’emplacement était parfaitement situé pour aller visiter La Forteresse de Louisbourg (2h environ), le Parc National du Cap Breton (45 min.) ainsi que les boutiques d’artisans locaux à proximité . Nous avons même eu la chance de savourer les meilleurs homards de la région grâce aux bons conseils de Uli. Les quatre journées passées à Maggie’s place ont passé très rapidement. Notre voyage en Nouvelle Ecosse n’aurait pas été complet sans arrêter dans un endroit si accueillant et reposant pour toute la famille!

Très belle maison ancestrale rénovée avec goût. Situation idéale pour visiter l’île du Cap Breton! Merci Uli pour l’accueil!

Wonderful location for visiting Cape Breton and especially the Cabot Trail! Uli was so kind to have a fire already going in the fireplace and we immediately felt welcomed and at home at Maggie's place. The peace and quiet and fall colors were beyond our expectations for this much needed get away for my husband and myself. We were very Blessed to have attended the first night of the Celtic Colours Festival in Port Hawkesberry.We had everything we needed at our fingertips and Uli is very responsive to any needs that we had or questions about the area.

We had a wonderful time at Maggie's Place!!! Fantastic location and the old house has such charm and beautiful surroundings! Uli and Cathy are wonderful people and so interesting and accommodating!! Loki, there guest greeting dog, is also a joy! Highly recommend if visiting Cape Breton!! Will try and be back for sure!

We stayed here for 3 nights as a family (5 people). The location was good for us, though a bit far from amenities. The host (Uli) was very communicative. He advised us to stock up on supplies before arrival, which we did. Maggies is a pretty home in a lovely setting, surrounded by trees and set back from the road. It is an older home, charming and quirky so if you are the kind of person who prefers pristine and predictable surroundings, this may not be the place for you :) We had visited the Green Gables historic site a few days earlier and our kids said Maggies felt similar, but without the ropes to keep you from touching everything! They enjoyed dancing to the old-timey tunes on the crank-powered grammophone, and eating off real dishes on a real tablecloth (a nice change from chain motels). My husband's allergies (dust, smoke, fur etc) acted up a bit, I think just because it is such an old home. We did have a couple of small issues come up (e.g. a smoke alarm needing new batteries) and Uli was very responsive. Overall our experience here was positive and we will remember it fondly.
