Incredible property!
Beautiful property, clean and welcoming place. Weather kept us inside but would love to stay here again and use the fireplace and enjoy the river.

Perfect Retreat
It was an absolutely perfect piece of Cape Breton. Rolling hills, lots of trees, beautiful view of the water. Well located to visit any of the main Cape Breton attractions (Louisbourg, Baddeck). Place was absolutely beautiful, everything you could want easily found. The host was clear with the communication (how to get there, what to expect, etc.). For us novice canoers, they gave some great advice about which part of the river would be best.

Great family place
My husband and I stayed here with our two adult children (19 and 21), my Dad and my brother and sister in law. It had lots of room for all of us. Having a separate suite for my brother and sister in law worked well for us. We were visiting family in Glace bay and the drive wasn’t too bad - about 40 mins. We saw a fox, a turtle, beavers and loons. Between trips to see family we had a few hours to ourselves and took advantage of the canoe and kayak. Even had a fire on the last night we were there even if it was a bit chilly outside. Rosie the dog who wandered over could be a therapy dog - love her. Kitchen had all we needed and beds were comfortable. Would definitely go back.

great experience
had a great time here with my friends for mid semester break. cute spot. little more isolated than expected but that kind of added fun to the experience. if you dont mind driving a little out of the way for things then this is perfect. the best aspects were the kayaks and fire pit. lots of wood for us to use as well. very comfortable beds and lots of choices for tv. overall great first time experience for us all in cape breton. would recommend to a friend.

A Hidden Gem
What a beautiful location with lots of amenities. Everyone was kept busy with watercraft, animals, such as ducks, squirrels and eagles. Firepit was great in the evening. The cottage has everything, although the TV had Netflix, but no live shows, such as current news programs, which we missed. They had games, books, a/c, fireplace downstairs, etc. Super good. We met the owners, Kendra and Chris, when they came to replace the kitchen faucet the next day. Very nice people. Super accommodation for the price, even though 45 minutes from Sydney. Roads were very good. Highly recommended.

Lovely spot, comfortable home
We felt at home in this quiet, clean and comfortable house. Everything was as advertised. The owner, Kendra, was easy to communicate with, and was helpful when we hit a snag with our flight. Beautiful view of the river. Saw a bald eagle having its breakfast right outside. We hope to be back for a longer stay next time

Nice private getaway
The property is located on a secluded back country road with access to a very quiet river, with canoes and kayaks to use. Thr Cabin itself is very clean and has everything you need (Kureg coffee pods were a nice touch). There are games available and a firepit. The main floor and the basement are not connected and have separate entrances. This can be beneficial in a multi-family scenario however, it may not be used if you are just going with just a spouse (unless you're in the dog house). The owners were very nice and accomodating. I would recommend this spot for a private, quiet getaway with water access.

Overdue family get-together
My wife and I finally were able to introduce my mother to her grandson for the first time. This cottage was the perfect backdrop to a long over due family reunion. We will be sure to come back again on our next trip to Cape Breton

Fantastic Cape Breton Getaway
This property exceeded our expectations. We were provided with all the comforts of home while getting to enjoy the beautiful property that had everything a family could need and more. Kendra made our trip worry-free and we are looking forward to booking again.

No words to describe...
Amazing oasis! My two week stay at this fabulous cottage was beyond my expectations. Truly way beyond 5 stars . The owners are fabulous. No words to express how they welcomed me and made me feel at home. They always kept in touch throughout my stay to see if there was anything that I needed or if there was anything they could do. Very hospitable. Pictures do not do the property justice. You have to see it to believe it. Everything in the cottage was immaculate. All the comforts of home and then some. I would highly recommend this property. Definitely would rent this cottage again. Thank you very much for the opportunity to rent this cottage.

A delightful Nova Scotia Retreat
The four of us (two couples in our 70s) were very impressed with our three day stay at this Mira Bradan Waterfront Retreat. We toured, hiked and dined in the Cape Breton Highland National Park, the Cabot trail and nearby cities and towns. We were fortunate to have wonderful weather. The "Retreat" property was clean, spacious, quiet, scenic and comfortable. The views of the river and surrounding area were magnificent. I wish we had had time to spend a week or two but "maybe next time".
