Book Sampson Cove hotels

Rooms are beautiful

The hot tub view was beautiful. The cabin is basically brand new with a nice interior with extras from the hosts that make it more special. I especially loved the Christmas decor.

Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and accommodating.

It was everything we were looking for. Quite, great scenery. The dome was clean and was equipped with anything you would need or want...except tea. Lots of coffee but no tea. Other than that we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.

Sailor's Rest was awesome. We found the house to be as described; and the host was communicative and responsive. As the pictures show, the house is hard by the ocean, with a little cove just a two minute walk away.There is lots of wildlife - bald eagles, deer, grouse, and of course gulls, guillemots, and ducks. Beautiful sunrises and moonlit seas. The house is at the end of the road in a small village. While there is good wifi in the house, the area has limited cellular coverage. The house was comfortable and cute - but is a 150 year old house, so the rooms are small, the ceilings low, and the floors a little uneven. Nothing is fancy or high end, but all of this provides an authentic Petit da Grat experience. We cooked most evenings and mornings and had everything we needed for simple meals. The area is very interesting. There is a strong Acadian French influence, nice little parks with beaches and lighthouses, and it is still largely a region based on fishing. The small town of Arichat is a ten minute drive and has a grocery store, gas station, pharmacy and a few local restaurants. Check opening days and hours closely as not all are open all the time. We highly recommend Sailor's Rest for those looking for an "off the beaten path" vacation. It was an easy drive from Halifax, which has lots of airline connections. Good options from Sailor's Rest to explore Cape Breton Island. You will not find a more beautiful view and relaxing spot!

The Lakeside Dome is a perfect spot for a quiet getaway. We enjoyed the view of the lake and it was very close to the Dundee resort where we were attending a wedding. A nice retreat.
