Knotty Pine Lodge is an open concept beautiful and spacious retreat offering both privacy and luxury amenities. Located on the Cabot Trial, nearing hiking trails, golf clubs, beaches, kayaking, paddle boarding, whale watching, snowmobile trails and the "MUST VISIT" Cape Breton Highlands National Park. The solid wood lodge sits on a large private wooded lot that features a 1300 ft driveway, manicured lawn, spectacular panoramic mountain & ocean views and uncompromised star-gazing at night.
Our family had an amazing vacation in Nova Scotia and some of our fondest memories were made at this house. The house was immaculate and the location was spectacular. Weâll never forget the sunset dinners on the deck and being greeted by seals each morning as we had coffee on the rocks.
Our kids will remember this place forever - it's wood, wood, and more wood, very private, and absolutely feels like you're somewhere special. Groceries and the national park are quite close, so it was a GREAT location. The listing said it was 3 bedrooms, but it may matter to the next guest that there is only 1 bedroom that has a door - the rest are in an open air loft area such that you can peek down to the kitchen (and everyone can talk to everyone else while in bed). Oodles of kitchen gadgets that made our stay more fun - be sure to get a primer on how to use the stove and oven from the property manager ahead of time so your cooking plans aren't slowed down. As a person who loves to cook, this was a dreamy place to stay for a while.
TIP: If you're picky about pillows, bring your own, as the ones provided are thick and hard, like the beds.
