"What a find! We stayed at cottage #10 - very clean and comfortable. Great big deck overlooking the dunes, Port Hood Island and the sea - and sunsets. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Beautiful sandy beach a 5 min. walk from cottage - swimmable, weather permitting. We would definitely stay there again if we come back to NS. The free Wi-Fi worked great, to our teenager's delight. Room Tip: All cottages face the sea."

"We have stayed at Lighthouse Cottages on multiple occasions, while attending the Celtic Colours International Music Festival. The accommodations are well equipped and clean and the staff couldn't be more friendly and helpful. The cottages are located right on water with a sandy beach and the sunsets can be spectacular. We can highly recommend Lighthouse Cottages for your stay in Nova Scotia."

"We stayed at Lighthouse Cottages for 3 nights and enjoyed our stay very much. The cottages were clean and comfortable, the picnic table and outside chairs were a nice touch too! The beach at our finger tips and the incredible sunsets set the backdrop for the view from the cottages. Porthood and Mabou were a short drive away where there were grocery stores, shops and restaurants. I would highly recommend this place. The lady's working there were friendly and helpful. Thanks to Colin (the owner) for being so accommodating :-)"

"Our most recent visit to the Cape Breton was for Celtic Colours,and the Lighthouse Cottages are the ideal central location for much of the entertainment in the area. We look forward to staying at the Lighthouse as you can depend on them on being clean,well equipped with all the essentials,service is first class, beautiful waterfront location. Looking forward to visiting Cape Breton next year and staying at the Lighthouse Cottages. Would highly recommend them to anyone travelling in the area."

"My friend and I went on what started out to be a day trip that turned into a two day stay at the beautiful Lighthouse Cottages.This was September 27, 2009 and the weather could not have been more beautiful for that time of year. My friend had stayed here previously and wanted to show me the area and once we arrived we knew we wanted to stay at least one night. The cabin was well kept and the kitchenette well stocked, a cozy rocking chair by the large picture window to sit in and watch the sun go down over the ocean and watch it come up in the morning. Since we had not planned on an overnight stay, we didn't have much in the line of food with us. The lady in the office was very kind and gave us a packet of coffee and some milk and we picked up some breakfast items at the nearby Co-op. We went for a stroll along the beautiful white sand beach and came back over the boardwalk and took in the beautiful sunset. There's a picnic table and wooden lawn chair outside every cabin to sit out and enjoy the scenery. I have not one negative thing to say about these cabins and I'd recommend them to everyone I know."
