I loved everything about this place ! The location is great. A one minute walk to a beautiful beach. Tom was also very accommodating. We were not able to get there by check in time so Tom had the cabin ready for us with self check in instructions. The light was on waiting to welcome us when we arrived. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious “ Pannekoek “ MMMMMMM I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys the great outdoors. Slightly “ roughing it “ but with all the comforts of home.

The hosts were lovely, hospitable, and extremely helpful in mapping out the area. It’s the perfect base camp for local hiking and exploring. The path to the rocky ocean surrounded by lupines is ethereal. We wish we could have stayed more than one night. In addition, the Dancing Moose Cafe is delicious. And they have a super cute cat and some chickens too.

Great place for people doing the Cabot Trail and who want to get out of their comfort zone! Very cute little cabin, in the middle of the woods, 2 minutes away from the ocean, the place is so peaceful! The owner is extremely kind and helpful and the breakfast he prepares are delicious!

Aline

Very unique experience. The owner is very nice and keeps it very clean!

A most beautiful coastal escape. We were welcomed and made to feel at home even after arriving late in the night. Ton offered to make breakfast for us, as well as countless cups of coffee, even though the restaurant was closed (off-season). We felt lucky having the whole place and beach to ourselves. I look forward to planning another adventure with a stay at Zzz Moose as part of it. Cozy cabins, warm heaters, hot water in the bathrooms. Clean, comfortable, magical place to set our bags down for a few nights and revel in the sound of the waves. We ended up extending our stay and extra night :)

This is one of the most beautiful and unique places we’ve ever stayed. Spotlessly clean, very comfortable and a breathtaking property. Even during a very cold, and intensely stormy night the cabin (#3) was cozy and comfortable and we slept like babies listening to the thundering surf. The linens provided seemed brand new and were very comfy, and the cabins smell of cedar which is very soothing! The separate bathroom was spotlessly clean and perfectly adequate, with plentiful hot water, only about 30 ft away. Breakfast at the cafe was delicious - homemade pannekoek! We just loved this place and we’ll definitely be back. Thanks to Ton and his crew for the amazing hospitality!

“Cute cabins in a quiet and lovely setting”
- • Leisure trip

Mattresses are a bit hard. More pillows would be good.
The owner was very welcoming. The cabins are cute and spotlessly clean. Amenities are basic and the "private bathroom" is not attached to the cabin, but we enjoyed our stay very much. The beach is beautiful at sunrise! Our cabin was very private and in a quiet location - much appreciated by someone who has trouble sleeping. You can hear the ocean waves while lying in bed.

“Top notch cabins with very clean private bathroom including standup shower just steps away.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
Cabin was cozy and very clean along with the private bathroom just steps away from our cabin #1. Took the path down to the ocean which was amazing no one else to be seen in either direction while we were walking. Had beautiful rocks there! Took our coffee to go which was great and wished we didn't have to leave so early so we could've enjoyed the breakfast as it smelled so delicious!

Proximity to the ocean. Exciting for the kids having a little cabin and great location on Cabot Trail. Great being next to the cafe for food. Loved that we still Had electricity and Wi-fi and our own private bathroom. A lovely friendly little cat and great owners who communicated and responded to email queries very quickly. Friendly staff.

Everything was awesome. No complaints
Absolutely recommend staying here! We came as a party of six with two dogs and stayed in cabins 1 & 2. Very very clean, adorable cabins The linens were provided to us on our request. The private washroom was cleverly designed and also very comfortable and clean. Would be amazing to come back with kids one day! Very close (2min walk) to the beach, we were able to do a sunset fire which was beautiful. LASTLY, the pannenkoek is a must have! Cannot convey my gratitude to the host in these simple words. Please come stay here and see for yourselves!
