Grand River Cottages (formerly Salmon View Housekeeping Log Cabins)
Overview
Our cottages are situated along the scenic Fleur-de-lis Trail in the peaceful country setting of Grand River on beautiful Cape Breton Island.
While staying at our cottages, enjoy the many nearby activities including fishing, canoeing, swimming, hiking and bird watching. Point Micheaud Beach, just 5 km (3 mi) away, is an exceptional 3-km (2-mi) sandy beach, backed by sand dunes and large cranberry bogs. Take a day trip up the coast to the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site 125 km (78 mi) away, which is a preserved and recreated French fortification of 250 years with impressive walls and majestic gates, homes, gardens and lively taverns and 18th-century cuisine.
Our accommodations include 5 one-bedroom housekeeping cabins (Single, Double) with a sofa-bed, with a 3-piece (shower) or 4-piece bath. Laundry facilities are on site. Pets have to be requested in advance. Visa, MasterCard, and PayPal are accepted.
