Excellent stay
The location on a bluff overlooking the water was superb. The cottage was clean and well-equipped. The caretakers were friendly and helpful in any situation. The owner checked in on us many times during our time there. The stars on a clear night were amazing. I plan to stay there again in the future.

Another Great Stay
Our fourth year here and it does not disappoint! Beach is beautiful and and easy access to day trips to PEI or Cape Breton is the weather is not cooperating. Jacqueline had the place spotless for our arrival and JB the caretaker and his life partner Kate are true gems! Highly recommend this location!

So relaxing
Stunning views both sunrise and sunset and everywhere in between. The cottage was completely functional, had great breeze off the water and cozy. We had everything we needed for a wonderful vacation. Initially we booked for one week and jumped at the chance for the second week! 14 days was not enough time to relax and unwind and take in the breeze off the water! Wonderful spot!

Experience
It was extremely clean and well-kept. The view was absolutely beautiful morning and night. We enjoyed it so much we often to stay for a second week. Despite how warm the weather was, there was a beautiful breeze most days. Beach was completely quiet every day and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Second time was as good as the first!
This was a return visit and like the first time, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at " Beach Front Cottage". We have family in the area so the location was perfect for visiting and catching up. From the front window you can watch the fishermen bring in their catch early in the morning, enjoy visits from the local deer population, or just watch the water coming into shore, the view is spectacular. The cottage is well supplied with everything you will need. Arrive, unpack, sit back and enjoy!

An Unforgettable Holiday at Black Point
Dickens wrote ‘It was the best of times, it was the worst of times’. Storm Fiona hit Black Point hard and yet we had a most memorable holiday; in fact we extended our stay by five days. In the face of adversity, the people of Nova Scotia opened up their hearts and helped each other in every possible way. We were privileged to be a part of all that went on. In spite of Fiona, clearly Black Point is a wonderful place to spend a quiet, relaxing holiday. The cottage kitchen is equipped with every utensil known to man, and there is plenty of room for lying around reading, playing games, or simply sitting and looking out to sea. A perfect place to unwind from the hustle and bustle of the city. The host and property managers were really attentive and thoughtful, fresh flowers on the dining table, freshly baked muffins and scones…. What more could you need! Black Point has a very interesting history, some cottages are 100-plus years old and remain family owned. It is a close, caring community, and we met some very friendly and interesting people. It is also perfectly positioned to explore Nova Scotia, East, West or South. We will be recommending this property to friends and family as a perfect get-away.
