St. Joseph-Du-Moine House | Cozy Oceanfront Cabot Trail Cottage w/Cape Breton's Best View

4 Bedroom House in St. Joseph-Du-Moine, St Joseph du Moine

Welcome to Copper Cliff Cottage! Enjoy rustic maritime charm and contemporary amenities, not to mention coastal views that will take your breath away. The original house was built around 1900 and thoroughly renovated over the past few years to give it all the creature comforts you'll want while vacationing on the island.
A kitchen with new stainless KitchenAid appliances is well-equipped to meet the needs of a decerning chef. Stocked with All-Clad pans, chef knives, locally made Larch Wood cutting board, and a wide range of kitchen accessories, you'll have no problems cooking up delicious meals. Enjoy fresh coffee from the French Press, drip machine, or Keurig while taking in the ocean view from the window above the sink. For the coffee connoisseurs who prefer whole beans, a Baratza Encore grinder is provided. Off the kitchen is the side deck that features a picnic table and a new Weber Genesis propane grill (propane included). If you're fortunate to get some local snow crabs or lobsters, we've included an extra large pot for boiling and steaming.
The open dining and living room gives you ample space to spread out. The living room has six windows with expansive ocean views and features a 32" Roku smart TV and a Sonos sound bar for streaming your favorite music. Off the living room is a full bath with a compact washer and dryer (detergent included). The living room also has access to the large 16m (50') deck where you're sure to spend many relaxing hours enjoying the coastal views and breathtaking sunsets. It's not uncommon to see colorful fishing boats and breaching whales, so we've included Bushnell 10x42mm binoculars to help you get a closer look.
Also on the first floor is the new master bedroom with an en suite bathroom, king-size bed, air conditioning, and comfortable sitting area. The master bedroom is large, with ocean views, a 43" Roku smart TV, and its own deck access.
On the second floor, you'll find three additional bedrooms, a half bath, and a delightful reading nook. The upstairs bedrooms all feature new knotty pine walls and ceilings, accentuating the cozy cottage feel.
Two bedrooms feature small desks and chairs, perfect for visits that require remote work. The property is served by ultra-fast 200+ Mbps fiber internet and features a wireless mesh network for excellent Wi-Fi coverage throughout. Cell phone coverage is also good throughout the house and property.
The house has a ductless split air conditioning system with three units: one in the open kitchen/dining/living area, one in the first-floor master king suite, and one in the second-floor queen bedroom.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome (the limit is 2, and kindly keep them off all furniture), and there are plenty of grounds for them to roam near the house and some great hiking routes at the entrance of Cape Breton Highlands National Park, just 18km away.
If you have any questions about the house or area, please don't hesitate to reach out. We look forward to welcoming you to Copper Cliff Cottage!

Summary: I have no complaints. I instantly felt at home when I walked into the cottage, and I didn't want to leave. The hosts are super responsive and kind. The home is well insulated and beautiful. And the location and scenery are jaw droppingly gorgeous, serene and awe-inspiring. Thank you for sharing this piece of heaven wit Cape Breton Visitors and their doggy companions!

Summary: This house is worth the drive from Halifax simply for the unbelievable view! A short walk down a path takes you onto the bluff overlooking the ocean where you will find 4 chairs. You can see ocean and land for miles and lots of lobster traps! We spent so much time sitting and marveling at the view. The house is great with a large open floor plan on the ground floor with plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen has everything you need! Bedrooms upstairs have plenty of room to sleep 7. The master and 3rd bedroom were very spacious and the 2nd bedroom would be a little tight unless you unpack your suitcase. All very comfortable though and so quiet!! The outside has a wrap around porch with so much space to enjoy the views. There's also a brand new grill and a fire pit which were a big plus! Cheticamp is 10-15 min drive where you can find the Coop stores for all provisions and a few places to eat. Paul was an absolute delight. He left us a ton of information at our arrival and a lovely welcome basket that included fruit, snacks and wine (wine will always win me over!). Paul also was able to help us contact a guide for fly fishing, which we absolutely recommend. Final words: you will LOVE this house and our group cannot wait to visit again! Thank you Paul for your beautiful home and hospitality!

Summary: We are soooooo happy to have selected this spot for our stay on Cape Breton! The house is wonderful --- it is EXACTLY as pictured, with multiple decks, open plan kitchen-dining-living room, comfortable and cozy bedrooms upstairs. The views from the property are absolutely spectacular, even better than the pictures show. I still regularly find myself picturing those views of the Gulf of St. Lawrence --- amazing. The house is in a nicely private location just off the Cabot Trail. The kitchen has everything that you can possibly need. I fell in love with a wood block cutting board that they had, only to find that the factory outlet that sells them is just down the road. What luck for me! The location is perfect for exploring the region --- we went on a different hike every day. The owner, Paul, was very helpful and responsive. Short drive to restaurants in Cheticamp, but see below... P.S. Be sure to make at LEAST one dinner of the homemade, traditional meat pie+gravy available from Geraldine AuCoin a couple of houses up the road. Look for the "meat pies" sign.

Summary: We stayed at the LeBlanc's home for five nights during our first (not to be last) visit to Cape Breton. The house is very clean, cozy and well equipped, and all of the information we needed to know about it, and some of the local restaurants and attractions, was waiting for us when we arrived. We particularly enjoyed the amazing view of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and sunsets over it, from both the front porch and the "water-side" sitting area. The house's location on the island is excellent, with close and easy access to the National Park, Inverness Beach, and a number of lovely little towns. We did some beautiful hikes in the park, went whale watching (Captain Mark's Whale Watching was great!), and my husband and his friend golfed at Cabot Cliffs while I enjoyed Inverness Beach. A visit to Les Trois Pignons, as recommended by the LeBlanc's in their welcome package, is also very worthwhile and we enjoyed a relaxed and delicious dinner at the All Aboard Restaurant in Cheticamp. Lunch at The Dancing Goat is also a must if you have the time and opportunity! The entire island is lovely, and the drive through the park on the Cabot Trail is spectacular, however, after touring around, we felt that we were staying in THE best place and we wouldn't hesitate to return to the LeBlanc's :)

Summary: This beautiful home is the perfect place to spend a relaxing vacation. The scenery is magnificent, and the house itself is full of charm and personality. The owners have thought of everything! Paul is very pleasant to deal with, and the entire process was very easy. Look no further! This is the place. We hope to return. Thank you, Paul!

Summary: The LeBlanc's home is well equipped with everything needed for a visit to Cape Breton Island and exploring the Cabot Trail. My husband and I spent four days at the home for our honeymoon trip to Nova Scotia. We were welcomed with a gift basket and congratulatory flowers, and full instructions about the house and suggested places to sightsee, shop, and dine. The home is on a little bluff overlooking the water. We spent mornings having coffee by the water and in the evening shared a glass of wine and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. There is a fully-equipped kitchen, a small pellet fireplace, an outdoor firepit and grill, and outdoor seating for at least 5-7 people, comfortably. The 3 bedrooms could easily have 2 people each. The home is also very close (15 min.) to Cheticamp (dining, shopping, whale watching, and entrance to Cape Breton National Park) heading north and Margaree (15 min) to the south. We would stay here again in a heartbeat, and plan to when we return to Cape Breton Island someday! Thanks so much to the LeBlancs for making our trip so comfortable.

Summary: We absolutely loved the location of this home. The views are fantastic. So relaxing to sit and watch the sunset each evening. While making our reservation I happened to mention in passing that it was a special trip for our anniversary. We were surprised by, and truly appreciated, the thoughtfulness of the owner in leaving a beautiful bouquet of flowers and anniversary wishes to welcome us. We chose to experience the local cuisine by eating at the various restaurants in the area so we did not actually cook in the home but the kitchen seemed to be well equipped with everything needed to be able to make your own meals with ease, for both indoor cooking or outdoor barbecuing. The area is quiet but not isolated. The home is exactly as pictured in the photos. It is clean and well maintained. It's a very good location if you're planning on doing the Cabot trail or day trips around Cape Breton. Grocery stores and restaurants are just a short 10-15 min drive away in Cheticamp. We highly recommend the Harbour and All Aboard restaurants. As well, it's an easy drive over to Baddeck (our favourite shop there was Our Seaside Home Decor - a nautically themed decor shop in the old post office building there). If you're looking for a cottage with a "Cape Breton feel" and love sunsets this is the place to stay.

Summary: If your plan is to enjoy Cape Breton Highlands National Park this Cottage is the perfect location. With incredible sunsets and an open fire the nights were memorable. The cottage is quite comfortable and well equipped. As we tend to travel a bit offseason the indoor fire place was a treasure each evening. Mr. LeBlanc's advise to drive up Rte. 19 was most appreciated as the towns were quaint and the autumn colors were spectacular. We drove throughout Cape Breton and both agreed that this cottage was a perfect home base. If you have the opportunity to drive to Baddeck and dine at the Bite House I would highly recommend but you must make reservations months in advance. A most enjoyable autumn trip with hiking in the park and enjoying the evenings cooking in the outdoor fire pit with the spectacular sunsets at this oceanfront cottage.
