Summary: We were blessed to snap up a last minute cancelation at Whale of a View cottage. It was our first time staying on Campobello and we were not disappointed. While the cabin hasnt been updated recently it is clean and comfortable. The kids loved the bunkbeds, tire swing and hammock. We all enjoyed the screened porched and smores around the fire pit. Even though it was cool my wife enjoyed the quiet solitude of the Eagles Nest gazebo for morning devotions. We had two separate whale sightings and the kids loved watching the boat traffic. Dennis checked on us briefly upon our arrival and I had a great chat before we left. We will be back at some point and will definitely reccomend to others.

Summary: We loved this quaint cabin setting right on the water on Campobello Island. The owner was so easy to work with and the description on VRBO was spot on. The cabin was spotless and stocked very well with the basics we needed. If ever in the area again we will definitely stay at Wilson Beach!!

Summary: Once again Campobello Island did not disappoint! We have been here several times now and love it, especially the Whale of a View cottage! It is the perfect getaway for us - beautiful evenings on the deck, mornings too! It is our happy place, we simply love it there :) Dennis and Margaret are wonderful hosts.

Summary: This place is lovely, and it more that lives up to the name Whale of a View. If you’re looking for a peaceful quiet getaway, look no further. The screened porch (a rarity in the area for some reason) really extends the living space and was where we spent much of our time and where we are all of our meals. We had perfect weather and saw so many whales. The bed was super comfortable, the water piping hot, and having laundry machines was a great plus for our three week stay. We’d definitely stay here again.

Summary: Lovely cottage. It had a very comfy and relaxing feeling to it- and had a sense it belonged to the island. The screened deck/room was perfect as was the outer deck. The views were as displayed and expressed - though even better. Perfect location on the island. I would recommend.

Summary: This property is definitely a little slice of heaven. The 3 bedroom house is beautifully furnished but we spent very little time inside! The new addition of the deck was an exciting surprise. Sit on the deck, screened in porch, gazebo or in front of the fire - Beautiful views from every vantage point to watch for whale, seals, eagles and watch the lobster boats pickup their daily catch. Cook meals yourself or enjoy one of the wonderful restaurants close by. Beaches, hiking, relaxing - this location can not be beat!

Summary: What can we say? Or four days at whale of a view we're absolutely PERFECT for us. We needed a place to de-stress and regroup and whale of a view didn't disappoint at all! What you see is what you get with the view.... what they don't tell you is there are 4 bald eagles that live two doors down who like to display their artisan skills frequently. We saw an ospray, a heron, various hawks and other birds. We also got photo evidence of a seals nose... though we didn't see the rest of him. A real bonus for us was the ferry service was extended through October so we got to explore Deer Island... complete with deer sightings and we had lunch on the waterfront in St. Andrews. Overall, just what we needed... when we needed it. Enjoy! Darrell in Utah, Usa

Summary: We spent two nights at Whale of a View cottage and loved it. The views from the deck and screened in porch (and the master bedroom!) were spectacular. We didn't feel like we had to go anywhere - loved sitting outside watching for whales and boats going by. The cottage is clean and cozy, and full of interesting vintage prints and books about the area. Dennis our host was very friendly. Would definitely return.
