Summary: Our stay at Skipper times vacation home was absolutely amazing! From the easy check-in to the clean and well stock kitchen, from the awesome views to the thoughtful special touches, such as lots of books to read, a TV and each bedroom, the soaker tub! I can't say enough about it! They even had a landline which could be a selling feature for this home! Cell phone service is very limited. However, having the landline made communication much better! This place comes highly recommended!

Summary: We had a lovely stay at Skipper Tom’s. The house was very clean and comfortable. The freshly baked muffins that were there when we arrived were a nice treat! We also appreciated having coffee provided for the week as well. No complaints whatsoever. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone vacationing in Twillingate.

Summary: The property was clean, fresh, and comfortable. The homemade muffins were a nice touch too. Marie was very quick to help when google maps took us to the wrong house. It was also nice to be so close to the dinner theatre. Thanks Marie!

Summary: The accommodation of Skipper Tom’s is as described, and delightful - and right up until our check out morning - our stay was entirely pleasant (be aware of doors however, when a visiting cat drops by, apparently it likes to visit!).Skipper Tom’s location is recommended as a base to explore Twillingate. The house is well-appointed with all you would need (with the exception of kitchen scissors!), the rooms are spacious and comfortable and pretty. The 2 ensuites are a true plus. On check out day - the 10am check out time was a bit of an affront to start with, but respecting that was the limit, we planned the morning to be sure we were out on time. And to that end, did all our packing and fridge cleaning and garbage collection so that at 9:30, we could have our morning coffee on the porch taking in the lovely view of the ocean before we parted. Instead, when we walked out to deposit the garage at 9:30 - we found the cleaner sitting in the parking spot waiting for us to leave.Some might have ignored that, but we good not now, sit and relax with our while being in the sight line of someone in a car. It was a very disappointing end to an otherwise lovely stay.

Summary: Absolutely loved this property. It is in a great location with a beautiful view of the water. Each of the 2 large bedrooms has an ensuite which was great. The wrap around deck was nice and a lively place to enjoy your breakfast on a Sunday morning. I wish we were there for more than just 2 nights.

Summary: Large quiet property with a well equipped kitchen. Two large bedrooms with en-suite baths and excellent hot showers. We had two really good nights sleeping on a fantastic mattress. We appreciated the washer /dryer and laundry soap after a week of travel. We walked to the dinner theatre and drove to the Anchor Inn pub to get screeched in. Great fun on a zodiac to see an iceberg calve and turn over!

Summary: Not much needs to be said about Skipper Tom’s because it was just so fantastic. The house is gorgeous and we especially liked the lovely and very comfortable living room. The kitchen was perfectly equipped and well laid out, and the large bedrooms were excellent in all regards, including the spacious ensuites. The wrap-around patio was a bonus feature that you never see. And the location was amazing, right on the water and walking distance to the dinner theatre, restaurants and pubs. This was the first true out of ten that we’ve ever stayed in.
