Wreck Cove Wilderness Cabins

I can’t say enough great things about this adorable cabin rental!! From the start, Jay was an incredibly thoughtful and attentive host, sending us local recommendations, sharing weather updates ahead of time, and even starting the wood stove before we arrived. She was also super responsive throughout our entire stay. The cabin itself was spotless and had plenty of space for two couples. The board games were a great touch, and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook full dinners with ease. Not to mention, the location is absolutely stunning! right at the start of several hiking trails and only a short drive to Cape Smokey, it was perfect for our ski trip. 😄 We loved every part of our stay and would return in a heartbeat. Thanks again, Jay! 🥰

The online booking process for Wreck Cove Wilderness Cabins is quick and easy! The owner, Jay, is wonderful to communicate with, and provides detailed information to ensure guests are prepared for check-in, in advance of arrival. Jay’s warm hospitality exceeds expectations and makes for a very positive and memorable experience. The property is easy to find and is truly beautiful to explore. The cabin that we stayed in, Mountainside, is in excellent shape, is very clean and tidy, and is generously stocked with everything you’d need - it was the perfect home away from home. T’was a delightful blend of ‘cozy country cottage’ meets ‘modern chic cabin’. Jay is very considerate of the needs of pets (in our case, a dog) - our pup had a wonderful time, too! Whether you’re looking to relax by the crackling warmth of the wood stove — or watch something on the television (with Prime subscription!) — or if you’re looking to get a bit more adventurous and explore the beautiful property trails, Wreck Cove Wilderness Cabins is sure to tick every box. Beds and sofas are cozy. Exceptional value for the price. You simply must add Wreck Cove Wilderness Cabins to your bucket list - and then rebook often!! A huge thank you to Jay! We will certainly be back. PS- Remember to bring your own coffee beans. (Tea is provided!)

We have been coming to Wreck Cove Wilderness Cabins now for 5 years with friends. It’s our favourite Winter get away in Cape Breton due to proximity to Ingonish, Baddeck and on site trails. The owner Jay always adds additional personal touches each year to the cabins and feels like you are at home. Cabins are so cozy, and the wood stove just adds to the warmth. Thank you again Hay for a great visit and we will see you again next year!!

Amazing little campground/cabins! We stayed at the tent site during a bicycle tour of the Cabot Trail and it was just perfect for us. Hearing the waves crash from our campsite was so peaceful. Jay is super kind and gave us some great tips when we needed to reroute a portion of our trip. And the decor on the inside of the privy is absolutely fantastic.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Wreck Cove Wilderness Cabins! Our cabin (one of 3) was cozy, beautiful and so peaceful! The bed was amazingly comfortable and the kitchenette had everything we needed for our breakfasts. We love to camp so we are used to walking to a bathhouse or an outhouse so that was just part of the charm and we knew it was part of the experience. Honestly, the outhouse was less than a minute walk down the path and adorably decorated to boot!||During our visit, important restrictions were put in place to protect the woodlands during the current drought so we were, understandably, not able to use the trails on the property but we were able to walk into a clearing by the ocean to watch the sunrise and it was beyond breathtaking both mornings. ||Finally, I have to end with the customer service which was exceptional. From the moment I wrote to Jay to book the Moose & Merlin Cabin, she was so responsive, thoroughly informative and warm. When the hiking trails closed and the restrictions went into place, she made excellent suggestions for activities we could do in place of hiking such as tubing the Margaree River which was lots of fun! She kept us informed of the guidelines and truly made the experience of ‘glamping’ in Wreck Cove one we will never forget!

Our favourite place to stay along the Cabot Trail! We have stayed here as a family in every season and have loved it every time. So cozy in the winter by the wood fire stove. There are snowshoeing trails right outside your door. A great landing spot for any summer time adventure as well. Walking the numerous trail routes on the property was a highlight. Be sure to head out to the clearing to get a spectacular cliff-side view of the ocean! Stargazing from our porch to the soundtrack of the crashing waves was such a treat. The cabins are equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Jay is a top-notch host and has thought of everything! We also appreciated the pet basket which included a fitted sheet to cover the couch so our pup could get cozy, and a designated pet towel to wipe his muddy paws after his adventures. The cabins are always so clean. They are thoughtfully decorated with lots of personal touches. We love it here and plan to stay again the next chance we get!

Jay’s wreck cove wilderness cabins provided a unique experience! She made us feel welcomed and was always there to help if needed. Many locals had wonderful things to say about Jay. We loved our stay here. The cozy cabin and trails with breathtaking ocean views. The moose and merlin will be a place we will always remember from our time visiting Cape Breton. Hope to be back one day. If you are looking for a quiet minimal getaway with nature right out your door, this is for you.

I was on a motorcycle camping trip from Philadelphia to Nova Scotia and called Jay from a listing I saw on google. This place is phenomenal. The cabins they have are ultra Lux tiny cabins but the whole environment on the Walking pads, cabins and campsites, and the cliff overlooking the ocean is amazing. Jay was great and I was so glad to find this spot at short notice on my trip. Thank you jay!
