Lawrence and Joanne C.
May 2023Beautiful, just as described.
Really lovely home, in a very quaint quiet little town. The home is very well equipped, and comfortable. May is a very cold and windy time in NF though, so we hope to return another year in July or August to enjoy the outdoor facilities. There are a lot of places to visit with the home as a jumping off point. Homeowner was very kind and easy to communicate with. ”

July 2022Family trip to Brigus & St John’s Newfoundland
This home is spotless, modern, comfortable, and idyllic for anyone wanting a quiet seaside escape with a view. No sandy beaches, but rather a classic fishing village on the North Atlantic, very close to the oldest English settlement in Canada (1610). Easy day trip to St John’s (1 hr away), easy drives along the beautiful coast, with some significant WWII history sites. Whale and Puffin watching boat trip was a highlight (no icebergs during our stay, though). Owner is great to work with.”
