Cozy cottage or guest house next to walking trails and golf course.
We call this property Salt. It was built as a guest house to accompany Pepper next door. It has two rooms with a full kitchen with dining and living spaces. Spend your day relaxing on the deck overlooking the pond or get busy on the walking trails at your doorstep. There is a community swimming area just a few short steps away so there is almost always someone for the kids to play with. Walk along the beach and have a fire and take in the stunning views of Shag Rock at sunset. There is so much to see and do but be sure to shop at Drovers store next door will you will find everything from milk and eggs to rubber boots and knitting needles.

The Salt to our Pepper
We stayed at the adjacent property ( the Pepper) while my mother and my son took up accommodation in the Salt cottage. We will be forever grateful to have been able to rent bith properties to have a group family vacation that will be remembered for years to come. The view from the back deck will have you relaxed and wanting to return again and again to relish the sunrise with a cup of coffee and fresh local bread and jam. Ches was wonderful to deal with from the queries about the booking process right through the day we left. Take advantage of this gem of a spot if you ever get a chance!

One could not ask for more from a rental property. A lovely cottage with a superb location. Less than a minute walk to swimming in a fresh water lake. Two minute walk to a scenic beach on the ocean. Historic property next door dating back to settlers who came there in the 19th century. Convenience store less than 500 metres down the road. I have rented VRBO properties for twenty years or more now, and this was certainly one of the best.

The Salt House was great
Overall great property to stay at. Close enough to Dildo and the brewery but still out enough to have a quiet evening overlooking the pond. The only thing that went wrong was there wasn’t any body-wash/shampoo/conditioner. There’s a little shop right around the corner but it was closed by the time we got back from supper and the brewery. I’d definitely stay again though.

Beautiful property!
Very beautiful property and well equipped for a comfortable stay. Lovely view of the water from the back deck and very convenient with two dogs since the back yard was entirely fenced off. Highly recommended! I may suggest offering tea bags and kettle on site would have been appreciated.

We stayed one week and really enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect to visit between St-John and Bonavista. We had access to a small public swimming area for the pond right next to the house and the view of the ocean at no more than a 2-3 minute walk. We enjoyed a morning jog around the pond. The view from the house was perfect, the house was fully equipped with all that we needed and very clean, everything seemed new. We found a seafood and meat store within a 10 minute drive and went cod fishing as well. The location was very quiet. Loved our stay.

Girls weekend in Whitway
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Ches’s property in Whiteway. We were looking for a place that was comfortable enough for us to just hang out with each other for the weekend and Salt checks all the boxes. The tranquility of just sitting on the back porch with the fire lit is unmatched. The house is thoughtfully decorated, and has everything you would need for a weekend stay. Drover’s is a quick walk down the road, and has anything you could possibly think of. Ches is a great host and is quick to respond the any questions or concerns. You will not be disappointed with a stay at Salt!

Amazing Experience
From the moment we arrived we felt like it was our home away from home. The decor was bright, spacious, stunning and everything was new, modern and spotless. The owners arranged to have locally owned bread and jam left for us. YomYom. We enjoyed all the amenities..... the covered veranda and fireplace alongside the pond was well used by us this weekend. We watched moose walk across the edge of the pond and later swim the whole width of the pond. We enjoyed the walking trail around the pond, ending up at Drover's Store, which was an experience in itself. If you forget to bring something....they will surely have it.! The beach access for the kayaks was very convenient. We even tried our hand at fly fishing off the edge of the property as well. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and pots/pans and we also made use of the BBQ a few times. We enjoyed roaming the beaches for beach glass and heart shaped rocks. We were so busy during the day we couldn't seem to get past 10pm each evening. The beds were super comfy and sleep came very quickly! Can't wait to do it all again!

Stunning home and property in the perfect location!
We couldn’t have asked for a better VRBO! The house is immaculate and perfectly designed. It sits on a gorgeous property where you can watch the sun rise over the backing pond and surrounding forests. It’s steps from a peaceful walking trail and a beach with views of Shag Rock and incredible sunsets. It’s within an hour radius of a handful of charming sea-side towns and within great proximity of St John’s.
The hosts were incredibly accommodating! Our car broke down an hour from the property and Ches was on the phone with us helping us find a solution and even arranging for someone to come by to help us out. When we needed to extend our stay to get the car fixed, he was very communicative and helped to accommodate our longer stay.
We are traveling with dogs and there were dog beds and water dishes set out when we arrived. A very special and thoughtful touch!
We can’t imagine ever staying anywhere else in Newfoundland.
