St. John's Dream!
I knew I would like the location of this little place but it surpassed my expectations. The cottage sits right on the harbour and has a small balcony and a clear view of Signal Hill and the Narrows, through to the west end of town. It was enjoyable to watch ships, tugs and cruise vessels come and go at all hours. Sunsets over St John's were followed by pretty harbour lights. 2 good-sized bedrooms with nice decor and very comfortable queen beds! Part of the East Coast trail was right outside the door, and you can hike to Quidi Vidi or walk into downtown (1km). It was picturesque, peaceful, accessible, clean, stocked with tea and coffee, and a 1 min walk to the Battery Cafe, and 3 min walk to Zachary's! 20 min drive to Petty Harbour, 30 min to Obrien's Boat trips. I would stay for a month if I could.

Thank You! Wonderful!
We finished our 16 day visit to The Rock with 4 nights in this beautiful location. I could sit and watch the Harbour all day and indeed, we did do alot of watching! Everything was spot on, a definite return to place on our list. Thank you for making this spot a place to rent! Lois

House amazing parking. Yikes
The property was absolute amazing. What the renters need to know is that parking is truck. We were driving a one ton dually truck If we could have been made aware of parking situation ahead of time we could have made other arrangements for a vehicle
