    Welcoming, well stocked, comfortable and a fabulous breakfast!

    The cabin, though rustic looking on the outside, was extremely comfortable. Having a central facility for kitchen prep and a private bathroom (although in a central, separate building), didn’t immediately appeal to me, but it was no problem at all! Everything was well stocked and easily accessible. Being able to order a linen package (I was flying from Vancouver and didn’t pack my own towels/bedding) was great and they perfect. I woke early and captured a sunrise on the beach, just a short walk from the cabin, and it was glorious! Also glorious: the breakfast beautifully prepared by the host, Ton. I highly recommend adding this on for anyone staying here. So delicious! It was a perfect stay!

    Unfortunately the restaurant was closed (except for breakfast)..limited food options in then locality...so we had to drive to get dinner. Would have been helpful if Web site had told us the restaurant was closed . Although beach was nice, not possible to swim there.

    Very spacious cabin. Cooking facilities on hand . Proximity to the ocean . Individualised toilets/showers

    I liked how each cabin had a dedicated bathroom, small mini fridge, and picnic table. The cabin was clean and had a mosquito net if we wanted to leave the sliding door open. Two nice chairs and a drying rack were conveniently placed on the deck of the cabin. It was close to a beautiful rock beach and the cafe had the best yogurt and granola cups and coffee for the morning!

    Overall it was great. The bathrooms are basic, but for a glamping type experience much better than expected

    The cabins were well set up and the beds comfortable. We appreciated that fans were available as the night was warm. We had a great view of the ocean and the stars. Breakfast was amazing at the Dancing Moose

    The only minor issue was the sound of the bed frames on the second floor. They squeaked whenever we moved, which was a bit bothersome. However, it wasn’t a significant problem because we were so tired that none of us were overly affected by the noise. That said, I am quite sensitive to sounds, so I would have preferred it to be quieter. Still, all the wonderful aspects of the charming little wooden cabin more than made up for the squeaky bed frames.

    The host provides delicious breakfast with great care and charges a very reasonable price. I appreciate the simplicity and the view from the breakfast room, which gives our family a warm, homely feeling. We all love the Nordic style, and the host went out of his way to respond to my requests and questions promptly. I am truly grateful and very happy with our stay! The location of the zzzzzMoose is excellent. I was also extremely pleased to have such a nice, neat, and clean place to spend the nights in an all-wood cabin. The window on the second floor offers a perfect view of the sea, making it an ideal spot for a family stay. We spent two nights in the cabin, and I honestly wish we could have stayed longer.

    If I was to nitpick, the bathroom isn't didn't in the cottage but was so close that it may well have been. There aren't any restaurants near by and they do close very early. There is a little kitchen you can use and each cabin is given their own mini fridge so you can make you own food there.

    The cottage was very clean and cozy. It was quiet and lovely. The bed was very comfortable and we could use the sheets and bedding for a very low price which saved us the hassle of getting ours out. Ton, the owner was very friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome.

    The facilities could have been better. I felt there is too much space for sleep and nothing else. There is enough bed for 6 persons (2 double beds and 2 single beds) but the bathroom is not attached. Bathroom is located outside.

    The ambience was good. The property is aesthetically awesome.

    Not at all the fault of the property but food access for the evening is limited and closes early so you should definitely eat before you get there if you get there if you are due to arrive in evening. You could cook over campfire but you would need the food.

    Very clean and the host is a wonderful chef!! While breakfast is not included it is available and definitely worth it. Convenient for stop after Cabot Trail- our Cabin had an ocean view if you slept in the loft. Not a problem and you can get towels and they supply soap... but the private bath is detached so be sure you are prepared. Bathrooms were very clean.

    Nothing - everything was fantastic!

    The hut was nestled in the trees, very clean and comfortable. The linen Ton provided was really soft and we had a great night's sleep. We were only there for one night but we made the most of the firewood and had a fire and watched the stars. Breakfast at the Dancing Moose cafe was very good too!

    Accommodation was probably not what we expected due to booking.com review. We wouldn’t do it again, however it was a different experience. 4 Adults sharing the premises was probably not ideal.

    Please note that you have to get a separate linen package or bring your on sleeping bag. I misunderstood that the booking includes breakfast. It does not. The washroom, though dedicated to the room, is outside. There is no provision for tea or coffee in the room, though you can borrow a kettle. The nearest restaurant is about 12 km away and it closes at 7:00. Best to have your supper before you head to this place.

    On the Cabot trail. Close to water. Friendly owner.
