we didn't get a breakfast, it was not offered. I booked to of the rooms that were 129.00 plus tax coming to 148.00 each. We got rooms that were 109.00 plus tax. We were told there was no breakfast when clearly I booked a BED AND BREAKFAST. instead of getting a refund for the 109.00 room we needed to add 15.00 extra to get the room that I had already paid for. The lady had no idea how to run a businesses. The rooms were clean. I was down for a funeral and spent an hour of my visit arguing with the owner. I was not impressed at all.

After 32 years since my last visit, I was saddened to find that the bustling daily life and historical scenes of my past recollected experience were no longer present (lots of costumed interpreters, horses and carts, auctions, active village programs throughout the day, period meals served in the food purveyor spaces). The life and character of this historical fortress apparently died a COVID death as very few individuals were around to bring to life the settlement in its heyday. Barely any animals to be seen and lots of closed buildings. Our highlight was the bakery and buying fresh bread. Unfortunately a disappointment but hopefully some federal funding can inject new life into this excellent site in the near future.

The Fortress is an amazing Canadian landmark accomplishment,...
The Fortress is an amazing Canadian landmark accomplishment, a historical treasurer! We took 2 tours, the first was a Solider in period dress who shared his life story, and actually shot his rifle to demonstrate. He then escorted us to one of the homes, where we were met by a woman in period dress who shared life in the household and the history of homemade hot chocolate which she had prepared for us. We also booked a private tour; our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing the history of the Louisbourg fortress! Every building we entered had amazing people in period dress, sharing stories of life at that time...this experience is where history truly comes to life. Thank you Canada!

Louisburg is an amazing town with an incredibly rich history. The Heritage House reflects that beautifully with its rooms and hallways and dining areas that reflect our history. The breakfasts were just amazing and in a wonderful setting. We could walk anywhere in the town and easily access delicious food, drinks and beautiful scenery.

We had a great time visiting the Fortress of Louisbourg and exploring some country roads in the area. Staff at the Fortress was very welcoming. It was a great experience learning about what life was like back in the 1700s

As a history lover, the fortress is fascinating.
As a history lover, the fortress is fascinating. The experience is scaled down a bit due to COVID-19 restrictions but still enjoyable seeing the site and interacting with the friendly and knowledgeable costumed guides.
The owner David is absolutely wonderful. Accommodation is cute and was very clean. I assumed that you would hear the other guests in the house as I believe it’s a wood frame but it was surprisingly quiet despite an almost full house. Bed was comfortable, they have blackout blinds, air con in room- I slept well. I’m not really a breakfast person but I would say- Don’t miss the breakfast here, it was delicious!
The room was cozy, self-contained, very clean, convenient for walking, the large fridge and freezer was perfect for our snacks and for keeping our ice packs frozen. It was very fitting for the purpose of our trip which was to spend a full day at the Louisburg Fortress. The kitchen facilities were excellent, we had tea and popcorn and the wine glasses were ideal for our drinks by the fireplace.
Loved the location of this BNB, off the beaten path but not far from Louisbourg. Lovely views as the home is lakeside. The host was welcoming, friendly, and had good recommendations for restaurants nearby . Great breakfast. Private room was lovely. Would definitely recommend this accommodation.
We did not have breakfast in the restaurant but the dinner at The Bothy was wonderful. Food, service and surroundings were lovely. The rooms are lovely and very comfortable and the convenience of a small kitchenette is great. Above all, the gorgeous view is what truly took my breath away.
I was a little confused about whether I had booked the old Point of View or the newly refurbished North Star. It was indeed North Stat and didn’t disappoint! Great location & views, great bar area, little gift shop and lovely accommodation. If you come to louisbourg, eat &/or stay here!
This is a lovely place to stay. It was so quiet and comfortable and beautifully decorated. Breakfast was delicious both mornings we were there. Our host was exceptional and helpful about places to eat. We would certainly stay there again!
Extremely convenient to Fortress Louisbourg, the main attraction. The kitchenette is key since Louisbourg has few restaurants/businesses left open. Definitely pack-in & cook your own food.
Room was clean, bed was comfortable, newer mattress, larger mini-fridge than is common, property was quiet. Check-in was a breeze. For this price we were very happy with what we received.
The room, the view, the beach access, the restaurant on premises, the staff, the celebrity owners and the fog. Also the close proximity to the fortress.
Awesome location close to the fortress. Unique character house with spacious room and exterior door without having to go through the rest of the house!
