3719 West Big Intervale Road, Margaree Valley

Description

Deep in the hills beside the Margaree River is this gorgeous property, 64 acres spread along two-thirds of a mile of riverside. Surrounded by crown land and protected forest, this seemingly remote property is a mecca for fishers and wilderness adventurers in both summer and winter. The business includes cottages, a bar and restaurant, and the owners residence. Despite the name, and the lure of fly-fishing on this famous salmon river, the business is actually even busier in winter than summer. Snowmobilers come for the trails, the restaurant and the accommodation. Across the river is 1900 acres of the Sugar Loaf Mountain wilderness area, and the handful of private properties in the area are surrounded by 100,000 acres of Crown land stretching all the way to the Cape Breton Highlands national park. And yet the Lodge has the latest in high speed internet: Fibre Op! The lodge building houses the bar - a beautiful octagonal post-and-beam structure - and the restaurant which has a reputation for its gourmet food, also of course the kitchen. Attached is the owners residence, a 3 bedroom home. There area several outbuildings. The Cottages: The three all season rental cottages have had significant upgrades recently. Two of them are full housekeeping units with kitchen facilities, living room and two bedrooms. The third cottage houses two hotel-room units. As is evident in the photos (below) all the cottage rooms are modern and beautifully decorated. The lodge sits on a somewhat elevated spot set back from the river. A long, wide and flat mowed area stretches down river from the lodge and the three cottages - blue, red and yellow - are here. Beyond them in summer are 5 (fun!) golf holes, and the terminating road becomes a walking trail. The property extends way up the steep forested hillside above the river. Come have a meal and walk along the river. Some details follow, more are available at this website: https://www.bigintervale.net
