Brilliant old house, in great condition. The yrd wants some love though. I'd be happy to rebuild the stone walls.

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.
Very conveniently located on route to Fortress of Louisbourg, which is what we had come to see.
The room was clean and comfortable, for a really good price.
The staff were excellent. Bal quickly solved a couple of problems we had with the TVs., and she is such a pleasant and helpful person. So is Glenda with breakfast in the morning. In fact, the breakfast was a pleasant surprise because our booking confirmation said there was no meal with the room. Thanks!!
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.
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!
Charming restored heritage home with comfortable rooms, period finishes, updated bathrooms and great location. Appreciated self check-in. Excellent breakfast, and they were able to accommodate a gluten-free request with ease.
The location was awesome. The place was more than comfortable and extremely clean. Only met the gentleman that owns it, he was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay there again and would also recommend it.
The room was comfortable and the continental breakfast was excellent. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about local attractions (Fortress of Louisbourg, Louisbourg Lighthouse, etc.).
The property grounds are magnificent, the on-site restaurant -the Bothy- is hands down the best meal we had on this trip and our room (16) was modern and comfortable, with a bonus view of the water
Room confortable and clean. The breakfast was delicious and the host really nice. Was not fully booked the night we were there so he upgraded us to a bigger/nicer room. Thank you
It was a great location! It was very clean and functional. The view was great (oceanview and of the fortress of Louisbourg) and the staff was very helpful and friendly.
