Book a Madawaska Valley Cottage

"There was no hot water in the room and the mattress was worn out and lacked support. I left with a back ache. When I brought the lack of hot water to their attention in the morning, I was told “yeah room # - doesn’t have hot water in the sink, you should have tried the shower.” There was no way I was going to shower with cold water. No price adjustment was made. The property has a beautiful view of the lake, and a quaint ambiance. I want to support local business, and I did not want to travel to a large chain hotel in Pembroke, even for a cheaper price. Overall, the Sands could use some improvements. For the $200 price, I was seriously disappointed. Make the trek to a better hotel for your money. It had recently snowed, and the walkway was not cleared at all. "

"Clean, cozy and comfortable. After a long day of sledding we picked up some groceries at the local store and bbq'd our dinner. The fridge was stocked with condiments so we only needed our steaks. Kuerig machine made for easy coffee in the morning. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you would have at home. We would definitely stay here again if we're in the area."

"Room was perfect for my working away from home"

"The room was clean, the service is friendly, and if we needed something we just asked and they provided it for us. The room was warm on a very cold day, too."

"Spotless, well appointed, welcoming and felt like home! That is how I would describe Barkview Hideaway. If you are looking to decompress, unplug and recharge, this is it! Thank you Lisa and Ian for creating such a great space, surrounded by nature and beautiful views. "

"This cozy cottage is quite spacious! The hot tub was what I was after and it did not disappoint, even at -25degrees.The only thing I would point out is that you need to bring your own drinking water. "

"It's just a minor issue with the water, but everything was great, thank you."

"Nice big property, beautiful lake view with fire pit. Cozy cottage "

"We had a fabulous stay! Such a clean, spacious, peaceful, well-equipped, and comfy experience. We can’t wait to go back! Every detail was thought through. "
