Vacationing on a budget can be tough and finding accommodations that suit your every need is difficult to say the least, but our very first experience with Airbnb was phenomenal! First of all, the host were so welcoming, so charming, that we immediately, even instinctively, knew we had lucked out with this reservation (4 nights). Secondly, being avid cyclists, we were interested in the “jewel” of the Acadian Peninsula, the famous Veloroute. The trail system can be easily accessed from the cabin, as it is literally a few hundred meters away. Being so close was incredible and the trails did not disappoint. Rosalie and Rod’s place is situated central to all the villages and towns (Shippagan, Caraquet, Tracadie, Miscou, Lameque) which makes it possible to explore all these areas by bike, or you can bring your bike with your car to any town, and explore. Also, while we were away, they even offered to check in on our little dog (yes they accept dogs!). At the end of each ride we got to relax at this cozy cabin #2, which had all the amenities that you could need. Name it, it’s there! The property was even lit up with string lights at night and it was magical coming back from our full day rides. Their place is amazing to explore with so much unique art, decorations and beautiful flowers everywhere. Rosalie even shared some treats she had made as we prepared to leave on one of our rides. Surely we will remember our first Airbnb experience for a long time to come as on the last hour of our stay, Rosalie generously offered perenials from her own garden, for us to transplant to our own flower patch. And we did! As much as we were eager to go riding the incredible Veloroute, the real “gem” we found was at Rosalie and Rod’s. We will definitely be back. And next time, we must reserve more time to explore this fabulous, well-cared for property.
