Would absolutely recommend The Blackfin to anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the everyday! The cottage was a home away from home, perfectly positioned with hiking trails in all directions. Our hosts were extremely warm and accommodating, and we look forward to coming back in the future!
The property is in a great location with waterfront view. Nicely decorated, very clean and cozy. Kitchen well equipped with basic cooking amenities such as olive oil, spices, dish soa etc. Beds were very comfortable. Washer/dryer was a bonus. There were board games, reading books and a lovely sitting area. Would book this property again!
This home is centrally located to get to Gros Morne National Park Activities, and walk to shops and restaurants. However we adored the restful nature and privacy of this home. The outdoor chairs provided are great, as are the well placed sunroom windows to watch the Atlantic and the Atlantic sunsets. The inside of this Blackfin house, has artistic decor that really enhanced our stay with the beautiful colours, textures and patterns. Great washer and dryer, excellent beds, comfortable furniture, wifi and a great shower head! We loved our stay!
This is the perfect place to stay in Rocky Harbour. The porch looks out over the water, and gave us a view of stunning sunsets. It's a quiet area, and a short drive to Gros Morne for hiking. We would definitely stay here again.
The Blackfin was just right for us for our trip to Gros Morne. We had everything we needed and the location was beautiful. Great to be able to do some laundry as well.
Beautiful location. Easy drive to various trails in Gros Morne. Everything was perfect; quiet neighbourhood; and beautiful property on the water with all the amenities of home. Hope to come again.
Cozy accommodations with easy access to park trails. Walk down to the shoreline/lookout in front of the house for sunsets or morning coffee. Groceries are 10 minute walk away.
Perfect would be the word to describe our stay in Rocky Harbour. The accommodation is roomy, bright, modern and extremely clean. Communication with the host was cordial and timely. We highly recommend this property to everyone.
I really enjoyed this place. It had everything we needed. The sunsets were gorgeous. The location was great. The a/c worked well. The mattresses were comfortable too. The owner told us to stock up on groceries before coming. We did, but I wish we had brought more with us.
Very comfortable and well appointed. Everything you could want in every area, kitchen, living areas, bedrooms and bathroom. Even extra blankets/throws for sitting outside on a chilly evening. Very clean and ideal for a multi-day stay. Great location and beautiful views over the water (when the fog lifted)
Super well appointed kitchen. Great indoor and outdoor spaces. Engaging art works. Comfortable beds. Great internet. Easy check-in and out. Helpful host. I'd be back in a heartbeat
Urve's Black Fin is a gorgeous and comfortable home with all the amenities you could need to enjoy the spectacular Gros Morne region. well laid out and thoughtful decorations elevate this space to the next level. I've started to acquire her incredible art to elevate my own space! Nothing more breathtaking than the sunset on the front deck.
The Blackfin is right in the heart of everything. Hiking trails are close by and easy to get to. The rental itself is fully equipped, warm and very homey. We could all see ourselves living there. Urve, our host is a lovely lady and a very talented glass artist. Everyone we met was so friendly and provided lots of info on things to see and do in town and beyond.
The wild North Atlantic waters lap the shores of this property, some days the sea rages, others find the waters glossier than a sheet of glass. Spring brings herring, minkes, mackerel, and even diving gannets to the harbour, lobster-fishers move about daily on the waters, and the wilderness of woods and mountains are close to hand. Come explore and enjoy the beauty of Gros Morne!
The wonderful private deck overlooking the water leads to a fire pit with comfy chairs to relax in by the reef where low tide beckons the intrepid to explore the rocky shoreline. This is the perfect place to relax after a day's activities, or just to come and relax. Equipped with a full kitchen and laundry facilities, The Blackfin makes those parts of your journey easy. Rest up, settle in for a long sunset, or even a coffee with the sunrise, explore explore explore! Walk down the garden path to the soft shale beach, follow Uncle John's Channel out through the reefs with your paddleboard or kayak to enjoy an evening sunset paddle in the harbour.
Walking distance to most places in town, or a short drive to trailheads and coastal adventures, The Blackfin is perfectly situated as your base in Gros Morne! Come and enjoy!
