Loved our stay! The location on the coast is wonderful and best of all there is space to walk around and explore a little. We found the staff friendly and helpful, the facilities were great and we really enjoyed dinner and breakfast on-site. Looking forward to going back.

Only quibble is the overly priced food/drink options. Every night we stayed here (3 nights total) spent an average $150-200 exclusively at the bar/restaurant. But it's the only spot nearby and we were on vacay so splurgin we did lol.
Our room was well decorated but one can tell it's aged. Yet still comfy and had phenomenal cliff-side ocean views.
Staff at the main lobby and bar were top-notch, profesh, hospitable, and welcoming.
Would we stay at this place again? Not unless we're planning to over spend & splurge :-D

The entire staff we interacted with at the property were stellar. The resort is very dog-friendly with plenty of pet waste stations available around the property. There were activities for the entire family, from scavenger hunts to board games, to table tennis and pool table and a life-size chess board. The on-site restaurant prepared delicious meals throughout the day and offered fun freebies like sunset champagne, evening cookies, and limited breakfast pastries at certain times. The fireplace was a nice touch to their rooms and the views were spectacular from the suites. I am already looking forward to my next visit.

Wonderful three nights stay at the Timber Cove Resort enjoying the big fire place and fantastic scenery. I had not been to the Timber Cove Resort in 23 years and it was even better than I remembered. The Menu was creative and every dish was delicious especially the smoked Trout chowder.
