Independent in Gander from AU$176

"Food was good. For more comfort for two people a small two seat sofa would be better than the single soft chair in the room. "

"I really like this hotel. The staff are very friendly and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The restaurant is very good with vegetarian and vegan options. The server was absolutely sweet as pie. Gander as you know hosted 38 planes and roughly 7000 people during the no fly situation after 9/11. They are living up to their friendly reputation. A must for your historical journey. "

"Wonderful hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Rooms were clean and spacious. Breakfast was terrific."

"The main objective of our 15 day trip to Newfoundland was to see icebergs, puffins and several coastal villages. But we also wanted at least one night inland. Back Country Cottages fit that perfectly. A full 30 km inland on old logging roads and trails off the highway, to the cabin at a 12 km long “pond”. We were really glad we had the owner drive us in and out in his truck because our rented sedan would have bottomed out in several places. It also gave us a great chat with the friendly and humorous owner who grew up in the area, to learn local history. The cabin was beautifully finish with all walls, ceilings and cabinets in knotty pine. Very rustic and calming vs the usual multi colour and nick nacks in many B&B. Would be fabulous for trout and salmon fly/fisher-people to stay for many days. "
