Skipper Tom's

  • Summary:

    The Space:

    Completely renovated in 2013, the main floor includes an open-concept kitchen/dining area, a large living room, a full bathroom and laundry facility. Upstairs, you'll find two large bedroom suites both with queen beds and en-suite bathrooms, each with its own shower and soaker tub. Each bedroom is equipped with its own TV (with cable) and has beautiful views of the water.



    The home sits on a large piece of land overlooking Robin's Cove. The views can be enjoyed from all rooms in the home, as well as from the large wrap around deck.



    The property was built by the owner's Grandfather Tom in 1914. He was a Skipper on schooners fishing off the Labrador coast. Hence the name "Skipper Tom's".



    On the property, you'll find a working root cellar and a shed that was built in the mid 1800s.

    Other Things to Note:

    This property has been operated as successful vacation home for years, consistently receiving 5-star reviews. Starting in the fall of 2022, the owners have hired Outport Realty to manage the property for them. As such, we are re-listing the property. The owners, who are local to Twillingate, take great pride in this home and look forward to hosting guests for many years to come.
