This grand, historic Acadian-style mansion is liberally stocked with antiques and paintings, not to mention an 1890s grand piano. There are two buildings: the original gabled Gallant House, with four Victorian-style rooms; and a newer copy, the MacDonald House, with more modern rooms and a fitness suite. Both are a refined and elegant treat.
