Western Newfoundland is a hiker's paradise, and Bonne Bay Pond is a comfortable and convenient home base for your explorations. Western Brook Pond, the Tablelands and Deer Lake are all within a fairly short drive. For a longer outing, make your way to Corner Brook and then west to land's end at Bottle Cove. The trails there are fairly easy, and the views are stunning!

Perfect location.

Lovely place to stay while visiting Gros Morne National Park. Loved the layout of the house and thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. Will definitely be back.

Very nice place, short drive to Gros Morne and deer lake. I would definitely stay there again!

My two friends and I needed a place to stay for out destination hiking trip. This house was perfect. Had everything we needed and was centrally located near all of our planned activities. Clean house, great location, bonus hot tub, communication with owner excellent. Thanks

We only were able to spend one night of the 4 we booked due to multiple AirCanada flight cancellations; however, we enjoyed a beautiful early morning on the deck. The setting is wonderful.

Just perfect in every way

Deck needs to be overhauled it has weak boards. We had to put the table over one of the soft boards.

We had a great time staying at shady loop. The property manager helped us with getting settled and the owners very responsive to messages. The property was well prepared and we all enjoyed our stay. We would highly recommend.

We had a great time staying at this property. We are a family of five from the Netherlands and we had good communication with the owner what to expect and how to get there. Nice bedrooms for everyone and a great hangout for our kids in the basement with large TV screen. Good kitchen and bathrooms. And offcourse a great experience in the hot tub, watching the stars at night or the surrounding nature. The shady loop is on a 15 minute drive from the Gros Morne park. Thank you for having us!

We loved the location and convenience of this house. The view was spectacular and barring bad weather the grounds added to a relaxed and enjoyable getaway. After having booked more than 12 months in advance, the house was not ready for us when we arrived late in the day. This was very disappointing. In general the house felt OK, but not spot on as far as cleanliness of the place.

The property location is great for a winter snowmobiling trip. Easy access to trails and backcountry. Owners are great to book with and very accommodating. Home is very clean.

Thank you Jen and Joel for a wonderful time at your delightful house! From our first contact with you through the end of our stay our rental experience with you was perfect! This house is well appointed and very clean. We did all of our cooking in and the kitchen had everything we needed to do so - all we had to do was supply the food and cook it! There is ample bedding and towels as well as towels for the hot tub and beach. The pond is a short walk away and would have been warm enough to swim in had we had time. We will definitely be recommending your place to family and friends!

Wonderful location, beautiful deck (although some of the boards are in need of replacing) with great view of the lake. Great space indoors for 6 people.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Gros Morne and Chateau Shady Loop is located in an ideal spot for exploring both the Tablelands and Rocky Harbour sides of the park. The house was very nice and easy to find. While there were a few things that could use minor maintenance they did not negatively impact our stay. I would recommend picking up groceries in Deer Lake before checking into the house. We really enjoyed the West Brook Pond boat tour, sea kayaking with Gros Morne Adventure, the Tablelands hike and of course conquering Gros Morne Mountain. It is quite a hike -took us 7.5 hours but well worth it! The Deer Lake Insectarium is also fun for a rainy day or before flying home. We would definitely recommend this location to friends and would stay here again ourselves. Gros Morne is fantastic!

Everything was great! Directions were spot on, no issues with the door lock code, and once inside, extremely well equipped. The views were fabulous. We'd start each morning with a coffee on the deck overlooking the water, and then start our adventures. The hot tub was a welcome addition to soothe our aches after a day of hiking in Gros Morne. Weather was great, very sunny and the only thing we wished for was a way to open the awning to give us a bit of shade. All in, would definitely return, and if you're looking for a well equipped, well situated home base for your adventures, this is it.

We had a wonderful time. The home was perfect for our family. It was so close to Gros Morne! The kids were disappointed that there was no air hockey table, but there were plenty of other things to do. The hot tub was wonderful after hiking the Tablelands during the day and it was fun watching the beavers and ducks in the pond just outside the window. It was difficult to leave, wish we had stayed two more days even though we woke up to snow on the day we left.

A perfect location from which to explore Gros Morne: we headed out to Trout River one day, to a Bonne Bay boat tour the next day, and to Western Brook Pond the final day...returning each evening to Bonne Bay Pond and brilliant pink and purple sunsets viewed from the hottub. This property is wonderfully quiet, with nothing but the sound of birds in the morning and frogs on the pond in the evening...and our final morning we looked out the window to see a moose out in the marsh! Kitchen is quite well equipped for preparing a few meals in, though given the amazing seafood in the area, could use a few lobster implements (we used our hands, sheer determination, and a few bandaids...) Plastic wine glasses for use in the hottub are a great touch! Thanks for sharing this lovely spot with us.

We rented for the hot tub and the view and it met our expectations. The house does need some general maintenance. Dishwasher took some time to figure out. Large tv in basement was excellent.

We really enjoyed our stay and will book again in the future. The location was perfect for our winter Snowmobiling trip. The home was very clean, spacious, well kept and comfortable with all amenities one would need. The hot tub is an added bonus!

Comfortable, clean house with everything you could wish for. Very responsive and helpful hosts. Perfect location. The hot tub was the best, of course!!

Gros Morne National Park should be on everyone's must-do list. Chateau Shady loop was the perfect home away from home for our group of 3 couples. We spent the days experiencing Gros Morne, the evenings were very relaxing enjoying wine and a sunset over the pond. We utilized the kitchen making great dinners and relaxing in the hot tub. The property is very clean, the bedrooms are large and comfortable. Jen and Joel are wonderful hosts, from booking to settling in, everything was seamless with perfect communications. Highly recommend Chateau Shady Loop

This was an incredible property. It was private and quiet, and the house was very thoughtfully and nicely stocked with everything we needed. It was the perfect home base for exploring Gros Morne. The hot tub was perfect and clean, and the barbecue was high end and hooked into a main gas line, which was extremely convenient. The level of privacy cannot be beat. Even a great TV with Netflix which is a huge help if you're there with kids. Not sure how it could have been better. Thoughtful owners and a great home in a great location with great facilities. Thank you!

We had the pleasure of staying here 4 days. Great location, easy access to Gros Morne park and close to Deer Lake for groceries.. The house is cozy, comfortable and well appointed (amazing hot tub!) but considering the price some minor maintenance details needed attending too (dishwasher, hole in deck, toilet paper holder..) to make it a 5 star.

Our 2nd snowmobiling trip to Shady Loop Chalet did not disappoint 😁� It really is a little piece of heaven on earth 🌨� Even with the winter weather we totally enjoy yourself, 25 cm of fresh powder on top of at least 6 feet of snow is a dream. Excellent conditions and all the trails are on your doorstep. Once the vehicle was parked on Thursday, it didn't move until Monday morning. Three great days on the trails, to return to a cozy home with everything you need, total relaxation each evening and the hot tub💗�. Like I said, heaven on earth!!! Can't wait for next year, may just have to plan two visits 😍�

This is at least the 3rd time we have stayed at Shady loop for our annual snowmobiling trips. Our group usually consists of any where from 4 to 6 men. The home never disappoints and there is always ample space for this many guests. There is lots of space for gear to be laid out in the basement near the propane stove and is well dry by the morning. The full kitchen is great for preparing your own meals and you never need to eat out if you don't want too. As well the newly installed high end BBQ on is a great addition. There is ample parking at the home and you can drive your truck and trailer right to the door. No need to have to carry gear in toboggans upon arrival or when leaving. The Bonne Bay Pond area is one of the best on the island for snowmobiling with good reliable snow most winters from January to April. The Jack ladder is only a short hop away and has some groceries, small bar/restaurant with excellent food and a gas bar. No need to worry about having to bring gas in Jerry cans as you can gas up every evening at the jack ladder. Overall Shady loop is one of the best places I have stayed on the West coast of Newfoundland for snowmobiling and would recommend this property to anybody interested snowmobiling in this area.
