Place was really spacious, amazing living spaces and out of this world views. Access to kayaks was a great treat. Enjoyed location just outside of Lunenburg and lots to do. Unfortunately weren’t able to get the TV to work and some appliances were finicky to get operating though nothing that would keep us from coming back. The place had so much to offer and was a nice place for a relaxing weekend getaway!

If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway away from the hustle and bustle, this is the perfect place. The home is tucked away in a quiet, rural setting, yet it’s only a 10–15 minute drive to Lunenburg, making it easy to enjoy the area’s shops and restaurants while returning to a relaxing retreat at the end of the day.The home itself is beautiful, spotlessly clean, and appears to be either newly built or recently renovated. It was thoughtfully furnished, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. We especially appreciated the peaceful surroundings—it was the perfect place to unwind while exploring Nova Scotia. We would happily stay here again.
