Wonderful and peaceful

This property feels like it is in the middle of complete privacy, yet is close to adequate shopping and dining. If you want alittle more life, it is reasonably close to Halifax and Lunenburg. The home is beautiful and restful. I cannot say enough how much we loved it, even in the pouring rain!!

Secluded High-Tech Luxury

It was the perfect getaway with plenty of room to spare for our two families. The quiet rural setting within a short scenic drive to beautiful beaches made for a very relaxing weekend. It has all the amenities you could possibly want in an extremely comfortable layout, with room to gather as well as to find a private corner for time to yourself. Everything in the house worked as it should and communication was timely and efficient. I only wish we had more time to enjoy the enjoy the property.

Leaves you wanting for nothing

It was a wonderful couple days with the family. Closely located to shopping but far enough away from everything to decompress and relax. You couldn’t ask for anymore amenities, the house had everything. We had an amazing games night complete with a shuffleboard tournament! Thank you again Chris.
