Fantastic location and place to stay. The cottage was equipped with everything we needed for our stay in Nova Scotia. It was cozy and comfortable and Elias reached out a few times to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. We stayed for a week in November and would imagine it's only better in the summer when you can enjoy the deck.

The views from the deck are as pictured, magnificent! The house was clean and well supplied with necessities. An added treat was seeing 4 large deer roaming the neighborhood and eating grass across the street. I recommend this property 100%.

The view from the deck and the house is spectacular over the ocean. Very quiet and lovely neighborhood. House was clean and comfortable. The owner was very responsive to any questions we had.
Clean, simple and issue free. If all you want is a reasonably priced place to sleep, eat and relax in the evening, while accessing the Halifax area, this will meet those needs.
