Beautiful 2 BR Apartment, fully equipped Kitchen, W/D for a short or extended stay and offers a stunning view of the ocean just off the balcony with BBQ, and private sitting area to watch the sunrise or just to relax and enjoy. Inside you can relax in air-conditioned comfort on those hot days, or curl up next to the electric fireplace on the cold nights while watching your favorite movie. The centerpiece of the apartment for me is the walk-in shower with engraved glass panels. These etchings were created by a local artist and are one of a kind hand-sketched and feature the Bluenose and the Peggy's Cove Lighthouse, 2 of our most famous attractions here in Nova Scotia. Kayaks available onsite complimentary, private island tours provided by the host are optional with advance reservations You will have access to local shops and cafes, as well as the rails to trails walking path just across the street.

Location was perfect for my husband and I. Steve had thought of everything that would possibly be needed for our stay at St. Margaret’s Bay in Nova Scotia. We will definitely be back.
Beautiful location right on the bay. Lovely view from the deck and living room. Comfortable suite, with everything you'll need, and the location offers easy access to the many sites in the area.The hosts are extremely welcoming and friendly. You won't be disappointed with your choice to stay here.
It was a little piece of heaven. The view was beautiful. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the loons. It was very well-equipped. The hosts were very nice and willing to help. Our harbor cruise was informative and beautiful.

We had a great time staying here. We were traveling all over the east coast and this was a great place to stay while having easy access to Nova Scotia and some of the sights. Everything you need is provided. The managers are super friendly and helpful. Couldn’t have asked for better accommodations.

The apartment was very well equipped for a short or long stay. The owners were very welcoming and offered very good suggestions on what to see and do during our stay. We really enjoyed our stay and meeting the hosts.
The home was an easy shot into Halifax where our Uncle lives in a Nursing Home. T was easy to go back and forth to visit him daily. We would return home to a relaxing view of the water. Perfect for the two of us
My wife and I were very happy with the property. The view from the windows and balcony were beautiful and certainly reflected Maritime life. From the fishing and sail boats docked on the property to watching the paddle boarders and walking to the private beach. While watching the fog roll into the bay we really felt immersed into what Nova Scotia rural scenery had to offer. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful.

Harold and mary ..you were exceptional guests.
I know you had a busy schedule so didnt get to socialize with you very much so hope to see you both in the future and get out on the bay next time.
I enjoyed my stay at this property. The hosts were very communicative, but no issues arose that needed to be dealt with. The property was very nice and had everything I needed for a week-long stay. I would recommend this property to anyone in the future.
This was an amazing property. The hosts live right next-door and it’s on Saint Margaret’s Bay. Steve and Johane were very attentive hosts and every question we asked or if we needed something they were right there for us. They recommended several restaurants, told us about some of the things in the area and Steve even took us out for an evening boat cruise to see the around the bay. I highly recommend this property for anybody who wants to stay in the area. And we would definitely come back again. Thank you, Steve and Johane! 5 star property for sure!!!
Our stay was really amazing. The view of the water and boats was so nice and we were close to everything we wanted to do in the Halifax area for our stay. The apartment is spacious, beds were comfortable and the dishwasher was great to have. It is close to the road and you do hear trafic passing by but with windows closed and the AC, we could hear it less. The highlight of our stay was when Steve and Johanna took time in the evening to bring us and our teenager who loves fishing out on the sea for a boat ride and some fishing. Our child still talks about it and he just adored it. Thank you again to both of you for doing this, it was amazing!
Really enjoyed our stay and would liked to have been there longer if we had the time. Nice location right by the water with friendly helpful hosts. Great views and well equiped.
Great location to get to many spots in NS. Steve is very accommodating and is there to help with anything you need. Location has all the amenities you need. Great to be able to grab a kayak or paddle boards and go out in the bay to explore the area. Would come
Back again in the future.
Everything was wonderful! The hosts were friendly and helpful. The rental has anything you could need. It was close enough to grocery stores and places to eat while being relaxed. We also had our small dog with us
