Ocean, beach, privacy.

On those rainy days hang out in the living room on the couch or the floating lounger, which overlook the ocean, cuddle up in a blanket and pick a book to read from our library, watch Netflix on the Smart TV, pick from dozens of movies on DVDs, play with the Wii or PS3, or bring out board and card games, Legos and puzzles to pass the time.

Amazing views, adorable cabin

We loved our stay here! Star gazing, sitting on the deck with wine and even seeing bioluminescent algae in the water at night was amazing plus so quiet and peaceful. Owners are very kind and helpful too.

Wonderful stay!

We stayed for a week in July 2023. Beautiful location on St. Margarets Bay, with a lot of bay or open ocean beaches around. Cottage is clean and well equipped and the owners have their house nearby so if you need anything it is very easy. We especially loved the private beach, perfect for a a swim or a fire at night! Very nice spot, I would highly recommend!

Quiet retreat

Awesome property on the St Margret bay. An easy drive to Halifax, Peggy’s Cove and Lunenburg. Owners were super accommodating and home was well stocked. The grass hill down from the parking was a bit of a hike to carry everything in and out. But once there it was lovely rain and shine.

Bicycling, relaxing and sightseeing

Great location, convenient for day trips to Halifax and Peggy's cove and whale watching in Lulenbetg. Enjoyed swimming at the private beech and spotting early morning dolphins from deck. Close to St Margaret Bay rail trail, biked 30km trips right from property north to Bike and Bean for lunch as well as 30km trip to Tuna Blue in Hubbards bay for lunch. Nice neighbors. Great freindly hosts Egon and Patty.

Best kept secret

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We arrived after midnight and Egon provided flashlights and helped us with our bags down the hill! The amenities were very nice; we felt right at home. There even was Nespresso which we enjoyed each morning. We were often away during low tide so we didn’t get a chance to enjoy the beach. My husband embraced fishing from the rock next to the cottage. We will definitely be back!

Perfect in every way

This is the most amazing property we’ve ever visited. It sits right on the water and offers gorgeous views. Whether it’s cloudy, sunny, rainy, every day offers a different spectacular scene. There’s so much to watch. We spent hours every morning just sitting on the deck over the water. The house itself is very clean and very, very well maintained. It has a top notch heating/ac/dehumidifier system so inside is always comfortable and clean. It has everything you could possibly need. There’s even a water cooler with an extra bottle which was so convenient for filling water bottles for hikes. Egon and Party have done a wonderful job decorating and making use of the space. It’s a studio house, but each section feels very separate- a very clever layout. There are three kayaks so no need to rent. The area is perfect for setting in a kayak easily. The property is conveniently located to so many different areas for exploring—not far from Halifax, Mahone Bay, Peggy’s Cove etc. We especially enjoyed the Gaff Trail on Hirtle’s Beach near Lunenburg. There is so much to do but honestly, we would have been perfectly content to stay all day at the house. Patty and Egon were the absolute best hosts. Responsive to questions, so welcoming and just very genuinely kind people. I can’t rate this experience highly enough. We will be back every year!
