Miscellaneous
Being a remote property, we have installed security cameras on the outside of the home to ensure everyone's safety. There are no cameras inside the house or facing the hot tub. Your privacy is fully respected.
A note about the hot tub- Due to naturally high iron content in the water here in Nova Scotia, the hot tub water may occasionally appear discoloured or murky. Rest assured, our team takes cleanliness & water quality VERY seriously. We stay on top of it all, so you just have to pack your bathing suit (or not)!
