Response from VrboOwner on 7 July 2026
It was a pleasure having you stay with us. You are welcome back any time.
This was a really well done property. It was very clean and well designed. Andrea and Jeff couldn't have been more pleasant, responsive and hospitable. Although they share the property, they gave us space to enjoy it. Hooked us up with a great restaurant recommendation. Sauna, hot tub, and back yard amenities were great. Great location to visit Peggys Cove, Mahone Bay and Lunenburg. I recommend.

About the host
Hosted by Jeffrey Ruscica
Andrea and I made the move to Nova Scotia from Ontario in 2022, and it’s been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. We quickly fell in love with the natural beauty, coastal lifestyle, and welcoming communities that make this province so special.
Hosting has become a meaningful way for us to share that experience with others and help our guests discover everything Nova Scotia has to offer.
I’m a Professional Engineer and work as a Construction Director on a major hospital project here in the province, which has given me a deep appreciation for quality, attention to detail, and creating spaces that are both functional and comfortable. Andrea is semi-retired and works part-time at a local dental clinic, and she brings a thoughtful, caring touch to everything we do—especially when it comes to ensuring our guests feel welcome, relaxed, and well taken care of.
Together, we take great pride in hosting and are committed to providing a clean, comfortable, and memorable stay. Whether it’s offering local recommendations, ensuring the space is well-appointed, or simply giving guests the privacy to unwind, we strive to create an experience that reflects the best of East Coast hospitality.
We truly enjoy sharing this beautiful part of the world and hope your stay allows you to slow down, recharge, and take in all the charm and coastal beauty that drew us here.
