We had a lovely stay at the cottage. Monika and Karl were very friendly, but gave us lots of space. Perfect cottage with lovely clean windows, which makes the view even better. Everything you need, comfortable bed. Would definitely stay again. Many thanks.

The perfect peaceful hide away!

Cozy place!! Close to our favourite beach, Rissers. We fell asleep to the beautiful sound of the rain tap dancing on the metal roof. We were awakened to the sweet morning greetings of song birds and a rooster crowing. Enjoyed our morning tea on the front porch to the curiosity of chickens clucking all around us. Monika and Karl’s property is an absolute gem!!

Beautiful, idyllic place

Exceptionally kind and friendly hosts, beautiful property and lovely small house. Enjoyed visits from curious chickens and turkeys during the day. A cozy woodstove inside and a fire pit under the stars out in the yard. I will definitely be returning!

About the host

Hosted by Monika and Karl

We are Karl and Monika and we have been on the South Shore of Nova Scotia since 2011. We have a hobby farm where we do some market gardening, have laying chickens and farm cats. A working homestead and we love it. We have traveled and experienced many places and definitely consider this home.

Why they chose this property

This was the best ever case scenario for us. The property has acreage for animals as well as being able to keep the land that surrounds us protected. There is a lake in front and an incredible view in the back. We can even see on a clear day, a peak of the ocean from the upstairs of our home.

What makes this property unique

This is our home and homestead. There is nature all around and open spaces which makes us feel very grounded. We are also fairly close to the airport to pick up visiting family as well as a town that has all the amenities that we need.
