About this property:
This is a recently renovated and beautifully decorated 3 bedroom suite, located on the second floor of a 100+year old historic Lunenburg house.
Named the Captains Suite after the hosts late grandfather, who was a well know captain of a scallop dragger in the town. He lived in the downstairs of this house which he restored in the 1990's. His grandson (your host) has now renovated and updated the suite with a nautical theme and welcomes you to stay and enjoy this space.
This private suite has it's own separate entrance (FYI there is a large set of stairs to get to the entrance, so people with mobility issues may want to reconsider).
Enjoy the surprisingly private and beautiful nature views through the large glass windows or while you sit out on the rear outdoor deck, which has a BBQ, plenty of patio furniture and dining space to enjoy spending time, relaxing, sun soaking and eating meals on. At night you can enjoy the propane fire pit while stargazing at the beautiful night sky.
There is a large living and dinning room combo, with a dinning table to seat 6 people and tv with internet streaming services such as Netflix, Disney+, and many live streaming shows.
The fully equipped kitchen has a fridge/freezer, electric cooktop stove and oven, microwave and dishwasher. All cutlery, plates, glasses and cooking essentials are provided.
There are 3 bedrooms: one with a king size bed, one with a queen size bed and one with a bunk bed that contains a twin mattress on the bottom and a single on the top.
The bathroom has in-floor heating, a shower and large bathtub nook, perfect for soaking and relaxing in.
The suite also has a washer and drier which you are able to use for laundry.
There is parking on site for 2 vehicles and free street parking is available nearby if extra parking is required. During July and August there is also free street parking available directly in front of the house.
We are sorry but we cannot allow pets at this suite.
Please note that this is a second level suite. The ground-floor space is a completely separate dwelling, where your hosts and their family. Due to this being a second-level suite, there is no yard space available and we ask quests to be mindful that there are people living below and ask to not host parties or be noisy after the designated quiet time of 10pm.

Loved our stay! Spacious apt and comfortable beds. Amazing location, quiet and a short walk to town. 3 min walk to a brewery and cafe with a great view of the bay and lunenberg.
Excellent rental property in a fantastic location for exploring the Lunenberg area. Beds were extremely comfortable, bathroom was spacious, and the sun deck was fantastic. The owner really takes pride in this property, and it shows in all the little and thoughtful attentions to detail. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely stay again.
Lovely, spacious, upstairs living though not suitable for anyone who is challenged by steep stairs, or can’t step out of a high bathtub or maneuver between raised floor thresholds. Light, airy rooms, comfortable beds and peaceful outside deck.

Thank you for your review, it was nice having you, although a 4 star rating simply because of accessibility issues I don't feel is fair given that we make it very clear in the listing that this is a second level suit with a large set of stairs and we actually caution anyone with mobility issues against booking.
This is a great place to stay in Lunenburg- a short walk to the harbour and the Fisheries Museum and right across the street from a school (great place for kids to play). Check in was easy and the home is cute and clean. The kitchen had everything we needed and there was a BBQ on the deck. The beds were comfy and the laundry facilities were full size. The home is bright and feels spacious and the private deck is a quiet and peaceful spot to relax. We would love to go back.
The property had many good features especially the little outdoor patio area. Everything was clean. However, we would have enjoyed it more if we had slept better as we found the air cooling noisy and insufficient and the beds not overly comfortable.
We enjoyed our five-day stay in Chad's home with our toddler and some family friends. Property is exactly as described in the listing. It's clean, comfortable and well-located in Lunenburg. Communication with Chad was great, and he was quick to assist us when we had questions. Strongly recommended, we would book this property again.
Perfect place to explore Lunenburg from, short walk to downtown. Main bedroom was very conformable. Outside space was large and very usable. As Chad mentioned there outside stairs, they seem to be steeper than normal, shower is raised. So if you have mobility issues be aware.
Everything was perfect and all dealings went smoothly! The place was just as advertised! Very clean and well stocked with all we needed. Beds were very comfortable! Nice shower! Loved having the patio to sit outside. The place was spacious and comfortable! Good size TV with cable! A/C in 2 bedrooms and a ceiling fan and screened window in the room with the king size bed. Temperatures outside were 25-26 Celsius and we had comfortable sleeps. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends. Loved it here!

Wir waren 2 Nächte in dieser Wohnung und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Terrasse hat uns besonders gefallen. Die meisten Räume sind grosszüzig bemessen. Die Aussentreppe zur Eingangstür ist steil, aber zum Glück mit einem Geländer versehen.
