Beautiful house, very well located, near Pubnicos and Yarmouth. The scenery is magnificent. We stayed here for a week and loved it. The kitchen was very well equipped and the house was spotlessly clean. Our host Daniel was easy to reach and always attentive.

We had a good stay. The deck and outdoor area were nice, but make sure to bring bug spray and/or a Thermacell. Didn’t get a chance to use the sauna as there was a bit of a heatwave during our stay!

Vacation

We had a great stay. The house had all we needed and Daniel responded quickly and answered all our questions. At one point the dryer stopped working and in a few hours, Daniel brought us a working dryer. We love the area and the local people are so friendly and helpful. Beaches are beautiful and just an overall great experience. The sauna was a great bonus and we used it almost every day. We highly recommend Daniel's house.

This was truly a wonderful cottage! We had a friends birthday together. Enjoyed cooking, outdoor fire and the barrel sauna. Very handy to get to Inner Oaks where we enjoyed a culinary experience. Also a short drive to Tusket Daniel was an amazing host! There were snacks, coffee and wood for the fireplace. He even offered to start our fire and was just a text away for any questions. Park Glenwood was a short walk from the cottage. Very peaceful A perfect place for our mini adventure

Tree, river, birds were great. However, because the property practically sits on the 103 hwy. It was pretty near imposssible to hear each other speak. Sitting on the deck in morning for my morning coffee was uncomforable. Roads on both sides busy. We like a bit more privacy. The cottage was fantastic. Everything you need. Lots of room. Daniel was very accommodating.

The cottage was great! It has everything you need for a vacation stay. The host Daniel was always available with communication, very pleasant and approachable. We enjoyed sitting outside on the deck in the mornings having a coffee and having fires in the evening. All in all we give the cottage a 5 star review and would absolutely stay again..
