All in all, an excellent stay. From the very well appointed cabana to the extreme quiet (except for the wind in the trees and the birds), the top deck grill station, kitchen, dining and relaxing area. Comfortable king size bed and double outside showers added to the high end relax vibe.

Beautiful cottage. Classy and modern furnishings. The host thoughtfully provided many items for our comfort. Plenty of good coffee, Adequate spices for cooking. The host is very kind and responsive. The bay view is beautiful on the upper deck. The screened patio view is not so great anymore because someone is building a house below the cottage. In the nutshell the area and the cottage is so beautiful, tranquil but still very close to Lunenburg.Enjoyed the free ferry to LaHave bakery and the bakery itself.

Lovely little house with all the amenities and more.

Perfect place to use as a home base to explore the south shore and beyond. Clean, cozy, quiet, views of the bay to enjoy from the rooftop patio and lovely little cove to visit and take a dip in the ocean.

Whitecaps Cabana was the perfect place for us to spend our week long trip in Nova Scotia! We enjoyed the daybed on the upper deck, the fire pit, the outdoor showers, and the massive comfortable bed. We would definitely stay here again. 😊

We stayed for 3 days and 3 nights as part of our 20th anniversary trip to Nova Scotia, and it was everything we hoped it would be! Fantastic views, peaceful location and the Cabana had everything we needed. We had ‘happy hour’ followed by local seafood dinners on the rooftop every night, and a s’mores with a glass of wine by the fire.Easy drive to Lunenburg (which is a must) and a number of beaches (Sand Dollar was great).Many thanks to our hosts Jacqui and Andy for sharing their beautiful cabana!

We had a wonderful time at your property. The ocean views are amazing and the field of wild flowers was beautiful to look at while enjoying a cup of coffee or a cocktail. The outdoor shower was fantastic. Close to Lunenberg for touring or any other destination on the South Shore. Many thanks
