We stayed for 7 nights and were quite comfortable. We had an event in Chester each day, and the house was conveniently located for the daily commute. The kitchen was the most well-stocked kitchen and there were more towels and extra linens than any property we have rented in the past. Communication was excellent and the neighborhood was quiet with a pretty view to relax by at the end of the day.

We wish we would have had 10 days, 7 days were just too few!!!! We loved the cottage and the view. Some sailboats and a fishing boat added to the beauty and charm of the cove. We had guests for dinner and they LOVED it too. The beds were super comfy and shower facilities perfect. The kitchen was so-well equipped - we couldn't have asked for more. The location was also perfect - not too far from Halifax and on the way to the heart of the South Shore. The cottage was decorated beautifully. The artwork really appealed to us as well.

Beautiful East coast Cottage

We had a lovely stay in Deep cove cottage which was scenic and serene. It was close to both Chester & Mahone bay for restaurants. The couple who owned it were friendly and attentive and even brought me their Kayak to use.
