We were very happy with our stay here, the host was awesome, the location was excellent. We were only 30 minutes away from all the places we wanted to visit but far enough from all the hustle and bustle, very cosy spot. We could sit out in the evening down by the water!!

We are on a long journey - when we tire of hotels we like to grab a VRBO property for a couple of days or so to catch up on laundry, have home cooked meals and stretch out. This basement suite suited us perfectly! Host was wonderful and met us on arrival.

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay in this home. Clean, spacious, comfortable across the street from the water. Great owner to work with. She makes sure your stay has all it needs including bikes for the bike trail right off the back property and kayaks and paddle boards. Wish we had more time to play!! Close drive to Halifax and Peggy’s Cove. Definitely recommend!

Good location

Quiet neighborhood, but conveniently located to Halifax. Property was clean and comfortable. You are required to do separation of your trash, between several different categories of composting and recycling, etc. It’s a small sacrifice, considering the rest of the property.

Great place, great host

This place was exactly as describe, and perfectly located for our trip. The place was clean and comfortable. I really appreciated the homey feel. I was able to make meals for the family and even got a couple loads of laundry done. Plenty of windows for a downstairs suite. The beds were comfortable. The host, Ethel was wonderfull. Very prompt on her emails, very helpful once we got there. I would definitely recommend this place.

The best place ever I had!

These are extremely cozy apartments. The landlady took care of every little detail. Waking up and seeing the ocean from the window is simply incredible! Magical beaches are just nearby. Special thanks to the landlady Ethel. She is an incredibly nice person and can help with any questions. We will definitely recommend this place to everyone acquaintances!

A little piece of Heaven!!!

A wonderful escape from the city! The hospitality was top notch! Clean... spacious and everything we need to have a weekend getaway. Ethel cared for us and provided us with anything we needed. The ocean is across the street so the sound of the waves lulls you to sleep and provides a fun playground during the nice days. This location is close to several beaches and our beautiful South Shore. Us girls will most definitely be having more girl weekends with Ethel and the ocean!
