The cottage was clean and nice. Had a nice view of the water. June was very responsive. The only things that were great is the Barbeque only has one working burner and is pretty worn out. The other thing is that one of the beds rolled around as it didn't have wheel stoppers under the wheels.

This is by far one of the best cottages I have stayed at. It was very clean and nicely decorated, and it had everything we needed. One of the highlights of this cottage is the stunning morning view overlooking the waterfront. They even have a Hummingbird come visit in the mornings. We were also lucky to meet the owners, who gave us some helpful tips, saving us time exploring the area. The owners truly wanted to make sure we enjoyed our stay, and for that, I am very thankful.

Comfortable home a nice distance away from the city but still close enough to the things we wanted to do. The home had everything we needed. Great hosts! Just need updated photos of the exterior as there have been changes made to the property. Thanks for everything!

Well appointed and comfortable with all the basic supplies- tea,coffee, soap, etc.. The beds vary in firmness, which we appreciated. The views are beautiful and there is a perfect kayak launching spot feet from the house. June was very responsive, gave us some great reccomendations, and was very sweet. We highly reccomend this home.

Perfect weekend getaway

The house was lovely and clean. June was extremely responsive, and the check-in process was a breeze. The house was very well appointed and well organized with everything you could need, including a few extras like coffee, tea, and a few snacks.

Home for a wedding

Seven of us came from Calgary and Toronto to attend a wedding in Peggy’s Cove. June’s place was our home base and it was all we could have asked for… watching the tide change, campfires and zipping back and forth to Halifax.

A great location with a house needing a few tweaks.

This house was in a great location right on the waterfront where you can sit in the morning watching the birds. The biggest concern with the property was the cleanliness. The sheets on one of the beds smelled and was visibly dirty. The toilets were also needing cleaning. Additionally, one of the rooms opened directly into the staircase. There was also a problem with the door in one of the bedrooms. In summary, the location was nice but the inside left things to be desired.

I thought the property was OK. A few things stood out in which I was a little confused with. One is if you post a hot tub on site ....show us the Hot tub. There was no hot tub. Next please clean the BBQ It was very dirty and needed bigtime cleaning. Also when you have a firepit please have wood available. I stayed at many VRBOS and everyone had plenty of wood. There was no wood and luckily I got some from some good people around the surrounding area. I'm just happy I looked after my family so they could have a great time. I guess over-all it was a good time but please advertise what you really do and don't have. Oh and I would say Crystal Crescent beach was amazing.
