About this property
Cow Bay Life - Sunrise Stays, Osbourne Head, Cow Bay
My mom used to say that the ocean air gives life to your lungs. We built this accessible backyard suite on our property for her, but now it's entirely yours. Experience gorgeous sunrises, access a secluded pebble beach, kayak and surf the ocean, bike the Cow Bay loop and the Salt Marsh trail, and enjoy Rainbow Haven beach all while being only minutes from Halifax. Cow Bay has been a haven for Nova Scotians since 1773. We hope you come to enjoy our home as much as we do.
