We loved staying in prospect bay. The house was beautiful, updated, and well-equipped. The deck and dock were so lovely to drink coffee on. The house was clean and the perfect distance to so many popular destinations. Greg’s communication and recommendations were wonderful. We would love to stay again if we find ourselves in Prospect Bay!

We had a glorious 6 nights. The house is well stocked w/kitchen needs, the bedrooms are very comfortable and the bigger room has wonderful morning light, the exterior has a peaceful view of the bay, comfortable sitting. This is a house that feels so welcoming that it's difficult to leave-the host was just that.... very attentive and available and a friend at arm's length.... do not hesitate,this is grand

Book this place!

The pictures don’t do this place justice. It’s a beautiful cottage with amazing views. You have plenty of privacy but are still close to amenities. The cottage itself has everything you could need and Greg was easily reachable for quick questions. We only spend a few days here but would love to come back and just relax for a week or two. You’re able to fish off the dock, there are kayaks available to use as well (too adventurous for me). All of the furnishings were super comfortable and we enjoyed everything. I took a chance on this place with only 1 review and have zero regrets.

Beautiful place

Our stay on Prospect Bay was amazing. Property was just right for us (couple w 2 kids). Amazing kitchen setup, stunning masterbdrm, dock was lovely and a gorgeous view. We were able to go kayaking and saw a seal. Neighbours are nice and queer positive. Great to come back to after a day of exploring the south shore. The most amazing hike only 5 min away. Greg was super responsive to any questions or concerns. The only challenge is the lack of close charging stations for our EV but luckily Halifax is close. We would definitely return.

About the host

Hosted by Greg Oickle

Host profile image
Originally hailing from the East Coast, my connection to the ocean is strong. Exploring new destinations with my wife brings me great joy, but nothing quite compares to the tranquility I find by the shore. Sharing the beauty and charm of my hometown, the Prospect communities, is a genuine pleasure. The ocean's presence is deeply meaningful to me, and I know our guests will experience its calming influence during their stay
