Stayed two nights. Lovely hosts. The only point of improvement we had was that tap water was not drinkable, so there was a large bottle on the counter instead. Understood that the area is in a deep drought in fall 2025. Outdoor shower was a treat. Property very interesting if you are a horticulture buff, quite the history on this site!

We made a last minute decision to attend a concert in nearby Lunenburg, and were absolutely delighted when we pulled into the driveway and realized what a gem we would be staying in. Diane and Chris are generous hosts, sharing this incredible place they are lovingly restoring - the house was wonderful and the property a wonderland of trees and bushes from around the world. It is a special space, made more so by the convenient location close to beautiful beaches, a great pizza spot and historic towns and communities within minutes.
