The cottage was clean and well supplied with everything we needed. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The area is really lovely and we enjoyed hiking the Rails to Trails pathway which is just across the road from the camp.

Super cute cottage, plenty of room (cottage #1). Responsive, accessible office staff on property and everyone was very friendly. Property is well kept up. Note that the photo of a cottage in the listing is just one of the cottages and most are not right on the beach like that. But a very short distance away. I would highly recommend.

Great stay
Had a lovely time. The cottage was beautiful and well located. The rooms were very comfortable and well furnished. Hosts were very responsive and pleasant. The only thing I didn’t enjoy was the fact that the sauna was shared. Some of the other tenants didn’t let us use the sauna and that was unpleasant. Maybe they should consider writing that people shouldn’t use/keep the sauna for themselves for more than a set amount of time ex. 30 minutes.
The cottage was comfortable and well set up. We will definitely consider going back: it's a great distance for a weekend getaway from Halifax, and the amenities are nice (that sauna!). The only issue we found (because we went to curl up and read books together!) was that the lighting in the main space was not great: a couple of floor lamps would have been great.
