This is a nice big unit in a lovely area with a nearby walking trail around the lake. However, guests should be aware there are quite a few stairs to get into the unit and they have no railing. If you're carrying luggage up and down the stairs, it can be dangerous.

1970’s spacious retro basement suite. Lovely lake view and had coffee and wine down by the lake to watch the birds several times. Fun with the ping pong table too - what a nice addition. Was damp downstairs and dehumidifier was quite noisy. We still had a lovely time .

Great birthday weekend

We went down with family to celebrate my mom’s birthday. Great location. Beautiful lakeside property. Lots of room and seating. Hosts were very accommodating and quick to respond to messages. We had a fantastic time and the kids loved the big yard to play in. It is a basement location so was a bit damp in the summer, which is expected with a basement but they had a dehumidifier running in one of the rooms.

Waterfront Gold

We came to Halifax for a little get away. So the kids could swim and go fishing, and that is exactly what they did. The water front was perfect, kayaks available (2, with life jackets), paddle boat (needs new steering but it worked ok). The closed in sun room (needs better ventilation, and maybe a propane fire table to complete the setting). The add in itself was a bit mis leading. We didn’t realize that the owners reside on the same property (the upstairs portion of the home). This made a bit uncomfortable as we know our kids can get really loud when having a blast on “vacation”. We were on high alert for noise level because we didn’t want to upset the owners. At the end of the day, the owners did their thing and we did ours. They were helpful when needed and accommodating to our requests. A few things I will mention, for the sole purpose of bettering these mentions. The kitchen is super small and outdated, which is fine, but it def needs better air circulation, a bigger fridge (it’s camper fridge size!) and a few more utensils to complete it. We found the residents to be very damp! We would go to bed at night and our bedding, beds and pillows felt wet and moist. Even with de-humidifiers going. The bathroom was fine (damp), but water pressure was good. There was no remote for the heat pump, so we couldn’t turn it on. The tv didn’t work. All in all it was a nice stay, adults and kids had a great time, made new memories and had a ton of laughs.

Disliked: Amenities
I booked this accommodation to celebrate my partner's 30th birthday. Unfortunately, our arrival set a disappointing tone. Even though I clearly communicated that five people would be staying for the weekend—with one additional guest joining us for dinner on Friday—the host immediately began interrogating us about the guest count upon arrival. When I reiterated our plans, her terse remark, “OK, since you were honest.” as if I were trying to deceive her. This interaction was not only unprofessional but made us feel unwelcome and completely took away the celebratory spirit of my partner’s birthday. Additionally, the listing was misleading. Although it advertises that the property sleeps eight and is ideal for events of up to 30 people, key details were missing—a very small fridge, an extra charge for the sauna, and a kitchen that’s accessible only by passing through a bedroom. All in all, what could have been a special birthday getaway was marred by an off-putting first impression from the host. I hope the host takes this feedback to heart by ensuring that the listing details accurately reflect the amenities and layout, and by providing a friendlier, more accommodating welcome for guests.

Lake View Condo

We enjoyed our week in Halifax, and Caroline was a very gracious host. She was always available for any questions we had and check-in was easy. The property is lovely, with a view of the lake. It is very large, with lots of room for many guests. Although it had some updates, parts of the home were quite dated (kitchen) but it had an older charm that you don't get with newer builds. All in all, we enjoyed our stay very much.

Very old mattresses

I was dissapointed in the very old and worn mattress on both beds. Could literally feel the springs. Temperature in basement was 16 degrees celcius, and the termostat was turned off. We used the extra blankets that we found. The kitchen was also a dissapoinment as the only pot avaiable was dirty with remnants of lobster. I would recommend that the owner get some comfortable beds with newer bedding and hire a better cleaning staff. The place is beautiful, as is the lake. Just need to improve a bit.
