The property is beautiful! Too bad it rained hard both nights or we would have been sitting on the dock enjoying the view. Inside the house and sitting house it was comfortable and relaxing. The open floor plan was perfect for our group. I'll definitely return here again.
This was unexpectedly a great place to spend a few days. We booked at the very last minute as a previous host was a scammer and stood us up the night before we were due.
It's on a very quiet lake and the description is entirely accurate. Peaceful and not too far away from grocery stores, liquor store and Digby - which has lots of amenities.
We were surprised it was available the day before we showed up. It shouldn;t have been! It's a great place to spend a few days .....

The location of this quaint home is lovely. The lake is beautiful. There are a few things to know before booking:It is very rusticThe water supply to the home is from the lake and can't be used for drinkingThe toilet paper can't be flushedThe water pressure for us was highly variable and the toilet tanks did not fill completely so we had to fill the tank before flushingShowering was impossible at times due to low water pressure and when we requested assistance , none was provided
