Outstanding experience

Scott’s place was the perfect anchor for us to explore so much of Nova Scotia. We are all from California and there was so much to see and appreciate. The country was amazing, And Scott was the best host possible. We asked him about firewood, and he showed up that day and chopped some more for us. The house couldn’t have been more welcoming, functional or beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful time.

Magnificent Cottage!

The panoramic view of the water is magnificent! We got to see a rare rainbow and the moment the rainbow appeared a ruby throated hummingbird appeared next to us on the upper deck! We loved having breakfast, lunch and dinner, reading books and playing Scrabble on the deck right outside the kitchen. We could watch the great blue herons and the ospreys fish and frolic in the waters around the cottage! Scott and Nettie were so warm and welcoming and answered all of our questions! They made great recommendations for local restaurants, bakeries and farmer's markets. Thanks so much for your kindness and thoughtfulness!

The property is absolutely lovely and exceptionally well equipped. The beds were comfy and the house very clean. Amenities are a stone’s throw away (groceries, liquor store, hardware), which is always handy for that last minute need. The host is extremely responsive and kind. Would love to stay again!

Exactly as described!

We really enjoyed our stay at Cottage Cove! The view was amazing as was the deck and gazebo to enjoy it from! The house was fresh, super clean and equipped with everything we needed! We launched our own boat and enjoyed exploring the coves! Due to the weather we didn’t get to enjoy the fire pit or the kayaks but we made good use of the TV and all of the movies! We had 3 kids under 8 who enjoyed the large lawn and the big rocks! Thank you so much for sharing your little piece of paradise with us!

We had such a wonderful time at this beautiful home on the water. It was so clean and comfortable, we were able to relax and enjoy each others company. The location was great, very close to many places yet quiet and private overlooking the water. The host was great at communicating and getting right back to a ll our questions. They put a lot of thought into all the extra touches, it really made us feel welcome on this vacation. We would definitely like to return!

Fantastic family vacation

The house is located right on the water with awesome views. Property was very clean and Scott was great to deal with. Kayaks are an extra bonus which our family has a blast using them. The porch area outside is great for some relaxation and board games with the family. Would definitely recommend the rental property and will look forward to stay there again in the future.

Super clean and right on the fjord

The house was very clean and well appointed. All needed accessories in bedrooms, baths, and kitchen were available. It is 45 minutes northeast of Halifax so is central to the island if folks want to tour the whole island from one homebase. This does result in long driving days but it works. It is very close to the main northeast coastal road Trunk 7. This made it easy to find but also means road noise can be heard from the upstairs master bedroom. Downstairs rooms do not hear the road. It rained our whole stay and we were not able to enjoy the deck so we enjoyed the foggy view from inside. Fog or sun, the water view is interesting.
