Great place to stay while visiting Nova Scotia
Lots of amenities. Owners very helpful in recommending local restaurants. Enjoyed finding mussels and sea glass on the little beach as well as the antics of the "rock" beavers. The heated pool was a plus. Absolutely wonderful views of the bay.

We gathered with grandchildren and partners to celebrate our mothers birthday. We were impressed by the overall design and features of the layout, views, pool, and kitchen. These were enhanced by all the details, the thoughtful extra supplies, the cleanliness, incredibly well equipped kitchen and the responsiveness and helpfulness of our hosts. Highly recommended!

This was our second visit to the Land Yacht. We were very excited to stay again and we felt right at home! We pre planned our meals and the house was equipped with everything we needed to prep and cook.We love the new layout of the living area with the seating located in front of the fireplace- it makes a cozy area! We spent most of our time between the pool and playing cards or making puzzles. Everything is beautiful at the Land Yacht!

Wonderful Experience!
The Land Yacht was spacious, comfortable, well furnished and had a great view of the bay especially from the solarium. The kitchen had everything you would need and then some. Our pluses included kayaking, bicycling and swimming in the pool and the bay. Bring your bikes and snorkeling gear. The host, Thomas (pardon me, the Captain as you’ll learn!), was friendly, helpful, paid attention to detail and close by if needed. The location was ideal for day trips to Halifax, Lunenburg, Peggy’s Cove, Bay of Fundy, etc. Our stay was relaxed and refreshing. We highly recommend a stay at the Yacht.

We absolutely adored the Land yacht and definitely will be returning. Watching the sea from the solarium was the highlight. Between kayaking with the seals and watching the harbour porpoises swim and play, this is the place to be. 20 minute drive to Halifax and Peggy's cove and back home after a day of site seeing to relax in the indoor salt pool. 11 of us enjoyed every minute. Thank you again for having us Captain!

Canada Day weekend
This property and space are beautiful! Very well kept and lots of nautical details. It was perfect for a weekend getaway with friends. The place has everything you need. We brought too much stuff that was not necessary. Thomas and Melanie have thought of everything. Lots of towels, bedding, paper towel and toilet paper, garbage bags, recycling bags as well as all the essentials needed to cook in the kitchen and on the bbq. Lots of propane! You don’t need to pack any household items.
The garage is also equipped with everything you need for outside fun! A dozen lawn chairs, life jackets of all sizes, roasting sticks for the camp fire, as well as unlimited firewood! The kayaks fit two people each and they have three! For lawn games they had a high end ladder ball set and we just brought our own washer toss. Check out the amenities list!
Just an fyi that the description of the lay out of rooms downstairs explains that you need to walk through the state room to get to the other room but there are many doors to access both rooms from outside without having to pass through an occupied room.
Oh and the mosquitos and black flies were not bad at all! You get a cool breeze from the ocean at night so you hardly see any, very minimal. I brought citronella candles that I did not even open!
Also to note for those sun addicts, they get sun all day and the back side of the land yacht is shielded from the wind!
Highly recommend! We had an amazing stay!
Thanks to the Land Yacht!

We thoroughly enjoyed our extended family vacation at the land yacht! We had a larger group and found that we had plenty of space. The pool was a big hit with the kids and the solarium was a favourite spot for drinking morning coffees. The space was clean, beds were comfortable and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. We found sea glass on the beaches and there is convenient access to the trail system across the road. Can't wait to come back!

The Land Yacht is fabulous for our group of 13. The view is second to none. So bright and spacious.
This was our second stay. Overall pleased with how well stocked the house is. The owners have thought of pretty much everything. (Couldn’t find a wire whisk) lol. The only down side is the water pressure. I don’t remember it being quite as low last year but for a long weekend the positives far out weigh the negative. One of our favourite places to have our winter getaway. Thank you once again for being so accommodating.
