We had a lovely time at this well-appointed home. We were close to a great hike at Gaff Point and could walk to Hirtle’s Beach as well. Everything was very clean and as it was very chilly the night we arrived, it was wonderful to be able to sit in front of a fire and warm up. The rest of the week was warmer and we especially loved sitting out in the screened porch. We would definitely stay here again.

The Writer's Retreat was a lovely spot to experience the wild beauty of the Riverport/ Upper Kingsburg area of Nova Scotia. The directions were patiently provided to drive to this house, which had a wonderful view of the water through the downward slope of the extensive lawn.Rabbits, deer, and even a badger were sighted while we were there! It was a comfortable house layout for 3 adults which provided 3 private bedrooms , and 2 bathrooms. A wood burning stove was an additional heating option, though we only used it a few times since the weather was Spring like through our stay in early June. The Rose Bay store was a convenient country store with a variety of foods to cook, as well as wine and cider to accompany them. There is also a restaurant on site to consider if the drive to Bridgewater,or Lunenberg for larger markets is not on the immediate schedule. We also enjoyed the views, beaches, and museums, just short drives away. There is a fun, brief ferry ride, while sitting comfortably in your own car as well. The house was clean and the pictures were accurate.A great choice to explore the region, just about an hour drive from Halifax!

Great Stay At Writer's Retreat
My wife and I had a wonderful week at this rustic and well appointed cottage in Upper Kingsburg. The place was clean, comfortable, and has a completely outfitted kitchen. Most importantly, the bed in the master bedroom slept well.
The location is gorgeous. The sound of the surf on Hirtle's Beach was a constant companion. The hike around Gaff Point is a must. The scenery is fantastic and the trail is moderate with some sections crisscrossed by tree roots. Stay safely back from the eroding cliff edges - if you're sensible you'll be fine.
If the fates allow it, we'll be back some day for another stay, without question!
PS. Don't miss having a meal at the Rosebay General Store. The lobster roll there is the best I've had anywhere.

Charming quiet cottage
Set in rolling hills with views and sounds of the sea and surf, this cozy, clean, well-equipped cottage deserves its many 5-star reviews . The master bedroom and the loft, each with a full bathroom, were perfect for two couples. There are two interesting paths to the beach. We delighted in the outdoor warm water shower for salt and sand removal and the spectacular dark sky views of stars and the Milky Way. Rosalie, a writer and university educator, was a pleasure to work with (her books are now on our reading list). We look forward to our next visit to Writer's Retreat. Thanks, Rosalie.

Wonderful Family Vacation!
We had a wonderful family vacation here! It was a great home base which allowed us to discover Nova Scotia's South Shore and location allowed day trips to Halifax and Peggy's Cove. Hirtle's Beach and Sand Dollar Beach were both convenient and lovely. It was clean and had lots of space for everyone! Owners were easy to communicate with and responsive to questions throughout our stay. It had everything we wanted and more!

Beautiful Rustic Cottage
Overall, this rustic cottage was a great place to stay. Daily walks to the beach were fabulous as was the beach itself. The walking paths to the beach might be challenging for some and it took a bit to find the access points. The screened in porch was nice and the southern exposure deck has a lovely view of the ocean. One of the bedrooms is an open loft area. It was definitely very private and relaxing with the sound of waves in the distance. Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic Spring break in upper KIngsberg
Authentic family holiday cottage. The house is very comfortable and full of character and personal touches. The view of the waves crashing against the rocks on Goff Point is spectacular. Hirtles Bay beach is a joy to walk along. Lots of wildlife -deer, porcupines, ospreys plunging into the bay to take fish! A wonderful place!

Great spot, as advertised
A wonderful place to get away from it all. The cottage came as advertised; very clean and well-stocked (a new vegetable peeler in the kitchen would be nice!). Location is wonderful for solitude and relaxation. Look out for deer - they are everywhere, and we came inches from hitting one in the fog one night. Rosalie (and Oliver) was very attentive to our needs, and responded very quickly whenever we had a query, like finding the key to get in.

beautiful and relaxing ocean view cottage
This is the second time we've stayed at Rosalie's cottage and we had a lovely time! The cottage is very clean and well-cared for. This is a lovely place to watch the ocean from a distance and relax in the Sun. Its a short walk or drive to Hirtle Beach (though you should look out for ticks if you do walk).
The only issue we had this trip was a leak coming through the roof during a very intense rainstorm. Rosalie was very responsive when we let her know and it sounds like it'll get all fixed up soon!
We would definitely stay again and recommend the cottage for others.
