This property was perfect for our needs. It is within a short driving distance to all of the sights in the area. Kelly was very easy to communicate with us and he helped us cook up our own lobster dinner. It is a peaceful place that is right on the ocean. I would definitely recommend his place for anyone staying in the area as a home base for all the activities in the area or just to relax. Our only regret was we didn’t stay longer.

Great view and Great space!

We were 8 golfers looking for a location that would provide us with lots of sleeping options, kitchen facilities and outdoor space to enjoy at the end of the day! This location was perfect! Kelly is an excellent host and made sure we had everything we needed. He was easy to contact and respectful of our space. It was our second stay at this location and we would not hesitate to return.

Would be happy to return to this rental.

A family of 8 adults and 1 toddler. Plenty of room particularly for the toddler and his parents having the almost separate apartment. We could be noisy late into the evening in the main family room and not disturb the toddler sleeping. Wifi was good, view was beautiful, deck and lovely closed sunroom to enjoy away from wind and cool if needed. Close enough to Halifax that family came and went easily. Kelly very attentive to any requests or needs. Very happy with the time we had there. Highly recommend.

Amazing Family Vacation

Fantastic property for a family vacation. Comfortably accommodated our family of 8 adults and 6 children. Amazing views from the sunroom, which is where we spent most of our time. Kids have a blast catching mackerel from the dock. Location great for day trips and within 15 minutes of 3 beautiful beaches. Kelly is an amazing host.

Great place for family funa

Our family of 12 had ample room in this fantastic home. With 2 kitchens, huge bedrooms, and a great dock to jump off, it's the ideal launching spot for a family vacation. The host is attentive and a great help if you want to get to know the area. I highly recommend it if you are travelling with a large group.

Private ocean cove retreat

The location in the heart of the Northwest Cove was perfect. The house is setup to accommodate any type of family or group. The house was equipped with everything we needed. The host Kelly was awesome from check in to check out he was always available if needed and was a delight to deal with. I would definitely recommend this rental to anyway looking for a central spot on the south shore of Nova Scotia.

Great location and so much room!

This rental has so much room: sitting areas, beds and bathrooms. Beds were very comfy. On a quaint fishing cove. Sunrises are epic! Tons of deck space and outdoor seating. Location is perfect for exploring Lunenburg, Mahone Bay and Halifax. Kelly is wonderful - very helpful and easy to reach if needed! FYI - only 1 channel available on one of the TVs. If you don’t watch TV in the evenings, then it won’t be a bother. We missed having a TV for our evenings once the sun set. Keep this place in mind if you have a group that needs lodging in this beautiful area!

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

the most photographed view in Lunenburg County,this property is very close to home and absolutely wonderful to visit.The sounds of the fishing boats and gulls swirling in the air, the quiet evenings and spaciousness of the interior were major motivators in the purchasing of this property. At first it seemed daunting. Originally the site of a small 'fishstore'(that is a hut on the water that fishermen stored nets and made bouys/floats etc during the cold winter days) it was added on to over the years and used as a small fishplant before our acquisition The large apartment was built before we purchased and we added the second apartment a year later. We recognize that it is difficult for large groups to find accommodations suitable for families, etc and thought that this would be a good place for that. It is large and therefore everyone can find a space of their own. Although...........most people park in the sunroom and spend hours looking out at the cove.

What makes this property unique

A lot of travellers like a home base to return to after their day away. This is that place.Just about everything to see in Southshore NS is within 45 min.travel and there is nothing more scenic than our view.You can stroll over to the Gov't dock and watch the fishermen bring in their catch or just ask our neighbors of the availability for fresh fish for supper. We have a lobster pot and boiler for lobster boils and a bar b que for hanging on the deck. There is a beautiful beach 4 miles away that is super for children and also a picnic beach just a mile away in Southwest Cove. We have good friends who run an adventure tourism business and they will bring kayaks to our dock if you wish to rent. There is a yoga loft 2 miles away with drop in classes nearly every day. There is a great little market Sat mornings in Hubbards and a great cafe 'The Trellis' where you can relax and eat some good food.Golf at Chester, a quick 30 min. drive offers some of the most spectacular ocean scenery you have ever seen at a golf course and there is a couple pubs and shops there as well.As we live so close by we are always ready to take care of our guest's requests. We have life jackets for the kids safety on the docks and if you can brave the temperatures can swim right off the dock.I'd never want to leave if I was vacationing here. It truly is a place to unwind and relax.
