    The house was on water with boat dock and had kayaks, life jackets, etc available. Beautiful sunsets and gorgeous mornings on the water. Loved the location and loved the house. Kitchen was well equipped. We were all over 75 years old and had to be careful on the stairs. Melissa was easy to work with and helpful. We all agreed that it was a great time and were sorry to leave!

    We had such a good stay at this location. It’s right on the water, unbelievable views as a dock if you want to go swimming, paddle boarding or canoeing.Not far from Halifax and very close to Lunenberg. Can’t say enough about Melissa. They were very accommodating, even though we had some changes leading up to the trip.I would certainly recommend this for a family.

    This beautiful property in Chester Basin was the perfect place to relax and enjoy a family vacation. We particularly enjoyed the back deck and boat dock which allowed us to explore Mahone Bay in our motor boat. The Sea Shanty restaurant, a 2 minute boat ride away, was a highlight. Minutes from Chester with all the amenities, this is the perfect holiday answer.

    The view from Three Sheeps is simply stunning! The cottage provided us with ample room for six adults and the owner was fantastic to deal with. There seem to be many updates that have been or are happening. Only issue that we had was water pressure but I am most certain that is just the area and was not unbearable. The deck out outside surroundings are absolutely stunning! Was such a great stay!!
