Nova Scotia’s North Shore Cottage

Hosts went over and above. Fresh bread, warm socks, many games, etc. The place was incredibly well equipped and stocked, like being at home.

We had a fantastic week at this gem of a spot on the Northumberland Strait. The kids loved combing the nearby beach for sea glass, shells, and other treasures and a sandy beach was also very close by where they enjoyed playing in the water and sand. The host was friendly and responsive to any questions we had, the place was very clean and well-organized, and the sour dough bread they left for us as a welcome gift was a lovely touch!

Flawless check-in, fully stocked kitchen, towels etc. Best stocked rental kitchen ever! The Host checked in appropriately...we didn't need a thing. Location was ideal, quiet, friendly neighbors and the best view ever from any seat. Will definitely return asap!

Cottage was great, with a perfect location and a good launching point to go explore Nova Scotia. Hosts were communicative and gracious - and even included a welcome treat when we arrived. The walk to the beach was short, and we watched the tide ebb and flow each day. Sunsets are magical, and even when the water was cold, the kids enjoyed strolling out into the bay.Highly recommended.

Wonderful location, wonderful cottage, and just an amazing experience. Can’t say enough about the beauty of the area, the charm of the cottage - complete with everything you might need for a fun stay, and the responsiveness and kindness of Jeanne - the owner. Also just two min drive from a beautiful sand beach as well as two seconds throw from an equally as beautiful rocky/sand mix beach. Highly highly recommend and we’ll be back!

We had a wonderful time at this property! It was perfectly situated with stunning views, and close proximity to the beach and amenities. Would definitely recommend and will book again!

5 stars for this cottage. We had a lovely stay here and our hosts were very welcoming. Great communication. They put in many special touches. No issues at all. Highly recommend this VRBO.

The host was fantastic! We were greeted with a fresh baked loaf of bread on the counter. The property was very clean and very inviting. The decor encouraged you to look with detail at everything in every room. A stones throw from the ocean and a quiet area. I would definitely recommend this stay to anyone looking to explore the area.

This was a cozy place to enjoy a quiet weekend with family. We enjoyed our stay over a long weekend.

Our expectations were high from the listing, and our stay exceeded them! This is a beautiful cottage in a great location by the ocean. In mid-March, it was very comfortable, and we were even able to use the deck. We were well stocked with any amenity that we could want, including a delicious loaf of sourdough bread that was waiting for us upon arrival, and it’s clear that a lot of thought has gone into the decor. Checking in and out was easy, and our host was helpful and responsive. Would definitely stay again.

This accommodation is lacking nothing. So perfect with all imaginable items needed for our stay. Loved everything about it.

If there was an option to select 12 out of 10, this is the place ! Jean was communicative, friendly and here oasis on the river is fantastic. My wife and I will be back as soon as time allows ! HIGHLY recommend this place.

We had a wonderful stay. Such a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Loved the beautiful homemade sourdough bread . We will definitely be back to make more great memories .

We had the best time at this sweet rustic cottage. There was everything there that you would ever need. All you need to take is your clothing and food. The cottage has a beautiful view of the ocean, beautiful setting areas. The beds were very comfortable. Our host contacted me before hand to give us perfect directions, and very easy to get into the house. Overall we had a great weekend and definitely hope to return. There was five of us so economically it was very affordable.

There was everything you needed to cook. If the weather would’ve been warmer we would love to have used the deck.

We enjoyed the cottage the property and the sunset

This is a great cottage and beautiful area in NS. Rushton Beach just down the street is a fantastic beach with very warm water. The communication with the owner was fantastic!

Wow! What a spectacular cottage. I travelled from Ontario to spend a week with my kids and grandkids, we really enjoyed our time here. The weather was perfect, the views of the ocean were awesome, a short walk along the beach we saw seals basking in the sun and swimming around. The sunsets were amazing every night! There front of the cottage is all windows so if you like to see the ocean there is no shortage of views but the very best view is waking up in the morning in the loft and looking at the ocean and the sky meld together. Priceless! The cottage had everything we needed including lots of comfortable seating areas especially the lounge chair on the roof top patio and the chaise lounge in the beautiful loft bedroom, my little oasis! The kitchen had everything we needed including lots of condiments and spices for cooking. We played lots of board games plus there were plenty of outdoor games as well to enjoy. We biked around the little dirt roads along the ocean and had fun meeting some of the really friendly neighbors. Our favorite spots were Blue Sea beach, Rushton Beach (2 min drive), Tatamagouche Train, Lismore farm and top of the list was the Country Bread Bakery in Brule Point Rd. Jeanne’s special SourDough bread was a lovely welcoming surprise and was delish!!! The communication with the host was excellent. 5 Stars ✨ doesn’t seem to be adequate so I give it 10 out of 5!

The checkin process was easy and the hosts were quick to respond to any questions. The property is beautiful and the location is perfect. Would stay again!

Loved the property. Quite homey everything you needed for a comfortable stay. Great communication with the host. Even got a loaf of homemade bread delivered.

Beautiful cottage, we enjoyed our stay ?

Wow !!! I came to town to handle some very emotionally charged issues and truly needed a peaceful , soul soothing place to call home for 4 days . From the moment I pulled into the driveway , I knew the place was going to be special . It was without a doubt , one of the best experiences I have ever had with vacation rental properties . The cottage exudes charm and warmth , the location is so perfectly situated to watch the sunrise or the sunset every day - there’s panoramic views of the straight from almost every square foot of this place . The locals were so hospitable and the neighbors directly across the road from the cottage were unbelievably kind and welcoming . Any basic supply, implement or comfort was provided by the very thoughtful host . A 3 minute drive net is a walk through the beautiful Rushton Beach area.! A 15 minute drive bright is to the sweetest little village of Tatamagouche - a 20 minute drive to a lavender farm- a 30 minute drive to a beautiful winery . I could live in this slice of heaven provided by Jeanne and John. Thank you so much for sharing your peaceful place with us . It was so special we had to dance the happy dance all around before we headed home (literally !!!!!)
