Stayed Aug 9, 2025The home was lovely and filled with beautiful art. The description of the property was very accurate. Due to the lack of rain in NS this summer, we had to be careful about water usage because the home has a well. There were only 4 of us but it could have been an issue if we had more people. Our hosts were lovely people. The location was more remote than I expected but it’s not far from Antigonish. The mosquitos were a problem for us, especially in the morning and at dusk. The hosts had mosquito repellents available for us to use. Overall we had a nice stay.

Stayed Jul 12, 2025My family and I stayed for a week. The property was fantastic. He had a wonderful and relaxing time here. Tiiu was an amazing host, she went above and beyond, doing a lobster dinner for us. The dinner and location could not have been better.One of our top vacations for sure.

Stayed Jun 27, 2025Tiiu and Hugh were so exceptionally warm and truly made the experience more magical than just a property. We travelled with young kids - the rock beach was perfect for exploring - the kids loved finding treasures of oyster shells and crab claws. Tiiu was highly responsive to any questions and swiftly solved any problems that arose. This place will stay close in our hearts!

Stayed Sep 10, 2024I can’t say enough about this property and the owners. Hugh was most accommodating and the property is very well appointed and very comfortable. If you want a quiet relaxing place to get away. This is it!

Stayed Aug 5, 2024The cottage was better than described and a joy to enjoy. It is in the countryside beside water but close enough to a city for the conveniences needed.

Stayed Jul 6, 2024After driving 10+ hrs through a torrential rain storm, the house was warm and welcoming with lights lit. Beautifully appointed! The location is absolutely breathtaking. Tiiu could not have been more accommodating throughout our stay. The house was well stocked. A great central location to explore the highlands of Nova Scotia. Oh yes, those pesky mosquitoes!
