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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

Kelly's place was awesome. It had all the room we needed for our family. Plenty of space to hang out, nice sunroom and outdoor furnishing on the deck. Kitchen is well equipped plus the BBQ on the deck. The kids fished off the dock. We kayaked in the cove. Beaches not far away. Kelly was always available to help when needed.

We were extended family, 6 adults, 2 teens and , a 5 and a 3 year old... Worked like a charm! Very clean and beautiful view. Exciting to watch the fishing boats leave in the morning (but you have to be up very early!) Beuatiful decks. Well equipped kitchens lots of room and close enough to other things (a bit far to a cofffee shop!) although everything seems to be a drive away (but kind of "off season") Host is very solicitous and available... HIghly recommended.

There are six of us girlfriends in our hiking group and it’s not easy to find comfortable accommodation for all of us on our hiking route. This house is amazing. 6 bedrooms with comfy beds and cosy bedding, 3 bathrooms, and two extremely well equipped kitchens. If that’s not enough, there is a view to die for!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with kids and grandkids as we celebrated our upcoming 30th wedding anniversary. It was an amazing view from the cottage which is situated at the head of the cove and looks out into St. Margaret's Bay! The host was exceptionally helpful and we would love to return someday! We'll definitely recommend this place to family and friends!

A great stay with Kelly right at the property. Very helpful

It was a great place to stay with a group or large family. We were a group of ten including 4 children between 4 & 8. They had so much fun running around in this huge house. We liked having the Granny sweet attached as it gave us 2 kitchens and that wonderful screen room for games. We were only 45 mins from most places we wanted to see and only 15 mins from Hubbards for groceries, booze and drugstore. Feast of local fish everyday. Enjoyed our stay, thanks so much Kelly. I’d go back again but we are thinking of going to PEI next time. The only reason I gave this spot a 4 is I feel the beds in the granny suite were much to hard. For the hole week my son and daughter-in-law ended up taking turns sleeping on sofa.

We had a small family reunion for 7 adults and the house was perfect. Plenty of space for everyone. Home was clean and tidy. The view from the deck was amazing. We spent a lot of time out there or in the Sun room off the kitchen when we were gone visiting the many small towns nearby. Found some yummy places to eat as well. My sister and niece found a couple hiking trails nearby the property. There were some fishing poles available and I caught a large haddock. There was fun for all of us. You won’t be disappointed if you stay here.

Perfect Setting

This house was exactly what we needed. With 13 of us, it can be hard to find a rental with enough space but this was the perfect house. I spoke with Kelly before making my reservation to make sure it would be okay for us to have a small birthday celebration while we were there and he seemed very happy and flexible. We all spent the weekend together and left feeling happy and refreshed. If you get a chance to stay here, I think you should absolutely take it!

An Overdue Family Gathering

An Overdue Family Gathering

Kelly's property was an ideal location for our group of 12. We also needed one level living to accommodate my mothers mobility. That, with the view and location, nearby walk on the beach and a spa day, made for a perfect weekend. The bonus was having a gracious host, Kelly, ready for any of our requests. His first attempt at sourdough bread was a lovely and unexpected additon to our meal. Five stars!
