Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Right from booking up until the day we checked-out, Tracy was extremely accommodating, helpful, and very kind! Arriving and checking into the cottage was simple, and we were blown away by all the welcoming little details when we arrived (flowers, decor, radio on, water and other goodies in the fridge). The cottage was stunning and we felt right at home instantly. The area around the cottage was also beautiful and was in a lovely community. Tracy was only a text away and was very easy to communicate with. If we needed anything, she was there to help - she truly cared to make sure we had the best experience possible. Can absolutely say this is the best rental experience I’ve had! It’s obvious the cottage is well loved and looked after by its owners and you will love it too. I can’t wait to visit again!

So many good thing to say! Cottage was exactly as described, owner is lovely and easy to communicate with. The layout was perfect for our needs, it was exceptionally clean and the owner really has thought of everything you could need. We loved breakfasts on the deck with ocean view and the private driveway and yard. Convenient location for all our day trips into the city, or to the beach for swimming and surfing. Highly recommended!

We loved the cottage, so comfortable and well-equipped with beautiful surrounding property and views. The bedrooms were well separated, which provides privacy in a small space. It looks just like the photos! The owner is wonderful and there were thoughtful touches like a pot of fresh basil.I

A little harbour gem!
A little harbour gem!
Cedar Cottage is straight out of a summertime novel. Everything was perfect, right from the warm welcome of the patio lanterns to the spectacular private hilltop view of charming Ketch Harbour and the ocean beyond. This quaint little cottage is within minutes of gorgeous Crystal Crescent Beach and endless trails for hiking or biking. There’s even a pretty little playground just down the road. It’s an easy picturesque drive into Halifax and all that the magnificent South Shore has to offer. We stayed here for May and June with our dog and two cats while quarantining and shopping for a property. Tracy is an exceptional host who goes out of her way to make sure that you feel at home…she is also an amazingly talented baker, who loves to share...bonus points! We enjoyed everything about our stay in Ketch Harbour. Highly recommend! 5 STARS!

Great location, cozy cottage and fantastic owners

A wonderful cottage with an ocean view a short distance from Halifax. A great location from which we enjoyed many day trips - Peggy's Cove, Lunenberg, Wolfville and of course to Halifax. A very comfortable and well equipped cottage. The owners were there to great us when we arrived and regularly checked in to see if we needed anything and provided some great local travel advice.
