About this house rental

This is a beautiful, large, four bedroom, two full bathroom home. The property borders Whynaughts beach (sandy beach) on the Atlantic ocean and is 40 min from Halifax on Nova Scotia's South shore. It is surrounded by a vibrant community and immersed in local culture. The north border of the property is on "Rum Runners Trail", a scenic 107 km groomed trail (ideal for biking, walking, four wheeling, or snowmobiling) stretching from Halifax to the town of Lunenburg. Peggy's Cove, and other scenic drives and sites, are located close by giving you an experience of quintessential Nova Scotia life.

The home has four large bedrooms (with generous closet space and drawers). The morning views from the two front upstairs bedrooms are spectacular as you watch the local fishing boats go to work. It has a very large, fully equipped kitchen. It also has a spacious living room with ample lounging areas and the views are AMAZING! It is ideal for either single family or multiple families. A full size washer and dryer is located in the upstairs bathroom.

There is also large deck in the back. A coffee bar complete with a Keurig and coffee maker is located in the dining room.

The home comes equipped with a portable child's crib and high chair if requested. Air conditioning is located in each room (except the children's room due to fire code regulations) as well as the downstairs living space. Internet ready 4K TV, wifi, cable, Netflix, and a landline (local calls only) are provided. The home has great cell phone reception.

Five retired ladies on our 24th year of w/ends away and have to say this was one of the best! The house is stocked with everything you need for your stay and the ocean directly across the street is a game changer! We went to two beaches in the area and a lovely market just down the street on Sat. Our group will definitely rent this property again, the hosts were excellent with their communication and answering any questions we had.

Great stay for friends and families A beautiful home that is so well decorated with the beach theme. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The host has thought of so many tiny little things to make your stay comfortable. The view from the front door is so magnificent and unreal. We used the bbq as well and enjoyed our time visiting nearby towns. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable and we used the many amenities that came with the house. We were two families and the kids had a fun time at the beach. The place is truly a gem. I highly recommended this place.

We absolutely LOVED this cottage. It is very spacious, clean, well appointed with everything you could need, including beach towels and chairs! I reached out to the owners several times and they responded very quickly. The location is heavenly - right across the street from a beech. We were four adults and four kids. There was a swing for them to play on and lots of deck space for them to spread out on. My husband really enjoyed the selection of books and read three in just one week. I can't say enough good about this cottage!

Doug and Kelly’s home in Queensland was lovely. It is very clean and brightly decorated. All the bedrooms were large and comfortable. It was great for the rooms to have their own Lenox heating/cooling system for individual comfort. The bathroom was generously supplied with beautiful towels and convenient laundry facilities. They were wonderful hosts, understanding of our delayed arrival due to the IT outage, and responsive to our questions and needs. It is very conveniently located to Halifax one way and Lunenborg and Peggy’s Cove the other way. There were 7 of us in our group and it was very comfortable. We would be happy to stay again if we return to Nova Scotia.

As soon as I walked through the door, I wished our stay was for much longer. Not only is the location excellent, but the care, cleanliness, and comfort of the home was beyond our expectations. There was something for everyone here. We would definitely love to make a return visit one day. Thank you to the wonderful hosts!

Over-all the property was clean and well appointed. The owners have decorated the cottage with very tasteful yet homey maritime theme items. They have also done a very good job of thinking of every little thing a renter could use when staying there. We were very impressed by the quality of the provided equipment, appliances and dishes etc were all good quality and working well. We also appreciated the inclusion items that are difficult to bring along when flying (which we did) , bulky items like beach towels, coolers and beach chairs were all provided which made the trips to the beach very comfortable. The adjacent beach was very nice and it was a 3 minute drive to Queensland beach. We have loved this area for years and staying at this property made it even more enjoyable. We also appreciated the nod to environmental responsibility by providing a good-sized recycling container and reusable Keurig coffee pods. Our only issue with the trip was that we couldn't stay longer.
