It is with heavy hearts that we write this review. Having rented dozens of VRBO homes & always giving positive reviews, we can’t do that this time. We’ve always thoroughly enjoyed our travels to the Maritimes: the people, their honestly, the welcoming atmosphere have been a huge draw. Unfortunately, would could be a “million dollar view” is ruined by the fact that almost all windows seals are broken, resulting in condensation. A previous renter mentioned the traffic out front. It is a busy highway. We would not have allowed our children to walk down to the beach. The lack of communication resulted in servicemen coming without any notice to us. Kathy ( the owner from Ontario) seems to have a very full plate. Having a rental property means you have to deliver as promised, without excuses. We ran out of propane for the BBQ. There were 3 tanks under the deck, all empty. The home itself is comfortable & nicely decorated. The area around Hubbard is awesome. The drive along the shoreline, numerous unique shops & excellent restaurants were a pleasure. Highly recommend Tuna Blue in Hubbards. There is a huge amount of promise in this property.

What a beautiful spot for my wife and I to stay. The owners were very accommodating and friendly. We enjoyed everyday visiting family and friends and could not have picked a better place to have done it.

Our family really enjoyed our time here! The kitchen is very well equipped, as other reviewers note as well, which makes cooking easy and stress-free. The deck is large with stunning views of St. Margaret’s bay. You can even see Peggy’s Cove lighthouse in the far distance. The photos of the cottage accurately depict the property and it was exactly what we expected. The town of Hubbards is 5-minutes away, with great restaurants (recommend the Shore Club!) and well stocked grocery store. We enjoyed days trips to different beaches nearby, dinners on the spacious deck, s’mores at the fire pit in front and TV on the large screen TV in the cottage. One thing that was different than we expected was the highway right in front of the cottage. On a map, it seemed like a small, quiet, rural road, but in real life it’s a busy highway with lots of traffic. We had to be very careful walking to Fox Point beach just down the road. Something to bear in-mind for families with very young children; the front yard is right next to this busy highway.

When we booked, the listing showed an occupancy of up to 8. However, Kathy insisted that it could only hold 6. Thankfully, we only needed beds for six. As of the date of this review, the property still shows an occupancy of 8. When we arrived, Guy was there at the property and we were able to use the lockbox and retrieve the key. A digital keypad would be better. We asked about the wifi password, which we eventually got. There was no information sheet listing house rules, check-out time, wifi password, etc. This is pretty standard in every other house we've rented. The house was fairly clean, but the grill was dirty. The next evening, Guy brought over two cooked lobsters. Very kind! One odd thing about the rental is that it shares a driveway with the house next door, where Guy and his construction crew were living. We were always able to get in and out, but it was tight sometimes. In short, the location, view, and property amenities were wonderful. I just think that Guy and Kathy have a lot on their plates right now, and it resulted in a lack of good communication. I wish them nothing but the best in their business ventures. They are both kind and generous individuals.

We spent seven weeks at this beautiful beach house. Great location! Short walk to the beach, short drive to some very sweet villages. Kitchen has lots of what you need to cook up some nice meals. BBQ needs a bit of work and a new bed in the master bedroom would be a big plus. Overall, this is an amazing spot to enjoy the summer. Thanks Kathy and Guy!

Beautiful location with a well maintained place steps from the ocean. All the amenities for a prolonged stay were there. The ocean waves were extremely soothing for amazing sleeps at night. Truly a gorgeous spot!
