We had a wonderful time staying in this beach house right on the ocean. The house was spotless and the location was perfect. We had a fantastic holiday and hope to come back again. Thank you Egon and Patty! Ann and Geoff, Mississauga, Ontario

Awesome property on the St Margret bay. An easy drive to Halifax, Peggy’s Cove and Lunenburg. Owners were super accommodating and home was well stocked. The grass hill down from the parking was a bit of a hike to carry everything in and out. But once there it was lovely rain and shine.

Great hosts with beautiful local and lots of helpful recs

This is the most amazing property we’ve ever visited. It sits right on the water and offers gorgeous views. Whether it’s cloudy, sunny, rainy, every day offers a different spectacular scene. There’s so much to watch. We spent hours every morning just sitting on the deck over the water. The house itself is very clean and very, very well maintained. It has a top notch heating/ac/dehumidifier system so inside is always comfortable and clean. It has everything you could possibly need. There’s even a water cooler with an extra bottle which was so convenient for filling water bottles for hikes. Egon and Party have done a wonderful job decorating and making use of the space. It’s a studio house, but each section feels very separate- a very clever layout. There are three kayaks so no need to rent. The area is perfect for setting in a kayak easily. The property is conveniently located to so many different areas for exploring—not far from Halifax, Mahone Bay, Peggy’s Cove etc. We especially enjoyed the Gaff Trail on Hirtle’s Beach near Lunenburg. There is so much to do but honestly, we would have been perfectly content to stay all day at the house. Patty and Egon were the absolute best hosts. Responsive to questions, so welcoming and just very genuinely kind people. I can’t rate this experience highly enough. We will be back every year!

We had a great stay - little beach beside the cottage was wonderful and the cottage itself was very cozy and eclectic…. Patty was great to deal with and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Even saw some pilot whales!

The cottage was great for my wife and I. It might be a bit small for a family. Great porch on the water. Perfect place to relax. Egon was the perfect host.

We absolutely loved our whole stay. The location is fabulous- idyllic setting with beautiful views yet very close to Halifax. Egon was extremely helpful and kind. The cottage has everything you need and then some. Enjoyed swimming and kayaking. Beat all our expectations. Can’t wait to come back!

Our time from the moment we arrived until our goodbyes to this beautiful area of Nova Scotia could not have been improved upon. Our wonderful host Egon, (Patty was away) , made sure our time and experiences were memorable. The house, private beach, kayaks and daily adventures to all the best the province could offer were ideal. We cannot say enough and know if you are looking for a true waterfront location with proximity to memorable destinations this is the place to be. The Rush family

What a great stay! They have added so many thoughtful touches like a punching bag and gloves, video games, movies, kayaks, fishing rods Etc etc. nice appliances, beautiful bathroom, super funky cottage! The private beach was AMAZING! Water is crystal clear, all the paper, kindling and dry firewood you could ask for! We loved having fires on the beach. The host is super responsive and helpful. It’s a beautiful, comfortable place to stay and is a great jumping off point for many sightseeing adventures. Cannot recommend this place enough. Kudos to the hosts for an exceptional experience!

If you want great hosts, oceanfront living at its finest and your own private beach then stop looking this is the place. Thank you Egon & Patty looking forward to next time.

What a beautiful property and super-cute home! We enjoyed everything about our stay at Egon and Patty’s home - excellent communications, clean, well-equipped home, and fantastic outdoor spaces to watch the birds on the water. The location was convenient to take day trips to Halifax, Peggy’s Cove and Lunenburg. We highly recommend visiting this gem!

We rented Egon and Patty’s beautiful house for one week in October. It was a fantastic week of weather and amazing sunrises and the house is exactly as described. Located not too far from everything but just out of the way of the busy places. The house literally sits on the water and has its own private and pristine sand beach where you can just watch life go by - the loons, the tides, the ducks and the odd sailboat! We brought our two dogs and they were in heaven. The house is fully stocked and there is an outside patio to enjoy a glass of wine in the early evening with a fireplace. Equipment is first grade, especially the glass bottom kayak which is wonderful to tour the bay. Egon and Patty were fantastic hosts and attentive to all needs. We highly recommend this VRBO. A wonderful rental. Thank you again Egon and Patty. K & F.

Location is wonderful. The cottage is a dream. Cleanliness is impeccable. The host Egon is helpful, very friendly and attentive. Perfect stay!!!

We went to Nova Scotia number of times and each time we rented a property. This one is above all else. The location is magnificent, right on the ocean, literally! It has it's own private beach. The house is spacious with well defined sleeping zones, beautifully decorated. If the weather is not cooperating there is plenty to do in the house, great TV, DVDs, video games and regular family games and puzzles. There is also an exercise area within the house with pull up bars, ropes and yoga mat. There are 4 kayaks available with life vests, even for our dog! The house is absolutely spotless, clean beyond compare. And lastly, our hosts were so welcoming. Egon was always a text away if we needed anything. We felt right at home, wonderful place indeed! Thank you Egon and Patty!!

Amazing cute cottage on the water, private beach, lots of toys, fully equipped, super clean and great hosts! Great location- near to grocery store, drug store, golf. But you will want to stay at the cottage as it is ideal for a relaxing and fun getaway. Egon is the best host, lots of ideas and there if/when you need him!

We absolutely loved our stay here! Egon and Patty have thought of everything for a relaxing vacation. We enjoyed the spacious and airy accommodations, the lovely beach, deck and pergola as well as all of the indoor and outdoor toys. Egon went out of his way to make sure we were looked after everyday, and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed snorkelling with the hermit crabs and lobster!

My family and I had an amazing time at this cottage. My kids loved the sandy beach and the evening camp fires. The cottage is situated almost right on the water which makes for spectacular views. It is very clean and nicely decorated. Thanks Egon for being a great host!

If you want to enjoy a little bit of paradise, rent this property. Perfect location, great cottage for upto 4 people, pet friendly, super clean, tons of things that you can do there. We really love our stay. I can't think of anything to complain about it.

Our family had a wonderful 2 week vacation at this beautiful property situated right on the water with a beautiful beach and amazing sunrises! We loved kayaking too, on St. Margaret's Bay and will definitely return. Our hosts Egon and Patty made us feel so welcome!

The week we spent at this amazing property was so relaxing. The views were spectacular from the sunrise on the deck enjoying our morning coffee, to the evening sunsets having a glass of wine at the fire pit. Egon was an amazing host, always ensuring we had everything we needed to feel at home.. He was great at recommending places to bike ride to and areas to visit.We were also fortunate to have seen the Bluenose sail by while we were enjoying a relaxing afternoon on the water.

We had a fantastic experience here with two young kids. The private beach was beautiful and so convenient for a young family. Can’t wait to go back!
