    Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber und süß eingerichtet, alle Zimmer (insbesondere die Küche) sind super ausgestattet. Die Vermieter waren sehr hilfsbereit. Wir hatten zwar keinen persönlichen Kontakt, aber sie haben an alles gedacht und reagierten bei Fragen immer sofort.Der Whirlpool war herrlich; selbst an Sommerabenden zu genießen.Von der großzügigen breiten und schönen Veranda hat man einen tollen Blick auf die Bay und kann den Tidenhub gut beobachten. Wir können diese Cottage sehr empfehlen!

    Yvonne and Clinton's cottage is a gem of a place. It's super cute, spotless, and has the most well-equipped kitchen I have ever seen in an AirBnB/VRBO. The king-size bed is so comfortable and the ceiling fans and AC keep everything nice and cool. Sitting out on the covered porch every morning drinking our coffee and watching the hummingbirds stop for a drink from the feeder hanging on the porch, and watching the tide come in or go out was the most peaceful part of our vacation. Of course the hot tub is amazing!The location is remote - down a quiet dirt road with other cottage-type houses around and it's very quiet and relaxing. A good thing to note is that while you are right on the beach, this is an exploring beach, not a swimming and relaxing on the sand beach. It's very thick red clay and is beautiful, but if you want a more traditional beach, you can drive about an hour to the Northumberland straight beaches near Tatamagouche and Pictou. Totally worth the drive!It's also half hour from Five Islands which has a more swimmable beach and lovely hikes. Would highly recommend checking it out as it's a beautiful place.Masstown Market is a very well-equipped grocery store, with an upscale butcher, a fish market and a cafe and it's 20 minutes from the cottage so you have everything you need for meals at home within a 20 minute drive. Yvonne was lovely and provided lots of tips and was the most responsive host I've ever communicated with! Would highly recommend!

    Thank you Yvonne & Clinton for a truly wonderful stay! Your cabin is a gem, the location is stunning, the views never got old, and the interiors are beautifully done. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and settle in comfortably. A special mention for the board games, we hadn't played Sequence or Monopoly as a family in years, and after long days of exploring Nova Scotia it was the perfect way to wind down together. We made some great memories here and would love to come back. Highly recommended!
