Gotta See it to believe it!

So much space! Great beds and great kitchen! The view is spectacular! The bathrooms and the tub is great! We did day trips to tidal bores and burntcoat. Canning is a great town. This place is a little out of the way but so worth the drive. So beautiful and so private!

Scot’s Bay

Very nice cottage! For the most part everything was great! Just a couple things…could have used more than one t-towel. The fry pan was very hard to clean! However, booking, check in etc were all handled smoothly. A little further from amenities than we thought but ok. Beach was very rocky. Was a great place for our first & most likely last vacation to Nova Scotia! Scenery is beautiful when not foggy.

Hi Cynthia, Thank you for your feedback. We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your experience. We take every feedback seriously to improve our guests’ experience. We have steel pans (which are definitely hard to clean) because they’re environment and health friendly. However, we’ve added a non-stick pan per your suggestion, for convenience. There were atleast 5 t-towels in the drawer, if not more. I wish you had messaged me to ask. Staying for 5 nights with one towel would not have been easy :( We would love to host you again if you decide to visit Nova Scotia again :)

Belle et grande propriété mais un peu retiré des grands centres à notre avis.

Belle propriété situé sur le bord de l'eau de la baie de fundy. Pour le prix demandé, nous nous attendions à un peu plus de commodité et de propreté. Nous avons par exemple dû relaver l'ensemble des ustensiles de cuisine qui présentaient des restes d'aliments. Si votre but est de visiter la région immédiate, c'est ok mais sinon vous êtes un peu éloigné à notre avis. La propriétaire a été gentille, courtoise et disponible.
