Outdoor smoking is okay — just please dispose of cigarette butts properly. • Check-in 3pm and check-out is 11am but are flexible whenever possible — just let us know your needs in advance. • The bathroom in the basement uses up-flush pump so it is normal to hear a sound pump while flushing/using sink/shower (Please consider this upon booking). • For safety and security reasons, reservations must be made by the person who will be staying at the property.

We stayed 2 weeks at this quaint little place. The host was very communicative, and pleasant. We had all the amenities we needed, and it was handy having a washer/dryer for visiting as long as we did. We really enjoyed our 2 week stay and would definitely go back if we ever needed to! Absolutely recommended!

Hoast was very accommodating.
Property was very clean!
Basemen suite, so very musty smelling. Back yard access, so suggest they keep it cleaned up, and cut down on the weeds.Every other property rentals, previous tenant food items frozen or canned would be left behind for next tenant, which was such a nice idea. Even ice in the freezer. Absolutely nothing kept at this property. Owner had some available forgotten travel necessities, packaged food items, even bottled at the property, with a list of the price of each item for us to leave cash on the counter for them. We didn’t mind, but thought this was unusual. Therefore, no tip.

Thank you for your feedback and for choosing to stay with us.
We would like to clarify a few points for future guests. For health and safety reasons, we do not leave food items behind from previous guests, as we cannot verify their condition once they have been opened or left unattended. We do, however, provide complimentary essentials such as coffee, cream, sugar, spices, ice, and basic toiletries.
We also offer a small honesty shop with brand-new, unopened items available for purchase. These products are provided as a convenience for guests who may have forgotten something and need it right away. All items are sold at their regular retail price.
Our basement suite is also quite new, having welcomed guests since November 2025. We are continually making improvements to both the suite and the property to enhance our guests' experience.
As for the garden and outdoor spaces, we work hard to keep them clean and well maintained. Since winter in Nova Scotia has only recently ended, we are currently planting and preparing for the summer season. The flowers and landscaping are still growing and will become more vibrant as the season progresses. Like many homeowners in our region, we work with the weather and continue improving the yard whenever conditions allow.
Thank you again for your comments. We truly appreciate all feedback and remain committed to providing a clean, comfortable, and welcoming stay for every guest.
