Close enough to spend the day in Lunenburg but rural enough to enjoy the peace and quiet.

I’m thinking this guest reviewed the wrong property cause I’m not even close to Lunenburg. I’m in a different province, but I appreciate their booking.

We loved our three days at Summer Retreat. We were extra impressed with all the thoughtful touches - plenty of pods for the coffee maker, tools for a lobster dinner, basic condiments for meals, etc. Great location for visiting the region, and all that Alma had to offer within easy walking distance. Highly recommended!

I’m so happy you found our quaint little quiet village and enjoyed your time here we have the best seafood in the world! No better place for unwinding, dining, hiking, or the best sleep with the sea air. So many local attractions within easy walking or driving distance.

We enjoyed our stay. The property is lovely. The beds were unbelievably comfortable!The house was well equipped. Our only issue was lack of reliable wi-fi and internet access. We were unable to watch tv or use our phones consistently. We would highly recommend the property.

Anne is a wonderful, considerate and accommodating host. We had a great stay and it was the perfect base camp to explore the Fundy national and provincial parks, St. Martins Sea Caves and Hopewell Rocks. We also tried the amazing shrimp, fish and lobster Anne had recommended at Collin's lobster shop and we were so impressed we went back 3 more times during our stay. I would most definitely book with Anne again next time we're exploring this beautiful area.

I appreciate your kind words. I’m just a message away if you have any questions or any concerns. Our sleepy little town really comes alive in the summer., plus no fundy park admission this summer is an added bonus, hope more people come to check us out. Whether you’re an hour away or a 10 hour plane ride, you’ll be happy you arrived

Only positives here: great natural environment in a rural town on the edge of a national park, some good restaurants, an array of experiences, great kitchen to support our home cooking, good communication with the host. Everything we needed in this quiet, comfortable home. The host covered all the bases—even Kleenex in every room and two porches at opposite ends of the house. The owners are still in the process of perfecting their remodeling, but they have great understanding of what is needed for a traveler to feel fully at home.

I agree this area has so many things to discover. Happy to hear you enjoyed the surrounding area and Fundy Ntl Park. We try to leave/renovate to what we hope others will enjoy. Thanks again for booking our location.

This home was wonderful. Lots of space. Beds were comfortable and squishy. The kitchen had every type of dish or container that you would need during your stay. The front deck was a nice upgrade from when I first booked. It offered a nice spot to rest at the end of the day, even when it was raining. Alma is a nice quiet village that offers you the ability ti watch the extreme tides right out the front door.

We enjoyed our time in this clean and well cared for house. The hosts really seem to care about you enjoying your stay. Easy access to Fundy National Park, and Hopewell Rocks is not far away. Internet and cell service was spotty during our trip, but otherwise no complaints from our family.

Firstly like to thank you for finding us and your stay. We try to keep the home updated and continue to do improvements which will help showcase our property and help you enjoy a better stay. New decks have been built for outside mingling or a cup of coffee and watch the hummingbirds. The cell Service can be limited in some areas and hope with time they will put up more cell towers for our use. Glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you come back to visit.
