The water is safe to drink; however during a drought, the well water may have a slight yellow tint due to natural tannins in the soil. Guests should be attentive to the amount of water being used to prevent the well from running dry. Water is not to be used to wash cars or run a sprinkler. 14. Septic: The septic system is very effective; however, it will clog if improper material is flushed. DO NOT FLUSH anything other than toilet paper. No feminine products should be flushed at anytime. If it is found that feminine products have been flushed and clog the septic system, you could loose your damage deposit. 15. Storms: No refunds will be given for storms. The driveway is steep and the parking area has a tight turning area. The gravel driveway is well maintained; however, we highly recommend four wheel drive during the snow months. We do not refund due to road conditions.

Beautiful views, quiet area, close to Rose Bay Bistro and General Store, Lahave ferry, Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, Bridgewater. Loved the decor, the upstairs deck, the covered porch, outdoor showers.
We had a wonderful time at your property. The ocean views are amazing and the field of wild flowers was beautiful to look at while enjoying a cup of coffee or a cocktail. The outdoor shower was fantastic. Close to Lunenberg for touring or any other destination on the South Shore. Many thanks
We stayed for 3 days and 3 nights as part of our 20th anniversary trip to Nova Scotia, and it was everything we hoped it would be! Fantastic views, peaceful location and the Cabana had everything we needed. We had ‘happy hour’ followed by local seafood dinners on the rooftop every night, and a s’mores with a glass of wine by the fire.Easy drive to Lunenburg (which is a must) and a number of beaches (Sand Dollar was great).Many thanks to our hosts Jacqui and Andy for sharing their beautiful cabana!
This chalet has an amazing view and is located very close to a few beautiful beaches. Definitely recommended for couples who want to have a relaxing stay in Nova Scotia.
Lovely little house with all the amenities and more.
Perfect place to use as a home base to explore the south shore and beyond. Clean, cozy, quiet, views of the bay to enjoy from the rooftop patio and lovely little cove to visit and take a dip in the ocean.
Whitecaps Cabana was the perfect place for us to spend our week long trip in Nova Scotia! We enjoyed the daybed on the upper deck, the fire pit, the outdoor showers, and the massive comfortable bed. We would definitely stay here again. 😊
We really enjoyed our stay. It was the perfect place to getaway for a few day and very peaceful. Even if it rains you can sit and enjoy a book. The private beach is worth the trip down the stairs.
Thanks Andy and Jacqui,
We’ll definitely return.
Riverport is a great area, quiet, few tourists. Local marine
shop with endless supply of nautical artifacts is extremely interesting. Rose Bay store and restaurant is fantastic for supplies and fantastic local food.
We enjoyed our stay. Our only disappointment was the inside of the property is on the small side (e.g. the kitchen table needs to fold away to provide room to move around easily). The outside spaces are wonderful and we greatly enjoyed them.
White caps Cabana was amazing and everything we were looking for in a three night getaway. The accommodations were exactly as described, and the view was amazing! So much to see and do within a short drive. The private beach was beautiful and the warmest for swimming and long walks. We were fortunate to have great weather, campfires every night and some great stargazing. The Cabana has everything you need and more.
My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at this property. The weather wasn't the best, but we didn't mind at all. The property had everything we needed and can't wait to go back. The area has a lot to offer - take the ferry to the bakery, go to the many beaches, take a drive into Lunenburg, or just relax at the cottage.
