Our only issue was the use of strong scent to wash sheets. So strong we had to wash them before we could sleep

Hi Pauline, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad this was the only concern during your stay. We understand that preferences around scents can vary from guest to guest, and we appreciate you letting us know that the fragrance on the linens was stronger than what you prefer. We’ll certainly keep your feedback in mind as we review our laundry products and processes. Thank you again for staying with us and for sharing your experience. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.

Great location. Easy drive over to Oak Island, Mahone Bay & Lunenburg. The house is large with so many different spaces and amenities to enjoy. Great for couples. Great for large families. Great for a Girls Trip. Beautiful views of the bay with boats. Easy checkout process, only asked to separate and remove garbage. Absolutely recommend and will stay here again.
