The home was spotless when we arrived, and everything was easy to find. Truly a 5 star stay! Had breakfast every morning watching the sun come up over the water while deer enjoyed the greenery by the water as well. The house is at the end of a private laneway at the end of Whynachts Point in a very quiet location. The local residence were very friendly and always waived when we drove by. There is grocery shopping and everything you need 5 minutes away, and fresh seafood right off the boat at Ryer Lobster 10 minutes down the road. Everything you want to see is within an hour drive from this central location.

This is a large, beautiful modern cottage on the water with lots of space. The cottage has three bedrooms; two are in lower level, which is bright with high ceilings and a walkout to the yard. The commute to downtown Halifax and to Peggy's Cove were easy and each took about 25 minutes. Note that there is no easy access to the water as there are no stairs or dock, and we did not see anyone swimming in the cove. We had great communication with the host, the WIFI was very good, and accommodations were comfortable. We very much enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.
