Ketch Harbour

Our host was lovely. She provided suggestions that we appreciated. The place was clean and the beds comfortable. The kitchen and bedrooms are upstairs which was fine with us, but may not be for some. The kitchen area and fridge are small which posed a bit of a challenge because there were five of us.

Why they chose this property

The accommoadtion and Ketch harbour area is great for getaways.... It is close to the ocean/harbour views, close to the famous Crystal Crescent Beach, yet close enough to Halifax and other shopping areas and places of interest. We are based on the Sambro loop which has many trails, and experiences to offer. Other popular areas of interest such as Peggys cove, Lunenburg, Chester and Mahone Bay can be visited by car. You can relax and enjoy the ocean views, large garden, BBQ and stroll down to the newly rebuilt public wharf. We have had numerous birds visit us including Humming birds. There is something for everyone!
