Splendid Vacation spot

We had a wonderful stay. The property exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of room for the family to be together and to have some quiet time when needed. The lake was great for swimming and catching frogs. Our hostess was easy to communicate with and cared about our comfort. We can't wait to stay again next year.

Lovely, tranquil stay on a beautiful Big Lake.

The home was nicely appointed and ready for our visit. Gorgeous views from all decks and swimming platform. Only surprise was the septic system's inability to accept toilet paper. We had a great visit.

We are sorry to hear you were surprised with the rules on using the septic system. It is common practice in older homes of this area to avoid flushing toilet paper to prevent system backups. I will add more detail on this in our listing for future guests. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay overall.

Beautiful lake house

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at the lake house. We had fun swimming off the dock and brought some paddle boards that we enjoyed on the lake. The house was very clean and the renovated kitchen/main floor is totally gorgeous. We found the kitchen had everything we needed and it was much appreciated that there were a few staples like s&p, oil and tea. Thank you for sharing your lovely house with us!

Wonderful Stay

Beautiful house on a great lake in an area surrounded by natural beauty. We were in NS for a wedding and 8 family members (6 adults and two kids) stayed in the house. The house was super spacious (inside and out), secluded and well stocked/maintained. The water pressure was really good for showers, the dry sauna was a nice touch and there is plenty of space on the property. Though it rained many days, we were still able to enjoy the sunset over the water in front of a campfire. Melissa (our host) was super responsive for a few inquiries. There is plenty of great hikes in the area and only 15 min from Peggy's Cove which was nice. Highly recommend this property.

Lovely home

Your home is beautiful! The view on to the lake is stunning,There are lots of quiet areas to relax and read a book. My daughter, husband abd grandson took a lovely paddle around the lake. It is very quiet, which was great. We saw a few bunny rabbits jumping around the yard.The only negative thing was not beng able to flush toilet paper down the toilet. My very independant 3 year old grandson was on the trip with us and keeping him from not flushing the paper down the toilet was a chore.

We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your visit! As soon as bookings are made, we provide a welcome guide with house rules that includes our preference to keep toilet paper out of the septic system. This gives our guests the opportunity to cancel without penalty if they disagree with any of the rules.

Impressions of the property

The lake was very shallow and the heavy iron content of the water meant we couldn't see through to the bottom. this is really about esthetics. We were surprised to read the instructions about the septic system...it is so delicate that it cannot digest even toilet paper. The instructions were to never flush used toilet paper, rather place it in the garbage container next to the toilet. Very strange.

We are sorry to hear you were disappointed with the property. Unfortunately, all of the lakes in this area have dark colored water but we can understand how that can be off-putting for some people who aren't used to that. The lake is 6-8 feet deep which we find is plenty of water for swimming and canoeing but not good for motor boats. I will put additional information regarding this on our listing to warn future guests. It is also typical for older homes in this area to avoid flushing toilet paper in order to prevent system back ups. I will also make additional notes on this for future guests. Thank you for your feedback.

Our group of 3 couples, 5 kids, and 2 dogs had an amazing stay! The house was incredibly spacious, giving everyone plenty of room to relax and spread out. It was very clean, well-maintained, and stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The beautiful lake access was easily one of the highlights of our trip. The kids spent hours playing by the water, and our dogs absolutely loved it too. It was the perfect place for our family getaway, with plenty of space both inside and out.We had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a clean, spacious, well-equipped lake house that's perfect for large groups and pet-friendly vacations. We'd happily stay here again! Thanks Melissa

The property is a beautiful space in a great location if you are looking to explore Halifax, Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and sites in that area. The kitchen had all the tools we could need plus some extras (e.g. spices, olive oil, sugar, etc). The check-in/out process was smooth and Melissa was very responsive. The only thing we didn't realize was that guests aren't allowed to flush toilet paper, but have to put it in a waste basket. If you have people in your group who will find that to be a challenge, plan ahead. The lake was great and the canoe was a fun and relaxing way to enjoy it regardless of how cool the weather is that day.

We (Family of 6 - parents, 3 adultish children, and grandma) had a wonderful stay! We used the house as a base to explore Nova Scotia, going to Peggy's and Polly's cove, Halifax, the Bay of Fundy, and Lunenberg. The house was super clean and the view gorgeous. We enjoyed the dock and decks and found it easy to make breakfasts and dinners in the well stocked kitchen. Melissa was very responsive to our questions. We have traveled for about a decade using vacation homes- and this one was definitely one of our favorites!

À propos de l’hôte

Hôte : Melissa Morash

Image de profil de l’hôte
Melissa grew up in the nearby village of McGrath's Cove. She and her husband, Scott, purchased the home in Big Lake to be closer to family and friends. Melissa's family has a special connection to this property that goes as far back to when it was built in the mid-90's.

Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement

This is a peaceful neighborhood that is close to the natural wonder of Peggy's Cove. On windy days when the Ocean is not as inviting, Big Lake offers a sanctuary that allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds.

Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique

Big Lake is a private sanctuary surrounded by nature. For swimmers, the warm lake waters extend the swimming season into the months when the Ocean water is still too cold. The lake will also often freeze in Winter to offer skating.
