House was clean, mpdern and well furnished and had a fantastic view of the ocean/bay. Likely the best VRBO house I have stayed at. Owner was very responsive and accessible.

A little out-of-the-way retreat is just what we needed--plenty of room for 7 people and well-appointed kitchen. Highly recommend.

This home is fabulous. Clean, spacious, well furnished. Amazing location - within short gorgeous drives to whatever we need. And plenty of room for walks around the property and rocks along the bay. Magnificent views of the ocean/bay. Any minor issues were resolved quickly. Stephen is very responsive and attentive. Excellent host.

Our group had a great time. House is lovely and the views are stunning. Unfortunately we arrived a day after the floods and many roads were destroyed which impacted some of our plans. Non the less, looking out at the scenery was beautiful.

This is a quality property with spectacular views and outstanding natural light. The layout is a bit unusual. The primary suite is on the top level with a connected bathroom. It's the only bathroom for the three bedrooms on that level. The kitchen is very well equipped, especially for cooking your lobster dinner! Take time to traverse the path down to the lookout over St. Margaret's Bay for breathtaking views. We would definitely rent this property again.

The last time we were in this home, it was for our wedding pre-covid. The location and property were great then - and have stayed great. For our first escape from BC since Covid it was a wonderful time. The owner was immediately responsive when one window wouldn't close. We enjoyed the glorious views and loved the local restaurants. Lobster was frequently on the menu at the house as it's minutes from Ryers Lobsters, and growing up in NS Peggy's Cove was one of my most loved places and still is. Highly recommended home. We were thrilled that one of our wedding wine glasses was still in the cupboard, and we enjoyed using it and seeing that others had before us - Conrad and Kelly

This is the most amazing house to stay at! This is a house of glass and every window has a stunning view. The house sits up on a knoll and overlooks the inlet. You have two neighbors which you can not see or hear. There is a trail down to the water where you can explore the rocks or sit and take in the view. We traveled to Nova Scotia for my mom’s 80th birthday and family reunion. The house easily fit all of us and everyone was comfortable. You are 21 miles from Peggy’s Cove, 30 minutes from Halifax, and 45 minutes to a great beach. It was a trip of a lifetime in Nova Scotia making precious memories with family. How can you beat that. Thanks for giving us incredible memories at your house.

Beautiful property and lots of rooms for everyone to get a great night sleep. The description shows that there is a fireplace however guests are not allowed to use it so keep that in mind if that is on your must have list.

We had a wonderful time with friends. Great ocean view. Kitchen and bedrooms were very nice. Kitchen is well equipped. The only thing I would probably say is to take more toilet paper with you if you have 10 people. We were not allowed to use fireplace but were fine with that. Living room could update furniture to seat 10 more easily. Overall fantastic stay and you won’t be disappointed.

Four couples (all friends) needed a break away and so we rented this wonderful home for the weekend. A pot luck supper Friday night and night out at the Rhubarb Sat made for a relaxing and enjoyable time. Visited the new viewing deck at Peggy's Cove as well. This home has breath taking views, beautifully furnished and a well equipped kitchen. A must RETURN TO PLACE!

We spent a week enjoying stunning sunrises and enjoyable excursions during the days. We were able to visit Peggy’s Cove, Queensland beach, Chester, Mahone Bay, Lunenburg, hiked Split Cove, and Halifax proper. The house is as stunning as the pictures online. We are already planning our next visit!

Everything about our stay was fabulous, the views, the comfortable sleeping accommodations and the house was stocked with everything you could possibly need. There were no blackout shades or window dressings in any of the bedrooms which meant at 5-6am you are wide awake with little to chance of getting back to sleep and there were no blinds or privacy window dressings in the bathrooms and the main floor bathroom looks straight into the driveway. The other issue we had was that no one could get on the wifi which was a definite inconvenience. Overall our stay was great and although the things above were bothersome, we would still rate this beautiful home a strong 4.5 to 5 in star ratings.

Our party of 3 couples was blown away by the unique architecture of the home and the stunning views from the floor to ceiling windows. With full bedrooms and baths on each of the three levels, we all had privacy while still having the opportunity to be together. The home is a close drive to Rhubarb restaurant, which we enjoyed on our second night there. The kitchen is very well stocked with spices and cooking products and we enjoyed making a number of meals there. The only challenge we experienced was trying to use the television. In the end it didn't really matter because we didn't really want to watch television anyways, but the directions could be clearer. We all took turns following them to a T but we couldn't get the channels to come up. All in all it was a fabulous get-away in Covid times.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. Amazing views from every window, truly an unbelievable location! We stayed for just a winter weekend but wished we’d had a longer stay. Super well stocked kitchen made cooking very easy. Loved the foosball table! Thank you!

This is a truly unique property located in a breathtakingly beautiful location. It’s very much away from the bustle but an easy drive to Halifax. Our visits included Pollys Cove (10 minutes), Peggys Cove (15 minutes), and Lunenburg (1.5 hours). Just poking along the shoreline is a satisfying day trip in and of itself. This was a super place to stay - we left with many great experiences and fond memories.

Upon arriving and walking into the house your breath is taken away. The house is an architectural thing of beauty. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything you need.

This is the second time my family has stayed at this accommodation. Was a wonderful stay this second time amount. Check in happened a bit late, but other than that it was super clean, well appointed and with all the amenities. Will definitely be staying here again some time in the future.

Beautiful property overlooking the ocean. Many things to do in the area. No groceries or gasoline nearby so stock up before arriving. So peaceful and such a well appointed place. It was perfect for our reunion with our kids and their families. All 10 of us were very comfortable there.

However We had two issues - it was unseasonably cold so we had a problem in the evening keeping warm not being able to use the fire meant the Grandchildren went to bed cold. We feel strongly that there should be a covered BBQ area away from the house but as an option to cooking up in a garage

10/10

This place was everything as advertised, lots of space, everything you need is there so no need for going into the city. Great views when there is no fog. The owner, Stephen, made sure everything was as we needed before we arrived and was very gracious. Would definitely stay there again.
