Noca Scotia Gem
Publié le 23 sept. 2024 sur HomeAwayI can’t say enough about this property and the owners. Hugh was most accommodating and the property is very well appointed and very comfortable. If you want a quiet relaxing place to get away. This is it!

Delightful Vacation
Publié le 15 août 2024 sur HomeAwayThe cottage was better than described and a joy to enjoy. It is in the countryside beside water but close enough to a city for the conveniences needed.

Family Nova Scotia vacation
Publié le 16 juill. 2024 sur HomeAwayAfter driving 10+ hrs through a torrential rain storm, the house was warm and welcoming with lights lit. Beautifully appointed! The location is absolutely breathtaking. Tiiu could not have been more accommodating throughout our stay. The house was well stocked.
A great central location to explore the highlands of Nova Scotia.
Oh yes, those pesky mosquitoes!

Absolutely Wonderful!
Publié le 10 sept. 2023 sur HomeAwayThis house is gorgeous and located in the most perfect setting. The house has everything you could possibly need and it’s decorated with the most amazing artwork. This home is a gem located in an idyllic setting. Tiiu and Hugh are wonderful hosts and so incredibly helpful and kind. I cannot recommend this house enough. It was a perfect home for our family vacation. Thank you Tiiu! FIVE STARS!

Not sure
Publié le 6 sept. 2023 sur HomeAway5 adults, three children (11, 5 and 3)
Aug 19 - rented for two weeks
Inside:
- plenty of condiments, spices and basic staples for use in the kitchen/bath/laundry. No need to bring anything in this regard
- wifi working very well
- there is a very comprehensive "book of rules" to follow
- the owner addressed promptly the fridge light not working issue
- there are 4 bedrooms, not five; there is a windowless/doorless room with a pullout in the basement in addition to two other bedrooms there
- there is a musty smell in the basement and most rooms upstairs (especially bathroom)
- the area rugs over the carpets are better to be avoided; easy to trip
- the house is more like someone's home not a vacation property
Outside:
- nice water views
- not suitable for swimming
- relentless mosquitoes; we started a bonfire by the water but couldn't stay there; being outside equaled being bitten and attacked constantly.
- to spend time outside we needed to drive somewhere else
I recommend:
- Pomquet beach - half an hour, Cape George Point (magnificent views) - half an hour, Antigonish (nice little town with all shops and eateries needed) - 10 mins unless the only road is being repaired.

It's a problem when guests don't read the property description. When you follow the photos and their descriptions it's pretty clear that one of the bedrooms is a pull out sofa in the downstairs den - quite comfortabe with its own TV. It's also important that the guests communicate their needs in advance and let us know if there are any special requests. In this case we did not know how many people were coming but we still managed to accommodate a young child who needed a portable bed at the last minute.
We also descibe the beach as pebbly, not sandy. The waterfront is about 900 feet of beautiful private beach and people swim there all the time. We do provide water shoes and even water toys.
And yes, the property is a private home that we rent out to guests during the summer season, Its' not a dedicated vacation property. We keep the house exceptionally clean and have humidifiers going in the summer months.
I do aplologize for the mosquitoes. This have been an unusually wet summer which has caused the water table to rise. To compensate, we left lots of bug spray for use of the guests for the beach and we installed a deluxe Dynatrap mosquito trap that protects up to one acre of land.
And lastly, there wasn't much we could do about the road repair going into town. It is summer after all.

Beautiful ocean-side location in northern Nova Scotia
Publié le 22 août 2023 sur HomeAwayThis property is beautiful, relaxing, and quiet. There are extensive lawns and a long stretch of private rocky beach with many shorebirds. The house itself is large, with four enclosed bedrooms and one living area downstairs that can be converted to sleeping space. As described, the house is home to an artist, who lives next door to the property during the summertime. There are many works of art and items of unique character throughout the house. There were extensive instructions in the welcome binder regarding cleaning, using the dishwasher and washing machine, recycling regulations, and conserving water in the event that the hand-dug well begins to go dry during a hot summer. (As this was a wet summer, we had no issues with water during our stay.) It is important to carefully read the detailed instructions and to adhere to them, as additional fees or charges may apply if the instructions are disregarded. The house was well-stocked with dishes and cookware, toilet paper, paper towels, pantry items, and hand soap. The heat pump that provided cool air on humid days was much appreciated. There is ample seating, and linens and towels are provided. If we could suggest one thing it would be to add a clothesline for bathing suits and towels, or for more eco-friendly drying of clothing. Our interactions with our host were positive and friendly and she was quick to welcome us to the property.

Patricia, you were the best guests ever! You left the home immaculate and you were courteous and friendly. We had a clothesline but it had to be moved for the wedding arch. We will be sure to find a new spot for it. Thank you for being such a pleasure to host!

Beautiful house with amazing views
Publié le 15 août 2023 sur HomeAwayAll 3 generations of our family enjoyed our stay in this lovely home, full of character and art. Tiiu and Hugh were very welcoming and accommodating. While the weather and mosquitos were challenging, we look forward to a return visit some day!

Lovely location
Publié le 13 juill. 2023 sur HomeAwayGreat spot for a family get together. Stayed for a week while visiting family in the area and we had a great time. Ocean access and a wonderful grass yard for kids to run around in. Ocean access is rocky but they do have adult size shoes to make it easier.

A Must Stay
Publié le 3 oct. 2019 sur HomeAwayBeautiful property right on the water, beautiful home, all within 12 minutes of wherever you need to go. A "Must Stay" when you are in Antigonish or surrounding area. Truly home away from home with all the amenities. It's my #1 place to stay twice a year when I visit Antigonish. The owner (Tiiu) could not have been nicer, what a wonderful host.
