10/10 Excellent
"One of the best VRBOs I’ve ever rented! From the outside, it’s pretty unassuming, but once you walk in, you realize what a great place it is. It was spotless, very well laid out, and had plenty of room for the four of us.What really impressed us were all the little details—the coffee beans and grinder, books, and thoughtful touches throughout the house. You can tell a lot of care went into making the place comfortable and welcoming.And then you have the location. Right on the Bay of Fundy with an absolutely incredible view! Waking up to that scenery and watching the huge tides come and go was something special.We loved our stay and would absolutely stay here again. Definitely a 5-star experience!"
