Spectacular Oceanfront Living in Authentic Fishing Village

Located forty five mins. from Halifax on the incomparable south shore of Nova Scotia this oceanside property is nestled in the heart of Northwest Cove .Watch the fishing boats head out and return with their day's catch. Rent a kayak (or a bike) or just walk to the nearby coves and beaches. Fish or snorkel from the dock. Have a bar-b-que and end the day by a crackling camp fire. Photographers, artists, beware ! You'll never want to leave ! Banking, shopping 10 mins. away. Historic Mahone Bay, Lunenburg and Peggy's Cove forty five minutes.

Great place for family funa

Our family of 12 had ample room in this fantastic home. With 2 kitchens, huge bedrooms, and a great dock to jump off, it's the ideal launching spot for a family vacation. The host is attentive and a great help if you want to get to know the area. I highly recommend it if you are travelling with a large group.

Amazing Family Vacation

Fantastic property for a family vacation. Comfortably accommodated our family of 8 adults and 6 children. Amazing views from the sunroom, which is where we spent most of our time. Kids have a blast catching mackerel from the dock. Location great for day trips and within 15 minutes of 3 beautiful beaches. Kelly is an amazing host.

This property was perfect for our needs. It is within a short driving distance to all of the sights in the area. Kelly was very easy to communicate with us and he helped us cook up our own lobster dinner. It is a peaceful place that is right on the ocean. I would definitely recommend his place for anyone staying in the area as a home base for all the activities in the area or just to relax. Our only regret was we didn’t stay longer.

We had a wonderful relaxing time sitting on the amazing large deck overlooking the water. The weather was beautiful for May. The lobster boats bringing in their traps was an added bonus and provided our entertainment.
