Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Shelburne County

Great stay. Couldn’t have been easier. Would stay there again.

Great host, great house, great location! This is a very private house that is not far from town, only 20 minutes from the ferry. The house is clean, well appointed and spacious. It’s right on the water which gives hours of enjoyable relaxing both day and night. Speaking of night, you haven’t seen a night sky like this, it’s really amazing! This home was the perfect temporary home base for me and my family as we explored southern Nova Scotia. The host is excellent at communicating clearly. My family of 4 was more than comfortable during our stay here. We’d definitely stay again! Thank you for a great stay!

We had a struggle with the mortgage company for a home that had purchased near Yarmouth, but this made the hassles easier to deal with and it was a great location to get out and meet our new neighbors

This was my first girlfriend trip. We arrived at the house and the seven of us were Wowed! Everything you could need was there. Perfect kitchen for meals and the open concept was great for everyone being together. The beds were very comfortable. The whole house is spotless. The hot tub on the upper deck and the view from there is beautiful. Summerville beach was only a couple minutes away. Next trip will include our husbands. The house next door would be great if anyone would want a family reunion getaway.

We had the best girls’ weekend here! The house was big and spacious—plenty of room for all of us to spread out, hang out, and relax. It was spotless when we arrived, which we really appreciated. Everything felt fresh, tidy, and clearly well taken care of. The host was awesome—friendly, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed. We did cold dips in the lake (freezing but fun!), then sat around the outdoor fire with blankets, music, and wine. Honestly, it was the perfect mix of chill and fun. The whole place felt private and peaceful, and we never felt cramped. Highly recommend!

Andrea was easy to communicate with, accommodating and pleasant. Walking distant to beautiful Mavillette Beach. Neighbors were friendly and welcoming.

Beautiful little spot, very quiet and private neighborhood. Glen is awesome to talk to, with great local recommendations and great communication

We loved our stay here. Hope to come back in a couple yesrs and stay longer. Loved touring the area. The beaches are amazing!

We booked to stay in Shelburne over Christmas as our daughter is doing an internship there .We were very pleased with accommodations , very modern and clean . Jerry was very responsive to all communication . I would highly recommend staying here and certainly will book again for our next visit .

The layout is open, spacious, and has a simple elegance. The host is responsive and helpful.

Great spot to stay! Quick walk to the boardwalk, nearby restaurants and parking. The house was clean and spacious. Backyard was private and my kids loved it!

Beautiful condo, well finished and furnished with taste. Bed very confortable with super soft sheets. Excellent location for an early ferry trip.

A real gem. Beautifully appointed with a full kitchen. Excellent and responsive host. You will not regret renting there. First class all the way.

Normally, I wouldn’t review the same place twice. But we stayed at The Merchant Quarters upon arrival for our 12 day trip around beautiful Nova Scotia - figuring its location was so easy after coming off the ferry from Maine, USA. We fell in love with every single detail of this beautiful place! It is a GEM! We enjoyed it so much that we canceled our reservations at another place for our last night in Nova Scotia, and booked The Merchant Quarters for our final night stay - and we are so happy that we did!

Morgan and Zoee’s space was beautiful and it’s perfect for a private getaway or a family trip! there view from the back windows is stunning and even better if you go on the floating dock. if you find it cold, there is a lovely fireplace in the main room, and an electric one in the master bedroom. both heat the space so well! the place came stocked with all the amenities you could need, and there were lots of fresh towels and blankets. the kitchen is fully stocked with all types of dinnerware and dishes, and the fridge was a highlight of our stay. there was also a really cool mirror in the bathroom and we all loved it!

Loved staying here! Stayed for a week, and it had everything I needed. Absolutely beautiful and would return. Would love to come back in the summer. Highly recommend! amazingly stocked kitchen.

AMAZING HOST!!! Our 2nd time here. Super private beautiful cottage and loveeee the hottub!! highly recommend and we WILL be back again :-)

We had a lovely three-night stay at cottage #1. We travelled as two adults with two small children (ages 2 and 6). The cottage was clean and well-equipped with kitchen gadgets, dishes, utensils and cooking supplies, plenty of linens, and even a drawer of board games and colouring supplies that our kids really appreciated. We were happy to have the BBQ and fire pit to use as well. The amazing beach is literally right across the street, as well as the Quarterdeck restaurant. It was very convenient especially with two kids to just be able to walk across the street and access beach fun and a meal if we wanted. Check-in was very easy with a door code provided before our arrival, and Eric and Dawn kindly checked on us via message daily to ensure we had all we needed. I would highly recommend this cottage to others. Thanks for the great stay!

We really enjoyed our trip, loved how private the location was so we were able to unplug from a very busy lifestyle. Their setup by the ocean is absolutely perfect! Kayla was very friendly to deal with and graciously came to setup the sauna whenever we needed. Highly recommend!

Loved this quiet peaceful space for a family getaway. Close to gorgeous beaches. 15-20min away from Carters beach and Summerville beach. The latter is a great beginner surfing beach.

We had a wonderful stay in Clark's Harbour. So much to do and very serene. Jorge provided almost everything needed. The cottage was VERY comfortable. A great place to relax. We visited as much as we could from Yarmouth to Shelburne. Hawk Beach is just breathtaking. It is huge, clean, very few people, and the water was so blue! I have a passion for lighthouses so we visited as many as we could. My dog was very happy too. So glad Jorge's is pet friendly. Barrington has all the stores you need. Everyone was very friendly. We loved the wild life, deer in the yard, crows having their meeting on the fence posts, seagulls everywhere and beautiful great blue herons! We just loved this little place. One of my favourite things was the teeny tiny lamp on the window sill by the couch - it was so adorable. Thank you for the beautiful painted rock. It is now with my beach rocks around my lighthouse out front at home. To be able to see the bay out the front and the waves out back!

If you're seeking a serene retreat, look no further than this splendid cottage. Nestled in a secluded haven, it offers unparalleled privacy, making it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Our host, Devon, was extraordinary, consistently going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. His thoughtful gestures and attentive care made our stay truly special. The natural beauty surrounding the cottage is nothing short of breathtaking. We spent our days watching majestic eagles soar above, graceful herons glide across the lake, and playful otters frolic in the water. The picturesque setting and abundant wildlife created an unforgettable experience that rejuvenated our spirits. This cottage is a gem and highly recommended for anyone seeking peace, comfort, and a touch of nature's magic. This was our third visit and we are already planning viait #4. Thank you Devon and Callee for a MUCH needed weekend away. Till we meet again!
