A view from the deck captures the changing tide along the shore. Brown sandy areas and rocky sections are visible beneath a bright blue sky dotted with fluffy clouds. A tree stands nearby, complementing the natural landscape.

Medford Beach house cottage

JimRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Susan Anne’s cottage is one of those places you want to keep a secret so you are sure you can stay there again. If you have never experienced Nova Scotia’s famous Bay of Fundy tides, you need to stay here. The cottage was perfect for the three of us and we really appreciated all the little thoughtful staples and cleaning supplies. Susan Anne was great in all interactions and went the extra mile when we asked about buying extra fire wood at a local store, I am a bit of a nut about ocean side fires, and instead of directions she had a basket full wood delivered to the door. We have been all over the world in AirBnB’s and this one is top 5.

An aerial view captures the serene landscape of Falls Lake Resort, with lush trees dotting the shoreline and gentle hills in the background. The lake's calm waters reflect the surrounding autumn foliage, while the sandy beach and cottages are visible along the water's edge.

Serenity Now! Private Beach & Lakehouse.

TanyaRating, 5 stars8 months ago

Ian & Theresa couldn’t have been more kind, allowing us some flexibility for check in/out given very stormy weather during our stay. This is a great spot with nice little beach area and all the water toys. Inside is neat and cozy, and bed was very comfortable. They left a nice booklet with all the info you need. We very much enjoyed our visit despite the rain, and would definitely go back.

An outdoor deck features comfortable seating arranged around a central table. Gentle light from string lights illuminates the space, with the scenic ocean view visible in the background. Lush greenery and a peaceful atmosphere enhance the inviting outdoor setting.

Rise N' Tide Cottage. Oceanfront. Bay of Fundy.

ElaineRating, 5 stars7 months ago

We had a wonderful stay at the Rise and Tide. Such a lovely home in a wonderful location. Lots of room to run, although going down to the ocean and beach was precarious and we didn't make it right down. Too risky, but some might be able to venture down. It was a little isolated but if you are looking to unwind, then this is the place for you. So bright and sunny. A must is a trip to the Flying Apron Restaurant only 10 minutes away. It was only open Thursday to Sunday, but it was well worth a visit. What a gem and the food is excellent. Windsor was about 25 minutes away and had a number of shops and restaurants where you could get all your supplies. Overall, it was a lovely cottage, clean and bright and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A serene view of Fall Lake is framed by blooming pink flowers in a planter. The calm waters reflect the greenery of the surrounding trees. A private dock extends into the lake, providing a peaceful spot for relaxation.

Nova Scotia Lake-house Falls Lake. Paradise awaits

AnnaRating, 5 stars7 months ago

Arne and Annette were wonderful and friendly hosts. They were flexible with their booking to suit our needs and even drove a long way to the accommodation to fix a small problem. The bedrooms were lovely and the beds very comfortable. Highlight of the stay was morning and evening kayak / canoeing on the lake.

Oceanfront retreat on Houston’s Beach, Blomidon

KelseyRating, 5 stars8 months ago

Lovely home with lots of room for kids to run around! The space was very clean with plenty of towels and linens for everyone. The outdoor property is huge with fire pits, patio tables, and beautiful views. The house lockbox uses a timed code that is supposed to expire right at 11am check-out, and it caused a bit of stress for one of my co-guests when the code wasn't working as they were trying to check out (I can confirm that it was prior to 11am as I received some panicked texts from them 5 mins before the cut-off time, haha). However the hosts were able to quickly sort it out. Check in/out was otherwise easy. A great stay overall!

A serene bedroom features a large sliding glass door that leads to an outdoor deck with views of the lake. Light curtains softly frame the door, while a potted plant adds a touch of greenery beside the bed. Natural light enhances the calming atmosphere.

Yellow Door Cottage (Waterfront!)

SusanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

The place was great for a family Easter weekend. Lots of fishing and games and walks. Beautiful lake and close to the store if you need anything. Hosts very responsive to messages and kitchen very well stocked with dishes/pot/pans for cooking. Will be back to the area again for sure. Only complaint was from my son that he wishes more fish were biting! :)

We had a great time at this location. Having a gas station just up the road with firewood and other basics was super handy. The cottage and property are lovely and well equipped for a wonderful stay.

Illuminated architectural features draw attention, while a spacious deck with outdoor seating is visible in front. Surrounding trees enhance the natural setting.

Hot tub! Sunnyside Lake House, Falls Lake

DarleneRating, 5 stars5 months ago

We loved the property. Lots of room for relaxing, playing games and the hot tub was great. The kitchen had everything you needed with special appliances. We were there on a rainy November weekend so didn't get to enjoy the beach but the property looked like everything you needed was there. We loved the fireplace, the view and spending family time together. Thanks we had a great weekend!!

Charming Lakefront Cottage 1hr to Halifax

Marie-ClaireRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

A little slice of heaven. The decor is so so cute and the lighting is perfectly cozy. The firepit area and the deck by the lake were such a vibe. The books, the games, the projector, the little fireplace and desk overlooking the forest and water in the room upstairs, the riddle, all the other little details... I loved everything and didn't want to leave!

Blomidon Rose Fan Cottage by the water.

KatherineRating, 5 stars7 months ago

The cottage was beautifully decorated, rather elegant in fact. It was extremely comfortable, quiet and private with a wonderful view overlooking the Minas Basin. The stairs descending to the beach were a bonus, making it so easy to reach the beach for endless walks on the mudflats. Bonnie was so hospitable. She really made me feel welcome. My stay could not have been improved.
