Alana & Chuck's home is perfectly situated in picturesque Lunenberg. There are beautiful views of the bay from every room in the house! We found everything we needed to cook gourmet meals during the holiday week and ended our evenings with a well-stocked fireplace. Alana & Chuck were extremely friendly and attentive to any questions we had prior to our arrival and during our stay. We loved being there!

Lovely holiday home with an unbeatable location. The property is exactly as described and pictured. Everything is new and well-maintained. Very comfortable beds, lovely sitting areas, amazing patio and a very good BBQ. We had a little trouble with the entry code, but the owner corrected the problem within 10 minutes of getting our text.

We loved our stay here! We really enjoying sitting outside and taking in the view. The surrounding area was fun to explore and our kids loved the RoseBay Store and Bistro only 5 min away.
Alana was a fantastic host. Very quick to respond to any questions or requests. We hope to return.

This is a beautiful home, in an even more beautiful location. You can't beat being right on the water! The home was clean for the most part, sheets and towels were clean and in good condition, kitchen was clean etc. However, this was my second time I've visited and both times I noticed the home could really benefit from a good overall cleaning (get rid of cobwebs, dust, shower tile deep-clean, clear the many dead bugs from between windows and screens. etc.). However, that wasn't a big enough deal to keep me from returning and my friends and I really enjoyed our stay.

We feel so lucky to have found this spot. So beautiful being right on the water, it was better just being there than going to some of the tourist spots we saw!! The house was super clean and stocked with everything we needed and then some.
The communication was excellent with Alana from the very beginning. We wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Lovely house and amazing views! House has all the amenities including a well-equipped modern kitchen, important for this foodie. Thoroughly enjoyed our short stay (due to Fiona). Hope to be back soon. Highly recommend the Rose Bay General Store & Bistro. Quirky selection of goods and wonderful menu.

LOVED THIS PLACE....EXCELLENT LOCATION WITH ITS OWN LITTLE PRIVATE BEACH * CLIMBING ROCKS...PLUS 4-5-6 WONDERFUL BEACHES NEAR-BY. WE WATCHED THE BLUENOSE GO BY EVERY DAY. COMMUNICATION WITH ALANA WAS EXCELLENT. THE CONDIMENTS IN THE KITCHEN WERE BEYOND EXPECTED & THE KITCHEN ITSELF HAD EVERYTHING (so says my son, the chef!!). APPRECIATED THE WASHER & DRYER & BEACH TOWELS. BOOK WELL IN ADVANCE!

House on the Ocean is a magical place for a vacation. Placement is perfect for watching seals, dolphins and the Bluenose II sail by from your large picture windows. Local must see attractions in Rose Bay, Lunenburg and Mahone Bay are an easy drive. House is well appointed.

My husband and I loved visiting the Lunenburg area and this spot was just perfect. The house was very well equipped, beds were comfy, and the view...spectacular! We really enjoyed watching the lobster boats come and go and the sunrises/sunsets -- hope to return someday.

We rented this property for a gathering of nephews and niece from Halifax, Spain, and Montreal. We are from the prairies. The house was the perfect sport for us to get together - gorgeous view in every direction and positive vibes throughout the home. We found lots to do in the area plus enjoyed cooking together and hanging out. The home is really well-equipped and a lovely space. Everybody loved the place.

Woke up to the sunrise over the open ocean. Followed shortly by a fishing boat pulling in traps. Could it get any more Nova Scotian.

The cottage offers a great view. I gave a 4 star because it could have been cleaner. There was a layer of dust when we checked in and assorted bugs were stuck on outside window screen.

Incredible and relaxing vacation
My husband and infant son and I had an incredible stay at Alana's property. The views are amazing from every single room. We enjoyed sitting outside and watching the dolphins and seals every night with a glass of wine. Location is perfect - just minutes outside town but far enough away for quiet.
Alana was a fantastic host, and check in and check out was easy. The rental is perfect for a family. We will likely rent again next summer!

This home exceeded our expectations: beautiful, quiet and truly tranquil. I stayed here with my dad and two teenaged sons and we all had a lovely time. Very close to The Ovens & the town of Lunenburg but also far enough away to really enjoy the peaceful views. Allana is the consummate host: we had everything we needed & communication was A+ One of our most memorable trips for sure! 💛💙

Myself and 3 friends stayed for 2 nights for a relaxing get-away. We were impressed with the beauty of the place inside and out. We saw seals, porpoises and herons from the panoramic ocean view in the kitchen. The house was clean and comfortable with a modern kitchen and bathrooms. Highly recommend this place!

Anyone who is looking for the ideal seaside Nova Scotia experience should book this cottage. Beautiful, quiet location, but close to Lunenburg, Bridgewater, and LaHave (and the beaches). Strong wi-fi and cell service for those who need it, and having Netflix for the kids was a great bonus!
Everything was clean and really nice. The beds are super comfortable, and the views from every room are spectacular. Highly recommend!

We loved our 4 day stay at this property. It is an Ocean lovers dream! It was myself, my husband, 2 children, and my parents in law. Perfect size for a family of 6. The property is lovely inside and is so comfortable. Outside, I loved having a coffee or wine while sitting in one of the comfortable chairs. My daughters (6 and nearly 4) loved exploring on the rocks.
The host was super responsive to messages. And very accommodating when I requested a change to our reservation- I very much appreciated the above and beyond customer service.
We love beaches and we visited Hirtle Beach, Spindlers Beach and Sand Dollar Beach - all were nice in their own way. We drove in to Lunenburg for groceries and to go to dinner one evening. We took the LaHave ferry and stopped in to get delicious treats at LaHave Bakery.
We had the best time! This place is a hidden gem!
