About this house rental

Nestled in Halifax, this attractive house for $260 per night is a great choice for your next trip. This beautiful, large, four bedroom, two full bathroom home and property borders Whynaughts beach (sandy beach) on the Atlantic ocean and is 40 min from Halifax on Nova Scotia's South shore. It is surrounded by a vibrant community and immersed in local culture. The north border of the property is on "Rum Runners Trail", a scenic 107 km groomed trail (ideal for biking, walking, four wheeling, or snowmobiling) stretching from Halifax to the town of Lunenburg. Peggy's Cove, and other scenic drives and sites, are located close by giving you an experience of quintessential Nova Scotia life. The home has four large bedrooms (with generous closet space and drawers). The morning views from the two front upstairs bedrooms are spectacular as you watch the local fishing boats go to work. It has a very large, fully equipped kitchen. It also has a spacious living room with ample lounging areas and views are AMAZING! It is ideal for either single family or multiple families. A full size washer and dryer is located in the upstairs bathroom. A large front deck with chairs and tables overlooking the beach is a perfect place to watch your children play if a full day at the beach is not your thing. The front deck is equipped with a cooking grill. There is also large deck in the back. A coffee bar complete with a Keurig and coffee maker is located in the dining room. The home comes equipped with a portable child's crib, high chair, and jogging stroller if requested. Air conditioning is located in each room (except the children's room due to fire code regulations) as well as the downstairs living space. Internet ready 4K TV, wifi, cable, Netflix, and a landline (local calls only) are provided. The home has great cell phone reception. A large grocery store and other large town amenities are located 12 minutes away in Upper Tantallon. Smaller stores are located nearby. Additional cottages rented by other owners are located next door if larger groups are wanting to travel. This is a non-smoking rental. Check in is 3 pm and check out is 10am. However, if no rental is reserved either right before or right after, these times are flexible. There is a fireplace in the living room that is available for use. An initial pile of wood will be provided. There is ample parking both in the front and rear of the house.

This wasn't just a holiday for myself and my brother and sister(hubby came too)! We are half Nova Scotian and doing family genealogy. As our family are from the South Shore, house was a great location for this. It is a lovely home,extremely well equipped. Unfortunately, we experienced Hurricane Lee and the loss of power. Thankfully, Kelly has a generator, which her sister Wendy and husband installed for us. Which meant we had some power and importantly water! They kept us informed about events, during the 3 day outage. We all had a wonderful time at the house. We highly recommend The Mug and Anchor Pub in Mahone Bay. Brilliant food at very reasonable prices. Also highly recommend The Oak Island boat trip, with Tony

We had great weather. Central location. The property needs a bit of fixing ( window cracked, back deck needs work and the barbecue shold be replaced). The house is large, nicely furnished and the decor is excellent. The view of the water from the front deck is great! Highly recommend staying here!!!!

We have rented a lot of VRBO homes for our past holidays and this is one of the more comfortable. The seating in the lounge area was plentiful and very comfortable. All the beds were VERY comfortable, the full sized laundry worked well and we found everything we needed to cook a couple of meals for the family (spices are very limited so keep that in mind when shopping). We didn't find a great restaurant nearby but many options toward Halifax. We would love to return in the fall or winter and enjoy the water views with a roaring fire! Also I wanted to mention that the owners proactively reached out the day before we arrived to let us know the unit was ready and that we could check in early if needed and they were very accommodating when we needed to make an adjustment to our original booking. Strongly recommended!

The house was lovely and did promote and encourage a feeling of relaxation . There was ample room for the kids and the adults to liesurely lounge around inside on rainy days . The proximity to the beach was on point with what we were looking for . Although we had many rainy days we took advantage of everything this staycation had to offer us . Trips to Chester for brunch and a walk , Hubbards to Mayas for fish and chips after a swim . Saturday market for fresh eggs and craft beer to enjoy back at the house . Kids played games , watched Netflix and Disney with their cozy blankets on the rainy days and practiced their cartwheels indoors . We walked to Queensland as soon as we saw the sun and later took advantage of the beach across the street . We loved coming back to this home , it was something to look forward to !!
