About this house rental

Located in New Brunswick, this lovely house for $441 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. PLEASE NOTE: Be sure to select your desired currency in the header. Whitecaps Retreat is a sister cottage with Whitecaps Summit (Property #1918433) Cherish the stillness while sipping your morning coffee. Take in the majestic scenery where the Atlantic Ocean meets the LaHave River. Savour spectacular sunsets over the LaHave Islands from the south-west facing patio. Curl up with a good book or plug in your favourite playlist; enjoy your vacation! Whitecaps Retreat is located 350 ft from each of its sister cottages, Whitecaps Summit (VRBO ID - 1918433) and Whitecaps Cabana (VRBO ID - 2447853) - far enough to have privacy, but close enough for three groups wanting to rent 3 cottages. Whitecaps Retreat is a vacation home that offers peaceful seclusion with breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. This hidden gem is nestled within a mature hardwood forest which was once cultivated as farmland. Walking the property you will see historical remnants of stonewalls and deer grazing in the old apple orchard overlooking Creaser’s Cove. The landscape, seascape and wildlife offer an exquisite sensory experience; a perfect spot if you are looking to get away from it all. The home is custom built, designed specifically for vacation getaways (please see the floor plan for further details). The décor has a mix of modern and traditional rustic appeal. It is meant to be a vacation home you can share with family and friends or a retreat for renewing and restoring energy. Whitecaps Retreat is on the Kraut Point peninsula stretching from Creaser’s Cove on the east to the sandy beach at low tide on the west. From the crest in the middle of the property is Whitecaps Summit (Property #1918433) with panoramic views of the water on 3 sides. The east side (Creaser’s Cove side) of Whitecaps is the best location for launching kayaks, paddle boards, and other small water crafts while the west side is perfect for beachcombing, walks, and swimming. Whitecaps Cabana (Property #2447853) is located on the Creaser's Cove side. All 3 cottages share the shoreline on both sides of the peninsula and share the beach stairs . This region of Nova Scotia is known for its warm waters where the LaHave River meets the Atlantic Ocean. During low tide, explore the private beach surrounding Whitecaps. A warm beach with shallow sand bars is a rare experience on the East Coast (see photos and videos of our girls playing on the beach last summer). If it’s surf you are looking for, Hirtle's and Kingsburg beaches are mere minutes away. We are located 15 minutes from Lunenburg, a World Heritage UNESCO site and home of the Bluenose II sailing schooner. In the town you will find restaurants, galleries, a museum, quaint book stores and charming shops near the waterfront. The LaHave ferry is a 5 minute drive from Whitecaps. The cable ferry takes you to the well known LaHave Bakery. Park your car and take the ferry across or drive on board to explore the south side of the LaHave River. Attractions/ Adventures in the Area - Hiking Gaff Point - Ovens Sea Caves - Tour the Bluenose II in Lunenburg - Beaches: Hirtles, Crescent, Rissers - Petite Riviere Vinyard (cross on the ferry) - Sea Kayaking - Deep Sea Fishing - Seasonal Festivals - Nordic Spa in Chester, Spa at Ninety4 in Lunenburg and others. - Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic - And many more!

We really enjoyed our stay. It is a beautiful house and the location is just perfect. The host was very prompt in answering any question that we had and was very accommodating when there was an emergency. I will highly recommend this place to everyone. There were a couple of things that I did not like. First, the listing said breakfast was included, but there was nothing, not even basic condiments. Second, the bathroom water had a weird smell, and there was no soap or body wash in the shower. Other than that, we had a great time in this house. Thank you for letting us stay at your place.

We had an incredible time at Whitecaps Retreat! The house is very cosy and spaceous with all the things you need and more to have a great stay. The surrounding is very quiet and the view above the bay is just awesome! The communication with Jacqui and Andy was easy and very kind. We can fully recommend this wonderful place and hope to come back soon!

We (3 older couples) stayed for a week and enjoyed the views immensely. We had several day trips in the area which were convenient. The kitchen and dining areas were well setup and we were able to prepare and enjoy many meals together. The bedrooms are well separated that noise doesn’t carry. Beds are very comfortable. The scallops bought from Adams and Knickle in Lunenburg made more than one fabulous meal to have at the house. Also LaHave Bakery had black bean brownies to die for.

My extended family rented all 3 cottages on the property and had a lovely family reunion.All cottages are fully stocked , with great out door space and a 5 minute walk apart so it worked perfectly for being together for meals but space apart when we wanted. Lahave is a charming location with a fun ferry ride close by to the bakery and Hirtle’s Beach a quick 15 minute drive from the cottages. Our only challenge were the evening mosquitoes but bug spray and a great screen porch in one of the cottages helped immensely. This is our second stay so we would certainly recommend it to all who are considering it!
