So relaxing!

What a lovely, compact, well-equipped cottage right on the lake. Gorgeous sunsets. We did not take advantage of the free use of the kayaks and standup paddle boards, but imagine they would have been a fun way to explore the lake. Mavillette is a spectacular beach - walk to the far end to see some fascinating rock formations - waves of black and white. Delicious fish tacos at the Wheelhouse in Belleveau's Cove and a great discovery of BMC seafood market and eatery in Meteghan. Would definitely stay again if we are in the area.

Cozy tiny cabin

Cozy tiny cabin in a great location to explore the Yarmouth & Digby area. The bed is a bit on the firm side for my old bones--but aside from that, we found this to be a great little place to use as our base to explore the area.

One of the best Getaways!

Each summer, another teacher friend and I try to experience something new. We viewed many places in Nova Scotia, but this one got our vote. When we arrived, we were thrilled with the accommodations and especially the view. Wanda & Rob were easy to get a hold of for suggestions as to what to do to fill our time.... other than the kayaking that they provided right on the lake! THANK YOU!

Highly recommend

Perfect pied-à-terre for touring the Yarmouth to Digby coastline. Quiet but conveniently located by NS highway 101 and Trunk road 1. Great value at this price point.

We really enjoyed it !

Very cute little spot on the water, and the hosts thought of many little details like having cream in the Fridge, and coffee…. It was a a nice quiet location. Very unique.

Very cute property, close to the beach and everything else you’d need. A great home away from home, only complaint is wish it was longer.

Cabin stay

The cabin was as described on VRBO. Very nice, looks remote but really isn't. If you are looking for quiet this is great. We initially had trouble finding the address, secondary to our GPS getting wrong coordinates? We came from the US so we weren't familiar with Canada roads. This cabin is close to a general store, where everyone was so nice. We did some exploring around the coastal region.
