Comfortable charming house

Our family of 5 (and a baby) enjoyed our stay at the Salty Cribb II. The house is comfortable, well stocked, and a short distance to a great little store. The owner responded quickly when we did have a question.

Family girls getaway

Such an incredible place!!!!! Loved everything about the house and area!!! Walking distance to beach, finding sea glass, seeing dolphins and seals in the cove, close to Lunenburg ( which you can see across the cove), watching Anne with an E at night on the tv, I could go on and on about how wonderful this place is… If I ever come back this is where I’m staying!!!!

The best VRBO we have ever visited!!

We loved this property! Not only was the house gorgeous, well-maintained, clean, and tastefully decorated, but the location was stunning and peaceful, and in proximity to many fun locations and activities. I/we would come back here in a second. Thank you Melissa & Robert! I wish all properties were this incredible!

Gorgeous house and view

We absolutely loved this house and location! Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer. The house is beautifully decorated with all the amenities you need and then some. The view out front is spectacular even in the fog! My 8 year loved climbing the rocks and collecting shells and sea glass. Thank you everything and if we are back tho way, we will definitely stay there again!

Perfection

Our nine day stay was perfect. My friend and I hiked each day on a different trail. We left Ovens until last because it looked kind of old and tired…. What a surprise! It’s incredible! Rose Bay store is perfect! Love that Lunenburg is an easy trip! Great home in an amazing spot.

As presented and more...

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay... great location from which to explore area.... spending some precious time with family... view onto Lunenburg Bay was amazing... especially appreciated how easy it was to communicate with the owners - they responded in a very timely fashion... highly recommended... just to be precise - it is close to a 25 minute drive to the town of Lunenburg

Salty Crib is a gift!

The home is beautifully decorated, and filled with so many object d'arts to enjoy. Everything has been restored or updated with style. We stayed for one week and loved our time there and can't say enough about this lovely home by the sea and our gracious hosts.

Stunningly beautiful house and location

Oh, wow! Kinda felt like we were in a Vrbo ad… The house is a beautifully renovated old home just across from the water, and a couple hundred yards from the beach. Beds were luxurious, bookcases of interesting books. The neighbourhood is of older, well looked after houses on a quiet cul de sac on the ocean. Couldn’t be better.

Salty Cribb 2 didn't disappoint

Our visit to this area was very memorable. Lots to do and see. So nice to start and end our days in such a beautiful and well appointed home. Loved starting our day on the porch with coffee looking out at the ocean. Saw tons of wildlife there. Watched Bluenose 2 and Eastern Star sail by. Many great destinations very close to home. Wouldn't hesitate to come again.

Seaside Wintery Fun

We enjoyed Xmas watching waves, winds, rains and on calm days the fishing boats. In the dark at 5am they shine their lights, it's like watching moving stars. For New Years we had fireworks viewed across the water. Back Road Map book showed us beaches, trails, roads and we did 1300 km in two weeks. Loved it all. Rose Bay General Store and Lehave Bakery/Bookshop are awesome. The house is cozy and elegant. Perfect.

I could live here

This beautiful home was so inviting, it was hard to leave. It made us feel that our stay was far too short. We enjoyed every moment in this lovely appointed home. So many little special quaint items in the home, it truly gave you the feeling you were in your own home. There were antique binoculars, and old interesting books everywhere, nice areas to sit and look out at the spectacular view, or read or write or both. There were so many little extras and everything was very easy to use, with great directions on everything you needed to know to make your stay seamless and comfortable. I would stay again in a heart beat, I wish we owned this piece of heaven. I reccomend it 100%, something for everyone.

Enjoyed Our Week Here!

We really enjoyed the week we spent here. Lovely home. Great views! Home was very clean and nicely set up. Owners were very accommodating when our flight from Florida was cancelled due to Hurricane Ian. Great experience end to end. We would rent this home again without any hesitation should our travels take us that way. Our thanks to Melissa and Rob.
