Lovely home by the bay!

We are home now after a week’s stay at this cozy and tidy home. The views were marvelous as was walking the boardwalk across the street for exercise and meeting friendly folks along the way. Everything was at our fingertips when preparing meals. Wonderful memories were made and we will highly recommend it to all.Thank you, Cathy!!

Perfect spot for us!

The Harbour House is a real home away from home! We especially loved hanging out on “The Porch” - the deck - every day (many times during the day 😎). I think we ate every meal and snack out there (breakfast included)!! The location was perfect for us. Very relaxing. The boardwalk was just across the street and we were in walking distance to the beach, a bakery and a number of spots to eat. Big thank you to Cathy and Les for making us feel welcome and being only a text away when we had a question. We’re hoping to stay again in the future!

Emplacement stratégique avec vu sur la baie

Nous avons aimé le site près de tout, poissonnerie, épicerie crèmerie, plage, restaurants et surtout la marche sur trottoir de bois . La maison est propre mais la cuisine aurait besoin d’une mise à jour car nous aimons faire la cuisine. Pour l’ambiance la décoration est chaleureuse et confortable. L’accueil de la proprio était bien gentil vu notre longue route. Merci

The most wonderful view!

My sister and I loved every second of our stay at this lovely cottage. We ate our meals out on the deck watching the boats in the harbour and the peaceful water view. The cottage is central to everything we wanted to do and it was lovely to stroll down into the town to the bakery and grocery store. Such a lovely spot! Cannot wait to return next year!
