Family Getaway 2025

This was our second visit to the Land Yacht. We were very excited to stay again and we felt right at home! We pre planned our meals and the house was equipped with everything we needed to prep and cook.We love the new layout of the living area with the seating located in front of the fireplace- it makes a cozy area! We spent most of our time between the pool and playing cards or making puzzles. Everything is beautiful at the Land Yacht! Thank you for the beautiful accommodations and we can’t wait to visit again!!

Wonderful Experience!

The Land Yacht was spacious, comfortable, well furnished and had a great view of the bay especially from the solarium. The kitchen had everything you would need and then some. Our pluses included kayaking, bicycling and swimming in the pool and the bay. Bring your bikes and snorkeling gear. The host, Thomas (pardon me, the Captain as you’ll learn!), was friendly, helpful, paid attention to detail and close by if needed. The location was ideal for day trips to Halifax, Lunenburg, Peggy’s Cove, Bay of Fundy, etc. Our stay was relaxed and refreshing. We highly recommend a stay at the Yacht.

The land yacht is a must stay!

We absolutely adored the Land yacht and definitely will be returning. Watching the sea from the solarium was the highlight. Between kayaking with the seals and watching the harbour porpoises swim and play, this is the place to be. 20 minute drive to Halifax and Peggy's cove and back home after a day of site seeing to relax in the indoor salt pool. 11 of us enjoyed every minute. Thank you again for having us Captain!

Canada Day weekend

This property and space are beautiful! Very well kept and lots of nautical details. It was perfect for a weekend getaway with friends. The place has everything you need. We brought too much stuff that was not necessary. Thomas and Melanie have thought of everything. Lots of towels, bedding, paper towel and toilet paper, garbage bags, recycling bags as well as all the essentials needed to cook in the kitchen and on the bbq. Lots of propane! You don’t need to pack any household items. The garage is also equipped with everything you need for outside fun! A dozen lawn chairs, life jackets of all sizes, roasting sticks for the camp fire, as well as unlimited firewood! The kayaks fit two people each and they have three! For lawn games they had a high end ladder ball set and we just brought our own washer toss. Check out the amenities list! Just an fyi that the description of the lay out of rooms downstairs explains that you need to walk through the state room to get to the other room but there are many doors to access both rooms from outside without having to pass through an occupied room. Oh and the mosquitos and black flies were not bad at all! You get a cool breeze from the ocean at night so you hardly see any, very minimal. I brought citronella candles that I did not even open! Also to note for those sun addicts, they get sun all day and the back side of the land yacht is shielded from the wind! Highly recommend! We had an amazing stay! Thanks to the Land Yacht!

Perfect for Family Vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our extended family vacation at the land yacht! We had a larger group and found that we had plenty of space. The pool was a big hit with the kids and the solarium was a favourite spot for drinking morning coffees. The space was clean, beds were comfortable and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. We found sea glass on the beaches and there is convenient access to the trail system across the road. Can't wait to come back!

Breathtaking

Myself, my husband and our 4 children stayed at this beautiful house for our March Break. The house is gorgeous, it has everything you need to entertain all ages. It is fully loaded and the hosts were always available if we needed anything at all. We are extremely happy with our experience and the kids cried leaving the house (the pool was a huge hit!!!) We will absolutely book again!

The Land Yacht is fabulous for our group of 13. The view is second to none. So bright and spacious.

This was our second stay. Overall pleased with how well stocked the house is. The owners have thought of pretty much everything. (Couldn’t find a wire whisk) lol. The only down side is the water pressure. I don’t remember it being quite as low last year but for a long weekend the positives far out weigh the negative. One of our favourite places to have our winter getaway. Thank you once again for being so accommodating.

Outstanding!!

This property is so much more than just a place to stay, it's an experience not to be missed. We stayed as a multi-generational family and there was something for everyone to enjoy. In additional to having an amazing ocean view, the kitchen is well equipped, the living area is homey and the rooms are comfortable. It feels like a cottage oasis when you're in the house sitting by the fire but all the amenities that you could need are only a 10 minute drive away. The host is incredibly responsive and accommodating. Upgrades have been made since our stay one year ago and all the little touches made our stay even better. I highly recommend this property.

Family gathering

The location is excellent: close to the highway, the city and the attractions of the south shore. We had one guest in a wheelchair and he was most impressed- he spent time both in the pool and the ocean; absolutely loved it. It was a family gathering and we had planned both a feast of lobster and a turkey dinner. We had taken certain things with us including a lobster pot and lobster shears, but overall the kitchen was well equipped and easy to work in. The “great room” and surrounding enclosed balcony is well laid out and a pleasure in which to relax. It is large enough to escape in: for some to play crib, others to read, some to chat and others just to watch the changing sky. All in all a great four days .
