Apple Orchard Cottage Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada

8/10 Good

"Spacious home in a beautiful spot! Great option for families/groups. Water/ice on fridge were out of order and the coffee maker leaked. Could not access basement for laundry or heat pump (to adjust temperature) per owner’s instructions. Great central location to visit many idyllic towns like Lunenburg and Mahone Bay."

Historic 1785 Cape on 46 Forest Acres/ Water View/Pet Friendly

8/10 Good

"My friend and I enjoyed our stay at this charming cottage. It was clean and well located and Chris and Diane were very welcoming and helpful. The cottage grounds were beautiful and it was a pleasure to be able to sit outside and enjoy our morning coffee.We gave it four out of five stars because there was no indication that both bedrooms and the bathroom were up a steep staircase with an open side (no bannister). Neither of us felt we could take our bags up such steep stairs. While there was an option for an outside shower, the shower in the upstairs bathroom was very cramped and one needed to be limber to use it. I understand this would not be a problem for those who are young and fit, but as both of us had balance issues, it was a problem for us."

Romantic Getaway w/ King Bed in Historic Lunenburg (Suite 4)

10/10 Excellent

"This charming guesthouse was a perfect base for our 4 day excursion to the Lunenburg area. We were able to walk to the boardwalk area and the location was an easy drive to nearby points of interest."
