Lovely stay!

This was the perfect place to have as a home base for a week away! We were close enough to the city to be able to visit easily, but far enough away to have some much-needed peace and quiet. Wendy was an incredibly attentive host who made sure we had everything we needed. 😀

Roomy comfortable stay

This clean, roomy suite was perfect for our group of 4 adults. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. It looks like there might be a typo in the VRBO listing - it says there are 2 bathrooms but there is just one. Otherwise, a great place to stay in the Halifax area.

Good location, nice suite

Nice suite, great for family of four. With full kitchen, wash machine, everything is well maintained. Located south-west of Halifax, 10mins drive to downtown, also easy to Peggy's cove. If you have extra time, you can also go to herring cove national park and York redoubt historic site, both are about 5mins drive.

Great Stay!

We were a later check in than originally planned, but Wendy was in contact with me the day prior to our arraival so I was very comfortable messaging her with and questions or updates. The apartment was very clean, comfortable beds, wonderful towels, awesome quiet location but still an easy drive to anywhere in Halifax. I would definitely recommend this apartment and if given the opportunity I would book here again!!

A Very Cozy Stay

We were a family of five including children and seniors. We enjoyed our stay. House was clean and had all the comforts. Wendy was quick to respond to any questions we had. She kept checking on us periodically as well. Regret: We didn't have time to enjoy the beautiful backyard.

Great location

Conveniently located. We prefer to be away from the big city so the location was perfect. Everything was great, only downfall was the water pressure and the trek from the front parking to the rear entrance (1st time mom and packed too much haha). Our stay here was 2 nights out of a 12 night trip from Ontario to Nova Scotia and back. The suggestion for the convenience store restaurant was followed and it was one of our favourite meals from the whole trip!

Good property and management

The property was clean and spacious with plenty of necessities provided. The check in and check out process were very easy. The property manager was very nice and helpful, especially when she found something we left behind and made it easy for us to pick up. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would happily stay again.
