Captain Jack's Hideaway 150yds from the Harbour and Ocean and 20 min to Halifax

Captain Jack's hideaway is a newly refurbished self-contained sleep 6 in a 2-3 bedroom cottage style ground floor apartment. It is approx 150 yards to the harbour and enjoys ocean views from the property and garden. The new public wharf is only 150 yards away. Ketch harbour is located on the Sambro loop and only a few minutes drive to the famous Crystal Crescent Beach. We are close driving distance to Halifax and other tourist attractions but set in a quiet and sought after harbour area, which is ideal for a getaway to enjoy the trails and natural beauty the area offers. It is a 2-3 bedroom unit with a lounge/dining area, Wood burning stove. It has its own entrance and off road parking. We offer high speed internet so you can browse or work from home. There is a Delux QUEEN Air Mattress also available in the Lounge for additional guests (not a futon or sofa bed as mentioned in the description).
There is a 3rd bedroom with a twin (single) bed which gives direct access the outside decking.
We have outside security cameras mainly for wildlife (we have Bears, Deers, Racoons etc and other animals visit on the odd occasion)

Lovely and relaxing!
My husband and I wanted a comfortable and quiet place to land evenings after busy days in Halifax. This was the just the right spot! Ketch Harbor is an easy drive away from the city and this location is close enough to the cove in Ketch Harbor that you feel like you are part of a harbor village setting. Just the way to get away from the hub-bub of the city and relax - Mornings we would take walks around the waterfront and enjoy the peace. Domenic and Rachael were lovely hosts and were sure to let us know their favorite places all around the area for food, drink, hiking, and more. A very personable couple! The space is very clean and fresh, with everything we needed. Although their home is attached to the cottage/apartment you wouldn't know it; it is very quiet between the two spaces. A great location for a relaxing getaway.
