Nice home in a really great location to discover the Annapolis Valley. Linda was very helpful in keeping us updated when a power outage occurred, even offering that we spend time at her place if the power didn’t resume at the expected time. The view of the water was lovely from the yard but it should be noted that it’s not a beach combing type beach if that’s what you are looking for. The deck wasn’t functional but you could still make your way to the beach during low tide if you really wanted to. The place was clean and the beds were comfortable. All in all, we had a very nice stay.

Lovely location, some things not as described though

This house was in a lovely secluded location, with great access to Wolfville and the Valley. There were some things missing from the listing - the hot tub, toys for the younger kids and a pack and play. Linda arranged for a pack and play to be dropped off along with some toys suitable for our 2 yr old. Some bedding and towels were torn, the dock was no longer accessible; the house is obviously well loved but starting to show its age in places. We notice some areas had not been cleaned when we arrived.

fabulous location but too close to neighbours

The house is well appointed with amazing views. It wasn't very clean but passable. Four of us stayed in the house and we were visiting relatives who live nearby. We had a bbq in the garden with the family and apparently this upset the neighbours. The host told us she left a note telling us no fires but we didn't find it. We had a fire I the firepit the first night as this was within local regulations - our family know the regs. The neighbours complained about this. On the last day we left very early but my son and stepson stayed on to clean the house and leave everything in good order. The host turned all the power off a little before the check out time which wasn't helpful at all. Overall a good place to stay if you are not planning a get together!

Relaxing stay at Lake House

We stayed here with our three kids, 18, 14 and 11. There was plenty of space for everyone to have their privacy plus lots of family space too. Very quiet road but still close to all the amenities that Wolfville and Port Williams have to offer, not to mention wineries, cideries, antique stores and fun adventures to be had. Will definitely be looking to stay here again when we are next in the area.

Tranquility on the Bay of Fundy

Tide House was perfect for our friends gathering with four bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an open style main space. Comfy beds, oodles of privacy, and access to amazing landscapes/food/wine in Annapolis Valley. Short trips to restaurants and markets in the area, and easy day trips to Lunenburg, Mahone Bay or Halifax (1 hr away). Highly recommend this for 4-8 adults or 2 families with littles. Thank you to host Linda H.

It was great!

We spent a week here in July. The house was extremely clean and it was very quiet. The kitchen was well equipped with quality cookware and utensils. We enjoyed seeing eagles fly over the backyard as well as a hummingbird that showed up most evenings. Watching the tide in the Bay of Fundy was most interesting. After a brief, but heavy, shower one afternoon we were happy to see one of the most beautiful rainbows ever! I have a photo of it stretching all the way across the backyard over the Bay. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Stay !!

This seaside cottage has everything you need for a relaxing vacation, starting with a well appointed kitchen and dining area with a big window that looks onto the Bay of Fundy. The decor is a pleasing blend of rustic charm with modern touches. The beds and furniture are comfy. Ww spent many hours watching the tide and sunlight bouncing off the water while relaxing on the private deck. The many nearby wineries offer exceptional dining and viewpoints. If you choose to bbq at home, a gourmet butcher that also offers farm fresh vegetables and home style desserts is just moments away. Anne is an attentive host and lost no time in responding to our questions and concerns. Everyone had a great time.

Quiet, so quiet and the summer breeze...

What a great place to just be. Completely awestruck with the tides. To watch the bald eagles on the tidal flats at dawn from the edge of the property was magical. Cottage had every thing we could want. A lot of care has gone into the details of the cottage both on decor and comfort. We simply loved our stay.

Well equipped and beautiful!

Lovely location and house was very clean and as advertised. Access to the water front was via a ladder so those with mobility issues may not be able to handle. The garden was lovely and the bird song a delight! The house was well stocked with all the basics, much more so than many other places! Highly recommend!
