Off the bedroom is a welcoming living room with a pull-out sectional couch & a flat screen TV, complete with Netflix and Amazon Prime.

Conveniently located

My friends and I had a great stay. The property was located within good proximity to Halifax Peggy's Cove and other sites we wanted to visit while being quiet away from business. The hosts were always quick to reply to any questions and requests even quickly setting up the outdoor hot tub. Thank you

We enjoyed our stay here. The host was very responsive and easy to contact. There was lots of space and it was nice to have a kitchenette so we could do some of our own meals. It was nice to have access to a bbq and outdoor space with fire pit. We just didn't have enough time during our stay to utilize them.

Overall the place was clean until we found a used feminine napkin inside a blanket, picture shows 2 tvs were told no there was only one, asked about hot tub, were told they dont know why vrbo posted that because they dont have one, yet it was posted in their reviews how much it was enjoyed, if the people upstairs are heavy walkers, it can get very noisy Would not use again

It was spacious but sadly not as clean as we would have liked it to have been, some rules were strange having to only use one electrical item at a time in the kitchen,the television instructions hadn't been updated in the book which lead to a bit of a battle with them both.
