Holiday Homes in Southwest Cove

"Stunning area with breathtaking view of the cove and the home was gorgeous, had everything you could need and decor was comfortable and beautiful."

"The Mahone Bay Beach House was the perfect place to start our vacation in Nova Scotia. It is an easy drive from Halifax Airport and immediately welcomed us in to relax on the deck, inhale the fresh coastal air and take in the sounds of the birds and boats in the harbour. The house is just as advertised with all the amenities available and a nice cheery decor. The master bedroom has a terrific view over the water. After a short sunny nap on the deck we walked down the street and had a nice dinner...

"We enjoyed our stay close to local beaches, kayak/paddle board rentals and in between Halifax and Mahone Bay. The owner was very attentive and thoughtful of our needs. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and the owner brought family videos and yummy coffee for us. It was well equipped with a wonderful washer dryer, BBQ, waffle maker and coffee maker as well as many items for guests. The deck was handy to enjoy meals and watch the deer in the morning and water throughout the day and evening. I...

"Came for a week to revisit Halifax and area, but stay in a quiet area. It was great, caught Fleet Week, saw Peggy's cove, Lunenberg, all the stuff in Halifax, narrowly missed the incoming storm....Good Luck folks. Spent a lot of time talking with Nova Scotians who are great people, always had the feeling they'd give you the shirt off their backs."

"We had a very enjoyable stay. The home is pretty, clean, and has everything needed to stay. The in house laundry was excellent to have. Saved much time trying to find a place to do it. Nancy was a great host. She was very attentive to our requests and answered our questions in a very timely fashion. Would stay her again."

"The home was comfy, view was great; loved the hot tub!"

"We had a wonderful few days on the lake. 2 of us went back into the city each day to work, the other 2 worked from the cabin. In the evenings we relaxed in the hot tub, playing board games in the cabin, or relaxing on the dock. It is a wonderful cabin and we hope to be able to go back again. I highly recommend trying this place out."

"Wow! Whalesback Cottage was the Nova Scotia oceanside escape that we were looking for. Our own private space – no traffic … no crowds … and the only sounds were the waves hitting the rocks. We spent countless pleasant hours watching the tides change the view … scanned the ocean with binoculars looking for the whales folks see occasionally. A few excited moments at dusk when we caught sight of several whales waaaaay out – okay, turned out be distant shoals but what fun! Enjoyed long walks … to...
