Such a beautiful b and b. Michael and Thomas were amazing hosts. Our room was lovely and super clean with a view of the water. Their breakfasts were made to order with eggs, bacon or sausage and a variety of fruits, toast and delicious banana bread. A wonderful bed and breakfast experience. Walking distance to everything. Wished we had stayed longer. Thank you

A quirky 1800’s house in a charming little town. Hosts were friendly, accommodating, available! Good meal at the pub across the street on their waterfront deck. Good stop close to Lunenburg. Steps up to our room (we’re in our 70’s) and host jumped in and carried our bags - whew! Would definitely come back.
Overlooking Mahone Bay.

Awesome property! Beautifully maintained!! The hosts were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and comfortable and the attached bathroom spacious and clean as well. Breakfast was served in the beautiful dining room and catered to every need and want, from fruits and breads to cereal and pancakes or full traditional bacon/sausage, eggs and toast all made to order. We would certainly stay again when in the area. Highly recommend!
