3 Reviews of Property 395272 in Antigonish, Nova Scotia

Where to start! The Home is simple gorgeous. Paul has designed the house to capture the maritime essence of the property, with windows and open spaces galore looking out over the Northumberland Straight. We spent the majority of our time in the Florida Room, reading, listening to music piped through the house-wide speaker system, enjoying the cool on-shore breezes, and counting the Seals, Whales, and Dolphins, as they cruised on by just off-shore. The flocks of Gannets rocketing from great heights into the ocean for fish, was something straight out of National Geographic, and soundeds like gunfire in the distance. Sunny, every day we were here, with the kind of Sunsets one would expect in Honolulu. As far as appointments are concerned, there’s a surplus of everything that you could ever need. Everything is new, sparkling, and fresh. The Egyptian cotton linens & monogrammed bedding and towels was a very nice touch! The water was calm, and warm enough that our two young children frolicked for hours on the shore. New kayaks allowed us to explore the a length of the coastline that’s normally inaccessible, hunting for driftwood pieces, seal colonies, and the most incredible array of rocks one is ever likely to see. Don’t know how we are going to get the 100lb we collected across the border! The location is ideal for day-trips to the Cabot Trail, Halifax, Bay of Fundy, or Parrsboro for Fossil Hunting. We found a 300 million year old reptile footprint! Best souvenir ever! Antigonish is a quick 15 minutes away, where you will find modern restaurants, provisions, and the vastly entertaining hordes of brawny men in Scottish Kilts strolling the town. Lastly, there’s Paul and his family. 100% warm, welcoming, generous, considerate, and incredibly friendly. The kind of people so nice, you want to come back just to see them again. This is without question our best VRBO experience ever. Our only regret is for tomorrow, when we head home to Michigan. Thank you for all the incredible memories. The Stewart Family.
