Guest Testimonials Simply wonderful
We had a wonderful time staying at the Elm Tree Cottage. The outside is deceptive as the inside is spacious with plenty of amenities for the traveling couple. The master bedroom was large with queen bed, Bureau, an armoire for clothes storage. The bathroom was equally large with an updated walk in shower, toilet and sink. The kitchen was complete with dishwasher, washer / dryer, pots pans dishes and everything else you need. The living room was especially nice due to the pull-out Queen sofa bed which came in handy because I snore. The eating kitchen sits four comfortably as well as the walk out deck with screened in porch with seating for 4. We had a pleasant week and look forward to coming back to stay. The location of the cottage is on a quiet street just off 103 and perfect for taking day trips in the surrounding Nova Scotia area.
We have had a very enjoyable and relaxing time in Nova Scotia. We explored numerous beaches; ate at Charlotte Lane; got out on the water; poked around Shelburne; watched a meteor shower and spied deer as they crept across the lawn. Our cottage was well equipped for entertaining and cooking and especially relaxing! In fact, many hours were spent simply reading on the porch. We even managed to forget which day it was for a while!
Beach Heaven is a very modern, well-appointed property with beautiful views and quick access to a lovely beach. The hot tub and saunas are nice bonuses too! The kitchen is well-equipped making meal prep a breeze.
The location is ideal for day trips to different areas on Nova Scotia's south shore, and is handy to a number of parks and bird sanctuary areas. WOW - this was the first word from our mouths as we drove down the driveway and saw this beautiful place! We have had a wonderfully peaceful and serene week here at Castaway Ocean Lodge and the hot tub has been a god send and has enabled us to be outside enjoying the veiw even through the wind and the rain. A fabulous haven that will live long in our memories!

DescriptionSituated on 3 private acres, Sea Star Cottage is a charming Nova Scotia vacation home in the picturesque fishing village of Port Mouton. Set back from the road and screened by mature trees and bushes the large garden is private and safe for little ones to play.Sunlight streams in through the windows giving this Nova Scotia cottage a bright and cheerful atmosphere. Antique furnishing and modern decor have been tastefully combined to create an attractive family friendly home that appeals to both adult and child alike. The main floor features a living room, dining room, study, 3-piece bathroom and a spacious eat-in kitchen. The study is bursting with interesting books and games, while the living room is adorned with a fascinating collection of local maps and sea charts. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, 2 with double beds and the other with a queen size bed. Two of the rooms have adjoining private 3-piece bathrooms. The deck; complete with gas BBQ and lawn chairs extends the living area and provides a vantage point to enjoy the pastoral view: a fenced pasture that is home to a family of friendly sheep. There is a path that leads through the pasture and onto a wooded track that leads to a private rocky shoreline with a panoramic view of Port Mouton Bay and its many islands. With rolled beach stones and large granite boulders, the waterfront is just waiting to be explored. Around ever bend is a new adventure and a new ocean view. A short walk down the road brings you to Carter's Beach, one of the jewels of Nova Scotia's South Shore, with its triple crescents of fine white sand ringed by dunes and wrapped around the crystal clear, turquoise waters of Port Mouton Harbour. The unsurpassed natural beauty of Port Mouton has led Parks Canada to preserve its headlands as a national wilderness area containing two pristine beaches. The eastern entrance to the national park is within easy hiking distance of Sea Star Cottage. For more hiking, head to Kejimkujik National Park's Seaside Adjunct wilderness where you will find noisy seals basking on the rocks and a multitude of sea birds overhead. So for a holiday that involves around going to the beach, enjoying a leisurely evening meal, playing games around the kitchen table and exploring the local area, Sea Star Cottage offers all that and more!

Guestbook"We enjoyed our stay at the rustic and quaint Sea star cottage in July. There was more than enough room for our family of five. Importantly, the Wi-Fi worked well for our kids :) Having laundry and all the amenities of a regular home made our stay comfortable. The location is very quiet, and the grounds around the home are almost park-like, with mature apple trees and a well-kept lawn. There is a nice walk down the pathway through the back field to the rocky shoreline. The night skies were full of bright stars; I was able to photograph the Milky Way with ease.Carter's Beach is an easy 10-minute walk down the road, but the area is also central to other beautiful beaches, with shopping (and a great skate park) in Liverpool, only 15 minutes' drive away. Locally we had a good take-out dinner from the Seascape restaurant just down the road. Overall our stay was very enjoyable, and I would not hesitate to recommend it as a perfect vacation home for a family." Ian & Jessica, Halifax, Canada |
