Beautiful, comfortable. Great view of sunset and stars! We hope to stay at Castaway Ocean Lodge again!
The cottage is a great getaway and in a wonderful location. There are so many different parts of the house to explore, and all very tastefully decorated. We loved the stack of games and the nook for watching movies, sitting in the window looking out at the apple trees and rabbits, and also the ease of navigating around the area from the house. We were in NS for a wedding, and it was a perfect launching pad for all activities over the weekend, and a lovely place to wake up and come back to at the end of the night! One tip: Make sure to pick up some provisions on your way, as there's not much in the area.
What a wonderful location and landscape to quiet the soul. The water, tides, pines, sunsets, wild life (including deck squirrel) are perfect. Scallops at Digby are everything they said they would be. Lobster at Rudders in Yarmouth was remembered days after the first bite. Charlotte's Lane in Shelburne was 2 thumbs way up! We are sorry we could not stay longer. Thanks!
What a gorgeous spot! We loved the house and the property - saw deer, bunnies and porcupines. Unfortunately the weather didn't co-operate - Hurricane Bill for our arrival and tropical storm Dan for our departure. Nothing could hide the beauty of this spot.

Carters BeachDescriptionOne of the nicest beach in the Liverpool area, Carter's beach is actually three beaches in one - all the beaches have slightly different orientations, so it is always possible to find a sunny spot out of the wind. The first beach you come to is a gentle crescent beach that is fairly shallow. It is boarded by sand dunes along the back. The next beach is a little rougher - it has a river that runs through it that is tidal. It is much easier to cross at low tide when it is about ankle deep that at high tide when it is waist deep. It is not a problem, but is definitely something to watch. When we went to the beach with our children (1 and 4) we played a lot in this river at low tide as the water was warmer and there were no waves. We love this beach.John and I went to Carter's beach on Canada Day in 2001. We were amazed. It looked like we had traveled thousands of miles to the Caribbean - the sand was white and the water turquoise. The illusion was broken when we dipped our toes into the ocean and realized that yes we were still in Canada! The water was not freezing, but it definitely was not tropical! LocationSea Star Cottage and Harbour Tide House in Port Mouton are the closest cottages to this beach.AddressPort Mouton, NSGoogle Map |
