Guest TestimonialsAs soon as we arrived at the cottage we felt right at home. This place is beautiful. We have had a great week here and up until the last day the weather has been brilliant, especially for October. The cottage is perfect; absolutely everything you could need for a comfortable stay. We have visited some great places but unfortunately most attractions close at the end of September. We will just have to come earlier next time!
Sea Star Cottage is a roomy and spacious home, delightful for a family stay. The internet connection is superior. The shorefront is rocky and while you can't walk it to Carters Beach, the beach is a short drive down the road. It's also an easy walk, if you aren't carrying 'beach supplies'. Carters Beach is truly a gem and the tidal pools warm enough to wade in. While, there is a barbecue it is one of those small, portable Coleman's, that uses small canisters - not a full-size barbecue. Overall, a delightful location and cottage.
We had a wonderful time. The view was spectacular. We enjoyed hearing and seeing the seals from the deck of the cottage. We visited Shelburne and Lockeport a couple of times and visited Kejimkujik (the seaside adjunct as well as the park). We even took a trip up to Upper Clements Park. All in all, a great vacation. Thanks.
What a beautiful week. Hot and sunny! We had a great time here at Francis Louis House. It was instantly relaxing. What a beach! Timing is everything. Here comes hurricane Earl. We'd love to ride it out here but we have to leave. We will definitely return to the south shore.

A quiet day on the beach
A Lobster Fishing boat cruises by Carter's Beach in Port Mouton Nova Scotia
DescriptionOne 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 |
