Guest Testimonials

We have stayed at this Sea Star Cottage on several occasions. It is a lovely and tranquil spot to get recharged and enjoy a vacation. It is very private and yet close to a beautiful beach! You will think you are in a paradise when you see the beach! The cottage is cozy and wonderfully decorated. We would highly recommend it to all ages!

South Shore, Nova Scotia
What a lovely place to spend our week here in Nova Scotia.!  The view of the harbour is spectacular.  We've enjoyed a glorious week of Indian Summer traveling along the lighthouse trail. A few favourite slights were Peggy's Cove and Mahone Bay and the Saturday morning Farmer's Market in Halifax.  Enjoying a soak in the hot tub after driving all day was so relaxing.  Great week!

Nestled in a beautiful location and only a short walk from Carter's beach (which looks almost tropical). Sea Star Cottage is perfect for honeymooners or a large family. Would definitely recommend it for a relaxing and refreshing vacation!

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.
