We've had a wonderful time here. It is a beautiful cottage and well-equipped. You really own a lovely property! The cottage was perfectly clean when we arrived. Thank you cleaning lady! This is our first time in Nova Scotia. We loved to spend relaxing days with out children at Carter's Beach, The weather was wonderful-sunshine and warmth. A place we can recommend is the pub at the Lane's Privateer Inn in Liverpool. Extremely friendly staff, great burgers, good beer. Thanks for a perfect holiday at your cottage.

I am leaving tomorrow but I don't want to go. I knew the moment I stepped into this beautiful cottage that I would have a wonderful week! The cottage, the weather, Carter's Beach, Summerville, the surrounding area and general good feelings generated from the ocean and fresh air was so much worth coming to Port Mouton.

 Perfect House, Perfect Place
Our second time at Sanderling Beach House, and we couldn't dream for a better place. We love Nova Scotia for the untouched nature, and unspoiled beaches, lakes, and forest, but high standard accommodations are some times hard to find. Sanderling beach house is the best place we could have: charming, on the edge of the Ocean, tasteful, functional, very well appointed, clean. A wonderful feeling of home pervades the house. The kitchen is fully equipped, ready for baking, cooking, BBQing, etc. The 3 bedrooms are large, with comfy beds. The beach is long with fine silver sand, and hardly anybody is ever around. Our children and ourselves spent wonderful days playing and swimming (yes, swimming!). The night skies are among the most beautiful and starry in the whole planet! UNESCO's Starlight Foundation declared the area part of North America's first Starlight Preserve, on top of the designation as a protected biosphere!
