Tranquil, relaxing and cozy. We love the location. Just outside of Mahone Bay, and a short drive to Bridgewater or Lunenburg. Lots to explore, see and do in this area! Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the deer in the morning and at the end of the day. The host provides a fantastic digital guide! Would definitely stay again!
We liked that this was a beautiful house in a wooded setting. We also liked that it was just a short drive to the restaurants and shops in Mahone Bay. The house included everything we needed during our stay.
Très bel emplacement et le chalet est parfait avec beaucoup de commodités
Absolutely the best place we’ve stayed in on the south coast of NS! Set back from the road, this two-storey open concept floor plan oozes charm and character and has everything you need for a relaxing getaway with all the comforts of home. With loads of room, comfortable beds, a fully-equipped kitchen, gas barbecue, washer and dryer, the house is tastefully decorated and immaculate! Secluded and quiet but with quick and easy access to Mahone Bay, Lunenburg, Chester and beyond. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the deer roam the property. The lobster stained glass window in our bedroom was a beautiful piece of artwork to wake up to each morning…lit up by the morning sun.Mahone Bay has many beautiful shops to explore, quaint pubs and outstanding restaurants! So glad we chose to stay in Canada this vacation and take advantage of this slice of East Coast paradise. We will definitely return. A special thanks to our hosts who responded within minutes to our questions and provided a wealth of information and suggestions on the Mahone Bay/Lunenburg area, both before and during our visit, that made our vacation special and memorable.
We had a very relaxing stay at Knotting Hill in August 2025. The host’s warm hospitality and special thoughtful touches were apparent leading up to and throughout our stay. Our 8 year old daughter noticed right away 2 Hardy Boys mysteries on the bookshelf and set to read both before we left. We played board games, enjoyed morning coffee and evening stargazing on the deck, grilled and enjoyed seeing so many deer in the yard during our stay.There was plenty of local information in the house to help you get acquainted with the area and the host shared suggested daily itineraries which were very helpful and eased our daily planning. I’d highly recommend this home in Mahone Bay for a memorable and relaxing trip to Nova Scotia.
Lovely cottage on a private lot. Lots of amenities close by.
We have stayed at more than twenty VRBO homes over the years and this one is definitely one of the best experiences we’ve had. Jacqueline is so thoughtful. Her replies were immediate. The home is lovely and very comfortable-the bed was great even for my husband who has a bad back. I usually cook more than I did this time and everything I would have needed was right there! Thank you for a lovely visit - we wish it had been longer.
Beautiful and so comfortable. What an attention to detail in decorating. We were fortunate on a few occasions to watch the deer eating on the property.
Easy check in, very responsive host, and let us check in early and check out late! Beautiful property, complete with a family of deer! Would love to return during a warmer month to fully enjoy cottage life!
We loved the home. Well stocked.
