Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Musquodoboit Harbour

We chose this place because it was close by and it is Winter. We had a big snow storm the day of our arrival. Fortunately we only had a 20 min drive and yet it felt like we were in the woods. Robert greeted us and showed us around his lovely home. It was a place where the whole family could spend Christmas Eve and Christmas Day together. All eight of us declared it was the best family Christmas we had in a long time. The beauty could be seen from every window. We were provided with everything we needed to have meals together and to play games and the young adults loved the hot tub. Robert had a beautiful Christmas tree set up and there was lots of little cozy spots to have one on one chats with each other. We realized after meeting Robert that he would be so cool to hang out with but he had other family plans. We are seriously considering making it a new Christmas Tradition.

We were celebrating a 50th birthday with a spa day nearby. The 4 bedrooms was a dream! The house had all we needed and then some. The host was amazing from beginning to end. Responsive. Proactive. Friendly. We spent 2 stormy nights and we're cozy the whole time. Thanks for the great weekend.

We often have stayed at Sherry’s cottage this time of year, and everything was lovely as expected. This was our first trip without snow and we were able to go for a lovely walk at nearby Rissers beach as well as sit on the patio in the afternoon sun and read with a glass of wine. We hope to visit someday to enjoy the river and gardens on the property, the reviews in the book sound amazing.

Kelly and Doris are incredibly friendly and quick to respond. Our stay was a last minute booking. Both kelly and Doris helped us feel right at home. The property is an Oasis. It has everything your family will need. The pictures do not do it justice. The quiet peacefulness you feel well sitting by the lake is everything you want and need. We will be coming back!

Our family had a fantastic Christmas at Deanna’s. It looks exactly as advertised, and is just really comfortable. Deanna was very helpful and timely in responding to questions, prior to, and during our stay. She was very flexible and accommodating to meet our timing needs. Awesome location and view. The accommodation is great, well taken care of and great for a family stay. Will definitely stay here again if back in the area.

It was our second time staying at Kim’s . The home and the setting is spectacular. Thank you Kim & Karl!

STUNNING property and location! The home was beautifully decorated with lots of modern touches. It included everything you needed. Lots of cookware/table settings/towels and shower items and was incredibly clean! We were a family of 7 and there was lots of space for everyone to be more than comfortable the whole stay. We loved that we were able to have the two sets of adults in each a bedroom and the kids all shared the room with two beds. The surrounding area is stunning. A quaint little village of locals and other Airbnb's and right on Peggy's Cove. It was incredible! The views are absolutely gorgeous. The only thing we didn't really like was the cost of the cleaning fee. We thought $250 was a bit much for a 3 night stay. Other than that, we truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to anyone!

Our stay had everything we could ask for! The accommodation was spotless, and the host’s instructions for check-in and house rules were clear and easy to follow. The host was friendly, accommodating, and responded promptly to any questions. The space was beautifully designed—warm, cozy, and relaxing—and each room had its own special highlight that made the home feel unique and welcoming. The kitchen was fully equipped with all the appliances we needed to prepare meals, plus a great selection of spices which was a thoughtful touch. We were very pleased with the experience and would highly recommend this stay to anyone!

Great location to stay!

My boyfriend and I had a great stay here. Cozy and private unit that’s just steps away from beautiful walking trails. Would recommend to anyone visiting the South Shore!

We really enjoyed our stay, wish we had more time to explore the area.

Bryon was very nice and helpful! Great place to stay. Close to downtown and to all the amenities. Highly recommend if you need a place to stay in Halifax.

A great place to relax and unwind. Hot tub was perfect and super clean. Host was very attentive.

We had an incredible stay. We have already started discussing rebooking this every year moving forward now.

We had nothing short of an amazing stay at Tee’s place. We had the easiest check in, everything was so clean and looked exactly like the pictures, we enjoyed the hot tub every chance we got, and we loved that he provided us with a speaker!! Tee was so accommodating and easy to communicate with, which we really appreciated. It was the perfect location, away from the hustle and bustle, and a short 5 minute walk to the bus stop.. This was so convenient for us, since we were able to buy a bus pass and take the bus to the water. It was also a 5 minute walk to a bunch of cute shops, restaurants and cafes which is super helpful if you ever just want to go grab a quick coffee or a pastry, or go for dinner close by. We definitely will be back and would recommend Tee’s place to anyone looking to stay in Halifax. Thanks Tee!

Excellent host and very hospitable. The accommodation was very clean. Location is great because it is very close to Dalhousie.

Had a wonderful stay. Perfect place to unwind after a long drive and recharge. Very peaceful and private. Had everything we could need and more. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

An amazing and peaceful escape to the woods. The cabin is perfect with a beautiful deck and view. Has just the right amount of comfort while allowing you to enjoy nature. Tina and Graham are fantastic hosts, kind people, and take pride in their perfect cabin in the woods. Our dog was welcome and comfortable with lots of space to explore, they even loaned us their visibility vests and a dog bed! We will definitely be coming back.

This tiny cabin was the perfect getaway spot for my pup and I. It’s extremely hard to find an AirBnb this cozy that allows dogs. Everything was so well thought through: from fresh coffee cream in the fridge, to doggie bowls and wet wipes. And the BED… omg the bed. The area it’s in is so beautiful and tranquil. Outdoor swing and patio area were a huge plus. Will come back!

We absolutely loved our stay over Easter weekend! Scott was very friendly and easy to connect with! It was a weekend of relaxation and connecting with nature! The hot tub was a great addition. Also the gorgeous wood work!! Also the sunrises from the loft were incredible!! We will definitely be coming back!

Lina’s place is extraordinary. So quiet and peaceful a great getaway from the city. Lina’s place had everything we could need for weekend away- they even had robes for after the hot tub! The king bed was super comfy! We will be back.

Thank you so much, Jon We were absolutely impressed with your cabin! The place was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We look forward to coming back!” “Love the experience using bio gas toilet” 💙😜😜

Great spot to visit for a weekend getaway! Even though the cabin is attached to their house, the hosts made us feel secluded and welcome.

Jill's place was clean and tidy, we liked the retro decor. Location was also great. We will stay there again.
