Cottage vacation rentals in Guysborough County

Cozy cabin, private and quiet. Pet friendly, so that was a plus! I didn't end up getting to check out the common areas. The cabin being 420 friendly made me feel at home. I came to unwind and get away from work/life. This cabin checked all the boxes. I do wish I could have stayed a second night. I would go back again, next time take the time to check out/enjoy common area(s)

We booked super last minute so we could stay longer in town to visit my grandparents - we were beyond pleased with our stay! We had asked the host if there was any stores near by as we weren’t familiar with the area just to grab the kids some hot dogs but nothing was close nor near by and the host actually came down with hot dogs, buns and ketchup for my kids! Such a sweet gesture!!! The cabin was adorable - above expectation! Will definitely book again!

Simona and Sorin's place is a real gem. The pictures don't do it justice. It's such a beautiful open space and was absolutely immaculately clean. The views were beautiful and the surroundings are so peaceful. The house is very well appointed with everything you would need and the hosts were very responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here. The details in the house were very much appreciated, like really nice linens and a well stocked kitchen. The hot tub is also a bonus. We enjoyed sitting in there in the evening and soaking in all of the surroundings.

It was a great little house to rent out and included anything we could have ever needed. The house had lots of character and was very welcoming. The hosts were very accommodating and ensured our stay went well. The kayaks hadn't been taken out yet for the season and within an hour they had been pulled out for us with life jackets and paddles provided. Totally recommend this Air BnB!

It’s a Shore thing rental was absolutely beautiful! Great for a relaxing and fun getaway! Jennie messaged with local things to do and was always communicative if we needed or wanted anything! The place was so beautiful and clean, and the aesthetic was amazing! The hot tub was amazing and the view was even better. Beds were super comfy as well. If we forgot anything, this place had it! The bathroom had luxury products, with toiletries, makeup, hairspray all nine yards and great shower products! Leaving a welcome message to my friends and me! Great girls weekend getaway! We cannot wait to come back and enjoy it again! Thank you guys once again!

Overall a great stay at a lovely cottage. Kristy was extremely responsive to questions during our stay. We had an early spring visit so the road in was a little messy, but that is no fault of the hosts/cottage. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

My boyfriend and I stayed 2 nights at Tara’s cottage and we can’t say enough good things about it! It was very clean and had everything you might need for your stay. The hot tub and wood stove made our stay feel very cozy and relaxing! Not to mention the amazing lake view! Tara was very helpful and quick to respond with any questions we had. We will definitely be back in the warmer months to enjoy the lake! Thanks again Tara!

Liane was an extremely helpful and proactive host. The cottage and amenities were clean and functional. Everything made for a great weekend away.

This was a very beautiful place to stay! It was so nice waking up to the view. Lelia was also very friendly and accommodating. The beach was also very beautiful. We would love to come again in the future!

Super laid back area, lots of room in the backyard if you were to travel with kids or pets! Super open concept and was super homey

Very relaxing spot, excellent view sitting right in a little bay on the ocean so the water was always calm. If you have kayaks make sure you bring them it would be a perfect spot. We tried fishing from shore but I think you might need to get out in the cove a bit where it’s a little deeper. Very cute spot loved drinking coffee every morning on the deck looking at the view!

Enjoyed spending time with family at the cottage-cozy, well stocked kitchen and comfortable furniture and beds. Sarah is very responsive and helpful - will no doubt return!

Great hosts. Went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we need, and very responsive. Very cozy and super comfy home. Would stay again

The feeling of coming into this cozy cottage on a rainy, cold October afternoon was amazing - Jody had a crackling fire going in the wood stove and it was as if we were coming home. The dogs loved the wooded trails around the large, private property and the highlight was the adorable bridge crossing a wide brook. The area was peaceful and quiet and we highly recommend it.

Eagle Valley Cottages is a favourite of mine! Barbara’s personal touches are delightful. The cottage is pristine, warm, cozy, with beautiful scenery. The grounds are impeccable! Thank you Barbara, as always your personal touches go above and beyond!

If you are looking for a little getaway to heaven on earth, this is the place!! My husband and I, plus our two small dogs, rented this place for a quick fall vacation. We were awed from the moment we arrived. Immediately we could feel all the stress melt away and felt right at home. Our city dogs got a taste of real freedom. Running in the big yard and gardens, walking the beach off leash and hunting mice in the fields. We have already booked a much longer stay for next fall and we can’t wait!

great place! welcoming and responsive hosts quiet and nice setting

What a wonderful place! We had such a lovely time and did not want to leave. The property is gorgeous all around and the view is absolutely spectacular. It’s quiet and peaceful with lots of space yet still close to amenities. The cottage is beautiful inside too - it’s very clean, cozy and comfortable. The hosts and property manager are incredible with excellent communication. Every aspect of our stay was delightful and we would love to return!

Breathtakingly beautiful

The house on the lake was just what we needed to enjoy a cousin get-away! The house has plenty of indoor space to socialize and relax. The outdoor space was stunning ~ loons, heron, and otters entertained us in the lake. There are extra bedrooms and bathroom in the converted garage. It is very peaceful and the scenery is beautiful.

Definitely deserves the Super Host status. Would recommend to anyone.

Great place! Location was beautiful and house was clean and tidy!! Had a comfortable stay!

I can't say enough about this place! It was VERY peaceful and private with a gorgeous sand beach right at the doorstep. We wondered why it was called 'Seal Rock House' until we woke up one morning and saw the seals!!! We spent hours watching them and it was a highlight of our tour around the province. The house was spotless, had comfy beds, and we loved the design. We felt at home. Christoph was an amazing host. He was very friendly and left great info about the surrounding area, plus some menus we ordered from quite frequently! An incredible place to stay and an extremely reasonable price! Very highly recommended!!!!!

Jared and Toni sent us a welcome message to make sure we made it in ok. The place was immaculate and recently updated, rustic lux. The bunkhouse, or shedroom, as we called it, was external to the house and was super quiet when the wind wasn't howling (we showed up in a storm). The view of the bay had plenty of wildlife and the supplied binoculars made the viewing that much better. Supplied Keurig coffee was a nice touch, but we opted for the coffee shop in Sheet Harbour most days, the oyster stout from Sober Island Brewing at night. Try the Spry Bay special pizza from the campground down the road, you can thank me later. We would certainly stay again, if they would have us.
