Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Halifax

My family and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at lake house cottage. The cottage was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, and the location was perfect for a relaxing getaway. The host ( Benjamin) , was incredibly friendly and helpful, responding promptly to all our questions. We especially appreciated the welcome note, thoughtful touches throughout the cottage. We highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable vacation." 5

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 had an absolutely fantastic time staying at Pat’s place. She is a wonderful person and amazing host. She was very helpful and informative throughout the trip, made sure that we had everything we needed. The accommodation was neat and tastefully decorated with paintings, providing a cozy retreat. Though the location is remote, the town centre is not so far. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend Pat’s place to anyone looking for a memorable stay!

Perfect getaway for my older teens and I! So much to do without leaving the property, darts, pool table, hot tub, hockey game on the theatre size screen. Excellent host, very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back!

It's a nice little house, well maintained and even though just off the main road, felt very private (it's raised above the main road). Very easy to find. At least the time of year I was there, the road wasn't busy, and the road noise was minimal; I couldn't hear it at all from the bedrooms. The rooms were well accommodated, and everything worked properly. For me, I was looking for a quiet place to rest as I explored the region. This house fit perfectly. For a family of about four, there are two kid's beds and a larger bed in the main bedroom. In the front of the house, you have two lounging areas, both with a TV. So, you can be together or break out into smaller groups. Overall, a nice place, and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

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

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 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.

This is a special place! We were extremely lucky with the weather and got a super sunny day (pretty rare for mid April). Beautiful scenery, the sun glinting on the water, the surrounding islands, the vegetation starting to wake up for spring! Highlights - exploring the trails on the island, enjoying the hot tub, watching the geese, plus the host was extremely friendly and responsive. Also really nice that there’s the option for a one night stay. My suggestions for improvements or for people booking a stay here - bring a bathrobe and slipper or sandals, I guess this wouldn’t be an issue in the summer but currently as it’s still pretty cold out - emerging from the hot tub into the April air and getting to the house was like doing a cold plunge lol. Also recommend bringing lots of layers, it is pretty windy and chilly at night. Overall great stay though, in the summer it would be awesome to swim off the dock, use the fire pit and lounge out on the rocks. Very cool place!
