Family-friendly holiday rentals in Mahone Bay

Such a beautiful AirBnB. It was perfect for our family of 6 adults and 1 infant. Spacious and wonderful views. The kitchen was perfect for preparing meals. Lots of outdoor sitting areas, and we enjoyed the hot tub, outdoor fireplace and canoeing. A great location for exploring Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, and several beaches. Melissa was a wonderful host 😊. You won’t regret staying at Three Sheep’s to the Wind.

We had the pleasure to stay for the month of August. Great location overlooking a lake, just a short walk to a small quiet beach on the ocean. An old railway track converted to biking/walking path close by. Close to groceries and restaurants. Great location for day trips to Peggy’s cove/Halifax boardwalk/many parks and beaches. The home had everything you need. Just bring your swim trunks and spirit of adventure. We highly recommend a stay at this lovely spot.

Had a great stay.

Our second summer stay was just as wonderful as the first. More familiar this time, so the whole family felt right at home. Chris was once again very warm and welcoming in his communications. Look forward to our third stay next year if we can be so fortunate.

We had such a wonderful stay. The property is so beautifully landscaped by Bruce and Leesa. You can see the love and care they put into it. The inside was no exception. It felt warm and inviting. Leesa and Bruce are wonderful people. Very friendly and put us at ease right away. Really really nice couple. Don't think twice about booking this place. You will not be disappointed. We will be coming back and will book Leesa and Bruce's place without a question. Thanks for making us feel so welcomed.

My partner and I wanted a quiet getaway to celebrate a milestone. We wanted nature, privacy and rustic farm vibes with a touch of romance. The place was perfect for what we needed, and Heather was so lovely to deal with! The hottub was divine under the rain, and interacting with the goats was magical. Thank you!

We had an amazing stay at Beth’s place!! Exceeded expectations, you can tell they put a lot of thought in making sure you have everything you need during your stay.

Great stay! The place is exactly as described and the pictures show. You can’t do better for location! You can walk anywhere downtown and have so many new restaurants just below the condo. There is ample space for everyone and the kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans for cooking at home. Chris was a fantastic host, he answered all my questions promptly and checked in as well. I will definitely come back and wouldn’t hesitate to use Chris to help find me a space.

Most of what I'm saying is echoing what other Guests have said - it's all still true for 2024: Morry is great to work with, cottage is clean and well-equipped,  the views here are wonderful, beds are comfy and the layout worked well for us with the two main floor bedrooms on opposite sides.  The kitchen is a good size and the two full bathrooms are like new. There's a great hike trailhead a stone's throw away and, if you haven't already, you will fall in love with Prospect, NS!!

This place was just what we needed for our stay in Halifax. We were within walking distance of local restaurants and a cycle shop where we could rent bikes. The inside was cosy, clean, and really made you feel welcome. Andrea was responsive and a lovely host! Would definitely recommend. :)

Catherine's place was excellent and she is a great host! She was very responsive and helpful before, during and after booking. She happily accomodated our special requests. Her place is very thoughtfully designed and stocked with everything you could need (better than any other air bnb I've been to!). Lots of nice personal and local touches as well. It is located in a great area - quiet, beautiful beach, and awesome coastal hike. You will not be disappointed! Thank you, Catherine!

We had a great stay in this quaint coastal town of Conquerall Bank along the LaHave River at this cottage. The space provided was ample and the view from the rooms was amazing. We felt very welcomed by Marc and his pup Austin the first day. He told us about many things to do in the area and we highly recommend the Lahave Bakery a short drive away for breakfast. The cottage is very centrally located along Nova Scotias South Shore and was a great relaxing midpoint for our trip to Cape Breton. We were able to explore the area and ended up at Cresent beach around dusk and it was absolutely stunning. Highly recommend this host and property. (note: The cottage is part of the Lighthouse Motel Properties but is secluded and detached from any other guests - all very well maintained and a pleasure to stay at.)

We had an incredible trip at Candace's place. The home was stunning and was perfect for our group of 6. If you have the opportunity to book your trip to Halifax here, I would definitely recommend!

PAM &J.P on été extraordinaires. Nous avons été ravis par notre séjour et sommes tombés en amour avec la Nouvelle-Ecosse. Les animaux étaient un extra inattendus. Gustave va beaucoup s’ennuyer de Maple. Petit commentaire QUI N’EST PAS UNE CRITIQUE. Le réfrigérateur n’est pas très grand alors, ne pas faire une trop grosse épicerie à chaque fois. Nous sommes arrivés avec trop de choses et tout ne rentrait pas. Mais encore une fois ce n’est pas grave. Il y une épicerie pas tres loin. Ça se fait très bien. Faut juste pas prévoir trop longtemps d’avance si vous avez une grosse famille comme la mienne. La piscine est extraordinaire!!!!! Près de pleins de belles plages . Nous avons passé un super beau moment en famille!!!

One of my favourite Air B&B’s to date! Angela was such a thoughtful host and all of her recommendations were incredible (Bar Kismet, The Narrows, parks, breweries, etc). We had our pup and it was the ideal place, especially for wanting to get around mainly on foot. LOVELY neighborhood. We can’t wait to come back!

This was a great place to spend a couple days in Dartmouth - the patio and gardens in the back were the highlight and I spent as much time as I could back there. This will be on the list to rent again next time I’m in town.

NICE PLACE IN A CHARMING RESIDENTIAL AREA OF HALIFAX We had a very good time in Peter's place. Everything we needed was available there, including very friendly and helpful conversations with Peter. We recommend Peter's place for people who enjoy privacy, calm and charming residential area. There is a direct and convenient bus service to downtown (# 7A and 7B).

Merveilleux séjour. Nous recommandons a 100%. Idéal pour famille avec bébé (chaise haute, parc, et tout le nécessaire pour bebe). Vue magnifique sur la marina. Proprete impeccable! Nous reviendrons certainement.

We had a great girl’s weekend at Dawn’s place! The property is beautiful, the house is spacious and beds were comfy. Dawn was very helpful and a great host. Would definitely stay again!

Paul & Patti made a special occasion that much more memorable. Our trip was made even better because of their recommendations and local knowledge and genuine care. The kinds of folks you root for in life. The views are stunning. Spend time on the deck as well. Oh, and breakfast was an incredible experience that showcased Chef Garrin’s talents and joy of hospitality.

Catherine’s place is exactly as she described. It is clean, well appointed and comfortable. The pull-out couch is the most comfortable one that I have ever slept on and my aunt said that the bed was also very comfy. Catherine has great books, a fabulous selection of games and other thoughtful touches that make it a good place to stay. We sat out on the back patio in the evening and enjoyed the view of the Bedford Basin and Catherine’s pretty garden. The neighbourhood is residential with lots of lovely trees. It’s a great spot!

We really enjoyed the view from the deck and the living room . This place is a GEM . Having the beautiful view of the bay and yachts , being so close to the water made our stay that much more enjoyable . The apartment was nicely furnished and well equipped . It was perfect for a short or long stay and we would love to come back again .

I stayed one wonderful night at Lunenburg. Tim and staff is responsive. The place is super cozy and clean. The view is super, with a huge window looking right by the waterfront, and location is perfect, right by the center and close to everything. My hubby especially loved the shower with hot waterand great pressure. Super nice sleep on the comfy bed. Highly highly recommend!!! Thank you so much Tim, you made our stay at Lunenburg so enjoyable 😊

A truly magical place. Location is ideal to visit so many different towns, trails and excursions. However, starting the morning off on the deck watching the sunrise and then ending the day cooking on the BBQ. The house is fully equipped with every kitchen gadget needed. 3 good sized bedrooms with comfortable mattresses. There is a wonderful community feeling.
