Cottage holiday rentals in Shelburne County

Beautiful location, private, pristine, peaceful. Lots of space, well set up for water activities, fireside chats, and relaxing the day away. The sauna is a wonderful addition. Well stocked with lots of towels and firewood, great layout with an open kitchen and comfortable living room.

Marsha’s place was one of a kind. It was the perfect place for our honeymoon and will always be special to us. The location is unbeatable. The cottage itself was so relaxing, with plenty of comfortable places in the house with great views, games and activities to play and books to read, that we mostly wanted to stay at the house. Marsha gave us space and was also super friendly and helpful when needed. Thank you for making our honeymoon so special!

This is an absolutely amazing place. We will definitely be back. Dorian was great. We had some questions and he was very quick to respond. 10/10. Highly recommended.

We were so pleased with our stay! Beautiful location, wonderful sandy bottom lake, privacy, comfort, very well equipped kitchen. We will definitely book again!

The place was wonderful and well equipped. It was in beautiful condition and there so many convenience items available. It felt fresh and comfortable. We enjoyed walking to the beach, the hot tub and the fire pit area. A great spot to unwind.

Amazing beautiful and relaxing Air bnb will return! Also Priyanka was on the ball with any inquiries

Great spot to stay! Super close to both Summerville and Carters Beach. Very clean and comfortable place. We wish we could’ve made use of the fire pit/hot tub as it was lovely, it poured rain during our whole weekend stay. Would love to return to this same location for a future stay.

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful seaside Airbnb! The scenery was absolutely stunning, and it was just minutes away from some of the most gorgeous beaches we’ve ever seen. The space itself was spotless, spacious, and so thoughtfully designed—cute, and was stocked with everything we needed (and more!). It truly felt like a perfect little escape. We can’t wait to come back!

I can’t say enough about how magical Tracey’s place is. It provided such a great space for relaxation, tranquility, and much needed time away. Everything from the furniture to the bed and outdoors was comfortable and cozy. I can’t wait to come back.!

Nancy and Darren’s place was a slice of paradise. Our 2 big dogs, my husband and myself loved our time at the Red Door Barn. We started our mornings at Louis Head beach, located a short 5 minutes car ride. We had the beach for ourselves and our dogs loved playing fetch on the beautiful stretch of sand. The Red Door Barn is impeccable and Nancy thought of every little detail. It’s beautifully decorated. Extremely clean. And just perfect. We loved the extra dog friendly touches such as the doggie treats, the water bowl, the blankets and the big basket near the door full of little surprises. The kitchen is fully equipped. We cooked Lobster from the Wharf several times during our 12 nights stay. I highly recommend staying at The Red Door Barn. We can’t wait to come back.

This was a great stay and we hope to be back. The weather was less than favorable but it didn't matter, we loved staying here. Beautiful location and an amazing home. It had everything we needed!

We had a fantastic stay. Randy’s place had everything we needed and was exactly as described. The property was lovely and well kept, and there was a large, relatively private beach only a short walk from the house. Randy was a very responsive and attentive host, answered questions quickly and even left a little treat for our pup which she appreciated! We will definitely be back again!

Absolutely beautiful! We spent most of our time in Yarmouth, but if we came again, we would plan more time at the cottage. It’s clean, and quiet and just perfect for our family.

I had a different reason for staying at Mink Lake ... we are considering purchasing a property on Mink Lake and I wanted a place to stay that would allow me to get a better feel for the lake and the area. Amanda was super helpful in accommodating my timeline and duration and was very good at communicating throughout our reservation and stay. Much appreciated!

We came for a week to do a bit of business and a lot of R&R. The home was clean, well furnished and with comfortable beds. Great launch point for day trips and cozy place to wind down in the evenings. Amanda offered clear instructions for getting to and into the house, local requirements for household waste and recycling and was very responsive to texts. Would definitely recommend!

Clean, calm and cozy: Intelligently designed space, thoughtfully stocked, with inspiring ocean views, stunning night skies, nearby long sandy beaches perfect for winter walks and rural roads ideal for slow exploration. We especially appreciated the great kitchen (and nearby groceries), and fantastic host communications. This is the kind of listing that makes it easy to love travel. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I am not going to give away their secret but they went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. You will have to book to see how they look after you. Their home was exceptional roomy and extremely clean. Very well stocked for everything you need.

Nice Cottage with a view on the bay. Hummingbirds in the Garden. Keji Seaside just round the Corner. A white sand beach 3 minutes by foot from the cottage. ... and a bottle of red wine from Jane! We had a really relaxing stay in ten80

Beautiful spot nestled in the woods on a gorgeous lake. Plenty of outdoor activities and two large cabins for those rainy days. Can’t recommend enough if you are looking for a secluded get away.

Thank you so much for opening your camp to our family! it was a wonderful time. We hope to book again in the future!

Rent that house! It’s an amazing quiet location. The house is clean, functional with everything that you need. Amazing spot with a very nice beach. We really enjoyed the time we spent there.

We we in Nova Scotia for a couple of weeks, and stayed in a number of great places. Brian's guest house was by far the best part of our vacation. The home is on a very quite ocean-front road, and the property is very large. There are 13 acres with walking trails leading out the back of the property and into a beautiful forest environment. The guest home has everything, and truly made for a comfortable and exciting stay! Awesome guests, and we will be back!

Private, beautiful spot overlooking the ocean. Lots of room to relax and enjoy the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. Well equipped kitchen. Would happily return to this lovely retreat.

We had the most wonderful stay in this spacious and clean house . Beautiful views of the water watching the boats coming in and out . I would definitely stay again ! Thanks for the memories ❤️
