    Everything was great!

    An amazing place to see the Bay of Fundy’s end. You can watch the tide change from the front porch! The resident eagles were amazing to watch. Our host was warm, friendly, and full of great information. Breakfast was delicious and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. Highly recommend!

    This property is a true gem and owner Warren truly makes his guests feel welcome. He helped us when our car ran out of gas; he prepared an incredible breakfast; he was insightful with the history of the region. His property even has an eagle couple residing in one of the pine trees facing our room and the bay. It was absolutely charming and relaxing, quiet and inviting.

    We had to leave and continue our vacation

    Absolutely beautiful home with landscaping and amazing location. It sits on the Bay of 0Fundy in Nova Scotia which is renowned for its tides. You can sit in provided chairs near the cliff or on the porch,; there's even a hammock to relax in while you watch the changing landscape every 6 hours. If you need conversation, there is a nice living area where you can mingle and chat with the other guests. The host can fill you in on the locale, things to do and see, and the nearby restaurants. . Breakfast is an amazing affair prepared by the chef/host, don't miss it! If you need something else to see, ask him where the eagle likes to sit and you might be lucky enough to get pictures.

    We had an amazing experience at this B&B located right by the Bay of Fundy. The view was absolutely phenomenal! Warren, our host, was incredibly friendly and provided us with all the information we needed about the area and great tips for outings. The breakfast was generous and delicious, adding to the overall enjoyment of our stay. We even had the luck to spot a bald eagle perched in a tree right in front of the house! We truly enjoyed our time here and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

    Nothing.

    Beautiful old home on the beach with amazing views of sandy brown sea tides. We got acquainted with a resident bald eagle. The room is spacious and so is the bathroom. The b&b is cosy, homely, warm and welcoming. The breakfast is great, around a family table, together with other guests, which is lovely.

    The lodging is located a bit far from dining options. Plan to eat your evening meal prior to arrival, unless you want basic fare at the only eatery in Maitland, a diner.

    The rooms were large, the views right from the porch were wonderful. Breakfast was basic, but very good. Owner Warren was very helpful with suggestions of lots of places to see birds and views of the tidal change. It was very quiet during our 2 day stay.
