| This cottage is just lovely! I was super impressed with all of the organization and Lorraine has customer service down to a tee! Our grandsons (7 and 9) just loved it and were so excited about the beach, dvds and games. The cottage is private and the lane was very quiet during the week. Wonderful view right on the water which was very warm as we had a great summer. The screened in porch was a great spot for reading and hosting a few friends who came to visit on various days. We were grateful for the Atlantic bubble as dear friends from Shediac came for supper. Tatamagouche is nearby with all of the amenities one may need. We were so happy that we booked another week next year.

| What a fabulous find!! This beautiful farmhouse on the ocean is quaint and full of character yet so well equipped and organized. Just pack your clothes and food - you're all set! I can't say enough good about the cottage, the sunsets, the perfect weather and our wonderful hostess, who took care of everything. We even saw an "earth-grazer" one night from the meteor showers :-)

| Honestly I cannot say enough about this wonderful cottage and our amazing host Lorraine . We have rented our chalet in the past and are familiar with both being renters and owners and I have never encountered someone as accommodating and thoughtful as Lorraine . She has anticipated every possible need and provided helpful personalized email hints and recommendations . Now about the cottage itself - it was so lovely for a family vacation ! The loft area was well received and used by my teens . The beds were comfy and the rooms all had lovely views . You are literally steps away from the warmest water I have ever encountered in Canada . It was magical to watch the tides and play all the games that Lorraine has thoughtfully provided ( croquet , washers , bikes , pool noodles for the ocean Etc ) The cottage has air conditioning and dyson fans to make sleeping comfortable . There are movies and games and the screened in sun room was used regularly . We sat out and enjoyed the fresh air and sound of the ocean without worrying about mosquitos. The outdoor shower was well used and appreciated . We wanted for nothing in the kitchen and Lorraine has made sure to label everything which makes life so much easier . Honestly I am sad writing this review because it means our time is coming to an end but we will definitely be back ! Thank you Lorraine - you and your cottage are outstanding !
