Home in Upper Tantallon
4.92 out of 5 average rating, 111 reviewsBeautiful new 6 bedroom lakehouse close to Halifax
This is a beautiful stay in a great location! The house was even nicer in person than the photos and the outdoors was incredibly beautiful. We loved the fire pit outside on a cold winter day and the inside of the house was great for a large group. The house was clean and we appreciated that she allowed us to check in a bit early. The only slight issue I had was I messaged her through Airbnb for check in information the week of my stay and did not receive a response, so the next day I sent her a text message. She did promptly respond to the text message so this may be the better way to reach her. I would definitely recommend this stay.

4.5 out of 5 average rating, 8 reviewsTranquil Chateau on Moody Lake
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful, spacious lakefront home! The lake was perfect for swimming, and we spent hours each day enjoying the water. The well-appointed kitchen made it easy to cook meals for our group of 9, and the location was ideal—just 10 minutes from grocery stores. The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 42 reviewsAnchorage House
We are so grateful to Katelyn & Lee for helping us pull off a magical experience for our family (17 total) who spent 6 days at this gorgeous property. The Anchorage House has plenty of space to gather & lots of nooks for small groups or privacy. There are amble bathrooms, which is essential for a big group. The hot tub was delightful-hosts even stopped by to freshen it mid-stay. They recommended a local caterer, the Savary Plate, who provided incredible meals, but the kitchen is well-equipped for cooking for a large group (which we did one night) and even has a commercial dishwasher! The location is perfect-we made day trips to Lunenburg, Halifax, Peggy’s Cove, and Digby for whale watching—not to mention local beaches minutes away. But we were just as enchanted sitting on the porch or down on the dock (evening kayaking). If characters were unlimited, I could go on and on about this wonderful property, but I also must mention the thoughtfulness of our hosts who felt like friends.

Great private place to stay in Lawrencetown. Close enough to the city to visit but excluded and private with ocean front. Would stay here again if in the area!

4.81 out of 5 average rating, 47 reviewsThe Nordique Retreat
We stayed with as a family of 4 for two nights - our 2 little girls loved the comfiness and coziness of Kelly's place - full of fluffy pillows, blankets, and lots of little places to snuggle in. There was a nice big kitchen to cook in, and the hot tub and pool were awesome. We would stay here again :)

Helen’s was a great host. Her air bnb was beautiful and cozy. We enjoyed our stay in Halifax. The home is located in a nice quiet neighbourhood and it was easy to access shopping, dinning and site seeing in down town Halifax. We will definitely stay here again! Nothing but 5 🌟.

This was a really stress free stay, Matthew went out of his way to make it feel like home, and was always helpful. Even brought a stroller for my toddler to play with. He was helpful and gave suggestions of things to do around town. The house was beautiful and extremely clean. I would definitely stay there again when I travel to Halifax again.

Home in Middle Sackville
4.91 out of 5 average rating, 43 reviewsCozy and spacious 1-bedroom apartment in friendly neighborhood
Great space. A little smelly/stuffy when I first got in but they provided an air wick which helped. You can hear footsteps upstairs but they are quiet and the place feels about as private as a basement suite without private access can feel. Hosts were great and very helpful. I'd stay again. Not much to do in the area and no restaurants/cafes nearby so make sure you have a means of transportation!

Ken’s place is even better than described! Very clean, very spacious for a couple! This location was an awesome choice for us, as we were in the area for the weekend! We don’t need to be in the downtown core of Halifax. Ken was very courteous and responsive with all communication.

4.87 out of 5 average rating, 39 reviewsCome Home to Downtown Dartmouth
We stayed at Wilfred's place while we were in town for our son's wedding. There were 7 of us that stayed there and it was plenty of room. The kitchen is very nice and very well stocked. The location is great! You can walk to downtown Dartmouth where there are shops and restaurants or you can jump on the ferry and go over to downtown Halifax. There is also a wonderful park right next door with a playground, splash pad, basketball, tennis/pickleball and walking paths. Wilfred did a great job with communication and check in was very easy. We will definitely look this home up again if we need a place to stay when we come to visit.

We loved this location - beautiful in the winter and can only imagine what it is like in the summer! The hosts were excellent - quick to reply when we reached out about anything and great communication. The home provided exactly what we needed for a large group of 8 adults, a toddler and an infant. We also appreciated that a couple of our special requests were accommodated.
