Holiday rentals in Shelburne

Great host, great house, great location! This is a very private house that is not far from town, only 20 minutes from the ferry. The house is clean, well appointed and spacious. It’s right on the water which gives hours of enjoyable relaxing both day and night. Speaking of night, you haven’t seen a night sky like this, it’s really amazing! This home was the perfect temporary home base for me and my family as we explored southern Nova Scotia. The host is excellent at communicating clearly. My family of 4 was more than comfortable during our stay here. We’d definitely stay again! Thank you for a great stay!

Peaceful and relaxing. A home away from home with its beautiful open concept, spacious kitchen, large open deck, and the best views ever from the primary bedroom. Just about everything you'd need is supplied. Extremely accommodating with our 4 cats and never any hesitation. Check in is scheduled for 3:00PM, but we had a message saying we could check in earlier. The view is absolutely stunning all throughout the cottage from the beautiful north Atlantic ocean across the street to the family of three deer casually exploring the area. The fireplace is the perfect way to warm up in winter. I can only imagine how nice it would be in summer with two beaches so close by. We enjoyed our Christmas immensely at The Lookout that we were sad when it came time to leave.

This property represents an exceptional standard that all hosts should aim to meet. Jennifer was very friendly and responsive, and overall a great host! The property is private and nestled nicely among the surrounding forest with river and ocean views, providing a tranquil and beautiful backdrop. The close proximity of this property to Carters Beach, White Point, Liverpool, and the rest of what this gorgeous part of NS offers is especially appealing. The home is warm, modern, well-designed, and pristinely clean. The amenities gave our family all we needed, but the added thoughtful touches set this home apart: a well-appointed kitchen, cozy blankets, minimalist charging bars, and nice towels/ linens. This is a special spot. I expect we will be back whether in the summer, or really anytime of year. We are experienced travellers with AirBNBs, and give the highest recommendation for this property and our host!

The Cottage looked exactly as pictured. Clean, private, easy to get in, with beautiful views. The host answered us timely and was very kind. Would definitely recommend a stay with them to a friend!

We had a wonderful 5 day stay. So peaceful, quiet and restful. Spectacular sunsets. The cottage was well appointed. Everything was in working order and easy to operate. Easy access which was great for my 97 year old mother. Melissa has certainly earned and is deserving of the title super host. She was easy to reach, extremely helpful and went out of her way to make connections for us in the community.

Comfortable with a beautiful view.

My 3rd time staying at Ross's place - 1st time in the Winter (previous times in the Fall). Lovely place for a peaceful and quiet getaway. Look forward to another stay in the future.

For some places on earth there just doesn’t seem to be the proper words to describe its beauty and the way it makes you feel. This is one of those places for me, being there allows my body to relax and my mind to quiet. This was our second time staying at Driftwood by the bay, it is medicine for the soul.
