Prospect Cottage | Idyllic Oceanfront Cottage, Near Peggy's Cove!

2 Bedroom Cottage in Prospect

This cottage is in a gorgeous location. It sits on 3 acres on a granite bluff overlooking the ocean, with greater than 180 degrees of spectacular water views. This is prime Nova Scotia ocean frontage. The views are unsurpassed. New for 2018- New bedroom suite with full bath and new Laundry Room, a dishwasher and new kitchen cabinets!
You would be at a peaceful oceanfront retreat, but Halifax, a major international city is only 20 minutes away! Prospect is also about 10 miles from the major tourist destination of Peggy's Cove, which is a quaint oceanfront village, with a much visited lighthouse on a granite coast. Prospect is an oceanfront fishing village. The village is fairly quiet, but the people are very friendly and can share their way of life with you. Waterfront recreation abounds with everything from sea kayaking to sailing, water skiing, motor boating, fishing and whale watching. There is a two mile stretch of undeveloped public land ('crown land', as it is nominally owned by the queen of England) right next to the cottage that is a fabulous place to walk, run mountain bike or hike. The coast is spectacular to drive along with many picturesque villages such as Peggy's Cove, Lununberg, Mahone Bay, and Chester nearby. Restaurants are plentiful, with delicious seafood. Halifax is a major international city and has first class activities and attractions, including Celtic music, professional sports and entertainment, the Citadel fortress, a charming waterfront, and an excellent nightlife.
This is a simple, but neat and comfortable cottage with all the basic amenities, and then some, on a spectacular location. I constantly update/upgrade it. It has free Wi Fi internet and cable TV. New Master Suite 2018. New Laundry area 2018.
If you are looking for 5-star resort accommodations, this is not for you! But if you want to be surrounded by gorgeous oceanfront in your private getaway, while still having a major international city nearby, you will be very happy. The cottage is best for 4 people, but there are a couple of beds in the unfinished attic, as well as a sleeper sofa.
Please note Nova Scotia and Canada tax of 15%. Pet fee $100/pet. PRICES ARE IN USD. If you wish to pay in $CDN, let me know and we will figure out a conversion rate for that time.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay in prospect. The area is beautiful and the people were friendly. The hosts were very friendly and responsive to messages. The house was clean, in good condition and well appointed. On the listing it listed a hot tub which we were very excited about. There wasn’t one at the property. The listing has been corrected and the host offered a little compensation for the misunderstanding. Also, when I messaged the host about the sleeping configurations (kids are at the age where they won’t sleep in the same bed) they let me know that there were twin beds in the upper ‘attic’ available. The attic was a true attic and not useable at all. This wasn’t an issue though as there was a pullout couch so our family had lots of space and was happy. I would definitely recommend this area, property and host. The view was second to none and the walking trails close by amazing. A couple of hiccups but overall a great stay.
