Log cabin by the lake

5-star house on the lake

We (family with 3 children) spent four wonderful weeks in this dreamlike place. The house is somewhat secluded in the forest with a fantastic view of Sloans Lake. The lake is very clean, has velvety water, pleasant temperatures and invites you to swim from early to late. It is also wonderful under a twinkling starry sky. The equipment of the house is perfect, everything has been thought of and it is in a very clean and well-kept condition. Especially the kitchen is very well equipped, even for five people. Nothing is missing! Even the beds are made and the towels are changed weekly by the landlords. The holiday can start immediately, you feel at home right away! The large fridge and freezer offer enough space to stock up on food. You can do this wonderfully in Yarmouth, about 20 km away. The leisure facilities are varied, there are various board games, books, bathing island, canoe, fishing equipment, fire bowl, barbecue and much more. We didn't get bored for a single moment during the four weeks. We especially enjoyed the time we spent together as a family, but also the freedom for each individual. So everyone had their favourite activity: Kayaking, fishing, jumping into the water from the jetty, gliding across the lake on the bathing island, building a hut in the forest... We combined the four weeks in Canada with a few days in New York afterwards and thus had a successful mixture of nature, relaxation and sightseeing. A big thank you goes to the lovely landlords! You can tell that it is a matter of the heart for them that the guests feel comfortable. They always have an open ear for questions and give valuable tips on excursions and shopping opportunities as well as real insider tips for fishing spots with a guarantee of success! With this spot of earth and your cordiality, you have managed to make this holiday one of our best!

Unique holiday experiences

We spent two fantastic weeks in this absolute dream house with our adult daughter. The location of the holiday home is really unique. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the possibility to swim in this beautiful and extremely clean lake at any time of the day or night, to take boat trips or just lie on the jetty and experience the most diverse moods. The furnishing of the house is perfect. Nothing is missing - everything is well maintained and very clean. But what we remember most are the landlords, who are on site and looked after us with incredible cordiality from the first reception until our departure. We very much hope that this was not our last stay in this place.

Thank you for a wonderful time !

As big Scandinavia and Iceland lovers, we wanted to try Eastern Canada and were not disappointed with Nova Scotia and this very well-maintained and clean holiday home. The equipment of the house leaves nothing to be desired, everything you need is there. The internet connection is also good. The house is beautifully situated directly on Sloans Lake. At the time of our trip in August, it was a very pleasant temperature for swimming or kayaking / canoeing at any time of the day. The house stands alone on a large plot of land, you are completely to yourself. So you can enjoy the peace and solitude without being too far away from civilisation. There are plenty of opportunities for shopping in Yarmouth. The transport links are good, all the sights of the southern part of Nova Scotia can be explored in a day trip. The landlords are on site, are very friendly and accommodating and are available for advice and assistance if needed. The house is ideal both for exploring Nova Scotia's south and for a relaxing holiday in a very beautiful setting. The location on the lake is just terrific. We would make this choice again a second time and always think back to this great time.

Canada - like something out of a picture book

We spent two wonderful weeks in this holiday accommodation with our two children and enjoyed every single day very much. The children especially loved the lake with the bathing jetty. The water was surprisingly warm and very clean, inviting for swimming at any time of the day. The holiday house exceeded all expectations. In addition to the many little things in the kitchen that are often missing in other holiday homes, there were also toys for the children, a stocked bookshelf, as well as a grill and fire pit. In short - everything is there to make the holiday even more perfect. The care provided by the landlord was always very friendly and accommodating from the first day of contact until departure. They always answered all questions very quickly and offered their help beyond that. Thanks to the many insider tips from the landlord, we had very nice experiences. Due to the good support, the house is highly recommended, especially for newcomers to Canada. We really liked the location of the house. All daily errands can be easily done due to the proximity to the town of Yarmouth. In addition, there are many excursion destinations (whale watching on the Digby Neck, Kejimkujik National Park, the Lighthouse Route with Peggy's Cove and Lunenburg, and various beaches on the Atlantic coast) that can be easily reached as day destinations. Unfortunately, our two weeks on site were not enough for all the attractions.

Time flew by As if on wings

We have had different experiences with vacation homes or apartments in the past. The impression from the advertisement did not always match the actual experience on site. For this log cabin, it can be said that the description and photos absolutely match. The extensive facilities leave nothing to be desired or questions unanswered. The house is very clean and organized. It is also nice to know that the friendly landlords are easily accessible if needed and have an open ear for questions or concerns. During our vacation, we were able to relax and forget about everyday life. We enjoyed jumping into the wonderfully fresh and clean lake to swim at every opportunity - incomparable to some ponds we are used to from home. Smaller trips or excursions by car and/or canoe eventually rounded off the vacation. Whale watching was definitely a highlight, where we felt we came as close as 10m to the whales. A good tip at this point is not to make this vacation too short, as time flies and you might still want to see a thing or two or just relax longer (We were there for 2 weeks). All in all, we had a wonderful vacation and look forward to a second time. Couple Dittmeyer, late 20s from Düsseldorf.

Actually deserves 6 stars.

This is how you imagine a vacation in the middle of nature in Canada. Secluded in the forest and directly on the lake, which you mostly have all to yourself, and then in a beautiful and very rare log cabin that has a very special flair. In addition, nature lovers are impressed by the special wildlife right outside the door compared to home. In addition to the many hummingbirds, we were also able to observe a bald eagle, chipmunks, and white-tailed deer. There are also porcupines and raccoons to see here and there. The landlords were extremely friendly and very serious and professional from the initial contact to the departure and always available for questions. We received a lot of tips for excursions, the information folder was filled with a lot of information. In terms of equipment and facilities, the house itself has absolutely everything you need and is tip-top clean and very well maintained, absolutely exemplary. Canoeing, kayaking, play island, swimming directly in front of the door in the warm, clean lake water at the jetty, barbecue, fishing, outdoor fireplace, indoor fireplace, fully equipped kitchen (even a cooler box for on the go was thought of), and much more, everything available. All information and pictures provided by the landlord are current and match 100% with what was found. Gas station with a "mom-and-pop store" (including alcohol) within walking distance. The nearest "larger" town (Yarmouth) can be easily reached by car in about 20km with all shopping possibilities. The only thing we regret is not staying here longer. After this stay, we went on for two more weeks to Cape Breton and were able to gather further experience in terms of accommodations. Therefore, we are convinced that this location actually deserves one more star in the overall rating. There were absolutely no wishes left open or anything that needed improvement, without exaggerating.

Pure peace and relaxation

We spent 3 weeks at this beautiful place. The house is well furnished, very clean, and we didn't miss anything. The landlords were on site. Our questions and wishes were always quickly fulfilled. The lake is a dream!!! It doesn't matter what time of day or what weather, the lake always invites you to swim. For shopping, we drove to Yarmouth. In town, we bought our worms for fishing. For our youngest who fished from the canoe or dock, this was a lasting memory. Definitely book whale-watching with Tom. We can recommend a bike tour in Kejimkujik National Park (bikes can be rented). Once again, a heartfelt thanks to the landlords for our beautiful time in Nova Scotia.

Holiday made to measure

Those who carry love for Canada within themselves have found what they are looking for with this log cabin. In this beautiful landscape, the house is nestled in the middle of the forest, providing pure vacation from the very first moment. Everyday life is far away, and relaxation sets in immediately. It quickly becomes clear that living in its naturalness and with reflection on oneself is very endearing, and one does not need hustle and pure luxury to be happy. A beautiful book and open eyes for the beauty of nature - that's all you need for an unforgettable vacation.
The log cabin is very cozy and exudes a very warm atmosphere. Everything is available and in very good condition. Whether you sit by the fireplace in the evening or enjoy your breakfast on the spacious terrace, it's simply delightful. Getting out of bed and into the lake, that's pure enjoyment for us. The lake is wonderfully clear and invites you to swim and go canoeing. To the man's delight, the fishing paradise is right at the doorstep. With a glass of wine in hand, we enjoyed the sunsets by the fire pit. The sun reflects in the lake, glowing red. Sometimes, we also experienced the lake in the morning mist - it feels like being in the realm of fairies. Even if, like us, you stay here for 4 weeks in a row, it never gets boring. The lake always looks different and mesmerizes us anew. The WHALE WATCHING was particularly impressive. The lighthouse tour and a trip to Lunenburg or Annapolis Royal are also recommended. However, the lonely beaches on the Atlantic coast were always worth a visit for us. They are easy to reach, and it's fun to frolic in the surf. We thank the landlords and are confident that we will vacation with them again in the future. Arriving at their place and starting the vacation immediately is just great. Fam K. from Neuburg

Peace and relaxation

We have now been to this very beautiful, well-equipped log cabin for the 2nd time, both in August, and we have to say - again and again! This house, located directly on a beautiful lake, is perfect for swimming, canoeing, and fishing. If you want, you can really retreat and relax in this wonderful place, but you can also explore the surrounding area, which offers a lot of interesting things to see. We especially recommend WHALE WATCHING here - unique. Requirement for this, however, is a car, which we would definitely recommend. The village offers shopping possibilities, but for major shopping, the approximately 25 km distant Yarmouth is recommended. To end the evening after the day's activities on the large terrace overlooking the lake with a cool drink was something special. We have rarely been as relaxed after a vacation and are already looking forward to the vacation in the same place next year. Family B. from HH

Traumhaus

We have been to this beautiful log cabin several times, always as a group of four, 2 couples. From the first day, it gives you the pure feeling of vacation, leaving everyday life behind and just enjoying the fantastic nature. Going swimming in the morning before breakfast, fishing directly from the jetty, paddling on the great lake, enjoying the wonderful sunset, what more could you want. The house left nothing to be desired for us, everything is on site and above all very clean. The rental is done with heart! However, nothing works without a car, you need it anyway to explore the great surroundings. We always have a lot of fun, are super relaxed, and will come back, thank you very much! Fam. W. from Wismar
