Our quiet oceanfront Cooperage Cottage sits sheltered by tall oak, pine and spruce trees on five private acres of forest and salt marsh. The surrounding area is mostly summer cottages with some year-round residents. It is conveniently located 45 minutes from Halifax and it is close to Chester, Mahone Bay and Lunenburg.
An oceanfront two story, south facing, fully equipped chalet-style house perfect for couples or families. Each level has a living area, bedroom and bathroom.
The upper level bedroom has a queen bed. The lower level bedroom has two extra long twin beds which can be placed together to make a king bed.
The galley kitchen is fully equipped including an induction stovetop, quartz countertop, wall oven, microwave oven and dishwasher.

At the shoreline of the property you can see the ruins of an old working cooperage. A century ago, wooden barrels were built here for the fishing industry and Chester Basin was well known for its many cooperages. Here, chairs welcome you to enjoy the lovely island views and in the summer you will discover why this area is a popular boating destination. The water is accessible so maybe you prefer to go for a swim or rent a kayak.
One of the islands you can see from here is the legendary Oak Island which is famous for many theories of possible buried treasure. Treasure hunters have been searching for the past 150 years.

Summary: We spent a week at the Cooperage Cottage and enjoyed it immensely! This delightful cabin is located on the waterfront and has beautiful views of Borgels Cove and Mahone Bay. We found the location to be perfect for visiting the area attractions. During our trip, we visited Lunenburg (30 minutes from the cabin), Peggy’s Cove (1 hour), Mahone Bay (20 minutes), Truro at the top of the Bay of Fundy (2 hours), Bachman’s Beach (40 minutes), Lightfoot and Wolfville Vineyards (1 hour), and Hall’s Harbour (30 minutes from Lightfoot and Wolfville Vineyards). At the shoreline of the property, there are two Adirondack chairs that sit in a small stand of trees. We found this spot to be especially peaceful and relaxing. We sat there a few times in the late afternoon reading books and searching for sea glass. It is a surprisingly good spot for collecting sea glass! The bed in the upstairs bedroom was quite small and felt more like a full-sized bed rather than a queen. We got used to it, though, and were able to make it work for us. This is not really drawback to the cabin—just a “you-may-want-to-consider”. Also, the kitchen is a little small as other reviews have pointed out, but it is very well equipped. We cooked several meals during our stay and had no issues with the tight space. We really enjoyed having the barbeque grill located on the back deck. We would definitely book this place again, and we highly recommend it for your stay. We had an amazing week!

Summary: We had a lovely time at this cottage. The managers are welcoming and friendly without pressure in any way. The cottage was super clean and had everything we needed. And my husband and I loved the board walk and poking around on the rocky beach!

Summary: Cooperage Cottage is an excellent property in a great location and we had another lovely stay. Explore the shore or just stay and relax... I highly recommend it. But I can't recommend ever booking any property with VRBO again. Hurricane Fiona caused an unexpected multi-day power outage at the cottage during our stay, and we had to move to a hotel. While the hosts graciously refunded their rental cost for those days, VRBO refused to refund the fees and taxes they collected, and as a result I lost several hundreds dollars.

Summary: Almost everything about our stay exceeded our expectations. The location of the cottage is utopia for those who long to connect, or re-connect, with Mother Nature. The cottage interior was left spotless for us by the Spechts and/or their cleaning staff; the furnishings are comfortable and nothing feels cheap, including the towels and bed linens. Yes, the kitchen space (not the appliances) is a challenge--if you wish to prepare elaborate meals, this may not be the place for you. My only disappointment was one the hosts have no control over: the noise of the traffic on the highway, though it is not close by, is ever-present. It was so out of keeping with the sense of privacy and sanctuary--but then, that's the world we live in. And you'll still hear the owls and the loons at night!

Summary: Lovely, well appointed cottage. The two floors (each with own bathroom!) allows the kids their own space. Note, that the kitchen is very well equipped, but in quite a small space - good for one chef at a time!

Summary: I cannot say enough good things about this wonderful property. The house is beautiful and equipped with all your needs. Modern kitchen, large dining and lounge areas with comfortable furniture, nice bedrooms with comfy beds, and sizeable closets. Balconies have Adirondack chairs with comfortable cushions and a great view of the water. BBQ grill worked great. It is conveniently located for trips to surrounding attractions, including Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, as well as Chester. Wonderful host .who keeps the place spotless and comfortable. Would gladly stay here again.

Summary: A very comfortable base from which to explore the shore and see the sights. The view over the bay is stellar and the wildlife in the saltmarsh was a constant source of entertainment. Two thumbs up.
