Amazing vacation getaway!

The property was incredible from the second we pulled in. The check-in process was great. We loved how absolutely bright, spacious and clean the entire place was. The kitchen was well supplied and the bed was very comfortable. The hosts really went above and beyond with the little added touches. From the coffee bar to the herbs and spices, really great. The outside was gorgeous! The view from the deck or inside looking out at the lake was just so peaceful and relaxing. We could not recommend this place more. Loved it!

Amazing lakeside home

We stayed at this beautiful lakeside property in order to be in a quiet location close to Halifax. We really enjoyed our stay. The house had everything that we needed and the lake access was great. If possible, we plan on staying in this property again next year.

Best Place Ever!!!!

We are two couples who stayed at the Den of Zen for a full week. We have stayed in close to 60 short term rentals and this is by far the best! The space itself is immaculately clean and beautifully appointed with a mid century meets farmhouse vibe. Shelley has not missed one single item. We had everything we needed and more. The setting and the outdoor amenities are like being in paradise! We took advantage of sitting out on the dock, kayaking, sitting around the fire pit at night chatting, taking a sauna, and relaxing at the end of a long hiking day in the super clean Jacuzzi!! This was our base before starting out on fantastic day trips. Suggestions of must-do activities include Peggy‘s Cove, Polly’s Cove, High Head hiking trail, AKA, Dr. Bill Freedman‘s Nature Trail, Lunenburg, and Crystal Crescent Beach. Additionally, we went into Halifax most nights for a fabulous dinner at some of the great restaurants. We also had a spa afternoon at a spa in downtown Halifax and a day to explore/shop in nearby neighborhoods of Hydrostone and Dartmouth. Shelley could not have been a better host. Very responsive and very positive. What an experience!!! Just see for yourself. Too much to describe in words.

Relaxing cabin near the city

We had a wonderful few days on the lake. 2 of us went back into the city each day to work, the other 2 worked from the cabin. In the evenings we relaxed in the hot tub, playing board games in the cabin, or relaxing on the dock. It is a wonderful cabin and we hope to be able to go back again. I highly recommend trying this place out.
