Arm's length from the sea, private cove beach. Easy to access town and city.

Unique cove beach surrounding, beautiful, tranquil, and private, this water front house is in the famous beach town Chester(Lunenburg County), NS. It is located in the Chester Golf Course Membership area, only 5 minutes from Chester center, Chester Playhouse or Yacht Club, 10 minutes from Queensland Beach, 10 minutes to Mahone bay, Lunenburg, and 40 minutes from downtown Halifax. Great location for day trips nearby saltwater beaches, Peggy's Cove, Annapolis Valley, Hubbards Farmer's Market, etc.
There is a secluded and lovely small white sandy beach, just one property away from our house.
How to get there: You turn right (east) from our driveway entrance and walk past my neighbor's house number 133. Beside their driveway, you may see a metal fence toward to the south to the ocean. You may just follow the fence and walk along the bush jangle path, it is not far and you will be there.

Cove side cottage
A well equipped cottage and beautifully appointed on a protected cove. Beautiful deck, comfortable beds, great kitchen and nice to have to have access to washer/dryer. This was just what we were looking for - relaxation with ocean views.

By lake...
The driveway was VERY steep and lose gravel....hard to turn around....finally decided to back down driveway...very scary.... This was NOT a separate house, but half of a house that was turned into a rental on half.... Washer and dryer was shared by owner and their clothes in a basket by W/D. The location was peaceful sitting and listening to the water of the lake.

Sheer heaven
We stayed four days in Yi & Kuangs beautiful cottage on Squid Bay. The cottage is spacious with two large bedrooms with comfortable hotel class beds and small but well appointed bathroon with shower and a washer and dryer which we appreciated. Also a well appointed kitchen and a cozy living-room and dining room with beautiful views. There is a lovely wrap around verandah and covered front porch to relax on as well as a large dock with an large umbrella and lounge chairs to enjoy. The cottage is centrally located and within an hour from Halifax Stanfield Airport. Yi responded to any inquiries promptly and was a very pleasant host. We highly recommend staying in Yi&Kuangs beautiful VRBO.

Beautiful view,
The property is in a nice location with beautiful views of the bay. There is a nice deck down near the water with 2 lounge chairs to relax on. There are no rails on the deck and a short drop below. I would not recommend this property for people with kids.The beds are comfortable,although we could have used some extra blankets. The shower unit is quiet small and a tall or large person could not fit. The bidet was a nice feature and the host supplied plenty of toiletries. The living room and dining room have great views. The living furniture was a bit of a disappointment. There was small hard sette and 2 hard chairs. The recliner was comfortable, but for only one of us. A suggestion would be to have a couple of cozy couches. Also, there were plenty of clean towels, but no washcloths. Overall, a great stay and just a few suggestions.
