Red Head Retreat has been the best house our family has rented yet. It is a quaint cape cod that was perfect for our family of four. We loved the most the open layout on the main floor with only the center staircase being any obstruction. The back wall is filled with windows giving a 180 degree view east and north of the ocean - incredible morning sunshine to sit, read and enjoy a cup of coffee (amazing sunrises!). The had a large deck with two rocking chairs and a grill - a table would be beneficial but we ate our breakfasts in the morning sun on the floor of the deck. We would have spent more time in the yard if it weren't for the ticks which happened to be bad this summer (we needed to get a flea and tick collar for our dog beyond her monthly treatments which did the trick). Even though there are a few house next door to Red Head, we didn't see a sole the entire week. We enjoyed the adventurous walks hopping along the boulders on the shore (no beach but a great one less than 10 minutes away, Roseway). Again, we had the vast shoreline to ourselves to explore. Red Head was truly a treat away from the hustle and bustle of our busy DC lives. We had such a lovely time in Nova Scotia. It was everything we hoped it would be. Our children enjoyed the challenge of our own rocky beach. We even found a few intact sea urchins before the seagull smashed them. Other highlights of our visit were the "Trot in Time ride" through Lunenberg, Carter's Beach and Halifax. Thank you Helen and John so much for your part in our great vacation.
What a fabulous week we've had!!! Wonderful water - such a lovely spacious cozy home. Castaway Ocean Lodge has a view to die for. We loved Shelburne and Lockeport too; very quaint with lovely old house and so quiet and unspoiled.
As soon as we arrived at the cottage we felt right at home. This place is beautiful. We have had a great week here and up until the last day the weather has been brilliant, especially for October. The cottage is perfect; absolutely everything you could need for a comfortable stay. We have visited some great places but unfortunately most attractions close at the end of September. We will just have to come earlier next time!
