Guest Testimonials

As first guest of the year at the Castaway Ocean Lodge, we were very happy to find a warm, fully stocked and clean beautiful getaway home. We relaxed and enjoyed beautiful sunsets, sunrises and a full moon positioned perfectly over the harbour. We expolored Lockeport and loved the tiny windows in the roofs; a gorgeous white sand beach. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay and feel at home.

We have stayed at this Sea Star Cottage on several occasions. It is a lovely and tranquil spot to get recharged and enjoy a vacation. It is very private and yet close to a beautiful beach! You will think you are in a paradise when you see the beach! The cottage is cozy and wonderfully decorated. We would highly recommend it to all ages!

Summer in September

Locals know it, and so should you!

Ask a local what the best month of the summer is and most will say September. Unlike other parts of Canada, where the first nip of fall is in the air, summer temperatures linger on in Nova Scotia. As the Gulf Stream moves closer, it brings warmer water temperatures, blue skies and sunny days. So, it you are not constrained by school schedules, consider coming in September where you will enjoy not only a beautiful time of year, but also lighter traffic, and reduced accommodation costs.
