The house was well taken care of, renovated, and modernized. As advertised, Orchard Point is very private and secluded. Standing on the shore of the ocean, you get to fall asleep to the sound of waves. It is also conveniently located only 15min from downtown Shelburne, where you can explore the local museums, breweries, and great dining places! If you’re a bit more adventurous, 45min in either direction you will find some of the best beaches in the province (Hawk Point & Carter’s Beach) and other hidden gems! Cell reception was hit and miss on the entire peninsula, but WiFi at the house was very good, we were able to stream Netflix without any lag! The host is very responsive and helpful! Overall, a great experience!

I have a lingering memory of our week at Sanderling Beach House. It is of waking up in the master bedroom and gazing out the full length windows to the sun filtering through the fog and lining the beach grasses with silver. That's just one of many that I will treasure. The house was well designed, with clear views outside, room to be together and apart, a well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. We appreciated the colourful deck chairs (just looking at the range of shades was a treat onto itself) and the sand toys. Helen was very helpful and took a personal interest. The only drawback was the horrendous state of the 1.8 klm. road going in. It was so rough and rocky we felt it hindered our ability to go out and about exploring. Other than that, it was just perfect. 

Had a wonderfull week at the cottage. Highlights for the kids were the seals at the Keji Seaside Park. For us it was the dinner at the Quarter Deck Restaurant.

The cottage is very cozy and generally well outfitted (with young children we appreciated the washer and dryer) Loved the blueberries and the local activities: day trips, Carter's Beach, Kejimikujik, Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, Walking out on the rocks at the waterfront, Summerville Beach, dinner at White Point; all of this made for a great week. We would encourage Sandy Lane to preserve/enhance the view of the ocean as it is such a gem to have at your doorstep. Thanks!
