Top Carter Lake Hotel Reviews

Sandman Signature Dartmouth Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel! Everything was nice and clean and up-to-date. Lots of shopping and restaurants within walking distance."

Nalu Retreat & Nordic Spa

10/10 Excellent

"With full transparency, I had no idea what I was getting into with respect to the Nalu Retreat property near Halifax. I'm not a Yoga person, or really a "laid back" person. I like action and adventure - but I was needing a place to lay my head in the Halifax area on September 23rd, 2026 for the one night, flying in from Winnipeg. Checking out the Expedia site for accommodation, I saw the "Domes" and thought that was kinda cool & unique. So, I took a bit of a gamble and booked. I definitely hit the jackpot with this property! I got in late (11:45pm), but the directions & instructions provided by Sandy were excellent. While there was some path light assisting in finding my "dome", it was the clear sky and the very bright stars that paved my way. What a glorious surprise when I finally got into the room. I was expecting rustic, what I got was beyond 5-stars! Gorgeous amenities, perfect bed, programmable fireplace, bathroom, etc - all well beyond clean and inviting. I LOVED the absence of tv & radio (although the wifi does work perfectly), so it provided a very calm and inviting refuge. My 30+ daughter and one year old granddaughter picked me up the following morning to take me to Halifax. My "boujee" daughter could not believe the accommodation, vista and all round "vibe" of Nalu. My wife and I are making plans to come back in the fall of 2027 for a longer stay and a chance to truly enjoy all this retreat has to offer. On a scale of 1 to 10, this is a definite 11!"

The Redwood Studio - Lawrencetown Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to relax"

Lakeside Guest House - Porters Lake

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, comfortable and clean property with beautiful water views. Kitchen had a great selection of items for cooking during our stay. Beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable. Towels were provided for showers and swimming off the wharf. Property was very quiet. Fire pit with comfy chairs was a great way to spend our evenings. Thanks to the hosts and especially Barney for having us. Would definitely stay again."

Cozy & Spacious Family Friendly Basement Unit with Private Room and Bathroom

The Willow, West Porters Lake

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at the Lawrencetown Lodge and already can’t wait to be back! The hosts were lovely and so kind, always there to help, and we especially appreciated the spa and fire spot. What a nice place this is! Thank you again for shaaring this part of the world with us."
