Our hosts were right next door and gave us the space and support we needed to get through a difficult few days. Their kindness will always be remembered. The property itself was pristine and a perfect sanctuary for us. Comfortable and welcoming.

Great deck to enjoy the beautiful river view. We enjoyed watching Eagles, Osprey snd Cormorants while we were there. Rental is private with only one neighbor (the rental owner) but less than 10 minutes from Annapolis Royal and a short drive to Digby. The owner was prompt in responding to any questions we had. The rental was clean and comfortable. ##### Rose G.

Very clean, comfortable beds, good communication with host. The kitchen needs a vent under the range hood. With the exception of a smoke alarm going off in the middle of the night, we enjoyed our stay. ##### Sara G.

The pictures do not do the listing justice, it is situated right on the river with an incredible view. The hosts were welcoming, kind, and went out of their way to make our stay work well for us. They have been extremely thoughtful about how this verbo has been set up for guests and we found everything we could possibly wish for our stay provided. A legitimately cookable equipped kitchen is a rarity. We did the majority of our shopping at local farmers markets, The Red Onion and seafood vendors and were able to find everything we needed. This Verbo is immaculately clean and lovingly maintained. Our jaws dropped when we walked in, it was a very pleasant surprise. We are already planning our return visit, highly recommended and the surrounding area is beautiful. ##### Marija V.

Easy to find and only 10 minutes from all that Annapolis Royal has to offer. Besides the abundance of history and a glorious garden, highly recommend the Whiskey Teller, Mad Hatter Wine Bar, Still Fired Distillery and Kings Theatre. House had all the amenities we needed for a 3 day stay that included site seeing and hiking, where we could due to wildfires. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f467174b-2c74-4e6b-9720-20aba694a3ad-1757531709648.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f759bd30-dfcc-406d-a808-4f271deda243-1757531709032.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4e29a36c-80ad-43dd-b333-4ed1b832ee8c-1757531706886.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1c4df714-2fcd-49fe-94c9-fd984af2fabe-1757531711062.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Karen C.
