Perfectly peaceful spot
This house in Apple Orchard Lane is spacious and well equipped. We saw the sun rise over the water each morning which was just magical and we enjoyed seeing lots of birds and deer in the garden. Lunenburg is a fantastic town to visit, so picturesque and accessible. Everyone we met was pleasant and polite and so very helpful. Great holiday all round. .

Tidy and conveniently located for all areas we visited near by. Beautiful property. The house was older and taken care of. There must have been lots of rain previous to our stay as the home felt very damp. No AC upstairs however fans were provided. We saw deer and the locals were very friendly. View was fantastic and it was close to a beach that we could walk to and enjoy with the kids.

Great private spot on the south shore
We had a great time on apple orchard lane. The location can't be beat, just minutes outside of town but on a very private road, and only a oen minute walk to a public beach. The cottage has some quirks but was great for us - it's rare to find a place that is both pet friendly and has a heat pump, so getting both was a real treat. Three good size bedrooms (and a 4th you can use in a pinch) and two bathrooms makes it great for a family, and the deck gets afternoon shade so it's great for family dinner. I should tank this review so none of you take it and we can get our reservation next year, but that doesn't seem fair to the owners.

Could have been a lot cleaner
To say I was disappointed would wrap it up. We have stayed in many rentals. My expectations were, an old, worn farm house that was clean with cooling throughout. Not the case in this house. The Lockbox is about 16 to 20 inches off the ground, on a post under a platform. It was awkward and difficult to open. There are no hand railings on the steps to the back door or the deck. Steps were weirdly constructed; the treads were narrow and the risers high. Half of the back deck had no railings and more odd stairs. We opened the house door and a warm, musty smell was obnoxious. We aired it out for hours. Later we started the heat pump which cools only the lower floor. A musty smell lingered for days. The bedrooms were hot. Beds are low and not all of them were comfortable. The linens & towels were clean. There was litter and dirt in some corners & closets. There were A LOT of earwigs in the lower kitchen cabinets, drawers and floor, toaster or dead in bowls and cups. The fridge and counter tops were clean. Many of the dishes glasses, pots, bowls and silverware had food stuck to them. We washed all items before we used them. I didn't expect spider webs with healthy looking spiders earning a good living eating other insects. Instructions on recycling were a little confusing with both typed and handwritten information. We did the best we could based on what we do in our part of the country. Would I stay here again? No.

Perfect location
It was a great few days at the cottage. So close to the ocean. A ridiculously short drive into Lunenburg. Made it out to Keji to kayak on the lake. It was quite hot during some of our stay, but a few minutes with the AC and fans going, and windows open at night, it was just fine for the 4 of us. Thanks!

Quiet and unique
This house is a unique property and it feels like stepping back in time. The kitchen has been beautifully renovated, yet most of the rest of the house feels much older and constructed not from any standard design. That means steep stairs, dark wood and a second bathroom on the main floor that looks as if we're once a porch. Quite comfortable stay. Host has done a great job of renovation and I hope will continue
