This cottage is in a gorgeous location. It sits on 3 acres on a granite bluff overlooking the ocean, with greater than 180 degrees of spectacular water views. This is prime Nova Scotia ocean frontage. The views are unsurpassed. New for 2018- New bedroom suite with full bath and new Laundry Room, a dishwasher and new kitchen cabinets! You would be at a peaceful oceanfront retreat, but Halifax, a major international city is only 20 minutes away! Prospect is also about 10 miles from the major tourist destination of Peggy's Cove, which is a quaint oceanfront village, with a much visited lighthouse on a granite coast. Prospect is an oceanfront fishing village. The village is fairly quiet, but the people are very friendly and can share their way of life with you. Waterfront recreation abounds with everything from sea kayaking to sailing, water skiing, motor boating, fishing and whale watching. There is a two mile stretch of undeveloped public land ('crown land', as it is nominally owned by the queen of England) right next to the cottage that is a fabulous place to walk, run mountain bike or hike. The coast is spectacular to drive along with many picturesque villages such as Peggy's Cove, Lununberg, Mahone Bay, and Chester nearby. Restaurants are plentiful, with delicious seafood. Halifax is a major international city and has first class activities and attractions, including Celtic music, professional sports and entertainment, the Citadel fortress, a charming waterfront, and an excellent nightlife. This is a simple, but neat and comfortable cottage with all the basic amenities, and then some, on a spectacular location. I constantly update/upgrade it. It has free Wi Fi internet and cable TV. New Master Suite 2018\. New Laundry area 2018. If you are looking for 5-star resort accommodations, this is not for you! But if you want to be surrounded by gorgeous oceanfront in your private getaway, while still having a major international city nearby, you will be very happy. The cottage is best for 4 people, but there are a couple of beds in the unfinished attic, as well as a sleeper sofa. Please note Nova Scotia and Canada tax of 15%. Pet fee $100/pet. PRICES ARE IN USD. If you wish to pay in $CDN, let me know and we will figure out a conversion rate for that time.

If looking for somewhere close to town but offering great views, and that peace away from the hassle of town, would definitely recommend. While some may consider a little rustic in nature, it perfectly met our needs and met all our expectations. A great find for us for our vacation. ##### David P.

This cottage setting is line no other we've ever seen. The views of the bay, waves, rocks, village are memorizing. We stayed for four days and would gladly go back again for a longer stay. The cottage would be considered rustic by some standards but honestly it doesn't matter!!!! We loved every minute of our stay. Owner was very accommodating and quick to respond to our questions before we arrived. No need to communicate once we were there. Appreciated the privacy. ##### Sandy N. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alysia T. 2 Aug 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The views will not disappoint! We really enjoyed our stay, the cottage and surrounding area was so perfectly picturesque. We found the location convenient for day trips to Peggy’s Cove and Lunenburg, and large grocery stores were not too far away. But the best part was being able to walk down to the very charming Prospect Village, or around the oceanfront trails as the sun was setting. It’s just as beautiful as the more touristy areas, but feels like you have it all to yourself. Some negatives: the bathrooms and kitchen could have been cleaned more thoroughly. You may want to pick up some bottled water, as the tap water tasted unpleasant to me. The cottage is small, but it was quite comfortable for just me and my husband. I think it would be ideal for a couple + 1 kid, but it might feel very cramped with a larger group. That being said, the location, the charm, and THE VIEWS make up for any negative. I would 100% recommend this property and I would love to come back some day. ##### Alysia T.

Stayed 14 nights in Sep 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### georgia P. 25 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location We enjoyed our stay in prospect. The area is beautiful and the people were friendly. The hosts were very friendly and responsive to messages. The house was clean, in good condition and well appointed. On the listing it listed a hot tub which we were very excited about. There wasn’t one at the property. The listing has been corrected and the host offered a little compensation for the misunderstanding. Also, when I messaged the host about the sleeping configurations (kids are at the age where they won’t sleep in the same bed) they let me know that there were twin beds in the upper ‘attic’ available. The attic was a true attic and not useable at all. This wasn’t an issue though as there was a pullout couch so our family had lots of space and was happy. I would definitely recommend this area, property and host. The view was second to none and the walking trails close by amazing. A couple of hiccups but overall a great stay. ##### georgia P.

The house itself is cozy, updated and nicely appointed. A huge benefit for us, with a dog, was the access to gorgeous seaside trails right next to the property. These trails are open to the public and we met numerous lovely people, with and without dogs. It was difficult to leave after such a relaxing time! ##### Lyn M.

Our second time in this great house and everything was perfect. ##### Felicity M.

Watching the sunrise every morning was amazing. 25 min from Halifax and many great locations. ##### Marcie O.
