Family-friendly holiday rentals in Timberlea

Such a beautiful AirBnB. It was perfect for our family of 6 adults and 1 infant. Spacious and wonderful views. The kitchen was perfect for preparing meals. Lots of outdoor sitting areas, and we enjoyed the hot tub, outdoor fireplace and canoeing. A great location for exploring Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, and several beaches. Melissa was a wonderful host 😊. You won’t regret staying at Three Sheep’s to the Wind.

We had the pleasure to stay for the month of August. Great location overlooking a lake, just a short walk to a small quiet beach on the ocean. An old railway track converted to biking/walking path close by. Close to groceries and restaurants. Great location for day trips to Peggy’s cove/Halifax boardwalk/many parks and beaches. The home had everything you need. Just bring your swim trunks and spirit of adventure. We highly recommend a stay at this lovely spot.

Had a great stay.

We came for the Hunter Moon and fell in love with the sunsets and walking on the beach. Lots of places to explore in the area.

This was our daughters first vacation out of the province so we were unsure of how it would go as she had just turned 4. We had such a lovely stay at Sarah's cozy lakefront cottage! It was peaceful and quiet — the perfect spot to relax and recharge. The location was great, with easy access to nearby attractions and some beautiful beaches close by as well as some others 1-2 hrs drive away. The host was friendly and made us feel right at home. The beds were really comfortable, which made for a great night’s sleep after days spent exploring. Our daughter was thrilled with all the toys available, and we really enjoyed the selection of board games for some fun family evenings. We’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a calm, family-friendly getaway. We’d love to come back some day - our daughter did not want to come home.

What a beautiful location. The suite had everything we needed and we fell asleep to the sound of the surf. Need to go back and stay longer!

Marvellous start of our 5+ weeks Nova Scotia - Newfoundland tour. Lovely apartment with outstanding view located directly at the beach.

Great stay! The place is exactly as described and the pictures show. You can’t do better for location! You can walk anywhere downtown and have so many new restaurants just below the condo. There is ample space for everyone and the kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans for cooking at home. Chris was a fantastic host, he answered all my questions promptly and checked in as well. I will definitely come back and wouldn’t hesitate to use Chris to help find me a space.

I had a relaxing couple of days at Annes place, the house was as described in the advertisement and had everything you would need for a stay. Close by to local restaurants/ shops giving you different options during your stay.

Most of what I'm saying is echoing what other Guests have said - it's all still true for 2024: Morry is great to work with, cottage is clean and well-equipped,  the views here are wonderful, beds are comfy and the layout worked well for us with the two main floor bedrooms on opposite sides.  The kitchen is a good size and the two full bathrooms are like new. There's a great hike trailhead a stone's throw away and, if you haven't already, you will fall in love with Prospect, NS!!

Catherine's place was excellent and she is a great host! She was very responsive and helpful before, during and after booking. She happily accomodated our special requests. Her place is very thoughtfully designed and stocked with everything you could need (better than any other air bnb I've been to!). Lots of nice personal and local touches as well. It is located in a great area - quiet, beautiful beach, and awesome coastal hike. You will not be disappointed! Thank you, Catherine!

This place was just what we needed for our stay in Halifax. We were within walking distance of local restaurants and a cycle shop where we could rent bikes. The inside was cosy, clean, and really made you feel welcome. Andrea was responsive and a lovely host! Would definitely recommend. :)

We had an incredible trip at Candace's place. The home was stunning and was perfect for our group of 6. If you have the opportunity to book your trip to Halifax here, I would definitely recommend!

Barrie is a wonderful host and the location of this home is truly incredible. We had everything we needed, plus our own island! We hope to be back!

JP was very friendly and we enjoyed the animals.

Great little spot - sweet neighborhood, walking distance to Quinpool. Easy Parking on street or narrow driveway. Very communicative owners and easy check in.

Our family had a lovely gathering at the Porter Lake Cottage. There was lots of room for meal preparation and eating. The house had lots of very useful amenities including kitchen wares, paddle boats, a BBQ and even games and puzzles. The deck was a great place to sit outside and the living room was also quite comfortable. The washing machine and dryer were also very good. We loved the access to the waterfront. The morning sun made this a beautiful place to sit with a cup of tea in the mornings. The only thing that would have made this better would have been a kayak or two. Porters Lake is very large and would be an interesting place to paddle.

We had a great girl’s weekend at Dawn’s place! The property is beautiful, the house is spacious and beds were comfy. Dawn was very helpful and a great host. Would definitely stay again!

Paul & Patti made a special occasion that much more memorable. Our trip was made even better because of their recommendations and local knowledge and genuine care. The kinds of folks you root for in life. The views are stunning. Spend time on the deck as well. Oh, and breakfast was an incredible experience that showcased Chef Garrin’s talents and joy of hospitality.

We had a great stay at Sammi’s place! The home was clean, cozy, anduser friendly. The bed was comfortable, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches like fresh towels, coffee, and local recommendations. The location was nice and quiet—close to restaurants and grocery stores. We even had a nice surprise of seeing two deer in the front and back yard. Sammi was very responsive and made check-in and check-out super easy. The only thing to note is that there wasn’t a TV in the living room, which would’ve been nice for relaxing in the evenings. Not a dealbreaker, but worth mentioning. We used our iPad to watch TV as we don't like to watch TV in bed (our preference) so no big deal. Excellent High-speed WiFi. Close to the highway and downtown Halifax. Overall, a wonderful stay. We’d happily come back when we are in Halifax again and recommend it to others!

We really enjoyed the view from the deck and the living room . This place is a GEM . Having the beautiful view of the bay and yachts , being so close to the water made our stay that much more enjoyable . The apartment was nicely furnished and well equipped . It was perfect for a short or long stay and we would love to come back again .

A great home in an absolutely beautiful area of Halifax. The family loved the spacious accommodations and the beautiful outdoor seating areas overlooking the water and Yacht Club. Would definitely stay here again. Hosts were quick to respond with any questions we had.

I stayed one wonderful night at Lunenburg. Tim and staff is responsive. The place is super cozy and clean. The view is super, with a huge window looking right by the waterfront, and location is perfect, right by the center and close to everything. My hubby especially loved the shower with hot waterand great pressure. Super nice sleep on the comfy bed. Highly highly recommend!!! Thank you so much Tim, you made our stay at Lunenburg so enjoyable 😊

A truly magical place. Location is ideal to visit so many different towns, trails and excursions. However, starting the morning off on the deck watching the sunrise and then ending the day cooking on the BBQ. The house is fully equipped with every kitchen gadget needed. 3 good sized bedrooms with comfortable mattresses. There is a wonderful community feeling.
