Guest Testimonials

Can't remember a vacation where we were less ready or willing to pack up and go home!  This is a fabulous cottage and a truly beautiful setting.  We have been so comfortable and happy here.  Although we have lived a total of more than 60 years in Nova Scotia, we had never truly appreciated the beauty and variety of this part of the South Shore before.  Thank you so much for sharing your lovely summer home.

What a gorgeous spot!  We loved the house and the property - saw deer, bunnies and porcupines.  Unfortunately the weather didn't co-operate - Hurricane Bill for our arrival and tropical storm Dan for our departure.  Nothing could hide the beauty of this spot.

We have fallen in love with Nova Scotia.  It was a wonderul week.  We  were able to enjoy many of the amaxing beaches and sights around this area.  We even saw porpoises right outside Peace and Plenty cottage!

Description

One of the nicest beach in the Liverpool area, Carter's beach is actually three beaches in one – all the beaches have slightly different orientations, so it is always possible to find a sunny spot out of the wind.  The first beach you come to is a gentle crescent beach that is fairly shallow.  It is boarded by sand dunes along the back.  The next beach is a little rougher – it has a river that runs through it that is tidal.  It is much easier to cross at low tide when it is about ankle deep that at high tide when it is waist deep.  It is not a problem, but is definitely something to watch.  When we went to the beach with our children (1 and 4) we played a lot in this river at low tide as the water was warmer and there were no waves.  We love this beach.

John and I went to Carter's beach on Canada Day in 2001. We were amazed. It looked like we had traveled thousands of miles to the Caribbean - the sand was white and the water turquoise. The illusion was broken when we dipped our toes into the ocean and realized that yes we were still in Canada! The water was not freezing, but it definitely was not tropical!
