When not exploring Chester and the myriad of South Shore options available, you can relax in a private back yard with screened in room, barbeque and gardens. There is plenty of room for children and parents to play in the front yard. There is a wonderful fire pit for those memorable starry summer evenings. You may help yourself to fresh veggies and herbs from our amazing raised bed gardens and our chickens (if mature enough to lay) will be happy to lay a few organic eggs for your breakfast. Your vacation experience will expose you to a unique luxury tiny house living experience at its best! Your hosts Sandy and Bill (retired) live in our home in the front part of the Serenity property and will provide as many vacation suggestions and directions needed to keep you as busy as you desire during your stay.

Awesome tiny home!!!!
This property was absolutely fantastic for my wife and I and our two year old dog. The home watery well equipped and the decor and interior was spot on. The grounds were amazing and very well kept and private. In terms of location we were a two minute drive to the waterfront in Chester. Bill and Sandy were awesome hosts and we will make it a point to be back again.

Wonderful, unique place!
What an amazing experience we had here! Great location - while not on the water, it was close to many desirable spots (Peggy's Cove, Mahone Bay, Lunenburg) and on a nice quiet, peaceful road. The tiny house was impeccably designed and decorated and had absolutely everything we could have needed. Our kids greatly enjoyed the accomodations - the two lofts were the perfect spot for them to relax at the end of a busy day of being tourists! Great communication with the owners.

Lovely property, beautiful area
Spent a few days here while we (family of 4 including two teenaged boys) visited the south shore. Easy access to Halifax, Lunenburg, Mahone’s Bay, Peggy’s Cove, etc. Lots of room for our dog to run around and the owners’ dogs were sweet bonus. Everything is built to fit, perfectly curated and all details thought out. No corners cut in this property and we wanted for nothing. Thank you for having us.

The Best!
We loved everything about our stay in the Tiny House (not so tiny!) Very cool place with every inch of this property carefully and thoughtfully built, along with the modern, beautiful decor. Well equiped kitchen with nothing overlooked. The grounds, the gardens, the little fur friends we met made our stay most memorable! And the hosts, well you will not get better hospitality anywhere! Many, many thanks to Bill and Sandy. We appreciated evrything you offered to us during our stay; it was one of the best we've ever experienced! Till next time ...

Serenity. Heaven on earth.
The name of this house is perfect. It provided complete serenity for myself, my daughter and my grandson. The surrounding area was absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! I cannot think Sandra and Bill enough for all they have done. Sandra even allowed us to go into the garden to pick fresh herbs and vegetables for our salad. Of course all we need it was lettuce and green onion but oh my God was it ever good LOL. Bill was very kind to help us start our fire at night and to start our barbecue as well. We all love this tiny home so much that we can't wait to go back again! And it really wasn't that tiny . We wanted to live there forever lol . I happen to think the location was perfect! You are within minutes to any Beach you want to go to. We hope we are fortunate enough to see you again next summer! Take care.

We stayed at Serenity Cottage for a week. The tiny house is not so tiny and has everything you could possibly need for your stay. Sandy Bill are the ultimate hosts. The location is fantastic for day trips to Halifax, Annapolis Valley, Bay of Fundy and the many small villages along the Southern Shores of Nova Scotia. This vacation does deserve its exceptional rating. Thank you Sandy and Bill!

In a word: lovely
My wife and I loved our stay; the ‘tiny house’ was wonderful; lots of room, cozy, welcoming, and tastefully decorated. It has a small wood stove that creates a very peaceful romantic space where you can be quiet with your thoughts and enjoy the peaceful sound of a crackling fire with your loved one . At same time, the accommodation has everything needed, and Bill and Sandra were helpful and welcoming at all times. Property is beautifully manicured and is in one of the most beautiful locations in Nova Scotia; the only complaint, is we wish we had stayed longer. Thankyou for a memorable stay, will be back!

Serenity Cottage is a little corner of Heaven
Sandra and Bill are fantastic hosts, who have built and outfitted this tiny home with such thoughtfulness and intention, that it was very difficult to bid it goodbye. The Southern Shore of Nova Scotia is one of the most beautiful- and friendliest - places I have ever been. Im counting down the days until I can visit next. Or retire here.

Awesome time
We had an awesome time here, despite sharing it with Hurricane Lee. Our hosts, Sandy & Bill, made sure we were safe and that we had power throughout the storm. The house itself was pristine and met all of our needs and more. The hosts were fabulous people and we shared a fun bonfire evening with them plus many enjoyable conversations.
