Tout était merveilleux. TRÈS FIRST CLASS.

our layover on the return to montreal from nova scotia was perfect. karen's advice for the best route back through the north was priceless.

Karen was very helpful and easy to communicate with. The house was comfortable and breakfast was good. Karen was helpful at giving us some advise about the area.

We enjoyed our night's stay very much. The walking path along the river in front of Karen's house provided a nice 3 mile/5k walk to work off her excellent hot breakfast and good strong coffee. Karen made great gluten free banana bread for me and we really got into an interesting chat about her international family and interest in Waldorf schooling. She has great dogs and rabbits you can visit but they are kept well away from guest areas if you are allergic. If you are a light sleeper, you might ask for a room on the side or back of house as there can be mild traffic noise at the front. ( A vehicle stopped with it s radio blaring in middle of the night .. but it was only the radio that woke me up, not regular traffic.) If you need dinner, you must consider eating at the Nook and Cranny 15 minutes down the road ( an Ottawa native chef doing fine dining in a very casual fun atmosphere at amazing prices - Can $ at par ). The book store on the main street of Calais is well worth a visit as is Karen's Diner (no relation) almost next door, for lunch. ... Thank you Karen for a very comfortable enjoyable stay.

Wonderful visit, beautiful home and grounds keeping. Karen was a delightfully interactive host and very willing to please.

Keren has a beautiful B&B (Maine Riverfront B&B) just in Main St. The place was impeccable, clean and very well kept. Breakfast was great! There was even home made jam! Karen has an extensive selection of teas ... huge selection! We really enjoyed that! ;) Room was very comfortable and the shared bathroom was spacious and super neat! Overall great stay! Thanks, Karen!!

Karen was very friendly and welcoming. I loved her huge selection of teas and her breakfast was delightful--delicious and filling! Her location is perfectly situated--very close to the border crossing into Canada. We were able to get a good night's sleep before heading up to Cape Breton. And it was fun to meet her other guests as well. We would definitely stay there again if we ever head north again. Thank you!

If you need a place to stay in Calais, this was great. It was super close to the border, so we chose to stay there on the day we went exploring in Canada. Karen is very kind. Her breakfast was AMAZING! I would recommend staying here.

Un endroit agréable et relaxant! Il a tout à fait tout ce dont vous avez besoin. J'y reviendrais.

Laurel's cabin is a quasi-rustc, cozy getaway in a beautiful rural setting. Unfortunately our stay wasn't long enough to fully enjoy it. Laurel's communication was excellent and she was very accommodating. We would not hesitate to stay at her place again.

Mes amis et moi avons passé un bon moment chez Laurel. La vue était incroyable et nous avons trouvé beaucoup à faire entre se prélasser sur le pont, faire de la randonnée sur la rivière et se rendre à Saint Andrews, ce qui est un lecteur assez court. Nous aimerions revenir quelque temps.

Très cadre privé et à proximité des plages et Saint Andrews. Dormir en bas, il était agréable de se endormir au son de la rivière. Alors que près de la route, il se sent privé et le bruit de la route disparaît une fois que vous arrivez à la maison. Serait très bonne valeur pour une famille ou un groupe, et il existe de nombreuses options de sommeil à l'intérieur et à l'extérieur de la maison. La maison elle-même est assez petite, si bien qu'il dort 6, il sera confortable .... mais peut-être est le point de vacances. Il ne se sent comme emprunter une maison d'amis, car il est pas tout à fait la configuration pour les locataires encore. L'eau était bien à boire, mais avait le goût musqué étant donné les sols de la région, donc nous avons opté pour l'eau en bouteille.

My wife and I loved our trip to this cottage! We will be back again next summer! Thanks again

Laurel's place was a lively cottage and everything exactly as it was described in the listing. We will definitely be trying to make our few days there an annual event. Laurel was very helpful with everything! Thanks again!

5 of us traveled to NB for a wedding and chose to try our luck with this rustic little "cabin in the woods". The pictures do not do it justice. The surrounding forest is beautiful while the cabin itself is the perfect little getaway from busy every day life. It is clear that the cabin holds a special place in the hearts of it's owners as it was clean, tidy, and stocked with all the necessary gear for cabin life. We were pleasantly surprised to find a new fly screen installed over the deck, a BBQ, and a fire pit on site. We were in NB for just under a week and the location of the cabin was great. It's located only 15 minutes from St. Andrews/St. Stephen and just minutes from the highway. We took advantage of the location and visited numerous sights in the area. Communication with Laurel was great and she answered any questions we had. Our group is from Newfoundland so we are all familar with the typical cabin challenges. You are in the middle of the woods so flies are ever present. Bring fly spray, live inside the fly tent on the deck, or prepare to donate a lot of blood. On the last few days of the trip, the water pressure in the cabin was very low, making it difficult to shower/wash dishes/etc. Despite these small issues, we had a fantastic time. If I am ever in need of a place to stay in NB I won't hesitate to book here again.

This location is as peaceful as peaceful can be. Cozy and secluded but close enough to St. Andrews for quick visits through the day and evening for dinner. The Cabin has everything you need for all meals and dining in. Our host was amazing and was very much reachable and accommodating.

What a beautiful place! I could stare at the lake forever. There were loons making their haunting calls in the early morning, distant bullfrogs and fireflies flashing all night. There were many cute red squirrels and lots of birds at the feeders. I watched sunfish and a pickerel darting around the lily pads. Our room was super comfy and the shower was about the best of our two week trip. Bob and Cate were great too. They told us all about their place and the environs. Hopefully, if we return Cate will have made more cookies. I embarrassed myself by begging for more before we left. We took a whale watching zodiac tour out of St. Andrews, but apparently late June is too early to see them. The tour was excellent anyway. Thanks, Bob and Cate. We loved your place.

Bob and Cate were wonderful hosts. The home is situated on a beautiful private lake. The views are amazing and there is plenty of wildlife to enjoy. The bedroom and private bath were clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay again.

Wonderful time here, if only for a night. The view of the lake is actually more stunning than the photographs show. The room was large and had a nice view of the lake as well. Cate was so welcoming and even played board games with my seven year old while we were getting settled. Iris the dog is a complete joy. We were able to watch for animals on the lake via the telescope and got to see a snapping turtle up close in the yard. Cate provided a nice continental breakfast in the morning. Would not hesitate to stay here again!

It would be hard to find better stop on our long journey to PEI. Perfect location, peaceful and Iris is now a very good friend of our dog. Cate was so kind, waited for our late arrival and so patient with our toddler who spent his entire day in a car. This stay was such a gem, you would want to keep it more confidential.

The view is spectacular! Room was clean and we had plenty of room to move around in. Bed was comfortable. We even had a lovely view from our bed without having to get up. Cate was a great host and very informative of all the surrounding nature.

The hosts were very welcoming. The room was clean and comfortable. The scones and coffee in the morning were the best!! The view was unbeatable. We arrived late so we didn't get to enjoy it for long.

Cate and Bob have a lovely and restful home. The lake is so much fun to watch wildlife on. We saw beaver, Eagles, osprey, great blue herons, and assorted smaller birds. They have a spotting scope that allows you to view them up close. We viewed the space station passing overhead one night. A good dark sky to enjoy the stars from. A delicious breakfast with great coffee was a morning treat. We rested comfortably in the bed and the bathroom was well equiped. I would highly recommend this home for a peaceful stay. The home is close to the highway and all vacation spots are close by. Come back and rest up for the next adventure.

Super quiet and on a lake waterfront! Cate was a very welcoming host and a great listener. We slept very well in this silent little paradise :)

Fred and Burt are the quintenssential hosts!! If you want to be spoiled and stay in a beautiful home, then this place is for you! Best breakfast anywhere! And , lovely touch of lemon water at your bedside at night. It was a great experience!

Our night was a delight. Very comfortable bed, quiet, & restful sleep. The breakfast was like none other we have experienced. Fresh muffins, eight types of fruit, homemade jams, eggs, sausage, and other delights graced the table. All fresh, ripe, or cooked to perfection. The home is filled with art that was wonderful to view. We highly recommend this home.

It's like staying in a museum, the art and artifacts are amazing. The adorable little "monsters" and our hosts were very accommodating and friendly. Great location in a quiet residential neighborhood, and a quick walk to town for some wonderful beer and food at 5 Kings (not to be missed).

These guys do it right! They have two quiet and friendly dogs, who greet you but aren't pushy. The breakfast was wonderful-- lots of fresh fruit, a hot entree, juice choices, and yogurt...more than I could eat, for sure, and very well flavored. the bed was very comfortable and the room I had was completed with an in-room bath that included a shower as well as a soaking tub. Thanks for a good experience.

Cute and cozy apartment. It was perfect for my friend and I on our East coast adventure

The place is small, but cozy! A quick 10 -15 minute walk to the water. No A/C, and the bed being in the loft was warm, but after cracking a few windows and turning on the fan, it cooled down to a cozy temperature. The bed and pillows are firm, slept like a rock! Thanks for a great stay!

Agnès et son mari, Andy, sont deux gars supers super sympa et merveilleux. Ils nous ont accueillis chaleureusement, il s'est senti comme à la maison dès le début jusqu'à la fin de notre séjour. Ils équilibrent entre respecter notre vie privée et prendre soin de nous était tout simplement parfait. Ils ont même préparé un délicieux petit-déjeuner (café, yaourt, céréales) pour nous dans le loft. Vraiment gentil! Le loft était très charmant et exactement comme décrit. En fait, nous étions tristes que nous avions réservé juste pour une nuit. Dans l'ensemble: je peux absolument recommander un séjour à leur loft !!!!!

Agnes was welcoming and kind, offering written information on PEI (our next stop). The value of the their apartment was great, and there were a few items in the fridge for us to enjoy, not to mention granola and fresh flowers on the table...nice touch! We enjoyed our short stay, and if you are up for an adventure in sleeping locations, I recommend Agnes'!

Agnes's AirBnB is in a lovely quiet neighbourhood, but still close to local eating/shopping establishments. It's a cozy spot for one or two. There is a nice sitting area, a kitchen with a table and chairs and a bathroom with shower. The bed is in a sleeping loft so guests should be comfortable with climbing ladder-like steps. Agnes had stocked the fridge with items for breakfast, which was a welcome treat. A nice spot for a quick stop in before or after crossing the border, or a sweet spot to chill for a few days.

The most obvious obstacle is the ladder like stairs to the bed platform. Agnes has pointed this out and it was not a problem for us but could be for many. It is literally a ladder. We did not attempt to take any of our stuff up there. The bed is mattress on the floor that could be of better quality. Were this my place I would have been sure the microwave, fridge door, kitchen floor, doors and shower tracks were spotless. Sorry to say they were not. However the hosts were very nice and friendly. It pains me to make any negative comments about the place but I would appreciate knowing such details of a place I was going to stay. It certainly was not a bad choice but I hope the hosts take my comments to heart and break out the cleaners.

We had a lovely stay at Agnes' quaint little apartment! Check-in was well organized and we were greeted by a friendly neighbour to ensure that we had everything we needed. Agnes left tons of information on things to do in the area, and always made herself accessible to us should we have any inquiries. She also makes a delicious rhubarb cake! Thanks for the stay :)

L'endroit d'Agnès était merveilleux. Nous avons réservé une dernière minute et elle était très sympathique et accommodante. Les lits étaient confortables et propres, le loft était assez cool et un thé / café était fourni. Je recommande vivement stayinv ici!

Karen was very gracious to accept our request to arrive late. Her home is very welcoming, whimsically decorated and clean. She provided a balanced breakfast (fresh fruit was a highlight!)and she was very friendly.

Karen was lovely, very welcoming with her partner! They helped us with information for the ferry from St. John to Digby. The breakfast was AMAZING!! Eggs, bacon, toasts, coffee, fruits, wow, they overdid themselves. We slept very well, there was air conditioning and the bed was very comfortable!

Our stay met or exceeded all of our expectations. The room and bath were spotless. The bed was comfortable. The back yard on the river was delightful. And, to our surprise, a full breakfast was served. Our dog was welcome. Karen was a cheerful and informative hostess. We would definitely go out of our way to return.

Sehr gut gelegen, besonders für die Durchreise. Freundlich, super unkomplizierte Kommunikation, vielseitiges Frühstück. Absolut empfehlenswert!

Beautiful 150 year old house with an attentive host who serves a delicious, fresh breakfast. Arrived late one night as the sign outside was confusing to the name of the property we had booked. Karen very welcoming. Never used Air b n b previously and neither of us had stayed in a b&b for many years. Although we knew Karen was downstairs whilst we were in bed everything was comfortable. Karen brought us a lovely coffee and tea to our room which was much appreciated. Lots of hot water and fluffy towels! Thanx Karen fir a lovely stay!

Karen's Calais Crossing B&B is perfect. Very nice vintage house, comfortable, clean, roomy, nice shower, excellent homemade breakfasts. Our chocolate labrador was made welcome. Huge yard on the river, connected to 3 mile river walk trail. Karen is like an instant friend, good conversations. Also, as we traveled from Vermont so I could film a documentary around Washington County, Karen was extremely accommodating to my wife and dog while I was away during the long day. Our second morning after breakfast Karen graciously made her office available as a video studio where I filmed two interviews. Highly recommended.

Karen made us feel like old friends in her delightful Victorian home. We slept exceedingly well on the comfortable bed and my husband declared the breakfast the best we'd ever had in all our B&B stays, and I would have to agree, especially with such an enchanting breakfast nook. All this and being near the river, too. A lovely place to stay.

Karen was very warm, accomodating and welcoming and helped to make our stay very pleasant indeed. She went out of her way to make sure we had every thing we needed. For anyone who is a light sleeper I recommend you take ear plugs because Karen's house is close to the road and the traffic noise started early in the morning.

Danielle was very sweet and welcoming, and very understanding about us checking in late after delays. The room is spacious and comfortable, and having our area as a little closed off section with our own washroom was nice. Overall, an excellent experience!

Excellent value, location and host. It was a very convenient stop at the end of our Canada trip. Not far to drive to Portland airport. Also great brew pub in town, 5Kings. With a view of the river and boarder.

Danielle did a marvellous job being a fantastic hostess and conversationalist! It was a very enjoyable evening to talk and visit with her, and her little dog, Sherman, is quite charming and adorable! The night's sleep was very restful and comfortable with very clean and fresh sheets on a supportive mattress. The room was nicely decorated and furnished in a pleasing manner. The bathroom was very well cleaned and equipped and located right across the hall from the bedroom. Danielle was even kind enough to offer us a beautiful breakfast the next morning. It was an absolute delight to spend the night there, and we will surely visit Danielle again!

Danielle is a lovely lady with a nice cozy home. The townhouse is right near the border crossing and very easy to find. The room and bathroom is private and clean. Very comfortable bed and pillows (always a plus for side sleepers). We had coffee and chatted in the morning. I would recommend Seastar to anyone who is visiting St Stephens, New Brunswick.

Danielle is a friendly, kind and warm person. She makes you feel at home. Also, Sherman is the sweetest little dog you could meet. Diane and Pete

I really enjoyed my stay at Danielle's charming Cottage. She was very welcoming, very helpful and made me feel at home. I had a good night rest and shared a nice breakfast with her and her sisters who happened to be visiting. They nicely showed me around the river rapids nearby. Above all I enjoyed very much the chatting around the breakfast table. I had a wonderful time and would strongly recommend this place.

Had a great visit and loved giving Sherman's belly a rub!

Danielle met us at the door after our long day's drive from Portland ME and showed us upstairs to our clean and quaint room. She allowed us full use of the bathroom next door while we were in residence. The bed was comfy, although bedding a little less so. We left early the next day w/o seeing her, but were wished farewell by her cute little long-haired dachshund.

This place is a great place to stay and you definitely get your bang for your buck here! The home is nice and cozy and we were welcomed with greeting smiles! The private entrance through there beautiful backyard with outdoor seating was only made better by having a large and very clean en suite! For a single person or a couple looking for a stop for the night this place is perfect! Steve was kind enough to have great conversation first thing in the morning after he had finished an overnight shift at work and welcomed us to a light breakfast! Again thank you Steve we highly recommend your home!

L'endroit de Steve était exactement ce dont nous avions besoin après une longue journée de voyage. Le lit était très confortable, les chambres étaient impeccables et agréables à l'œil. Les jardins étaient charmants et nous avons apprécié une visite sur le porche filtré. Steve et Toni étaient des hôtes gentils et serviables.

Steve's "Mother in Law" suite is quite comfortable. The location is very good for seeing St. Stevens and visiting across the border to Calais. Breakfast was very good as was my conversations with Steve and his lovely wife. Thanks Steve!

Fabulous stay! Steve & Toni and wonderful. They made me feel right at home -welcoming me in when I arrived and a pleasure to get to know. Great location, outstanding continental breakfast, comfy bed and very clean. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in the area if I'm lucky enough to find it available!

Steve's place was great. It was a separate area of the house with private entry and a bathroom. Steve and his wife were great. They invited me for some wine cheese and crackers while we all share stories on a variate of topics. It was Steve's birthday, so a poor commitment took him and his wife to dinner but not before his recommendation for a place to eat and directions to it. In the morning I was offered coffee, muffins and cerise for breakfast. The place was charming, clean and quite which suited me perfectly. I would highly recommend to anyone to stay with Steve.

Nous avons été très bien reçu par Steve et sa femme! Belle chambre propre avec salle de bain privée avec entrée privé! Je recommande vivement pour ceux qui veulent un coin tranquille où se reposer. Karine et Gabriel

We had a lovely stay at Steve's home! He and his wife were so welcoming and friendly (especially to our border collie). The room and garden were beautiful. What a wonderful place to stay in St. Stephen!!

Steve et Toni sont d'excellents hôtes! Très reposant. Ils ont répondu à toutes les questions que nous avons et nous ont aidé à découvrir leur petite ville. Nous avons eu une conversation amicale avant notre départ le lendemain matin.

这是一个非常不错的住宿地点。我们真的很喜欢有整个宽敞的楼上套房自己。这是非常干净,安静,舒适,安全。冰箱甚至放养有水果和在柜台上对待。我们发现,在需要的时候瑞秋非常方便和帮助。谢谢!

主机到来之前取消您预订的日子。这是一个自动发帖。

Nice place and great host. We never met, but everything was as it should be and communication was prompt. Thanks Rachael!

The apartment is spacious and very private, well maintained and clean. It is located within a couple of blocks of the US-Canadian border, quite convenient for sightseeing on either side. We appreciated that the kitchenette was supplied with some essentials such as coffee, tea, fruits, milk, OJ, and bagels. There's a convenience store at the end of the block and a large grocery store a short drive away. Our communication with Rachael prior to our arrival was friendly and informative and Jeremy was helpful on our arrival. We would definitely choose to stay here again if the opportunity arose.

Rachel was very accommodating and went the extra distance to make me comfortable during my stay. This was one of my few experiences where the property was really easy to locate and the check in process was completely free of issues. Thanks for a nice visit.

This was a great place for two people looking to relax and unwind. We had all the comforts of home with a wonderful view. Great walking on the rocky coast at low tide. Captain Louis was a fabulous host and made us feel right at home. We will be back.

Great place for a quiet get-away or a stop on the way to/from Canada. The cabin is only three years old so everything is pristine. Comfortable, supportive bed, Weber gas grill, all the kitchen supplies you need. WiFi is great, cable TV with all the channels you need. Be careful with cell phone as it will pick up the Canadian tower across the river so you could be stuck with international roaming charges. The views are amazing as cabin sits right on the river's edge. At high tide you almost feel like you are in the river. The tides are about 28 feet around here so you can literally just sit back and watch the tide go in and out. This is a rather remote area so there are really no "fine dining" restaurants in the area. Cook at home is really your best option. Eastport is about 20 min down the road and is worth a visit but don't go on a Monday or Tuesday as many shops and restaurants are closed. Eastport is probably best option if you want to eat out though, but don't expect haute cuisine. I was lucky enough to go out with Louis and Billy lobster trapping. Interesting if you have never done it. So if you are looking for a quiet getaway don't hesitate. Louis is a great host and even brought me an avocado stuffed with fresh`crab one evening, which he gets in abundance in the lobster traps.

This cabin is everything you see in the pictures and so much more. Everything you could need and want, very clean and the most amazing views! Captain Louis is a great host and a big part of what makes this such a great place to stay!

If you like the rocky shore, the sound of the ocean, lobster, crab and an outstanding host then this is the place for you. Relax, read a book and listen to the Loons. A beautiful place to stay.

You will not be disappointed, just perfect and a view to die for and host who is amazing. Booking the cabin is a no brainer.....(URL HIDDEN) of the best finds on Air B and B so far.

This is the best place in all the land. I almost do not have words for the amazingness that is the Captains Cabin as well as its host, Captain Louis. The view is spectacular. I became truly relaxed faster here than any other place I've ever vacationed. The cabin is clean, the bed is comfortable. Staying here was like coming home. Captain Louis and his son Chris were so kind to us and taught us so much about the history of the area and lobsters. Do yourself a favor and stay here. Without question this is the best of the best.

Un réglage somptueux, encore mieux que décrit. Mobilier artistique et confortable. Le petit déjeuner était fabuleux et élégamment servi. Les hôtes étaient les plus gracieux et accueillants, et utiles pour fournir des connaissances locales. Mérite d'une critique élogieuse

Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment. Les hôtes étaient très sympathiques et accueillants et intéressants à discuter. Nous avons eu une bonne recommandation pour un diner charmant à manger et un petit-déjeuner absolument incroyable, le plus enchanteur, le plus fait maison, magnifiquement présenté, et délicieusement enrichi par les herbes, bon petit déjeuner que j'ai jamais eu. Merci beaucoup, nous espérons que nous serons de retour l'année prochaine.

Bienvenue avec un verre de vin et une bonne conversation.

I can't say enough about Fred and Burt's hospitality. Even though we arrived later than we would have liked, upon arrival, Fred and Burt made us feel extremely welcome. The wine and the conversation that evening were delightful. We couldn’t believe the spread they had for breakfast in the morning; fresh baked blueberry muffins, eggs, seasoned bacon, fresh fruit, homemade jams... the list goes on! Everything was absolutely delicious, but I think my favorite touch was the mint on the cantaloupe. We took their advice and went to the local chocolate factory, Ganong, whose truffles really do inspire the fluttering sounds of angel wings.

Il s'agit d'un nouveau B & B dans une maison joliment décorée et restaurée (les photos ne font pas justice), tout est impeccable et impeccable. Les hôtes Fred et Bert sont charmants, très attentifs et nous ont complètement choyés! Nous étions en famille de quatre personnes et nous sommes restés dans trois chambres, tous très confortables. Le bain à remous entièrement équipé comprend une baignoire ainsi qu'une douche multi-jet + sèche-cheveux, robes, etc. Le réveil du soir a été délicieux, avec de la glace à la menthe et au citron laissée pour nous, une excellente touche! Mais le topper était le petit-déjeuner Bert préparé - fabuleux - avec une variété de fruits frais et de baies, des oeufs brouillés, des saucisses, des tomates tranchées, des muffins et d'autres pains, des yaourts ... tous délicieux et fraîchement préparés. Fred et Bert sont charmants, et leurs deux Français sont adorables. Nous vous recommandons absolument un séjour ici, et nous avons hâte de revenir nous-mêmes.

Our charming hosts Bert and Fred and their two French Bulldogs welcomed us with a glass of wine and gave us a lovely tour of their magnificent antique and art filled home when we arrived around 430 pm. We so enjoyed chatting with Bert and Fred-fascinating folks-plus they gave us ideas of local places of interest and recommendations for dinner. Upon our return from st. Andrew, we found our hosts had turned down our bed, provided us with carafes of ice water with cucumber, and granola bars in case we had midnight munchies! Enjoyed the private bath with high design tub and techno shower. Pampered better than a five star hotel. And then there was THE breakfast feast! As an admitted foodie, the fluffy scrambled eggs with fresh herbs and narcissus blooms accents from the garden, bacon, fresh from the oven blueberry muffins, English muffins with three jams, fresh strawberries and blueberries and cucumber/parsley/baby tomatoes from their garden, etc. were all a culinary delight!! all served on China, linens, under a gleaming crystal chandelier in the formal dining room. Treated us like royalty and treasured guests throughout, even escorting us out to the car via a tour of the elegant gardens, fountains and ponds surrounding their home. Our first experience booking with AirBnB and so impressed with Bert and Fred's hospitality, great representatives for this service! Can't wait to come back. And to share with our friends this special experience.

What an astonishingly fabulous visit we had at Fred's house! The entire house is a marvel of antiques and curios from Fred and Bert's travels, all displayed with wit and charm. The house is spotlessly clean, and for our comfort there were ice water and treats next to the very comfortable beds, stylish robes in the closet, and fluffy towels and toiletry products in the bathroom. We were quite late in arriving, and our hosts were entirely gracious about it. We of course exhorted them not to trouble about breakfast, as we had to catch an early ferry. When we awoke to the smells of baking muffins and sizzling bacon, however, we weren't too surprised-- this gesture was in keeping with their thorough and exacting hospitality. The breakfast that followed was fabulous, served in their toile-decorated dining room under an antique chandelier. Their cute French Bulldogs kept us amused. Fred and Bert are cultured, witty, and terribly nice. We wish we could have spent more Time with them! A top-flight experience all round. Highly recommended.

Nous nous sommes sentis très à l'aise et nous avons apprécié nos hôtes tout en nous émerveillant sur divers aspects de la société d'aujourd'hui et sur la façon dont ils ont fini à St. Stephens par un verre de vin ou deux. Nous reviendrons certainement avec eux.

Mari-Oaks is a perfect getaway for families. It's comfortable, spacious, kid-friendly, and the views from the main living area and yard are spectacular. There's a great set-up for campfires, and lots of outdoor seating areas for soaking up sunsets, watching seabirds, and keeping an eye on the kids while they hunt for beach treasures. Loads of interior space and a fully-equipped kitchen. Margo is an excellent and responsive host. Thank you so much for sharing your marvelous place with us!

Mari-Oaks is a comfortable, charming cottage, the perfect home for my family for a few days. It is oldish and rustic and obviously well built and that's exactly why it feels like home. The floors are wood and don't squeek. The 4 bedrooms are virtually soundproof (we had a baby in our group). And then there is the living area with a view of the water. And Margo has been great, responding patiently to all my queries, silly and serious, within minutes.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay! The location is stunning and the house large, comfortable, and well equipped. The host was relaxed and very helpful in every respect. Great place for a family vacation.

Margo was very helpful and informative before our arrival. We arrived and were welcomed by a picturesque cottage. Our family had a great getaway weekend and can't wait to go back once again.

Le Mari-chênes a largement dépassé nos attentes. Il était très confortable avec beaucoup d'espace pour 9 adultes et l'emplacement sur l'eau est très pittoresque. Bien que, nous étions tristes circonstances dans visitions (pompes funèbres), trouver ce cottage merveilleux où la famille pouvait rester tous ensemble était une bénédiction. Personne n'a eu aucune plainte et je reviendrais ou recommander sans hésitation.

Margo was amazing !! Kept in touch daily! Loved loved loved the house !! Gorgeous !! Will def be back !

Incredible location. The cottage is located on a beautiful bay where u can enjoy a little swim, kayaking or just relax on the lawn and try to spot a seal. Great communication with the host.

What a great place! The cottage is cozy and the setting is spectacular. The kids were playing, looking for little crabs during low tide and kayaking during high tide. Super relaxing and very spacious. We would recommend to anyone.

This is a wonderful place to have vacation. The house is very beautiful and right on the lake. Canadian border is very close with a lot of interesting places to explore. The nature around is breath taking. We definitely would like to come back .

I felt welcome just from the care and thought our hosts put into the small details. Leaving the travel brochures, cook ware & utensils needed, the cleanliness and right down to the citronella candles. Not too mention the fresh lilies in the bathroom, nice touch. Our hosts were very respectful of our privacy, so much I would have liked to meet them to at least say thank you face to face. They made themselves available for any questions through emails, and responded very quickly. Also enjoyed the wildlife in the area, nice to see a good size buck across the road over morning coffee. A nice mix of the forest and the sea. All in all a nice relaxing and clean little cottage to call home for a few days.

Krista and Jordy are fantastic hosts. They are friendly and respond promptly. The cottage is situated in nice proximity to the Bay of Fundy (4 minute walk) and St. Andrew's-by-the-Sea (8 minute drive). Serenity by the Sea is nicely outfitted with new kitchenwares, towels, and bedding and is impeccably clean. I can't recommend this place enough! If you're to be immersed in nature, with accessibility to local attractions and stores, Serenity by the Sea is the place for you!

Krista and Jordy were excellent at communcating and answering questions from the very beginning to end. We arrived to a clean and spatious cottage that fit our family of 6 well. The pull out futon in livingroom would be small for an adult but great for my 9 year old amd the other kids shared a queen size bed. The cottage has everything you need for a stay and if not, they will get it for you. Firewood was provided for the outdoir fire pit which we enjoyed a few nights. The wifi works great (which made the kids happy!) St Andrews is just a short drive, 10 minutes to a grocery store and amenities. Overall a great experience!

My boyfriend and I had a lovely time at the cottage. Close to a lovely secluded beach and downtown, as well as clean and quiet. We especially enjoyed using the fire pit. Krista and Jordy were just a message away and I really appreciated the quick, helpful responses.

Krista and Jordy were great hosts; when we arrived they even had fresh flowers in the kitchen and bathroom which was a great touch and put us at ease right off the go. The house and property were great. We brought a lot of things with us but came to find out everything you need is right there - kitchen is fully equipped, fresh towels, etc. The key for us being first time AirBnB(er's) was the communication. Krista and Jordy were fantastic, making sure we had everything we needed, even dropping off wood at the beach so we could have a few after dinner fires on the beach! PS...no need of bringing wood here, you'll find all you need and more on the beautiful private beach. We went into town a few days for lunch and had planned to go for a nice dinner but changed our plans because we liked being there so much! It truly is Serenity by the Sea! Also, there were just two of us but two couples would easily fit in the space, there's lots of room.

We really enjoed our time at Serenity by the Sea. The cottage trailor was very clean and quiet.

Kristy et Jordy étaient fantastiques avec la communication de ma première enquête et même après nous sommes partis! Nous avons été très s'il vous plaît avec les draps et les serviettes que les déplacements de l'Ontario a laissé peu de place pour apporter des éléments supplémentaires lit propre. Le chalet était très propre et privé. La promenade de la plage est à quelques minutes et mes enfants apprécié à la recherche de coquillages et des crabes là-bas! Nous avons également apprécié de voir autant de cerfs dans la région. Le chalet était une courte distance en voiture de la ville de St Andrews et nous avons adoré, tant de jolies boutiques et restaurants / pubs.

Le chalet était mignon et confortable. Il était propre et le lit était agréable. La plage était génial !! Seulement quelques minutes et belles. Nous avons apporté des chaises de plage et assis là-bas pour le coucher du soleil. Jordy arrêté pour déposer des fournitures que nous pourrions avoir besoin, ce qui était très courtois. Ma seule critique est qu'il semblait un peu trop cher. Si vous voulez la vie privée et l'accès à une plage, je recommanderais ce gîte.
