Nice spot to stay

Was a nice place
4-night trip

8/10

Whale cove was peaceful and quiet just what I wanted. The place was clean and tidy. Enjoyed my stay there.
1-night trip

10/10

Very convenient to whale watching tour and digby ferry. Providing lots of information about local tourism on paper. Each room of their inn has private powder room which is very convenient. Family friendly.
1-night trip

8/10

For the price, it is a great place to stay at. The room was clean, TV was small but good enough. We have to share the bathroom/shower with the other people in the house but we love the half bath powder room (just sink and toilet) in our own bedroom. Would stay again.
1-night trip

8/10

Its rustic feel is authentic with the cove, as warm & welcoming as the locals. Few cricks & cracks in the night but is customary with an old building, can catch a nice view just over the trees in the morning on the left side of the building.
1-night trip

8/10

Our stay was completely self-service, which worked out fine for us. There were supplies provided which allowed us to prepare a breakfast of french toast. Room privacy was fine, but walls pretty thin. A good stay, overall.

8/10

The property was clean and pretty much what you would expect. It was close to the ferry which we were going to take to the island where we were booked for whale watching the next day. Only draw back is there are no close ammenities to eat, buy grocery, etc, so take what you need in food, etc.

Good location for exploring Digby Neck and the islands. Wear shoes indoors: the floors are filthy. Everything above floor level appear clean.
2-night trip

4/10

Loved location. Watched sunset in back of property and sunrise from our bedroom window. Bed was terrible. Had to cook your own breakfast and share a shower/tub

The place was clean but the bed was very uncomfortable and sagged in the middle. Not much provided for breakfast.
2-night trip

4/10

We had a hard time to find the Inn on the property, bed wasn't comfortable and last but not least, 1/4 of toilet paper.... For 2 people... No refills, will definately not go back, even the sheets on the bed didn't feel fresh

5-night trip

6/10

Found the bed very noisy. Very small room. Had no shampoo or soap in shower. Arrived at 8 pm and left at 8:45 the next day. We saw no one. Breakfast was very limited. Toast and cereal. Cooked and cleaned ourselves. It was very quite there.

No Wi-Fi futon wasn’t good it’s very uncomfortable to sleep.
1-night trip

4/10

The property info said private bath and shower, however, the shower was shared. The included continental bfast was just cereal and toast. You make everything yourself. Again, not mentioned in the info. We skipped it as we didn't have time to make a pot of coffee. Staff was super nice and helpful though.
1-night trip

2/10

The property is not kept up well. We had “family” room. It was the basement, it smelled gross musty, damp stink. Beds were a wore out futon and a crappy double bed that was not Comfortable. We will not go back and we would not recommend this to anyone.
1-night trip

2/10

not one person there. did not know if we could use anything. needed ice. no one there to buy ice from. tv did not work. too many things to tell.
1-night trip

2/10

We checked in the room, and checked out of the room. There were cobwebs on the ceiling and behind the door. The baseboard heaters were rusty and full of dust. There were plastic wrappers under the bed and a white substance on the bedside table. The windowsills were full of black dirt (or mold). A picnic table outside was literally falling apart. The lady at the reception desk was very understanding and refunded our money.
