Here's what people are saying...

 

 

"What a fantastic home! We felt as if we belonged as soon as we drove up the driveway. Tanya gave us a personal greeting and was available for any questions immediately. Our home was immaculate and well designed. We had plenty of privacy, but Tanya was thoughtful, and baked us scones. Unbelievable treatment by a host! We were able to use kayaks on site and were just outside of Lunenburg so local shopping sightseeing and dining was a very short drive away. We hope to return and truly enjoyed our experience at the Bunkie again!"

"This place is just absolutely amazing. We loved everything about it; the rugged rock and raw landscape is breathtaking with a view on the water. The hosts were extremely welcoming and loved the homemade scones they brought us at our arrival. We will return to this peaceful haven."

"Tanya was amazing and the place is great. It's a really cute Bunkie with everything you need. Perfect for a couple. They are right next door if there are any issues but they aren't intrusive. Super welcoming, gave good advices for where to go and eat and genuinely wanted us to have the best experience and vacations. I loved the place, would go again anytime!"

"I stayed at Tanya and Phil’s place with my husband and had the best experience imaginable. It is located just 15 minutes drive from Old Town Lunenburg, so you can have the best of two worlds: the charming town filled with amazing restaurants and unique shops, and the astonishing landscape of the seaside Salt Winds Bunkie.


And what a bunkie! The building is small yet impressively designed. As an architect I must share the good taste, quality and beautiful details Tanya and Phil implemented in the space, contemporary with some maritime accents and Tanya’s paper artwork!


The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare food, so we usually had breakfasts and charcuterie boards with wine, and what better backdrop than sunrises and sunsets reflecting in the calm waters of Schooner Cove.


And last but not least, Tanya welcomed us with some delicious homemade bread, and as it was my husband’s birthday weekend, she also made him a pretty birthday card. Lovely detail."
