Here's what folks 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!

We had a magical stay at the Salt Winds bunkie. The bunkie is brand new, beautifully decorated, absolutely spotless and every little detail is thought through. Location is stunning - nestled into this little cove with gorgeous views. Tanya and Phil were such warm and welcoming hosts. Tanya was extremely thoughtful providing us with lots of local recommendations and a welcome gift including few toys for our kids and lending us books for kids to read as well. Tanya and Phil went above and beyond to make our stay special. We'd love to return sometime!

Saltwinds Bunkie was a little piece of Heaven. The bunkie was very clean, thoughtfully decorated and well appointed. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. Tanya and Phil were helpful with day trip and restaurant ideas and Saltwinds location was the perfect home base. We were left a bottle of champagne and a sweet made-by- hand card for our anniversary. Such a lovely touch. Would recommend to anyone. You wouldn’t be disappointed!

Wonderfully designed accommodation in a stunning location. The bunkie was spotless and superbly outfitted. Tanya and Phil were great hosts and a joy to meet. I will book again!
