1 night at Glamping Dome Near Peggy’s Cove
The dome was beautiful! We had such a wonderful time. It was picturesque and peaceful. All amenities were as shown in the posting. It was clean and cosy. The sauna was a nice touch and easy to operate. Our hosts were on hand if we had any issues and their communication was brilliant. We loved our short stay and can't wait to go again!

We had a wonderful stay st the Dome in the woods. It was such a beautiful and relaxing space. We were so excited that the space was dog friendly. The hosts thought of every detail including supplies to make our pupper comfortable! The location is fantastic with Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, and Halifax all driable within 20min-1hour.

Our family of four enjoyed the solitude this cabin on a small lake offered for a much needed staycation. We enjoying resting in the hammock and the gentle rhythm the decks rocking chair provided. We brought our own, but there are several fishing rods available and ready to use. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need. Looks like there’s going to be some upcoming renovations to the cabin so we can’t wait to see what’s coming up next at Grumpy Bear Hollow!

Stayed at the Auraura Tent. About 5 minute hike up to the tent. (Keyword UP).
The experience was well thought out with care and more comforts then I was expecting. Power in the tent with a fan and a lamp. Open the skylights to view the stars at night. A small wood stove for the cooler months and a BBQ. Did you forget your lighter, flashlight or bug spray? Don't worry, they have you covered. A well stocked and very pleasant kitchen was available. (You bring the food).
Some of the off grid elements, like toilets, were a bit different but well documented. The site has lots of trail markers and solar lights to help you get around.
In the end, bring you clothes and food, almost everything else you need is on site.
It was mostly quiet, though I could hear the regular loading and unloading of the nearby ferry.
All in all, a great stay. Would go again.

Weekend Trip to Glamping Dome Near Peggy’s Cove
The camping dome exceeding our expectations by a wide margin. It contains anything you could possibly need for a relaxing and comfortable stay. Tanya was great to communicate with. I only wish we lived in the maritimes so we could return regularly.

We spent three nights in the Eager Beaver cabin. The cabin was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed . The shower in the cabin was not hooked up yet, but the near by outdoor shower was a very unique experience which we enjoyed. We were surrounded by beautiful scenery and the sounds of nature. We Paddleboarded on the lake and my husband went for a refreshing swim, i was not as adventurous as him. My favorite thing about this place is the unobstructed view of the sky from the peak which was an amazing place to view the stars and look at the sky at night.
We had a relaxing stay and plan to return in the fall.

Weekend Trip to The Dancing Moose Vacation rentals
We had the nicest time staying at The Zzz Moose/ Dancing Moose cabins! The cabin was very clean, there was plenty of space for our family and our kiddo loved the loft. The private bathrooms were a nice touch, and we easily made dinner there both nights with the kitchen supplies and private refrigerator. (All of which were very well maintained and clean)
The location was great for us to enjoy the Cabot Trail, and also it’s right on the ocean, so we enjoyed walking down to the water for sunset. The host was incredibly communicative and happily answered questions throughout our time there. And to top it all off, he’s an incredible chef, and we enjoyed a delicious breakfast by him.

Weekend Trip to Glamping Dome Near Peggy’s Cove
We loved Tanya and John's hospitality! The place is absolutely magnificent 👌 it was a pleasure to enjoy nature at its best, and the dome,,,, well,, you have to visit to see for yourself 🙈💖
It was a wonderful opportunity to stay in the woods, while living in an upscale hotel room. They have thought of everything and the amenities were well planned and thoughtful.
We will choose this place again and again.💚💚

Beautiful spot. Really pretty mossy forest to admire at the front of the dome and a large green grassy area at the entrance perfect for kids and pets. And the dome itself had everything we could need and more. It was impeccably clean as well. Great bed and electric fireplace to stay warm too. Will definitely be back!

Amazing experience. Exceeded my expectations. The host added so many little details that made it extra cosy and comfortable. Love the solar lights thru the woods. The labels and instructions were appreciated. Highly, highly recommend. I think this may become a yearly retreat for me
