A gem of a spot!
This is not your modern, shiny and hi tech apartment. It's more of a "walking into your grandparents warm embrace" kind of place. This apartment is quirky and cozy and is set up with everything you might need for a stay of any length, we wish we could have stayed longer. The furnishings are cozy and warm and the bed very comfortable. The views are absolutely breathtaking, one can just sit in the comfortable chairs and stare out at it all day....literally! There's a private beach a few steps away and beautiful Melmerby less than a 10 minute drive away. Art is a welcoming host and genuinely is happy to ensure you have everything you need to enjoy your stay. Very private and quiet. We'll definitely be going back.

Our 2nd Lovely Stay
We can't get enough of the view of the harbour. Its the perfect spot tucked in between 2 beaches within walking distance. This is a 2nd floor apartment so there are stairs but its worth it for the view. The kitchen had everything needed for preparing easy meals. Art is an attentive host checking with us that we had everything needed for our stay We will be back.

First Time in Nova Scotia
Drove up here after a flight into Halifax. Entry was perfect. When we met Art the next day, he was as congenial and responsive as a host can be. He asked if anything was needed, and we mentioned the coffee pot was in bad shape and we needed another coffee mug. Later that day, a new coffee maker and mugs were at the doorstep! J&C

Spacious with a spectacular view
We enjoyed our 8 day stay immensely. We wanted space, a place to cook and to be near water. We got all three. We enjoyed our morning coffee taking in the wonderful view of the water. The kitchen had everything needed to prepare food and cleanup. There was coffee provided too. The apartment is large, the king bed was comfortable, and the shower was oversized. It was a short walk (5 & 10 minutes) to the sandy beaches on either side of the property. It is over the owner's residence but quiet. We never heard any noise from below. Art and family were welcoming and friendly, checking with us when we were coming in and out to make sure we had what we needed. Note, there are stairs. We look forward to returning next year.

Hurricane Fiona made this property unavailable
After dodging down trees, debris on the road and sagging electric lines We arrived at our property to be greeted by an older woman struggling to prepare our rooms in the absence of electricity. The owner was out searching for gas for the generator that would give us some power. So We opted to forgo staying here, but told Them not worry about a refund to us as they had a lot of cleanup to do on the property and needed the money more than we did. What we did see though looked to be a lovely setting for a VRBO: spacious with a grand view of the bay. I SHOULD have called ahead as suggested by VRBO and we would have avoided our disappointment!

It’s all about the view!!
We enjoyed our stay in Chance Harbour! Art is a good host, readily available for questions. I liked that he gave us a tour upon our arrival and showed us how to work the TV etc. The private beach is lovely, we were lucky to have an unseasonably warm day in September to spend on the beach! We would go back if ever up that way! Thanks Art!

Stunning ocean views & welcoming host
This has been our favorite VRBO so far. ( out of about 20 rentals) Something about the sights and sounds of the surf, watching sea gulls and eagles fly around you. Beaches within walking distance, many provincial parks close by, we felt totally spoiled. The host Art was attentive and gave the best tour of the property making sure we had everything we needed.

A peaceful stay in Chance Harbour
The apartment was clean and comfortable, perhaps furnishings could use some updating? But the view was spectacular and the property was very quiet and peaceful, which was exactly what we were looking for. Art went out of his way to be helpful, even providing a teapot as soon as we mentioned it.

Beautiful oceanside retreat
Fantastic location with full panoramic view overlooking the Northumberland Strait. Excellent private beach just steps away, another nice (public) beach a short walk away. Beautiful and quiet. When we stayed there were deer nearby and a bald eagle visiting right on the edge of the property. Art was a great host - not intrusive but always cheerful and available.
