Recent Reviews in Chester Basin

Travelodge by Wyndham Bridgewater

8/10 Good

"Good location and good, basic facilities."

The Homeport Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Nicely renovated motel, clean and comfortable. Great place to stay. Conveniently close to a Tim Hortons', and a supermarket. Only thing I wish is that there had been a bedside table, even a small one, on both sides of the bed."

The Dockside Inn & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, overlooking the water."

Smugglers Cove Inn

8/10 Good

"Wonderful location and had everything you need"

Rum Runner Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was quite helpful in suggesting places to eat, visit, and with parking options."

Oak Island Resort & Conference Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very good"

Black Forest Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"The setting of the cabins among the trees was so unique and lovely. A quick walk down to main street shopping and restaurants. Super comfortable and cozy stay."

Surfside Inn

8/10 Good

"We stayed in the honeymoon suite and the king bed was amazingly comfortable. The staff were great and helped me with heavy bags up the steep stairs (be ready for that if you’re old or weak). The adjacent beach across the road was quite with hardly anyone on it (romantic). The down side of the room was 3 things: 1) there were only sheers on the windows so privacy at night was a little off and the room was too bright in the morning. 2) the shower stall was ridiculously small - about 24” x 30” so the curtain stuck to my side and the shower head was an old ‘water saver’ head and hardly sprayed much water. 3) the bathroom fan was noisy and requires replacing. The chandelier above the jacuzzi tub made us laugh as we banged our heads on it standing up. Oh and #4 if the owners are reading… replace the window screens! The ocean view is no good blurred by ancient window screens. A nice stay but not worth the money -especially for newlyweds and because I need a nice shower!!"

Floating Cottage on The LaHave River close to beaches, golf, on Lighthouse Route

10/10 Excellent

"The reviews didn't lie. The cottage is exactly as described. Beautiful peaceful location. Great communication with the host. Everything was neat and clean. I would not hesitate to book again. It was a perfect place for our anniversary trip."
