Tourist Guide

The Shubenacadie River is a river in Nova Scotia, Canada. It has a meander length of approximately 72 km from its source at Shubenacadie Grand Lake to its mouth at the historic seaport village of Maitland on Cobequid Bay, site of the building of the William D. Lawrence, the largest wooden ship ever built in Canada. The lower 30 km of the river (from the point where the Stewiacke River meets to the mouth) is tidal and the river experiences a tidal bore twice daily, with some bores reaching up to 3 m in height at certain points along the river.

A dog adventure business tucked away in  a hamlet only 40mins from Halifax. You can go out in a go-cart with a driver when there's no snow or drive a team on a sled when there is! Fantastic owners and wonderful dogs.

Very steep and dark path with a few flat pads far apart down side of place to get to entry. Very high entry step with a wobble block to work as step.Once in place was clean and nice to stay and sleep.Only had decaffeinated coffee which was disappointing. No whitener/cream.
