Island House Above Trees! 360° Oceanview, 4BR, Car-Accessible, Near Lunenburg

Experience Nova Scotia island-living at its finest at SkyView on LaHave Island, a 25-year old home perched on the highest point of LaHave Island, above the treetops. Now with high-speed Internet! Please view our house tour video, which is posted with our pictures. Or search "SkyView on LaHave Island" on the web.

A Unique Experience

Our house is built high like a castle on a hill -- you drive your car up to the second floor door with a bridge to the house. As you enter, you encounter a 2-story atrium with large-window views of the ocean (there are 28 windows and skylights in the atrium alone!)

Nearly every window in the house reveals a spectacular vista. Guests have a 360-degree view of the mostly uninhabited, wooded LaHave Islands, and of a picturesque cove, sprawling bay, and vast Atlantic Ocean. Enjoy amazing views from three new decks with glass-panels.

The LaHave Islands: An Exceptional Destination

From the minute you approach Crescent Beach, a popular 1.2-mile long beach which leads from the mainland out to the LaHave Islands, you know you’ve come to a special place. After driving down the wide beach (or taking the road behind it), you follow a winding road and cross two bridges. You encounter postcard views along every turn -- colorful houses, old fishing wharves, and fishing and pleasure boats passing by. At the end of the road, you’ll find SkyView on LaHave Island.

Conveniently Situated

Accessible by car without the need of a ferry, we’re a 3-minute walk from the water. We’re a 7minute drive from the mainland and the Lighthouse Route, which runs the mainland between Halifax and Yarmouth. It’s 30-minutes to Bridgewater, which is the area’s main shopping area, and 40 minutes from the historic seaport of Lunenburg and seaside town of Mahone Bay. We’re an hour-and a half southwest of Halifax and the airport (YHZ).

Our property offers beauty and privacy, yet is located in a vibrant island community, on the most populated of the two dozen islands which make up the LaHave Islands. We’re also in an area of the South Shore which has much to offer tourists.

Outside

Enjoy the views from 3 decks -- a wraparound deck accessible off the great room, a smaller deck off the den, and a balcony off both the master bedroom and study. Relax listening to the seagulls, watching fishing boats in the bay, sunrises in the morning, sunsets at night, a full moon and stars across the sky, and view deer and small fox which roam the property.

Inside

Come home from a day at the beach to warm yourself in front of an airtight soapstone wood-burning stove in the great room. Our home can comfortably sleep 6 adults in 3 bedrooms (all with skylights), and in a den with a pullout couch-bed. Our guest limit is six people. If you desire to have additional people visit you at any point, you must contact us and see if this is possible. We provide bedding and bath towels, and a washer/dryer. Guests provide their own beach towels. The house also has baseboard electric heating with thermostats in each room.

The master bedroom is huge with a king bed, 6 skylights, and a 50-inch flat screen TV with local channels. It has an extra space with a lounge chair, desk, and can also fit a baby crib. The master has direct access to the bathroom.

The kitchen is large and equipped with a new refrigerator, stove and dishwasher. It has a microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, food processor, quality kitchenware and a small breakfast table. The dining room has a large mahogany table with antique chairs.

The first floor den is a second seating area which supplements the atrium. It has a pullout couch which sleeps two people. The den has a 36-inch smart HDTV with many apps such as Netflix, Apple TV, Prime Video, Hulu, YouTube TV, Disney, Peacock. The TV has an HDMI cable that can be hooked up to a computer. It also has a DVD player and stereo. The den is adjacent to the first floor bathroom and there is a deck off of the den.

You can enjoy playing ping-pong on a full-size table in the basement.

We have high-speed wireless Internet (25 mbps download & 5 mbps upload) and the cell service is good.

We do not allow smoking of any kind inside our home.

What to Do

Locally, there are many attractions. Half a dozen beaches are within a 10-minute drive, including Risser's Beach Provincial Park, with a fine-sand beach with lifeguards, winding boardwalk along a back marsh, visitor’s center, a snack bar and shower facility.

On our island are many quaint paths and roads to walk or bike, a marine museum, community hall, government wharf, boat launch, a church, and a cemetery.

On nearby Crescent Beach, people love to park their cars on the beach, walk their dogs, surf, kite-board, stroll the beach at sunrise and sunset, and of course, swim!

Several fishermen and their families still live on the islands. Some will take visitors out fishing or on island tours (ask us). Locals also love to share their community's history through casual encounters along the road and at events like the weekly morning coffee hour, serving the best home-made scones and sticky buns you’ve ever tasted – really. The community hall also hosts guest lectures and other events.

Along the Lighthouse Route on the mainland are lots of craft and antique shops, artist studios, restaurants, museums, and historical sites (such as the Fort Point Museum in LaHave, where the French first landed in Canada in 1604). You can take in musical events, county fairs, farmers’ markets, art shows, ox pulls, movies, theater and more.

For sporting activities, you can rent kayaks and paddle boards, golf at several courses, go horseback riding, rock climb, wind surf, para-sail, and enjoy the resort at White Point Beach, where you can get a day pass to use the pools, yard games, and boats.

Don't miss the most famous bakery in Nova Scotia, the LaHave Bakery (15 minutes away), where you can sit down in its quaint dining area and enjoy an amazing breakfast or lunch.

Another guest favorite is 'The Ovens,' which is a series of ocean caves accessible by wooded walkways, where the waves pound in and out. At Ross Farm, children will love to see a “working” farm where they still raise animals and grow crops. And bake sales and lobster suppers in community halls all over the area are delicious!

A Quality Rental Experience

We've been renting our two homes for 25 years to people from places as far away as Germany and Hong Kong. We strive to make our guests' stays completely enjoyable. After you reserve, we will mail you driving instructions, information about the house, and things to do in the area.

The house will be thoroughly cleaned before your arrival and if something should occur during your stay, we have a handyman on standby and a variety of service specialists who should be able to fix any problems quickly. We also provide excellent communication by phone and email prior to and during your stay.

Security cameras

We do not have any indoor security cameras, but we have two outdoors. They monitor the front entryway (mounted to the side of the door) and monitor the driveway (mounted on the greenhouse). If you would like us to disable any of these cameras from recording when they detect motion while you’re there, just ask us.

Our Rates

Our rental rates are priced similarly to other higher-end Nova Scotia oceanfront homes. The cost and the minimum nights we require vary depending on the time of year and the duration of your stay. For week-long rentals, we rent from Saturday to Saturday but may be able to make an exception based on demand.

The rent we charge is in US dollars, includes all taxes, and will be converted by the website to CDN$ for Canadian guests. We do not charge a cleaning fee. Pets are welcome for a non-refundable $100 US fee.

Availability

If SkyView is booked during the week you are travelling, please note that we also own 'THE FENNEL OLD HOUSE,' a renovated 100-year old home next door. It sits on a picturesque cove overlooking a wide bay, 50. feet from the water. The property has gorgeous views from many vantage points, including from four decks, a gazebo, and dock. It sleeps up to seven people. Please see our VRBO listing #309521 or HomeAway listing #393316.

Contact Us

We hope you have the chance to experience our little piece of heaven. We must take reservations through the website, but please reach me at 617-909-7279 to discuss any questions. I can call you back to save you any charges.

Breathtaking views

This place was so lovely, 2 nights was not enough time for us. The house was beauiful with the natural light in every room, kitchen well stocked, lots of counterspace, great for cooking and entertaining. Woodstove kept it warm and cozy. Would love to go back. It was so fun driving on Crescant Beach, brought back some lovely childhood memories. What a beautiful beach and so close by.

A stunning location with outstanding views from every room

I think the best way to describe our visit is outline the very good/excellent, the good and could use improvement. The very good/excellent pertains to the unique location with outstanding views from every window. It is worthwhile staying here just for this reason alone. The other very good issue is the availability of a lovely wood burning stove with an unlimited supply of wood. Also excellent were the great walks from the property along a quiet road, past fishing huts, small inlets with deer roaming freely around the island. You can walk to Risser’s Park (round trip approximately 17km). The good included an excellent gas oven and a new large clean fridge. The kitchen was really well stocked with any pot, pan, dish or item you could possibly want. The availability of laundry facilities was also an added bonus. There is a table tennis table which we didn’t have time to use. We didn’t have too many issues under the could use improvement area, but I found the rather extensive rules, do’s and don’ts made me feel very awkward and a little uncomfortable the entire time. I think Mont would be better off providing the house rules but perhaps eliminate the numerous examples. In addition he could just ask people to keep the oven top clean and to please use coasters on the various tables. The bathrooms were functional but dated. Our bed sheets looked crumpled and we weren’t sure if they had been washed. The cleanliness of the floor on arrival could have been better.

Heaven in Nova Scotia

We recently had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful property for 2 weeks in late April 2024. Our goal was to get away and enjoy some peace and quiet. The weather was fantastic, don't be afraid to visit in April, the days were sunny and cool, and when it rained the house was a sanctuary, with a wood stove and 360 degree windows to enjoy the view of the ocean, sunset and sunrise unobstructed by other properties. Perfect to read, play games and cook. Our host Mont, was so helpful, always available to answer any questions. The house was fully equipped with anything you would need to cook. Lots of books, laundry, heating if needed, everything was spotlessly clean, lots of towels, bedding, beds are very comfortable. In addition, the wireless was perfect, and during playoffs my partner took over the tv room to enjoy. We brought our Firestick, worked perfectly. You can easily work from here and end the day with a walk on Crescent Beach. Every morning at sunrise a herd of deer would stop by to nibble on the grass, so special. We will definitely be back, it felt like a home. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

Wonderful Nova Scotia experience

This unique house is situated on the highest point on historic LaHave Island, just off the south coast of Nova Scotia. It is spacious, well appointed and has marvelous views over the treetops, of the waterways surrounding the island. We stayed there at the end of June, and the morning mists, which usually burned off, created a magical atmosphere. A 5 minute drive took us to fabulous Crescent Beach, a broad white sand beach stretching for 3 miles, which rivals anything on the Eastern seaboard of the U.S. Our host Mont was very pleasant to deal with, and provided an extensive useful information package about the house and the area, which helped us to settle in. He was very responsive to our needs. There was no problem with our Border Collie staying with us. Altogether we'd highly recommend Skyview for a vacation retreat in this scenic and unspoiled corner of Nova Scotia.

Action packed week at Skyview, LaHave Islands

Our family of 5 (2 adults, 2 teens, 1 child) had a fantastic stay at Skyview House. The house is spacious and well appointed for a family getaway. I highly recommend the house and the location. Mont, the owner, was a great resource for local information. The house comes with a very useful booklet of information that eliminates any questions one may have. We swam at Crescent Beach, hiked at Hirtle’s beach and Gaff point, sea kayaked around the islands, surfed at Lawrencetown, and had a great dinner at the Osprey’s Nest. The Ploughman and the LaHave bakery are great spots for lunch. Any groceries are easily accessible in Bridgewater or the Petite Rivière General Store. Great family time for a short visit to the East Coast. Thanks, Mont! We hope to be back!

Spectacular vistas from beautiful LaHave Island house

We enjoyed this beautiful house full of skylights perched on the highest point of Bell island with spectacular views in every direction. The owner was a pleasure to deal with and accompanying documents that he provided on the house facilities and nearby attractions were very informative. We enjoyed cycling to nearby Crescent beach, the local island church and museum and we walked the trail at Rissers Beach. The property is a short drive to the LaHave bakery and nearby galleries. We also parked our vehicle and took our bikes across the LaHave ferry to Riverport and Kingsburg where we enjoyed Hirtles beach and the Gaff Point Trail. We also enjoyed our visit to the Maritime Painted Saltbox Gallery and Mariner Crafts in Petite Rivière. I would definitely recommend this location for the artist and outdoor enthusiast because there is so much to do and see! Next time we would definitely go sea kayaking as it is the perfect way to explore the islands. We would highly recommend this house and its location for those that want to experience all that this picturesque area of Nova Scotia has to offer.

Perfect Escape

Such a beautiful and peaceful spot. Loved sunset walks on Crescent Beach and then coming back to cook dinner with a fire in the wood stove. Appreciated the well-stocked spice supply. Watching the sunrise from the master bedroom was a perfect start to the day. The house feels far removed, but it is still an easy drive to Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, and Kejimkujik Park. Weekend brunch at LaHave bakery was lovely.

Skyview stay

The Skyview house was a large and well cared for home on an island hill that overlooked the area with its views above the tree tops. All amenities advertised were there and we found the house to be very well stocked making it much easier to cook without trips to a store for needed basics (not an easy task due to the location of the house on the island) Enjoyed our time there and appreciate the effort the family has made to make a stay comfortable for all.

Extraordinary setting in Nova Scotia

Skyview on La Have Island is a beautiful, comfortable, well-appointed home with extraordinary views of the water and forest. The beds are very comfortable, the bathrooms are spacious, the kitchen has everything you need to make a great meal including a spotless full-size fridge and dishwasher, as well as plenty of dishes, tableware, glasses, bowls, and small appliances. The great room is perfect for enjoying the natural surroundings and the furniture is comfortable and cozy. Skyview is an easy ride to Crescent Beach, a sandy spot to enjoy waves and a great spot to put in your kayak. The La Have Bakery is a 20 minute drive and should not be missed - delicious breakfasts, lunches, and baked goods with indoor and outdoor seating. We headed into Lunenberg (a 50 minute drive) twice to enjoy the freshest seafood dinners along with the shops and waterfront. We are looking forward to a return trip to Skyview!

The photos do not do justice to the beauty of the home, view and surroundings.

We loved our stay! All of our guests were blown away by the beauty and view. The house is spotless and has any utensil you may need to feel like you are in your own home. Each room is unique, warm and filled with coastal charm. I will definitely be returning the next time I have guests visiting so I can show off the beauty of the south shore. The owner was very helpful and replied quickly via email if I had any questions.
