The Three Churches of Mahone Bay

So Much To Explore On The South Shore

Lake William

Nova Scotia is truly a land of rivers, streams, lakes and ocean. Solomon Brook feeds into nearby Lake William. It is a beautiful swimming lake with a small park and playground for kids as well as a floating dock with diving board and is only a 3 minute drive from the farm. It is very easy to get to  but like many things in Nova Scotia not marked. A hidden gem. We go there often. 

Indian Falls

There are many many waterfalls in Nova Scotia. Some people make a holiday just out of trying to see all the waterfalls. Indian falls is stunning and one of our favourites and is only a 10 minute drive from the farm. In 2004 it was made into a municipal park so is well maintained with picnic tables, on site privies, walking trails, rock beach and look off points. There is also a popular spot for a rock climb and cliff jump into the pool at the base of the falls.  .

Mahone Bay

Mahone Bay is a very picturesque sea side village and is a popular tourist destination. Settled in 1754, it invites you to experience its history as well as its unique shops, artisans and culinary experiences, as well as outdoor adventures. Mahone Bay is a must - see town on the coast of Nova Scotia and is only a 25 minute drive from the farm..

The Historic Town of Lunenburg

The town of Lunenburg is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and its colourful buildings, historic sites, harbour front and delicious seafood makes it another very popular stopping place. It is home to the famous schooner Bluenose 11 and the Folk Harbour Festival takes place there every summer and is Nova Scotia's longest running festival taking place over 4 days with music, dance, workshops and conferences. It is about a 40 minute drive from the farm

Rissers Beech

If you love the beach Rissers is great fun!. Only a 55 minute drive from the farm, Rissers beach offers 1.5 km of beautiful sheltered sandy beach. The beach is part of Rissers Provincial Park with amenities such as a supervised beach in July and August, a change house with showers and washrooms, playground, trails, a picnic area, interpretation centre, a boardwalk along an inland marsh and two campgrounds.
