Relax with the whole family at this peaceful paradise on Trout Lake, New Albany, NS. Enjoy magical sunsets from the large lakeside patio, comfortably furnished screen room or firepit. Take in the scenery via kayaks, paddle boat or bicycles. A quick float or a short walk with water shoes will take you to a swimming area with a floating dock complete with cup holders & reclining seats. BBQ & full kitchen on site. WiFi, Sat TV, & outside/inside games provided for your entertainment. This property is a two bedroom cozy cottage with a full kitchen & a bathroom with stand-up shower. The cottage has its own dug well and the water is safe to drink, but bottled water is provided. The master bedroom has a king sized bed, two dressers, closet & desk/chair if a working vacation is 'on the books'. There is a spare bedroom with a queen sized bed, closet & dresser, as well as a double pull out sofa bed in the living area. The living area has a comfortable couch, two recliners and the pull out sofa bed as mentioned, to sit back for a little R&R. There is a dining room table with room for six, if family dinners at the table are preferred. Not everyone can be 'disconnected' from it all. Therefore, there is the option to utilize the Bell Fibre op wifi & Bell satellite tv if so desired. We feel for some individuals, news, sports and Treehouse are a must have, even away from home. Also available for your listening pleasure, a G-oogle Nest with YouTube Premium Music to play any song you request. We have had a heat pump installed to provide comfort, whether too hot or cold, we want everything to be 'just right'. If you choose to rent the cottage in the spring, fall or winter, we also have a wood stove if the idea of snuggling up next to a warm fire reading, relaxing or binge watching your favourite show is enticing. There is a beautiful spacious deck with lots of seating to relax with a cup in your hand, get your tan on and enjoy the beautiful sunsets at the lake. The screened & furnished outdoor living space is great for shade, cozying up with a good book and a great retreat if the evenings get a bit 'buggy'. There is a fire pit equipped with chairs and a great lakeside view to enjoy and create lasting memories with you and your loved ones. You would definitely want s'more :) Kids and adults alike can enjoy their own private beach and create master pieces in the sand. There is also a dock with the property to utilize, if taking out the paddle boat, etc. fits in your plans. The cottage is in a shallow cove without a drop off, which is great for littles. You will have access and directions to a swimming platform which is great for swimming and throwing around the football with friends/family. The backyard of this property is completely fenced in which provides a great safe space for any well behaved doggo that may be looking forward to a retreat on Trout Lake as well. We purchased this cottage officially on July 28th. We have been very busy throughout the summer preparing the cottage for our potential guests. We have many upgrades planned for the future (i.e. heat pump (installed mid August), additional outlets/lights (end Sept), new roof (fall ‘22), new windows, doors & paint (spring'23), floors (in the midst) and more…).
