Dear Wanda,
We are very happy that we found your unique little paradise. Although we were only here for two days, we felt so comfortable that we could stay for months. Today we had a great day with “The Balancing Rock” and a spectacular sunset. We love the ocean and so this beautiful place was perfect for us. We will recommend your cottage in any case and hope that we get the chance to come back. All the best for you and your family,

Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality, and allowing my mom and I to stay and experience Gulliver’s Cove. The cottage is beautiful and comfortable, the trails by the water are breathtaking! We truly appreciate you showing us your passion for sustainability, as it is one of mine as well! The dulse, dulse biscuits, the clamming & Terry the “clammer”- all wonderful memories my mom and I will take away from our experience in NS. Thank you for making our mother/daughter vacation a memorable one! Hope to see your Dulse in whole foods in Toronto some day!!!

Thanks again, Cassandra and Shelley Buffett, Toronto Ontario

Wanda-Thank you & your family for sharing your beautiful cottage & surrounding area. We loved every minute of our (too brief) stay at Gulliver’s Cove. We wish we would have had more time to spend talking with you- you are a remarkable woman! We will remember you always. To any future visitors, After sight-seeing around Digby and Fundy, make sure you see the beautiful stars on a clear evening, take time to walk the cove (watch out for the little green crabs!), and watch the humming birds dart on & off the deck. Gulliver’s Cove is an amazing get away!Thank you again for sharing!

Hi Wanda,
W
ow! Great location, nice and comfortable furniture. For a “Chef” this was a real pleasure to cook here, I had everything I needed. Thanks! For the fresh scallop place, I did a “Beurre Blanc with white wine and orange glazed” for the scallops and put your “Dulse on it”. This was so delicious. We would certainly stay here again, and I will tell my friends about this quiet and amazing spot. Thanks for allowing us to be here at this time of year. The look off is wonderful.

When we contemplate the pleasure of family life and the importance of sharing moments of happiness and joy, this place “Gullivers Cove” will be one place that will ignite these memories. We do not know if we will return but when we close our eyes, my brain will produce the memories and images of this lovely place.

Wanda, we have enjoyed your lovely vacation home and have enjoyed learning about all your activities- The dulsing is new to us. This area is spectacularly beautiful – your cove is just a hop away out the back door. Your furniture is so comfy- the Queen bed, soft and comfy.

Thanks Sandy, Jane and Dolly

Wanda, it was a pleasure meeting you! My daughters and I enjoyed our stay at your “retreat”. It was so relaxing and peaceful here! Your cottage is very clean and bright and cozy! The “lookout” was amazing and we did see a whale, although he only appeared briefly, but we could hear him “blowing”!! Thanks for everything and we’ll see you again!

Hi Wanda & Calvin:
We had a wonderful time in your cottage- thank you so much. The cycling & sight-seeing were perfect and we will definitely try to come back. Nol’s birthday lobster was a special treat- we’ll send a picture!
You have been so kind & generous. The walk to your special place was the final touch.

All the best, Nol & Jill

Thank you so much Wanda & Calvin for a wonderful week.  You offer so much more here than a beautiful cottage in a secluded cove…You provide an experience.  All the amusement parks anywhere in the world are the same, but nothing compares to the variety of activities and experiences available to a family right here in Gulliver’s Cove.  I guarantee we will always remember our beach bonfire for the excellent company, the smores, and the trip home that night!  You have a great piece of heaven right here and we will definitely return.  Thank you again.

Thank you Wanda for a lovely stay in your beautiful, comfortable, restful, peaceful and downright idyllic setting.  Thanks for arranging those whales to come and perform for us, for the walk, the beach, the dulse, the agate…for so many things that have made our first visit to Nova Scotia so good.  I hope we’ll come again-but we’re telling our family and friends too, so you’re going to be busy!  Good luck & best wishes.

What a lovely point in the world!  Thank you Wanda for showing us your beautiful look out and the pretty stones.  What a pity that we must leave this area-but we want to see as most as possible in our vacation.  And thank you very much for your hospitality!

What a beautiful spot!  We had a fabulous time hunting rocks and exploring the cove.  The boys became soooo brave climbing rocks.  We missed the whales in the cove but saw some seals.  The whale tour out of Petites Passage turned out to be more that amazing-Thanks for recommending that tour.  The guys were great but the whales-they put on an unbelievable show.  Awesome vacation here in Gulliver’s Cove.  We will be recommending this piece of heaven.
