Halifax Nova Scotia Vacation Brochure – On the Eastern Shore’s Marine Drive: Elephant's Nest Bed & Breakfast Waterfront & Breakfast Fireplace & Breakfast Private Bedrooms – Large Decks

We are nestled on a spring-fed lake just 40 minutes from downtown Halifax and the International airport.  Come and enjoy the serenity and peaceful surroundings of our comfortable country home on the lake.  The ice bucket will always be full for your arrival!  Upon rising you can choose an early morning swim or leisurely kayak up the lake as the sun is rising.  Stroll the flower gardens or walk the short woodland path and count the Hostas.  You may choose to just sit on the dock at waterside, listen to the birds and watch for the loons, osprey and bald eagles.
