Updated June 29 2021 . Great news!! restrictions have been lifted for travel in Canada so we will be taking bookings for the rest of the summer from all over Canada. We still have 13 days left in July from July 4th to 17th . Here is your chance to get our rental at a very reduced rate. From July 4 to July 10 for only $1200 tax included and from July 10th to 17th would be $1500 tax included .We usually charge $1900 a week.

We took that time to completely renovate and upgrade our rental. We finished painting the outside of the house last year . We put a new large deck in the front, replaced the back door, installed a new heat pump that cools and heats throughout the beach house. We painted the downstairs and brought two new large sofas as well. We will have Wifi as well now after years not being able to get it. Our guests will be happy to see all the new improvements. We are exciting to once again be able to open to everyone across Canada again.

Gladee's at Hirtle's Beach is a fourth generation, 150-year-old home ,newly renovated and restored to high stardards. Our family feels privileged to share it as a Nova Scotia cottage rental for guests to enjoy.

Each bedroom is furnished with family antiques and custom-designed pine furniture built by my father and I. The curtains were hand-sewn locally, original artwork is by your host Kevin Creaser -- that's me. As well, Gladee's has a unique gathering of Nova Scotian collectables.

Queen size bed and two doubles accommodate six. Two of the beds have antique frames used by my great-grandfather's family. We fitted them to new, quality mattresses which top box springs, thereby adding to our guests' comfort. Each bed has two night stands and two small, mood-setting table lamps. Soft romance or settling in for a good read, the choice is yours. The bedrooms have flashlights -- even if they're not needed, the youngsters enjoy using them!

Gladee's location is exceptional. The house perches next to some two-plus miles of white sandy beach which lays out the welcome mat to waders, body surfers and beachcombers. A stones throw away sits a protected, sandy-bottom lake that is popular with swimmers. For a truly unforgettable hike, continue along the beach to Gaff Point. Treasured by the Kingsburg Coastal Conservancy, local residents and visitors alike, it offers a stunning display of ocean, forest, rock cliffs and wildlife.
What Stands Out?
The starring role goes to the Atlantic Ocean whose moods can change in the blink of an eye. While strolling along the beach or picnicking on a glacial drumlin, a memento of the last Ice Age; she may offer a tranquil, peaceful setting or a crashing, mighty display of power.
