The Eagle's Landing on Minamkeak Lake

Nestled upon a hill and overlooking Minamkeak Lake, the Eagle's Landing is a perfect affordable, well-appointed and comfortable studio. Deck overlooking the lake with BBQ, galley kitchen, heated bathroom floor with rain shower, air conditioning, and WIFI.

Please note that I have a German Shepherd on the property. All bark no bite and loves attention. Mr. Oso is his name. a.k.a. Mr. Walkenpoo, I do my daily rounds but he loves to leave me little gifts in the driveway at times! Watch your step.

The Eagle's Landing is a walkout studio below the Eagle's Nest. The property sits at the end of a dead-end road just 3 km from the highway. Bob & the Boys, the local Farm Market is right at the corner, with fresh local produce from Nova Scotia. Just 10 minutes away you are in downtown Bridgewater, a mid-size town with all conveniences, including groceries, hardware, banks, hospital etc.

On the way, you will pass by Indian Farms. Also local produce but the chance to pick strawberries (early July), raspberries, blueberries, (August), Apples (September).

Now for the Beaches. Beaches are within 25 km of the house (30 minutes max). These include Crescent Beach, Bachman's beach (Second Peninsula), Risser's Beach Provincial Park, Hirtle's Beach, White Point, and Summerville Beach.

Also about 30 minutes away is Historical Lunenburg with its fabulous restaurants, harbour, waterfront promenade, our infamous Bluenose, a Golf course, shopping, horse and buggy rides, pottery shops, pub and more.

Apart from kicking back and enjoying the lake, you can see the Oven's Park with its Natural Sea Caves and the thunderous roar of the waves crashing. Indian Falls, is a local watering hole, with a natural swimming pool and its own little waterfalls.

If you are concerned about sharing the house with the Eagle's Nest on the level above, please note that the Nest in no longer being rented and I live there. The Eagle's Landing studio has its private parking and entrance, a private deck with a Pergola, and privacy lattice. covered in grape vines.

Have a great vacation and enjoy Nova Scotia!!

Lovely lakefront hideaway near Lunenburg
We loved our stay at this lovely lakefront hideaway! The place was clean, comfortable, cute, and well-stocked. And the property was fantastic!!! Loved the views from all the windows and the nice deck. And it was a great pleasure to go down to the very private lakefront every day for relaxing sits, breakfast, and paddling the supplied kayaks. And we loved the brief visit and great tips from our kind host, Corrine, and her sweet big dog, Mr. Oso. We highly recommend this fantastic place if you're visiting the nearby (45 min away) Lunenburg or The Ovens or just want a nice place to relax.

Lovely spot - as advertised
Quaint property a short trip from Lunenburg. Quiet, peaceful - if you need a break from the hustle, this is your spot. Only stayed one night, but place was super well equipped. Took the kayak out for a paddle. Host was responsive, friendly and available (if needed), otherwise you didnt notice she was on-site. Highly recommended!

Amazing little spot on the lake! We had everything we needed and it was nice to relax by the lake after a day of sightseeing. If you stay, take the time for a swim and paddle a kayak out on the lake. And have a visit with Corinne and Oso because they are amazing!

Quiet lakeside rural studio retreat
Attended a week long course in Lunenburg so we decided to stay at this property. I swam twice daily in the gorgeous lake. We enjoyed two evenings in the double kayak exploring parts of the lake. We bought local farm produce from Bob and the Boys. We did some cycling in the area. We did not see anyone on the lake during our stay so it was quiet and peaceful.

Wonderful Little Spot!
My fiancé and I enjoyed our stay at the Eagles Nest for our anniversary, the space was exactly what we wanted for a getaway! We loved that all we had to do was bring our clothes and food, that makes travelling so much easier! Corinne was very kind and welcoming, her pup Mr. Oso is a gentle giant! Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

Your own “private” lake away from it ALL!
So glad we found this listing which I chose so that my fiancé could swim in a lake. Total peace and privacy in a renovated studio apartment and kayaks/float for your use down by the water. Corinne has thought of everything, and you can tell it is a labor of love. Lovely clean water for swimming/kayaking did not see another soul.

We had a wonderfully quiet and relaxing weekend at The Eagle’s Landing and it actually turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. It was easy to find and central to everything we wanted to see and do. The outdoor space was completely awesome and we spent our mornings drinking tea listening to birds, suppers by candlelight at the bistro table and reading on the couch before heading inside to bed, all while surrounded by cascading grape vines on the deck. The interior was cozy and very well stocked with anything might need, the air conditioning was a nice addition but the windows also open, letting in the country air. The bathroom was spacious and modern with a rain head shower. Little extras like outdoor sensored lighting, homemade pottery made onsite,clothes line, BBQ and even a small freezer. The other really AMAZING feature about this property was the short walk to the lake. We took advantage of the wonderful space created by our host at the lake’s edge. Pea gravel to the dock made swimming and kayaking easy to access, the water was quite warm. Kayaks were supplied as well as life jackets and we enjoyed gliding over water lilies, spotting the elusive Mr. Beaver and seeing many different bird species while gazing at the gorgeous sunset. It really was icing on the cake after a long day of being a tourist. Corinne and Mr. Oso were excellent hosts. We had some great chats and were made to feel comfortable and right at home. I hope to return again.

Perfect getaway spot!
We only stayed one night, but we had an amazing time and wish we could have stayed longer! The property had everything we needed and more, and the hosts, Corinne and Mr. Oso, were so welcoming and friendly! Great spot to unplug for a little getaway from the city, and you can very clearly tell Corinne takes great pride in her beautiful property. Corinne and Mr. Oso were staying down by the water so we were able to sit and chat, but she also gave us our own space which was a perfect balance! She even played some nice music while we sat and watched the sunset from the lake :) Highly recommend, and we can't wait to go back. Thanks Corinne and Mr. Oso!

The lake was beautiful and it was wonderful to have the use of the kayak. There were a couple of things we would recommend: a complete clean of webs under furniture - it helps control the bugs (which are expected in a secluded area). Not being able to have a key or lock our unit when we were out, although the host offered to go and get a key made. Also, guests should know they need to bring brickets and fuel. The bed was comfortable and although you are below the hosts home, it was quiet.
