I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a beautiful place to stay in the wine region of Nova Scotia. We had the one king in the sunny bedroom and it was absolutely gorgeous! The hard wood floors were so nice and the recently remodeled bathroom was very modern, clean, and spacious. Aside from the cleanliness, comfort, and beauty of the Inn and the room we stayed in, the staff (while not always present due to the contactless check-in/out) was very responsive when I had to text about a few questions we had. They got back to me right away and were very polite and helpful in their response. You can tell they take so much pride in keeping their Inn in excellent condition and comfortable and pleasant for their guests. Additionally, the free breakfast they offered was homemade and very delicious (and I'm not a breakfast person!). I would stay here again in a heartbeat if I'm ever in the area again.

Wonderful!!

This is my new number 1 favorite place to stay. Let me start with my most important point - cleanliness, this place is immaculate, very nicely renovated, very well thought out/planned, down to every detail, the flooring, everything. I love the contactless check in. Makes it very easy especially if you will be arriving late, no need to meet a deadline arrival. Communication is great. I got a text with all the specifics I needed. Now time for breakfast. The most amazing food I have ever had at any hotel. Homemade GF/DF granola, local sourdough bread. The quality and flavor of everything was superb. The staff were so friendly. The dining area was beautiful. The whole place has such a warm and cozy/homey feel to it. I went with my daughter and she absolutely oved it too. We are now going to make this a yearly trip of ours because it was so wonderful!

I recently had the pleasure of staying one night at this charming boutique hotel, and it was an exceptional experience. The property was beautiful and thoughtfully designed. They have cozy fire pits outside that created a warm and inviting atmosphere. They even provided kits for s’mores, which the kids absolutely loved! The room was immaculate—super clean, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. They really thought out every detail when designing this hotel. They also offered a light delicious breakfast, which was the perfect way to start the day. Overall, a fantastic stay for families or anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommend!

After coming down to eat breakfast at 10h10 , though it was 10h30 the cut off time…the person there just said sorry we are done at 10h00. She had plates full of food that she could have offered to us or even a cup of coffee…but instead just smiled ans said sorry breakfast is over. To me that is not customer service. If everything would have been cleaned no worries, but it just looked like she wanted to get it done and too bad for you.

We LOVED our stay at The August House. We were in town for a nearby wedding, and this was a perfect home base. Beautiful property, we felt safe and it was very quiet. Loved all of the little touches around the property. The self controlled AC was a bonus for two people who love a cooler temp, and the sound machine was a nice addition as well. Only good things to say. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area.
