Avid VW campers Details: We are a retired couple. We have travelled extensively in the US and Canada in our VW Westfalia. We enjoy hosting others at our home. When it is safe to travel again we are looking forward to using this service. Meanwhile, we are both double vaccinated with boosters and welcome guests who are the same. We have immune compromised family members so are trying to stay as safe as possible. Home Town: The nearest community to us is Mahone Bay, a well-known tourist town on the south shore of Nova Scotia. We are approximately 15 minutes from there. We are within half an hour of Lunenburg and Bridgewater. We are in a very pretty wooded rural setting on a small river. Favorite Boondocking Locations: We enjoy boondocking at government wharves in Atlantic Canada. Skills or Expertise to Share: David is skilled at making small RV and VW van repairs.

We have met so many lovely people during our travels, but we feel blessed to have met Robin & David. How grateful we are that they accepted our stay request at their beautiful home near Mahone Bay. The location, well, it was perfect. The site involved minimal set up on a paved area. Their parklike setting was close to water & electricity. Our hosts were the epitome of kindness and generosity. To sit with them and chat was one of our favourite parts of the visit. Both are fascinating individuals with a wealth of knowledge to share with fellow travellers. Robin & David, thank you so much for such a wonderful stay.

We stayed here a few weeks ago and I am just now getting caught up with my reviews! We very much appreciated the chance to stay at the acreage. There was lots of parking space, and the generosity of our hosts was outstanding. It is such a lovely setting, and our dog loved the woods to play in. We were invited to use the laundry which was a godsend and in addition our fridge propane malfunction was repaired, which made a huge difference to the rest of our travels. Many thanks for your hospitality and generosity.

We planned on one night, but the hosts were so amazing anf had such good ideas for our stay that we extended to two nights. My 2 girls (12 and 8) built some amazing memories with Robin and D. We shared many a laugh and hope to cross paths soon!
