Adventure and Relaxation in a Unique Environment

Choose Golden Crest as your private residence far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, located in the beautiful and extensive forests of the South Shore of Nova Scotia's Ponhook Lake. Enjoy the stunning views of the lake's varied islands and bays or dive directly into the cool lake water after a sauna session.

Relax by your own campfire right on the shore and hear the owls calling while the stars twinkle above the water. Choose between pure relaxation or activities on and around the lake. Numerous well-known excursion destinations are ideally located for day trips in accessible surroundings.

The other ensuite bathroom has a floor-level rain shower and a bathtub. The bedrooms are connected to the lounges on the east and west sides of the building, which ensures maximum privacy.
