Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Porters Lake

Nice neighbourhood, we slept well, mattresses and rooms were comfy. Flavia greeted us when we arrived and she is a very nice person. House is very “busy” when you enter the house you realize that the family lives in there when not rented which is ok. A lot of their personal belongings were still in the house, so don’t be surprised. other than that, it was quiet, we had all we needed to cook and rest. I would rent again.

Brought our baby along with a pack'n'play. The bedroom had great blackout curtains, so baby slept soundly! Also, check-in instructions were very clear.

Another great weekend at the Owl & Otter. We keep coming back! Clean, well appointed, comfortable and extra small touches like home baked goods upon arrival. It’s our go-to for our semi annual girls weekend and we can’t say enough positive things about the space and Emily.

Very cozy place! It was right by the water with a beautiful view. Very convenient as well. We were about a 30 minutes drive from Downtown Halifax. Ashley was very responsive and helpful. Beautiful place and amazing host! I'd stay there again. :)

Lots of extra touches. Wonderful welcome basket that even included dog toys and treats (including wine for the 2-legged guests). Loved having the washer/dryer to use (when you are travelling this is really nice). Overall very positive experience.

Kelly and Doris are incredibly friendly and quick to respond. Our stay was a last minute booking. Both kelly and Doris helped us feel right at home. The property is an Oasis. It has everything your family will need. The pictures do not do it justice. The quiet peacefulness you feel well sitting by the lake is everything you want and need. We will be coming back!

We were in the city for a hockey tournament and loved staying at Zack’s cozy 3 bedroom apartment. It was spacious and quiet and a great location, close to the rinks! It was great to be able to have a larger space for our family and be able to make some meals rather than having to stay at a hotel. It was nice to be out of the city in a peaceful location away from the hustle of the city with free parking;) We will for sure stay here again!

A great base for our weekend visiting friends and family in Bedford, Halifax, and Dartmouth. Very spacious accommodation with a full kitchen and a great deck. Loved all the fall colours and the quiet surroundings. Easy access to the airport for our very early flight. Everything was super clean and hosts were very responsive when we had questions. Would definitely recommend. We didn't bring any dogs on this trip but I love that the house was dog friendly.

Awesome location, perfect for friends and a welcoming host. Definitely gonna visit again.

We really enjoyed our stay. Kate was awesome as was Nikki. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the short walk to Tuna Blue. We also went to the Hubbards beach, which was a short drive. We will definitely be back again!! :)

Great space to rent with friends and family! Very spacious, ample parking and great neighbourhood

The cottage in Hubbards was ideal for our stay. My daughter loved the little playground behind. Everything was clean and it was an extremely relaxing stay. Thank you for your great place and kind discussions whenever we passed each other during the days!

PAM & J.P were extraordinary. We were delighted with our stay and fell in love with Nova Scotia. The animals were an unexpected extra. Gustave is going to miss Maple a lot. Small comment WHICH IS NOT A CRITICISM. The refrigerator is not very big, so don't do too much grocery shopping at once. We arrived with too many things and not everything fit. But again, that's okay. There's a grocery store not far away. It's very easy. Just don't plan too far ahead if you have a big family like mine. The pool is amazing!!!!! Close to lots of beautiful beaches. We had a great time with the family!!!

we absolutely loved our stay in the cottages! We were able to use a lot of their amenities, Kayaks, boat, pool.. it was so much fun and we made some great memories as a family! Thank you to Katelyn for the great cottage and customer service, we hope to come back again :)

Sure! Here's a review-style version for you: "I had an incredible stay at Gary’s Airbnb! From the moment we arrived, Gary was the perfect host—fun, welcoming, and attentive. The property itself is stunning, with beautiful views of the lake that made every morning feel special. The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the comforts of home. But what really set this stay apart were the activities. There were so many indoor and outdoor options—whether you wanted to kayak, hike, or just relax by the water, this place had it all. Gary went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, and his energy made the experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a peaceful, fun-filled getaway with a fantastic host, this is the place for you. Highly recommend!"

My sister and I treated each other to a holiday sleepover in the woods and it was perfect. The sauna was the best part, but everything was lovely. Will absolutely come back.

Me and my partner had a great time! It was a well needed get away suited for all weather with the shelter covering all of the patio so you can still sit outside when it rains! As well there are lots of different ways to cook with the bbq and the fireplace, it had everything you would need for your stay if you only had the clothes on your back! The tote you get with the supplies for making a fire was excellent and well thought of. Overall it was a great stay and we will definitely be back!

Adorable place, with the best water and sunrise view. Quiet and private with everything we needed for the weekend. Would recommend!

What a beautiful place. Close enough to the city but so peaceful by the water. Check in was easy, place was clean. I couldn’t be more happy with our stay. Highly recommended!!

Kathy was an amazing host who accommodated to our needs. The space was clean, comfortable, and just like the pictures. Would definitely stay again if we visit Halifax in the future!

Cute 3 bedroom apartment as described. Sunny was always quick to respond to any questions. Very centrally located. I did find some of the beds to be firm and not the most comfortable but perhaps that's more a personal preference. Highly recommend!

My friends and I stayed at Erin’s place for 4 days while visiting Nova Scotia and it was a very calm and peaceful stay just outside of Halifax with a beautiful view. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend going here if you want a nice peaceful stay near Halifax!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. The host was extremely helpful and kind. We come out to nova scotia once a year and always love our time here. The host was so kind to let us charge our car on their property with our janky 100ft extention cord. The host was so kind when we met them in person one morning.
