Please be aware that for stays exceeding 27 days, it's essential to inquire about specific local regulations, as these may change after 28 days.

To maintain a respectful environment for everyone, I kindly ask that all guests adhere to my policy regarding unregistered visitors. When making a reservation, please include every individual in your party. This includes infants, toddlers, and children, as anyone over two years of age incurs an additional guest fee of $47.

Bringing unregistered guests, even temporarily, can lead to complications, including potential additional fees or immediate cancellation without a refund. Since I reside just across the road, it’s best to keep things transparent—honesty is greatly appreciated.

For added peace of mind, I conduct a thorough video recording of the entire property prior to your check-in, ensuring protection for both guests and the owner in the rare case of damages.

Please note that government regulations require the inclusion of HST tax in your total stay cost. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

You are sure to have a remarkable time here. If you have further inquiries, feel free to call or text me at (902)452-5469, email me at mailto:theredroof@kiwiblast.com, or visit https://holidaynovascotia.com/redroof.
