We absolutely loved our stay at the Magnolia Inn! The place was spotless, and the little extras included in our stay were a thoughtful and unexpected touch. Our room was cozy and inviting, and the bathroom felt luxurious with its spacious walk-in shower. Craig was easygoing and a pleasure to chat with, it’s clear he and his wife have poured their hearts into this new venture. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily stay again.

Mahone Bay getaway

We stayed in the king suite. The room was very spacious and the bathroom was even larger! The inn is very clean and the bed was comfortable. It is located in a great part of town and an easy walk to most restaurants. The inn keepers were out of town during our stay but reached out to us after our stay to see how we enjoyed their inn.

This is a lovely lovely Inn and a fabulouse place to stay. The rooms are newly renovated, clean and beautifully appointed. The location is perfect ... within walking distance of pretty much everything in Mahone Bay. Yet still very quiet. I Highly recommend this place.

This was our favorite place to stay in Nova Scotia. The Inn was beautiful and our room luxurious. We loved the ability to walk to some great restaurants and shopping. It was also close to hiking the Ovens, Blue Rocks and sightseeing Lunenburg. We loved our stay

The property owners were welcoming and responsive. We were greeted by a onsite staff member who checked us in and showed us to our room. We were pleased to have a unit at the back of the property. Although there was no view of the bay, this was off set by having a fireplace, small kitchenette area, and a patio area. We were very pleased with the property.

Central place to be in Mahone Bay

Luxury rooms in a beautiful old house in the heart of Mahone Bay! This property offers on site parking, and comfortable rooms. We really enjoyed the premium linens (including robes!), spacious rooms (and bathroom!) and the shower is incredible. The room is equipped with a bar- sized fridge, kettle, and coffee machine. Light snacks are also provided. The building has been nicely maintained/restored, but before you book your stay you should know that it’s more like a rooming house in that each suite is assigned to a different person and the library and dining room are shared. There’s no access to kitchen facilities for preparing meals and the outdoor seating and BBQ is for guests in a specific room only. We enjoyed the 3 nights we stayed.

Wonderful stay

Magnolia Inn in Mahone Bay may have opened in 2024, but it’s housed in a beautifully restored historic property dating back to 1879. We were lucky to stay in the master bedroom on the second floor, which featured a spacious, modern bathroom. Each room includes a mini-fridge, smart TV, and Keurig coffee maker for added comfort. The first floor offers inviting shared spaces, including a cozy sitting room, a large dining area, and a quiet library—perfect if you need to get some work done. The entire inn is spotless and thoughtfully organized. Craig, the owner, was incredibly gracious and welcoming, and their summer staff (whose name we sadly forgot) was equally kind and helpful. We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to return.
