Your Experience
The Cresthaven by the Sea Experience
Food & Drink
Each day at Cresthaven by the Sea starts with a hot complimentary breakfast served in our historic dining room. Breakfast is served between 8 and 10 am but can be arranged earlier if needed by speaking with your host when you arrive.
For lunch and dinner guests have the opportunity to enjoy the local Mudslide Cafe located at Canada’s oldest running general story - the Frieze and Roy just steps away from our location, or take a short drive to dine in Kennetcook, Truro, Summerside, or Halifax. Ask your host for their favourite dining recommendations!

“Our stay here was just delightful! The views are incredible. Your host will cook you a delicious breakfast and explain the tides. This is a great place to view the tides coming in. Very comfortable. We had everything we needed! We will go back here for sure!”
