Tourism Industry Association of Nova Scotia
2000 Tourism Awards of Excellence
Accommodation Award

"The diversity of our Tourism product is crucial to
meeting the expectations and desires of the many
travelers throughout Nova Scotia. Our
accommodation mix provides a wide range of
unique experiences to complement the
communities and cities in which they reside. The
winner of the 2000 Accommodation Award is a
model example of a facility that fits into the local
landscape and maximizes the natural beauty and
wonder of nature's gift.

A family business since 1928, built on land that has
belonged to the family since 1771, this year's
winner has built up a loyal and significant clientele,
offering a product that provides a safe haven in a
truly Nova Scotian setting on Green Bay, in
Lunenburg County. This operation is truly one of
Nova Scotia's best kept secrets! What started as
one cottage has expanded over the years into 22
housekeeping cottages, with a foodservice
operation. A quality experience is offered with the
family ensuring their guests are the number one
priority. With the sea as a backdrop, the owners.
have developed a product that represents an elite
example of our Nova Scotia Tourism infrastructure
- drawing those seeking solitude and simplicity.

It is businesses like this that for decades have built
Nova Scotia's reputation as a Destination of Choice!
As one of the nominators for the Award stated, "this
is a secret place and I hate to share it - but I will."

We are very glad that they did!

TIANS is very pleased to present the 2000
Accommodation Award to MacLeod Cottages on Green Bay."
