On our trip through Nova Scotia we (2 adults, 2 kids) also wanted to visit the famous Kejimkujik National Park for a canoeing trip. As the park is half way (50km) between Digby (north) and Liverpool (south), we were looking for a comfortable inn/motel which we definitely found by booking the Whitman Inn for 2 nights. The appartment was well... More

Not a lot of choices between Annapolis Royal and Liverpool, and we don't camp so we found Whitman Inn as our base for our visit to Keji. It is closer to the entrance to the park than it looks on a map which was helpful. The place is spacious even though our room was not, but for less than $100... More

Herbert and Monika, made our stay in there great Inn, an experience I won't soon forget. The rooms were comfortable. The house itself was very nice. We played pool one evening. Herbert cooked the meals. My Halibut (one night) and salmon the next were delicious. I would definitely return. I feel as though I made two new friends.

The whole setting of the Whitman Inn is simple, but offers the essentials to stay comfortably close to the Kejimkujik National Park. Our room was rather small. The lady-owner was quite nervous as the inn was full during the first of our two nights stay. We found out the reason: the owners had taken over the place only 6 months... More

The apartment has a full kitchen, and was very nice for our family. The hostess was congenial and helpful. The Whitman Inn provides an excellent value, and the location (close to Keji) is ideal. We never used the pool, but had great fun in the game room.

When we arrived at 1pm, nobody was ready in the Inn. We got the statement, that normally, nobody arrives that early... the only reason, we arrived that early, was to get some information about the park; unfortunately, there were no infos around. The host was not interested in informing us and only referred to national park office (10km down the... More

Stayed at Whitman Inn for three nights in the two bedroom self catering apartment. Great service, tasty meals in the small restaurant the owners run between 6 and 8 pm; the haddock was particulary memorable. Very quiet place, clean and friendly. The appartment itself is functional, but don't expect anything great -- it is quite small and not intended for... More

Very tidy room with private bath room (no tub just a shower in my room although they have tubs in other rooms) Comfortable beds/ bedding. No A/C but a fan was sufficient. Large games room with Satelltie TV, Good size indoor pool... More
