Hubbards sits on the western shore of St. Margarets Bay near the Lunenburg County line, with its beaches, its summer crowds and a busy season that fills every cottage and rental from late June to Labour Day. Year-round homes, summer places that have been in families for generations and short-term rentals share the same coastline and the same weather.
For rental owners, guest comfort is everything, and bright bedrooms at 5:30 a.m. in July are one of the most common complaints. For cottage owners, damp winters are the enemy.
What we fit most here: blackout roller shades in every bedroom, moisture-resistant faux wood blinds in kitchens and bathrooms, solar shades on ocean-facing living rooms and cordless operation throughout for families with young children. We book installs in spring and fall so nothing is off the rental market in summer.
Frequently asked questions
What blinds should a short-term rental owner choose?
Blackout roller or cellular shades in bedrooms, durable moisture-resistant products everywhere else, and cordless operation throughout. They improve guest sleep, stand up to turnover and are safe for families.
When should I book cottage blinds in Hubbards?
Book a measure in early spring for installation before late June, or in late summer for a fall install. Both avoid peak rental season.
