What guests think
At The Fourth Lock Bed & Breakfast, travelers highlight very clean, reasonably priced rooms with scenic lake views and convenient access to the airport, alongside a lively on-site restaurant, easy self check-in, and a cozy shared lounge and deck.
Recurring drawbacks include noise from the bar, road, and other guests, low or soft beds, some rooms without a TV, and a very light grab-and-go breakfast. Many guests note friendly hosts and smooth keypad entry, though a number struggled to reach staff or receive codes, and parking and signage can be challenging when the restaurant is busy or after dark. Expect a clean, convenient lakeside stopover with good dining and occasional noise.

Facilities
The on-site restaurant/bar and a shared lounge with a lake-view deck are repeatedly praised, and self check-in by keypad generally works well. Parking can be tight during restaurant hours and signage/lighting at night can be hard to spot.

Would have preferred a guarantee parking spots rather than going to over flow parking waiting for restaurant guest to leave to get a parking spot - this was the only draw back to the stay.

There was little to no sound proofing in the room and other guests were quite loud, we could hear full conversations late at night. We could also hear the sounds of the restaurant quite clearly below us. When the restaurant was busy, there was a sign for overflow parking nearby but there were no dedicated parking spots for people staying at the inn. We had to wait about 20 minutes until people from the restaurant left so we could have a parking spot close enough to load/unload our vehicle. Nice spot, very clean, overall enjoyed the stay

There is a very nice restaurant/pub on the main level with great food and service. We arrived for checkin as advised but the self checkin requires an access code that we had not been provided in advance. After a bit of creative research we tracked down the needed code. That should have been advised through Expedia. Otherwise all was good.

This is a cute and unusual little place, conveniently located for Halifax airport. The instructions for self check in are very easy, the room is private and there is a little common living room area overlooking the lake, where you can make coffee at any time. The restaurant downstairs seems to be a very popular spot for locals and I ate a very tasty vegan meal there. I stayed here for two separate one night stays and the first night (a Tuesday), the restaurant was closed, but my second night was a Friday and the noise in the room from the restaurant was quite loud. The noise from the road is also very loud, unless you keep the window closed. There is a very large amount of traffic flowing past here and at times it is very difficult to get in and out of the driveway, which was surprising. I stayed in the Lake William room, which does have a partial view of the lake. The room was clean, but the bed wasn’t super comfortable for me. Overall I would recommend here, especially if you are on a budget, as the price is decent.

We had a wonderful stay here! The breakfast-to-go package was so kind and thoughtful. The view was stunning. The food in the downstairs restaurant was great! It was awesome not to have a TV in the upstairs unit. They have games available which were fun. The futon bed wasn’t very comfortable for the kids and the floors were not clean but otherwise was a fantastic little place.

Rooms
Rooms are often spacious with pleasant lake views and some have balconies, but several guests found the beds very low or too soft and some rooms lack a TV. Noise from the restaurant, road, and adjacent rooms is a recurring issue, and a few stays were uncomfortably warm due to limited cooling.

The Fletcher room was modern, beautifully decorated, and well thought out with access to a balcony and views of the lake. It was quiet even with a busy restaurant below. Check in super easy with an email you receive access to the outside door and the room. Breakfast-light continental set up in your room with coffee and tea available in a sitting room setup or on the balcony. The room just needs a small garbage can in the bathroom.

We stayed in the Thomas room. Very clean but quite noisy with traffic. It would have been nice to have a bigger spot to sit around. The people down stairs from us were very noisy around 1 am and we had someone knock on our door around 2 am. Our beds were comfy but very low to the floor. Easy check in with codes for the keypad. Nice takeaway snacks, if it wasn't for our noisy neighbors I would have given a better rating

No air conditioning! No ceiling fans. Cheap plastic fans inadequate for cooling the rooms, with broken controls. Holes in most of the window/door screens. Poorly hung interior doors stick badly. Furnished and finished cheaply in every way. The aesthetic of the decor is nice, if inexpensive, but The “breakfast” is insufficient to acquire the term “bed and breakfast”. Incomplete bedding for the futon. Unstaffed. Did not return phone call weeks in advance. Lack of AC should be stated somewhere in the listing or website, it’s a major drawback for summer visitors. It’s a cute and modest property. The lack of AC and the sticking doors were my major issue. If they’re not going to install AC units, then ceiling fans are a must. It is unacceptable that neither were present.

When we got to the suite at 5 pm the inside temp was 32'c, after 6 houra we managed to get the temp down to 27 with 2 crappy fans. We slept with all the window and doors open, which isnt ideal because its above a loud patio and busy road. Beautiful suite but without air conditioning, it was a terrible stay.

The room was clean and the price was okay. There were adequate linen supplies for both of our nights that we stayed there. The restaurant had great food! Very noisy and difficult entry and exit from parking area due to location on main thoroughfare. Also, noisy due to pub and dining facilities located right below the room balcony. This contributed to the limited parking when the restaurant/pub was open. We stayed in the Fletcher room and the bed was very soft and was situated right on the floor; difficult to get in and out of. This facility is advertised as a B & B; very poor quality of supplies for breakfast!

I lucked out in discovering The Fourth Lock BnB. The Fletcher Room was clean and comfortable, with a spacious bathroom, and sliding doors opening onto a deck overlooking scenic Thomas Lake. The shared lounge was stocked with coffee, tea, juice and yogurt, and there were snacks in the room as well. Good wifi. Very reasonably priced and a 10 minute drive to the airport. Lots of services close by like grocery stores, restaurants, gas stations. Jay is a great host, and very responsive if anything is needed.

We arrived to our room at 5pm. I messaged the owner to ask if there was a TV anywhere. I was told No and that i should have fully read the description to save myself money. My husband and i traveled 4hrs to get there to stay before our 6am flight. We wanted to relax and watch TV for the evening, but there was none. Not sure what else people do in the evening when its the middle of winter. The owner was very rude when i told them i would not be staying. Also the person upstairs was walking around with shoes and it was very loud.

Lovely location across from the lake, with beautiful fall colours. Easy to find, with lots of parking. Entrance is on the parking lot level, above the restaurant. Cozy suite, with snacks provided as breakfast option. Communal sitting area and deck. Close to the airport.

Die Unterkunft liegt nur ca. 15 min Fahrzeit vom Flughafen Halifax entfernt und ist daher optimal für eine Übernachtung vor oder nach einem Flug. Obwohl sie direkt an einem Highway liegt (welcher auch zu hören ist), ist die Lage an einem See recht schön. Das Zimmer wie auch das Badezimmer waren geräumig und alles war sehr sauber. Im Haus befindet sich auch ein empfehlenswerter Pub (Öffnungszeiten beachten, ist nicht täglich geöffnet). Das Zimmer sollte besser abgedunkelt werden können. Für eine Unterkunft, die sich "Bed & Breakfast" nennt, war das Frühstück ziemlich dürftig.

Dining
The downstairs restaurant and bar earn strong praise for food and atmosphere, though it is not open every day. Breakfast is a light grab-and-go selection (muffin/fruit/snacks) that several guests found insufficient.

The bed was very, very low to the floor, not quite like a mattress on a floor, but very close. Thia made it challenging aa heck to get in and out of bed. This was sold as a bed and breakfast and so our expectations were thar we woild have a reasonable breakfast. What we got was a small basket left in our room that had a muffin, an apple and several sugar-bssed snacks. This was not close enough to being a breakfast, in our opinion. The sounds from the room above us were easily heard in our room and woke us early at about 7 am, which was long before we wished to be awake. We would not stay again at this facility.

We really love the space. Very clean and the view was really nice. The bed is extremely comfortable. Didnt want to leave. We were a little disappointed we couldnt eat at the restaurant downstairs (open Wednesday-Sunday) as weve came there before and absolutely loved the food n beer. But maybe next time 🙂

The owner is very customer oriented and made us feel welcome. The food at the restaurant was some of the best we've had, especially the blackened haddock and the brisket burger. Kudos to the staff.

This is a cute and unusual little place, conveniently located for Halifax airport. The instructions for self check in are very easy, the room is private and there is a little common living room area overlooking the lake, where you can make coffee at any time. The restaurant downstairs seems to be a very popular spot for locals and I ate a very tasty vegan meal there. I stayed here for two separate one night stays and the first night (a Tuesday), the restaurant was closed, but my second night was a Friday and the noise in the room from the restaurant was quite loud. The noise from the road is also very loud, unless you keep the window closed. There is a very large amount of traffic flowing past here and at times it is very difficult to get in and out of the driveway, which was surprising. I stayed in the Lake William room, which does have a partial view of the lake. The room was clean, but the bed wasn’t super comfortable for me. Overall I would recommend here, especially if you are on a budget, as the price is decent.

The room was clean and the price was okay. There were adequate linen supplies for both of our nights that we stayed there. The restaurant had great food! Very noisy and difficult entry and exit from parking area due to location on main thoroughfare. Also, noisy due to pub and dining facilities located right below the room balcony. This contributed to the limited parking when the restaurant/pub was open. We stayed in the Fletcher room and the bed was very soft and was situated right on the floor; difficult to get in and out of. This facility is advertised as a B & B; very poor quality of supplies for breakfast!

The room was lovely and clean. The bed was very, very low and soggy and the word breakfast. They shouldn’t use that because all they’re giving you is some treats in a basket and a bit of fruit. There’s nothing nourishing about it.

I chose Fourth lock due to the proximity to the airport. I arrived later in the evening, and had no issues checking in with the instructions provided via email. The provided breakfast was basic, but acceptable - muffin, cereal bar, apple.

The room was clean and neat. There was no TV but that's ok. I thought breakfast would be served or ordered instead it was free packed mufffins and apples. It's not good for me because I tried to avoid sugary food. The noise on the top floor awaken us up around 2 AM. Recommendations: Strictly rules, renters to be respectful of thers, especially if it's late at night.

Just a one night stay before we flew back home. Convenient for Halifax Airport (it is only 15 minutes away). Entry is via codes for the main and bedroom doors; we didn’t have any physical contact with the hosts. Breakfast is provided and consists of muffins, cereal bars and fruit and was in the in room fridge. Tea and coffee is from a communal area. I guess most people stay for the airport.

We arrived after midnight but it was very easy to access our room. The space was sufficient but the bed was very low to the ground. Almost had to roll out on to the floor to get out of it.
