Coastal Vista - Year-Round Beachfront Getaway on the Gulf of St. Lawrence

Allow yourself to slow down at our peaceful waterfront retreat on the Gulf of St. Lawrence — a place designed for comfort, calm, and meaningful time together by the water.

Set in a region rich in Indigenous heritage and Acadian traditions, the cottage offers a relaxed coastal escape where days unfold at a gentler pace. With the beach just steps from the yard and wide-open shoreline views shaped by the tides, it’s easy to unplug, reconnect, and enjoy simple pleasures — whether you’re gathering with family, meeting friends for a quiet reunion, or planning a romantic getaway.

We’ve thoughtfully designed the home based on our experience in hospitality and travel, focusing on ease, cleanliness, and practical comfort. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming rather than flashy, making it easy to settle in and feel at home.

The Space

Your backyard is the beach. The property sits on a full-sized waterfront lot with ever-changing shoreline views throughout the year. Shallow coastal waters (approximately 4 feet deep) are well suited to wading and relaxed exploration — water shoes are recommended. Tides shift daily, revealing shells, rocks, and driftwood and creating a constantly changing natural landscape.
The home includes three comfortable bedrooms plus a den with a queen pull-out sofa, offering flexibility and privacy for families and groups.

Multiple living areas and sunrooms provide space to read, play board games, share meals, or simply enjoy the view.

A small boat slide provides water access. The area is ideal for kayaking, fishing, and exploring at a relaxed pace using non-motorized watercraft only.

Water & Utilities

The cottage uses a private well and water softener, which is common in coastal New Brunswick to protect plumbing and appliances. The water is safe and chlorine-free. Guests may notice a slightly different feel in the shower due to naturally occurring minerals and the softening process. Filtered drinking water is provided at the kitchen sink.

Outdoor Living

Outdoor time is a key part of the experience — from shoreline walks and sunset views to relaxed evenings outdoors. A fire pit is available when conditions permit; guests are asked to check NB Fire Watch for current fire restrictions and to fully extinguish fires after use.

Routine outdoor maintenance, such as lawn care or mosquito treatments, may occasionally take place during guest stays. While we aim to schedule this between bookings, timing can vary due to weather and other factors. Any work is brief and limited to outdoor areas.

Kitchen & Dining

The kitchen is well equipped for shared meals and family cooking. Wine glasses and cookware are hand-wash only. Trivets and placemats are provided to help protect surfaces.

Heating & Comfort

The home is equipped with mini-split heat pumps for efficient heating and cooling. A pellet stove provides additional warmth and ambiance during cooler months. Clear instructions are provided for safe and comfortable use.

Pets

Pets may be considered with prior approval. We generally welcome non-shedding or lightly shedding dogs under 25 kg (55 lb). Each request is reviewed individually. Pets must be declared at booking, be up to date on flea and tick prevention, and may not be left unattended unless safely crated. For pet stays, some area rugs may be removed at the host’s discretion.

Safety & Expectations

Guests are asked to remain within clearly defined property boundaries and to respect neighbouring properties and privacy. Use of the shoreline and water access is at guests’ own risk, and life jackets should be worn where appropriate.

Our goal is simple: to offer an effortless, well-cared-for coastal retreat where guests can relax, reconnect, and enjoy time together.
