Oceanfront on the Bay of Fundy

What a wonderful place! Thanks so much for sharing your little piece of heaven with the rest of us :) The house was very homey and comfortable and had everything we needed. The setting is just the most amazing view in the world in a great quiet little town. We traveled 100 miles north east for a day trip and it was so easy to get around up there. We will most surely be back if you will have us :)

What a great first time cottage rental experience!
The short drive into the property off the hwy, is partially secluded so that when you finally reach the cottage, and get your first glimps of the Bay of Fundy it literally takes your breath away!
The owners have made this an awesome space for those that want a quiet retreat that feels like thier own. They have thought of the little touches..., all manner of cooking utensiles and implements, lovely "cottage" rooms each with thier own "theme", towels, BBQ, books, games, plenty of chairs on BOTH ocean view decks...there was really, nothing to want for. The property is well maintained and clean and the owners have left information for the travellers about events in the community,services and areas to explore. We must warn you however about one location in particular (which Doug thankfully gave us a heads up on) - the "evil pie lady" who is a mere 6 km down the Hwy...the pies and jams which are FANTASTIC, can be purchased for $6.00 and up, are good for at least 5 extra "holiday" pounds!!!

For those who truly would like an outdoor, nature filled, oceanside, "decompressing" vacation, this is definately the place. Thank you again to the owners for making this special retreat available to others. It was one of the most relaxing vacations we've ever taken.

To say that we enjoyed our week at this beautiful house is a huge understatement. The house itself was roomy, homey, and immaculate. The kitchen was very well-stocked with pots and pans, plates, cups, cutlery, etc... and so great that it had two large bathrooms - no squabbling! The grounds were so tidy and perfect: we loved the hiking trails around the house and over the bridge. The total and complete privacy, the crash of the waves on the beach, pulling the rocks as the tide went out, just watching the lovely Atlantic... incredibly relaxing. So much so that we chose to forego many of the daytrips we had planned in favour of staying "home."

Our 12-year old son couldn't get enough of climbing all over the beach and rock faces, rockhounding, and checking out the tidepools. Our 14-year old daughter has seldom been happier than she was out there with her Nikon, she took over a thousand images!

The wildlife in the water and around the house was very obliging; we saw bald eagles (3!) every day, many times... at least one seal, 3 otters playing fairly close to shore, countless crabs on the beach and in the tide pools, a jelly, a hummingbird, and countless ducks.

We highly recommend the short drive to St. Andrews - what a beautiful town, and great shopping! We visited Saint John twice, and St. Stephen (mmmm, Ganong chocolate!). Last but not least the Blueberry People down the road - the Blueberry pies are amazing and fresh and warm... we bought jam to bring home - soo yummy. Tastes just like the pies!

The weather was incredible. It was sunny and warm 90% of the time. We had one rainy day (and one stormy night), which we took as an opportunity to visit the Museum and Mall in Saint John. There were a couple of days with foggy mornings... perfect for pictures, though! It was just the right temperature at night - warm enough to leave the windows open, but cool enough to stay under the blankets. It was a great change from the heat and humidity in Ontario.

My husband and I were most surprised at the total and utter peacefulness of our week at this house. It allowed us to truly step outside of our lives for a time, and that is priceless. Would recommend it to anyone. We hope to be lucky enough to book this wonderful vacation home again in the near future!
