About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Contemporary ocean style with views, views, views!

This home on the Northumberland Strait is a modern ocean oasis. You will immediately relax as you take in the views from the kitchen/dining/living room surrounded by three walls of windows. You can unwind in comfort with all the amenities you could want. If you have a talent for the culinary side of things, or simply aspire to be a chef in training, you will be right at home in the fully equipped kitchen. Take in the solitude and sunsets on the 500 square foot deck or with a soak in the hot tub.

A dream kitchen - Gas stove with pot filler feature, refrigerator with water and ice machine, wine fridge in the kitchen island, kitchen aid stand mixer, Coffee machine, French press, and coffee beans to grind fresh coffee in the morning. Fully stocked with cookware, baking ware, serving dishes and stemware. You will also find a full selection of oils, vinegars and spices for your cooking adventures - and sugar and milk for your morning java!

- Air conditioned for your comfort
- Wifi
- kayak available for use and boat slip if you come with a boat!

****Yoga teachers take note! The 16 x 30 upper deck with glass railing facing the ocean is ideal for your yoga retreat and can easily accommodate 10 yoga mats. Namaste.

On a clear day and evening you can see PEI in the distance. Arisaig, where lobster fishermen fish out of and where you can buy fresh lobster during lobster season in May and June, is only a 7-minute drive away. During the summer months there is a cafe with delicious baked goods and fresh chowder, as well as the lighthouse where you can buy an ice cream cone and take in the scenery and boats from the wharf or Arisaig beach. Nearby is Arisaig Provincial Park.

This is a very quiet neighbourhood where we are about .5 km off the main road, Highway 337. There are some cottagers nearby but as you can t see them it is easy to feel like you are the only one in the area. We are located a quick 20-minute drive from the town of Antigonish with many shops and services and STFX University.

During lobster fishing season in May and June you can watch fishermen pull in their daily catch from the comfort of the deck and throughout the summer, watch boats, kayaks and sailboats. With a large gas bbq and plenty of seating, the deck is designed for al fresco entertaining. Or maybe after a busy day of discovering all that the Sunrise Trail and surrounding area has to offer, you would prefer to sit back and relax with a glass of wine and take in the sunset this area is famous for - make it extra special and watch it from the hot tub!

You will need a car to get around. Our house is a great home base for day trips.

As we are 20 minutes from the town of Antigonish you will want to stock up on groceries, beverages and anything else you need before you arrive. Then relax!!!

The PEI ferry is approximately an hour away and in the other direction you will reach Cape Breton Island in about an hour as well.

Halifax is approximately a two-hour drive.
At this holiday home, you'll find features such as 1 hot tub. The holiday home offers a kitchen and a balcony.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine and balcony

Short family stay
The house is clean, well stocked and beautifully decorated with lots of space. All amenities were available. The hot tub was clean and enjoyable, with a view of the ocean. Large windows and patio for great ocean views. Quiet location that offered scenic drives and was central to other day trips in the area.

An amazing family trip
We travelled 13 hours to this beautiful cottage on the seafront to spend our family vacation and we’re not disappointed! The house is kept exceptionally clean with everything you could think of or need during your stay. Very quiet area with private passage right down to the waterfront. Very short drive from Antigonish and lots of, quaint restaurants in the area. We definitely recommend this place for anyone!

Sunset Paradise
We absolutely loved staying here… The views were breathtaking! The large deck is where we spent most of our time As the weather was Spectacular! This Cottage had pretty much everything you could possibly need or want. The hot tub and fire pit were thoroughly enjoyed by my family. Russell and Jacqui were super responsive and lovely. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.

Couldn’t be better
What a beautiful home. Breathtaking views, we could’ve easily spent the whole time there just sitting outside watching the weather change, and the TONS of stars you can see at night are something else, too! The beds are very comfortable, and the kitchen has everything you may need. Antigonish is only a 20-30 minute drive away for groceries and a range of places to eat and drink. It’s also nicely located close to many great hiking trails, and a good spot for day trips into Cape Breton. Last, but definitely not least, the hot tub with views of the ocean…I can get used to that!

A most enjoyable vacation
Our first impression was breathtaking! The view from the deck was unbelievable. We were so content to just sit, having coffee and conversation in the morning and later watching the sunset. The house was clean with plenty of amenities. The kitchen was fully stocked. We couldn’t have picked a more inviting space for our family!

Beautiful and eventful stay.
We rented this cottage for a week for some much anticipated rest and relaxation. The property is beautiful, so comfortable and tastefully appointed, with a magnificent view of the Northumberland Straight. It is also close to the very pretty town of Antigonish, and to many beaches, both sand and rocky as well as having it’s own rocky beach to explore. It is a little secluded, which is exactly what we were looking for. And what a great kitchen! However, Hurricane Fiona came along and we were in the area most affected. This is really where we found out how great the hosts were and how well prepared they were for any eventuality. Russell came over and put everything outside away, and spent a lot of time with us to answer all our questions. We had the option of leaving, but decided to stay. The house is very sturdily built to withstand such events. Of course the power went off, but the generator kicked in right away. The night of the hurricane was pretty harrowing but the next morning, even though the winds were still quite strong and the roads littered with fallen trees, Russell was back to see how we were and to make sure everything was working properly. The generator kept us going the rest of our stay, and limited internet connection throughout the province for the rest of the week forced us to unplug. There were a lot of books and games in the house and we were very comfortable. Luckily we had stocked up on food. Jacqui and Russell remained available throughout and responded to texts very quickly. It is not the holiday we were hoping for but it turned out to be great nonetheless. Thanks Jacqui and Russell!

Perfect getaway
This property was a piece of heaven. Very quiet, unbelievable sunsets, every amenity provided. Highly recommend this if you are looking for peace and quiet and a respite. The owners took care to ensure that you have all you need. There is a large kitchen with pots, pans, beautiful dishes and flatware. A propane stove/oven that was a pleasure to cook on. The bathroom includes towels, shampoo and soap. There is a hot tub and 2 kayaks. The owners were very pleasant and easy to contact. The town is approximately 20 minutes away if you should need anything and includes a large grocery store. We took many beautiful photos as the view from the house is stunning. Just know that the road to the house and the driveway are gravel and rather steep. This was a bit of challenge for us city folk and our rental car. But this did not prevent us from having a wonderful vacation. If you thinking of visiting nova scotia this is the perfect home .

2nd time staying at this property
The property is first class and is well maintained and clean. Jacqui makes it very easy to check in and follows up to make sure everything is going as expected. She also let us know that lobster season had just opened and told us where we could buy them right from the fisherman as well as providing us the tools to cook them…family said it was the best lobster they had ever had.

We had a fantastic stay at Jacqui and Russell's home. Plenty of outdoor activities locally, golf, hiking, kayaking in the day then back for a BBQ on the beautiful back deck and soaking out the day in the hot tub before a campfire.
