About this property

Cottage Cove Oceanfront Retreat

Experience the beauty of the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia by bringing your boat and fishing rods to explore the lovely seaside. If you're more inclined to relax, you can retreat to the gazebo, enjoy swimming, and go fishing at this unique and family-friendly cove.

Cottage Cove is conveniently located near two stunning beaches. Clam Harbour Beach, known for its sand castle competition, and Martinique Beach, famous for its white sandy shores.

The upper level of the cottage features an open concept kitchen and dining area with half-cathedral ceilings and access to a wrap-around deck which overlooks the water from every angle. The master bedroom on this level offers an en suite, a queen bed, dresser, and a large shower as well as a deep jacuzzi tub.

On the bottom floor, you'll find the second and third bedrooms. One bedroom includes a double bed and dresser, while the other has two twin beds and a dresser. This level also features a second bathroom, a living room, and a laundry room.

The property is absolutely lovely and exceptionally well equipped. The beds were comfy and the house very clean. Amenities are a stone’s throw away (groceries, liquor store, hardware), which is always handy for that last minute need. The host is extremely responsive and kind. Would love to stay again!

Enjoying Head of Jeddore

Beautiful location with a stunning view to enjoy. Cottage was spacious, very well kept and the owner made sure we had all we would need from coffee/tea, dishwasher/washer pods to ice packs in the freezer. All your needs are met for a very enjoyable time here.

Outstanding experience

Scott’s place was the perfect anchor for us to explore so much of Nova Scotia. We are all from California and there was so much to see and appreciate. The country was amazing, And Scott was the best host possible. We asked him about firewood, and he showed up that day and chopped some more for us. The house couldn’t have been more welcoming, functional or beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful time.

Fantastic family vacation

The house is located right on the water with awesome views. Property was very clean and Scott was great to deal with. Kayaks are an extra bonus which our family has a blast using them. The porch area outside is great for some relaxation and board games with the family. Would definitely recommend the rental property and will look forward to stay there again in the future.

A perfect little getaway. The property was the cleanest I've even seen. The added little things show that the property owner cares and wants you to be able to just sit back and relax without having to worry. We will return next year for sure!

Exactly as described!

We really enjoyed our stay at Cottage Cove! The view was amazing as was the deck and gazebo to enjoy it from! The house was fresh, super clean and equipped with everything we needed! We launched our own boat and enjoyed exploring the coves! Due to the weather we didn’t get to enjoy the fire pit or the kayaks but we made good use of the TV and all of the movies! We had 3 kids under 8 who enjoyed the large lawn and the big rocks! Thank you so much for sharing your little piece of paradise with us!
