| We've been so fortunate to enjoy this cottage, it has all the comforts of home & so much more, every single thing you could need/want .. Listening to waves lapping the shore, looking out bedroom windows to see big dipper front & center, gorgeous sunrise/sunset, late night fires, peaceful, in short, nothing better for mind, body or soul. We will miss it.

| This was a wonderful cottage for a multi-generational family vacation. Comfortable beds and couches, plenty of space for lounging, lots of flexibility for sleeping arrangements, especially with the bunkie. The screened-in porch allowed us to enjoy "outside" without worrying about rain or insects -- the blankets and lounger chairs were lovely additions to this space.
Well-stocked and thoughtfully laid-out kitchen - we had everything we needed to make fantastic family meals.
Beautiful views out every window - a treat to see the ocean right from bed. Quiet enough to hear the surf and birds. Loved seeing the fishing boats, sailboats, great blue herons, eagles. Starry skies thrilled the youngest city-dwellers; breath-taking sunrises and sunsets. Good beach for exploring; nearby provincial beaches perfect for swimming.
Outside shower was a delight to use; extra toilet and sink made it easy to accommodate our large group. Lawn in front was a great space to play outside games, firepit was perfect for marshmallow time. Well-stocked barbecue supplies, lots of towels, water, toiletries on hand.
The added touch of a welcome gift featuring local wine and food products sealed the deal - this was a magical place, a chance to show the visiting family members from out west what Maritimes hospitality is all about.
We hope this is the first of many stays. After a very difficult year+ and not seeing each other since 2019, this get-together was incredibly meaningful for all of us.

| This cottage is just lovely! I was super impressed with all of the organization and Lorraine has customer service down to a tee!
Our grandsons (7 and 9) just loved it and were so excited about the beach, dvds and games. The cottage is private and the lane was very quiet during the week. Wonderful view right on the water which was very warm as we had a great summer. The screened in porch was a great spot for reading and hosting a few friends who came to visit on various days. We were grateful for the Atlantic bubble as dear friends from Shediac came for supper. Tatamagouche is nearby with all of the amenities one may need. We were so happy that we booked another week next year.
