THE COTTAGE EXPERIENCE
Shipyard Cottage offers the best of both worlds: a cozy, comfortable home with everything you need, paired with the kind of natural setting most visitors only dream about. Gather around the dining table, or curl up in the comfy living room chairs.
The covered deck, furnished for comfort, is a cozy outdoor living room where salt air drifts in, songbirds add their sweet soundtrack, and wildlife often makes surprise appearances against the backdrop of sweeping Fundy ocean views. It’s the perfect spot to gather for a family barbecue and savour moments that become cherished lifelong memories.
BEDROOMS & LAYOUT
The main floor includes a bright and open living space, a well-equipped kitchen, and dining area overlooking the ocean. Three restful bedrooms and two bathrooms make it easy for families or friends to spread out in comfort. The jetted tub in the upstairs bath adds a touch of luxury, while modern furnishings and fresh linens create a warm, welcoming home.
OUTDOORS & SURROUNDINGS
Step outside and you’re immediately in the heart of Fundy’s beauty. Launch the kayaks, beach-comb for shells and driftwood, or walk on the ocean floor when the tide recedes. Discover a natural flowerpot rock formation just along the shore, the same kind made famous at Hopewell Cape, but found right here outside your door.
A short drive takes you to the iconic St. Martins Sea Caves, the entrance to the world-famous Fundy Trail Parkway, and local restaurants serving fresh seafood straight off the boats.
RAINY DAY COMFORTS
Inside, you’ll find both cable and Smart TV (with access to your streaming accounts), plus a family games cabinet and DVD library, perfect for cozy downtime. These thoughtful touches make stormy Fundy evenings just as memorable as sunny days on the beach.
A PLACE WITH A STORY
In the 1800s, this very property was the site of the Capt. John Marr and T.H. Bradshaw shipyards, where wooden sailing vessels were built and launched. Sharp-eyed explorers can still find old ship spikes or remnants of the age of sail, reminders that this serene retreat once rang with the sound of shipbuilders’ hammers.
WHY GUESTS LOVE IT
Guests call the views unforgettable, the setting peaceful, and the private beach unmatched; the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.

Summary: The location and proximity to the water is absolutely unbeatable! The back porch overlooking the Bay of Fundy was idyllic! The kitchen was well-appointed and had everything we needed for meal prep and cooking. The size and seating of the kitchen table was great — perfect for our family of 6. Another favourite spot for meals was the bistro table on the back porch. Lots of options. The overall cleanliness was very good. The beds were comfortable; variety of pillow firmnesses to choose from was a nice amenity. Provision of shampoo and soap was great as well. While the quality of the furniture in the living room was excellent, it did not accommodate our family of 6 (there was only seating for 3). The foam cushions on the hearth were not really a great substitute for living room sitting. An L-Shaped couch that can seat more people would be a great improvement to consider as well as some throw blankets and cushions. Overall, a really lovely property!
