About this property

Cozy Seaside Cottage- BEST LOCATION ON THE BAY OF FUNDY SHORE!

Hello and thank you for your interest in The Cottage. This is your perfect getaway to relax and get away from it all. The cottage is for nature lovers, adventurers, day-trippers, readers, artists, and everyone who appreciates quiet and ease. It's the perfect place to step away from the disruption and overwhelm of the busy world. The cottage has fibre optic internet. Read below for the enrichment it DOES provide:

This lovely cottage is perfectly situated in the quiet working fishing village of Parkers Cove, Nova Scotia, approximately 10 minutes by car over the Parker Mountain from historic Annapolis Royal. Watch the spectacular sunsets over the Bay while you rock your cares away on the wrap-around porch. Spot porpoise, seals, and eagles as they occasion the cove and surroundings. Take a nap or read a good book in the hammock.

Refresh yourself as you beachcomb the rocky shoreline for miles. Enjoy local produce, baked goods, and fine crafts from the local farmer's market in Annapolis and then pick out your fish, scallops, and lobster from a local fish market or right off the boat where the salty fisherman's advice is always free, but not always accurate! Treat yourself to a day in town where shops abound and museums and historic sites will steep you in early colonial history.

Breathe in the flower fragrances at the Historic Gardens. Take in a movie or a live music performance or play at the King's Theatre. Take a hike or go kayaking at nearby Kejimkujik National Park.

Whatever suits your style, your pace, the cottage provides a comfortable and friendly 'home' for rest, relaxation, and recreation. Only 2 hours from Halifax, a day trip to other parts of Nova Scotia is very possible from the cottage.

The cottage itself is meticulously clean and tidy, well-appointed to make your stay comfortable and comforting. Feel safe and secure by knowing strictest housekeeping protocols are in place, including disinfecting surfaces and linens between stays. The cottage will be vacant of guests for at least one day minimum between stays. This may require flexibility on reserving your dates.

Your well-behaved dog is welcome at the cottage. Cats are not allowed due to the owner's allergies.

The cottage is considered by many, both locals and visitors, to be THE perfect spot on the Bay of Fundy shore.

It really is the best place to stay with access to the Bay of Fundy. Views are spectacular, and if you’re lucky you might see some herons or even a seal :) Clean, comfortable, and spacious house with all the amenities you need during vacation. Wish we could have stayed longer….guess we’ll have to plan an other trip! Highly recommend this gem of a getaway.

Great location, cottage had everything we needed. However, the bed I was in at the end of the living room by the fireplace was too small (double) for two adults plus mattress was uncomfortable. A cozy queen bed would be better.

Response from VrboOwner on 15 September 2025
Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear you felt the beds were too small for you. The listing does describe the beds as “double” in size. The bedrooms are quite cozy, too cozy for a queen bed to fit and leave room to get around and in and out of bed easily. I am glad you enjoyed your stay otherwise!

Canada Day week

Another super relaxing week on the Bay of Fundy, we were lucky enough to be there for Canada Day thus time and enjoy Annapolis Royal, the original Capital City of the province. Great spot for the dog to explore, to bird watch, super base to take day trips on the motorcycle from and then come home to for sunset.
Perfect sunset!

Thank you for your feedback, Bruce. I always appreciate my guests’ input so that I may make improvements. As seen in the photos, the overall small size of the cottage and limited bathroom space prevents installing a larger shower at this time. Hopefully you had other positive experiences that made up for the inconveniences.

Visit the Annapolis Valley. Stay here!

Very private,cozy bay front property with private access to a cove next to the fishing pier. Despite chilly waters, our kids splashed for hours among the picturesque rocks. The interior is vintage and very thoughtfully adorned with antiques and well appointed for a comfortable stay. We had a minor snafu with an appliance during our stay and Beth was very responsive and attentive, having it addressed quickly even after a holiday weekend. A perfect launching point from which to explore the Annapolis Valley!

We will be back for two weeks next year!

Beth's place is right on the water. It is very quiet, loved watching the tides role in and out. The home is exactly as pictured, well organized and not over crowded with "stuff". Loved the porch-we saw lots of birds, seals and a humpback breech twice! He put on quite a show! The location is great for many day trips. We loved it so much we are hoping to reserve for two weeks next year.

Completely relaxing

My mother travelled from Ontario and we came just 2 hours to spend quality time in a relaxing setting. We enjoyed every moment, from seeing eagles soaring and seals chilling out to the boat action in the marina. Everything we needed was in the cottage, we rarely left the porch and feel rejuvenated and rested after a supposed heatwave then rain storm came through, we barely noticed! Thank you to Beth for creating the perfect bayside retreat with all the amenities and THE best view.

Charming older home, right on the Bay of Fundy, delightful! The bathroom is a little small, so if you’re a big guy, it might be a tight fit. No complaints at all. Great food nearby, check out The Crows Nest. Amazing to watch the tide come and go, and go…and go. Wow. I sat on a boulder out in the Bay at low tide, like a mermaid, and braided my hair. What a sweet memory. Thanks Beth for keeping us posted regarding the Lake fireprior to our arrival. Unfortunately, a month later, it is still burning. Oh Canada!

Rustic cottage by the Bay

Reminded me of an old family cottage - rustic and comfy but a little musty. Our last 2 nights here were quite cold and turning the heat on helped clear the mustiness. No tv or internet (which we knew) and we couldn't even get cell service which bothered my husband, but there was a great paperback collection. And the view over the Bay of Funds was spectacular!!

Thank you for your review. The cottage is indeed an old family cottage and for some, that is part of its charm. It is a getaway for those who wish to “unplug” from the hustle and bustle of life. Older oceanside homes in the area do retain some dampness and turning in the heat does help!

We didn’t want to leave

Besides the stunning location, the well appointed rustic seaside cottage, being able to hang clothes outside and the spellbinding silence, it was transforming. Perfect for reading, painting, rug hooking, sun rising and sunsetting walking thru the longest daylight of the year and wilderness trails . Learned about Canadian birthplace and history through the garden. Our time was wide and long. Will be back!
