The Perfect Cottage on the Water
My sisters, Mom and I had a 2 night stay at Tantramar Cottage. It was perfection - a cozy fire, a lovely view, great access to everything. But no need to go anywhere - loads of beautiful outdoor deck space and great sitting areas inside. Cozy furnishings and so many special touches. We will be back.

December 2023 visit.
Could not get much better. Helped pull the family together for a break and a bit of a reset. Fireplace was perfect and appreciated that there was properly seasoned real firewood to burn! A really relaxing getaway with the perfect location. Thanks!
