About this property

The Boathouse overlooking Green's Point Lighthouse and Passamaquoddy Bay


The Boathouse is nestled on Green's Point Road, just a short three-minute walk from the Green's Point Lighthouse and Museum in L'Etete. Once a traditional boathouse, it has been carefully transformed into a cozy and inviting retreat. Sheltered from the wind yet offering panoramic views of the wild, untamed landscapes, we hope our guests find peace and comfort in this unique location. From the deck, enjoy the calming sounds of seals, the rhythmic crash of the waves, and the haunting call of the foghorn as the mist rolls in. Bring your binoculars to spot local wildlife, including migrating birds, whales, and seals. Conveniently located near amenities, shops, golf courses, whale watching, fishing, boating, and a variety of other activities.

About the host

Hosted by Maureen Cowan

Host profile image
As a retired nurse I'm a parent to three children, a grandparent to three boys, and a caregiver to two cats and a dog. My husband, a retired biologist and professor, are spending our retirement years renovating an 1863c fisherman's cottage. At our daughter's suggestion, we converted the old boathouse on our property into a cozy short-term rental.

Why they chose this property

Green's Point Lighthouse and Museum stands as a maritime gem, rich in history and resilience against nature's fiercest elements. This area serves as a haven for diverse wildlife, amidst unpredictable weather patterns, the Bay of Fundy high tides fosters an intimate connection with the raw beauty of nature.

Growing up with family ties to the sea, I harbored a childhood dream of coastal living, immersed in the rhythm of the tides, the spectacle of storms, the moan of the fog horn, and the serenity of sunsets. The cries of seagulls, the annual migration of birds and whales, and the occasional visits from deer and other wild creatures were all part of the enchanting tapestry of life by the ocean.

What makes this property unique

Tucked near the iconic Green's Point Lighthouse at L'Etete Passage, where the Bay of Fundy meets Passamaquoddy Bay, our location is surrounded by rugged coastlines, abundant wildlife, and the captivating ebb and flow of the Bay of Fundy tides. Our restored 'Boathouse' has been transformed into a bright, welcoming guest cottage, seamlessly blending modern comforts with timeless charm.

Perfectly situated, The Boathouse is the ideal starting point for countless memorable day trips. Discover the nearby cities, towns, and harbors of New Brunswick, or cross the border into Maine at St. Stephen. The picturesque town of Saint Andrews by the Sea invites you to explore its rich history and connections to figures like Lord Beaverbrook and Sir William Van Horne. Nearby islands, including Deer Island and Campobello, offer fascinating excursions, with Campobello being home to President Roosevelt's historic summer retreat. Just ten minutes away, the working-class town of Saint George, where the fishing industry thrives, provides easy access to supplies, fresh seafood, and laundry services.

After a day of exploration, return to The Boathouse and unwind on the deck, taking in the stunning views—a perfect way to end your day of discovery.
