Perfect getaway!
Posted Aug. 26, 2024 on HomeAwayThis is a beautiful cozy cottage! We learned to love St Martins and enjoyed the pictures and history books about St Martins very much. The kayaks were perfect for this water loving family and we kayaked and rode the waves near shore at high tide and splashed at low tide. Lovely place to do rock collecting. We collected driftwood at low tide for our campfire on the beach. Kitchen is elaborately stocked with almost any item you would need. We soaked in the quiet mornings, with the sound of the waves rolling in at low tide and the nearby lighthouse foghorn. The nearby general store stocks about anything you would need!

Fantastic!
Posted Jul. 31, 2024 on HomeAwayWhat a great place to stay on the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick! There's really nothing more I can think of that we would have wanted. Well appointed kitchen, two full bathrooms, a closet filled with family games, excellent wifi (we needed to do some work while away), streaming, and a fun collection of DVDs. Very clean, and plenty of space for our family of four to both be together and have our own space. Loved the expansive views of the bay! AC was on when we arrived but we were able to open the windows and turn it off for most of the visit.
The porch facing the bay extends the length of the house. Plenty of seating and a really nice propane grill. Expansive lawn extends down to the tidal estuary (? - I think that's what it would be called) with access to the bay. Safe and easy paddling as the tide comes up and down. And oh those tides! We took some amazing hikes at low tide - stunning rock formations not too far from the house, accessible at low tide. St. Martins sea caves are really wonderful. Great views also from the nearby lighthouse trail.
Cell phone coverage (roaming for us) was strong. The town of St. Martins was super charming with some great seafood, ice cream and a great little sundries store for limited supplies.
Valerie was very communicative as needed, but also allowed us to just be; she was available through the VRBO app (and by phone/text) if we needed her. So glad we stayed here and would recommend to anyone heading to the area!

Great property and great cottage
Posted Jul. 29, 2024 on HomeAwayCottage was everything described, very clean, all the amenities and if needed the host were easy to get a hold of. My son and us went out to the beach almost every day at low tide, only 45 min to St John, St. Martin a couple minutes away, couldn't of asked for a better spot.
First time through VRBO, will definitely do it again, very pleasant experience

Loved it
Posted Sep. 11, 2023 on HomeAwayThis was our first trip to New Brunswick, Canada and we are so very glad we stayed here. The location was perfect and the view of the Bay of Fundy was spectacular. The Fundy Trail is nearby and the Sea Caves and quaint little town too. We also visited the nearby lighthouse in the evenings and walked at low tide from the house to get a view of the Flowerpot that can be seen to the right of the house. We went to the Hutges General Store a few times for groceries and they were so helpful, we enjoyed Sandpiper Gift shop and Shipyard Cafe. Valerie is helpful with any questions that come up. What a wonderful and cozy home to stay in while being close by to the sights. We really loved it and would stay here again if coming to this area. I would recommend this place highly to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing vacation while staying in a lovely home. My husband and I drove to Hampton for golf and we did a day trip to St John city and the Reversing Falls but our favorite part of the trip was at the house and surrounding area. It was definitely worth the trip and makes us want to come back to see more of the New Brunswick coastal areas. My parents especially were amazed by the tides and we found ourselves looking at that quite often to see the difference over time and enjoyed walking the beach looking for rocks. It’s an entrancing place and we are glad we happened to find this listing. Thank you Valerie and Matt for a simply special little getaway in your beautiful home.

Fun in Fundy Bay
Posted Jul. 29, 2023 on HomeAwayPerfect jumping off spot for exploring all that the Fundy Bay has to offer. Fabulous waterfront with a flowerpot formation just a short walk from Shipyard Cottage . Beach is perfect for a picnic. The house is private and full of personal touches by the host. Very special in so many ways. St. Martins has all kinds of interesting places to explore.

Cottage with huge view
Posted Sep. 25, 2022 on HomeAwayWhat a great spot. The view was incredible. The cottage was as expected. Clean and cozy. It had everything we needed. Comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and a great porch to sit and admire the view. Beyond the view you see from the cottage is a great beach. It is only a few careful steps to get there. Water shoes are needed. The property is huge with lots of room
to run around. Overall we had a great time. Unfortunately we had to leave early due to hurricane Fiona on its way. I hope the cottage and property withstood the brunt of the storm. We would definitely recommend this cottage.
