Private Retreat on the world famous Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia

Get up close to nature and spectacular views at this stylish, new oceanfront home. "Tidal Terrace" stands tall, overlooking the rocky shore and the world's highest tides. Surrounded by waterfalls, hiking trails, bald eagles and stunning sunrises and sunsets, there's so much to discover. This four season, contemporary styled home is located just a short drive to local wineries, craft breweries, golf courses, and some of the best restaurants in Nova Scotia.

This vacation home was custom designed and built in 2023. The main floor is bright with a soaring wall of windows to maximize the breathtaking views. The open concept modern kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances. The large island is great for gathering and connecting with family and friends. The smart TV is installed on a swivel so it can be viewed from the kitchen island or the living room. Warm up and relax by the European designed wood stove.

The second floor has a primary bedroom with a king size bed, floor to ceiling windows, and room darkening curtains. Wake up to the sound of the lapping waves and a view like you're on the water.
The main bathroom has a rainfall shower with body jets and a Japanese inspired toilet/bidet.

The third floor is the loft which can be converted to a bedroom with a king size bed or 2 twin beds. This space has two 9 foot sliding doors that walk out onto the rooftop terrace complete with 4 luxurious lounge chairs. There is also a small office space on the third floor.

Splendor on the Bay of Fundy

The house is simply magnificent, and the sweeping views of the Bay of Fundy from the back decks are breathtaking. Wanda and Dwayne were excellent hosts, providing excellent recommendations to local spots and showing a keen attention to detail to make travelers feel welcome and at home. We would re-book in a heartbeat.

Beautifully appointed beach house

The house is beautiful-the setting is perfect. My husband and I were there for a weekend. We enjoyed hiking nearby and trips into nearby towns. It is a great place to unwind. Views of the water from just about every room are spectacular. The house has all the amenities needed. Wanda was very quick to respond to any questions. We loved our stay!

What a wonderful few days we had at this gorgeous home. No details have been spared in this vacation home. If you want a quiet, private location with show-stopping views this is home for you. We explored the ocean floor at low tide and enjoyed the BBQ & bonfire pit. Get your groceries before you arrive and no need to leave! Wanda was an excellent host and the house was spotless and had everything you’d hope for.

If there were more than 5 stars we would give it more! We had an absolutely wonderful stay celebrating my father’s birthday, and we would not hesitate to return. From the day we booked, Wanda’s communication was exceptional. So friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. The property itself is breathtaking. Perched atop the rocks with completely unobstructed views of the bay. The setting is truly spectacular. Whether enjoying your morning coffee or watching the sunset, the views never get old. The home was spotless! It is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully equipped with everything we could possibly need. It’s clear that no detail was overlooked. From the fully stocked kitchen to the impressive high-tech features throughout the home - every aspect was designed with comfort and convenience in mind. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep after each day of exploring wine country. One of our favorite features was the beautiful hot tub. We spent many nights and mornings soaking while gazing out across the bay. This is a very special property and Wanda has created an outstanding guest experience. Highly recommended and we will return
