Wake Up to the World’s Highest Tides – A Private Fundy Beachfront Retreat
Step off the lawn and watch the highest tides in the world rise and fall twice daily, an ever-changing oceanfront view that’s yours alone.
St. Martins Shipyard Cottage is a luxury three-bedroom beachfront retreat that combines coastal charm with every modern comfort.
HIGHLIGHTS - Private beach access right from the lawn - World’s highest tides at your doorstep - Panoramic ocean views from every main room - Cozy wood-burning fireplaces and a covered deck for morning coffee and evening BBQ’s - Minutes to the Fundy Trail Parkway, St. Martins Sea Caves and local dining - Spacious layout with 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms - Modern comfort: Central AC, high-speed Wi-Fi, Smart TV, a jetted tub, full kitchen and laundry - Four guest kayaks & life jackets for all ages - Peaceful privacy - your own oceanfront retreat, not shared with anyone
THE COTTAGE EXPERIENCE Shipyard Cottage offers the best of both worlds: a cozy, comfortable home with everything you need, paired with the kind of natural setting most visitors only dream about. Gather around the dining table, or curl up in the comfy living room chairs.
The covered deck, furnished for comfort, is a cozy outdoor living room where salt air drifts in, songbirds add their sweet soundtrack, and wildlife often makes surprise appearances against the backdrop of sweeping Fundy ocean views. It’s the perfect spot to gather for a family barbecue and savour moments that become cherished lifelong memories.
BEDROOMS & LAYOUT The main floor includes a bright and open living space, a well-equipped kitchen, and dining area overlooking the ocean. Three restful bedrooms and two bathrooms make it easy for families or friends to spread out in comfort. The jetted tub in the upstairs bath adds a touch of luxury, while modern furnishings and fresh linens create a warm, welcoming home.
OUTDOORS & SURROUNDINGS Step outside and you’re immediately in the heart of Fundy’s beauty. Launch the kayaks, beach-comb for shells and driftwood, or walk on the ocean floor when the tide recedes. Discover a natural flowerpot rock formation just along the shore, the same kind made famous at Hopewell Cape, but found right here outside your door.
A short drive takes you to the iconic St. Martins Sea Caves, the entrance to the world-famous Fundy Trail Parkway, and local restaurants serving fresh seafood straight off the boats.
RAINY DAY COMFORTS Inside, you’ll find both cable and Smart TV (with access to your streaming accounts), plus a family games cabinet and DVD library, perfect for cozy downtime. These thoughtful touches make stormy Fundy evenings just as memorable as sunny days on the beach.
A PLACE WITH A STORY In the 1800s, this very property was the site of the Capt. John Marr and T.H. Bradshaw shipyards, where wooden sailing vessels were built and launched. Sharp-eyed explorers can still find old ship spikes or remnants of the age of sail, reminders that this serene retreat once rang with the sound of shipbuilders’ hammers.
WHY GUESTS LOVE IT Guests call the views unforgettable, the setting peaceful, and the private beach unmatched; the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.
