An Idyllic Retreat by the Sea
We travelled with another couple to spend a week last June in this beautiful spot. The ferry from Portland was a ‘mini cruise’ and lots of fun. Landing at Yarmouth, it was a short hour’s drive to Orchard Point. The house, itself, is pristinely clean, and well decorated with a warm, antique feel, but very modern appointments throughout. With two large sunny bedrooms, and two bathrooms, the house is perfect for traveling with friends, couples, or a family with children. The house is situated at the edge of the ocean, on a point with water views from all sides. Sunrise and sunset were spectacular, and even the one rainy day we had was special. You can do as much, or as little as you’d like during a stay. The location is perfect for day trips to Nova Scotia Highlights, including The Bay of Fundy, Halifax, Digby, Gran Pre National Historic Site, numerous Vineyards (We had lunch at Luckett Vineyard overlooking the Bay of Fundy, where everyone gets to make a free call to anywhere from the old red phone booth —spectacular!), and of course, the famed ‘Lighthouse Route’. Only minutes away is the sweet and well preserved loyalist town of Shelburne, with its Saturday farmer’s market, picturesque docks and iconic yellow Dories, still made by master dory makers. We enjoyed nice meals at a number of restaurants in Shelburne, along with a lovely harbor cruise, where we were treated to a steak and lobster dinner while touring the coast. On a few days, we just enjoyed spending the day at the house — kayaking, beach combing, grilling, and of course, having drinks by the giant fire pit at night. Overall, my husband and I agree that our time at Orchard Point was one of the happiest and most relaxing weeks we’ve had in years. A very special place that we hope to get back to soon!
We had a wonderful time here and loved Sea Star Cottage. We hope to return again.
We really enjoyed our stay at Bright View Cottage. The house meets all the criteria, the common area is perfect. It is very well located. The view is beautiful. Thanks!

Roseway BeachDescriptionRoseway Beach is a beautiful, often deserted, white sandy beach. At least a kilometer in length, the beach is perfect for a quiet walk. A river meets the ocean at this beach creating an ever-changing landscape. The freshwater river warms up quickly during the heat of the day and is perfect for paddling and swimming. The beach is about 25 minutes from Shelburne.AddressRoseway, NSGoogle Map |
