Swim right off the lower deck, paddle across calm waters in a kayak, or sink into a hanging chair with a book and a view. This is easygoing cottage life at its best. Inside, the cottage is cozy and full of charm, with a unique bunk-bed bedroom featuring two comfortable double beds—perfect for families, couples, or close friends. Bedding is provided and laid out on the bunks (guests make up their own beds), keeping things relaxed and simple. The space blends rustic warmth with modern comfort, creating a welcoming place to recharge after a day outdoors. Direct lake access is one of the highlights here. Morning swims, afternoon paddles, sunset reflections, and dark, star-filled skies come standard. When you’re ready to explore beyond the lake, Yarmouth is just minutes away, offering two stunning ocean beaches—Port Maitland and Mavillette—plus seafood restaurants, a working harbour, and charming coastal villages. For unforgettable stargazing, the Deep Sky Observatory is about 30 minutes away. Good to know: • Each bunk bed is double-sized; bedding and plenty of towels are provided • Two hanging chairs can be set up on the lower deck • Parking at the door • Shower and flushing water are drawn from the lake; cooking and drinking water are delivered • Water shoes are recommended • Plenty of extra bedding and towels in the cottage. We live nearby and are happy to help if needed, while fully respecting your privacy. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Safe ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Front of property](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/900000/890100/890065/5913a6d4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Digby Pines Golf Resort and Spa Digby - Pool - Breakfast included - Spa - Parking included 8.2 Very good 1,076 reviews £98 includes taxes & fees 15 Apr - 16 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-15&endDate=2026-04-16&selected=890065&PinnedHotelID=890065&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Garden](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/5000000/4440000/4434200/4434170/19f7611b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lakelawn B&B Motel Yarmouth - Spa - Pet-friendly - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 8.4 Very good 656 reviews £78 includes taxes & fees 6 Apr - 7 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-06&endDate=2026-04-07&selected=4434170&PinnedHotelID=4434170&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113930000/113922800/113922721/6fed1f31_edited_fadb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Downtown Historic District minutes to waterfront and downtown amenities.
