The Hideaway at Baxters Harbour is a tranquil haven truly like no other, nestled in the heart of Baxters Harbour and its 55’ oceanfront waterfall. This enchanting retreat is tailor-made to rekindle your connection with both nature and your partner, promising a unique, unforgettable experience. Promising solitude within reach of dining and wineries, local hikes, and evenings of sunsets, tides, and starry nights. “I didn’t know a place like this could exist”; “It’s so much better than the pictures”; and “It’s like a playground for grownups”, are just some of the statements shared by our guests. Both indoors and out, this property is bound to leave a lasting impression. The outdoor setting is one of a kind, perched over a harbour waterfall, complete with a glassed sauna overlooking it all. It’s not uncommon to see eagles soaring at eye level, or breaching sea creatures beyond the harbour entrance. The steady rhythms of the tides create an ever-changing snapshot of the coast, which some guests declare as their favourite part of living in the space. The outdoors features a patio, outdoor kitchen, pizza oven, fire pit and sauna with outdoor shower. Between the seabird calls, the rush of the waterfall, or the lapping of the waves, the background soundtrack only adds to the ambience. Both sunrise and sunset play out spectacularly, with perfectly dark skies, while some lucky guests get the northern lights directly on the horizon out front. The house has been transformed from the charming coastal lore of a bootlegger’s harbour home to a couples retreat designed to harmonize with its natural surroundings. The open-concept living space features floor-to-ceiling windows, providing a seamless connection between the interior and the outdoors. Priority was granted to a spa-like bathroom, with a glass shower for two. While the house is small, it has been opened up from 4 original rooms to one large living space, transforming into the Queen sized bedroom at night with a hideaway murphy bed. It works much like a studio apartment, with epic views. The site is not shared with other houses and guests will enjoy complete use of the property to themselves. Access to the shore is a few steps further into the harbour, at the public wharf access. It’s time to wow your favourite person with a romantic getaway!Guest Access This home, sauna, and property are for the full enjoyment of the guests, and guests alone. Any areas of the yard which are maintained (grass cut, etc.) are viable for guest use. Those areas which are not maintained designate areas that guests are not safe to enjoy. Mostly those are areas near the cliff edge, on the lower terrace, and the rear of the property. Access to the shore is a few steps further into the harbour, at the public wharf access. This residence is positioned with a picturesque view of Baxters Harbour, which occasionally draws tourists to its shores. While staying on the premises, guests should be mindful that they may be visible to passersby, and thus, all interactions and conduct should be discreet. To maintain privacy, it's advisable to keep curtains closed when necessary, and guests must wear appropriate clothing at all times while in the sauna. We make our home available to others when we're not occupying it. It's not primarily our vacation rental; instead, it holds a special significance to us. We designed and built it ourselves, and it is our forever home which we are temporarily offering out. We kindly ask that you treat it as you would your own. Only about a dozen houses are located in the harbour, and we cherish our connections within this community. Please represent our home as outstanding ambassadors. Instructions on using the appliances, including the pizza oven and sauna, as well as guidelines for operating the house, will be provided to you. Please acquaint yourself with these instructions if you decide to utilize these features. To make use of the small footprint, the Queen bed offered is a Murphy bed, and the living area converts into a sleeping space at night. The large glass walls become covered with curtains to ensure privacy. Fibre internet is provided at the house, however there is no TV. If you need screen time, please remember to bring your own device. The harbour provides opportunities to bring kayaks and stand-up paddle boards, enjoy picnics on the ocean floor, hike along the shoreline to Black Hole Harbour, venture to the base of the waterfall, and capture numerous iconic photographic moments. The surrounding region is renowned for lobster, hiking, fishing, waterfalls, wineries, artistic culture, and a plethora of exceptional dining establishments. Guests wishing to honour a special occasion or wedding proposal may reach out in advance for guidance on those preparations. We would love to help you coordinate such excitement. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Pool/Spa - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Wheelchair-accessible parking and van parking available ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Books ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 1 accessible parking space - No elevator - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Wheelchair-accessible van parking - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - Near the bay - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Composting - Comprehensive recycling policy - Double-glazed windows - Garden - No plastic coffee stirrers - No plastic drinking straws - No plastic soft drink bottles - No plastic water bottles - Property does not allow children - Reusable cups - Reusable tableware - Unit size: 490 square feet ## Similar properties ![2 bedrooms, desk, free WiFi, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113560000/113559100/113559002/8e0b5887.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private Retreat on the world famous Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia Canning - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-02&endDate=2025-11-03&selected=113559002&PinnedHotelID=113559002&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/117000000/116130000/116127600/116127543/695d6e30.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private Oceanfront Cottage in Scots Bay – Your Quiet Escape on the Bay of Fundy Canning - Ocean view - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-02&endDate=2025-11-03&selected=116127543&PinnedHotelID=116127543&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95820000/95818700/95818616/b8466fa0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### On the Edge of Fundy Private Cottage Getaway Centreville - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 27 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-02&endDate=2025-11-03&selected=95818616&PinnedHotelID=95818616&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91770000/91768100/91768001/34b70c9e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fundy views from the Crow's Nest in Baxter's Harbour Canning - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 24 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-02&endDate=2025-11-03&selected=91768001&PinnedHotelID=91768001&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102760000/102757600/102757596/w1809h998x0y0-d2a13484.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### ☆The Unofficial B&B of Sir Winston Churchill☆ Canning - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 20 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-02&endDate=2025-11-03&selected=102757596&PinnedHotelID=102757596&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/68000000/67420000/67417900/67417820/e4cc2cf8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Dog friendly apartment with full kitchen on the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia.
