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.

My son and us went out to the beach almost every day at low tide, only 45 min to St John, St. Martin a couple minutes away, couldn't of asked for a better spot. First time through VRBO, will definitely do it again, very pleasant experience ##### Gord R. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JoAnna K. Aug 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect getaway! This is a beautiful cozy cottage! We learned to love St Martins and enjoyed the pictures and history books about St Martins very much. The kayaks were perfect for this water loving family and we kayaked and rode the waves near shore at high tide and splashed at low tide. Lovely place to do rock collecting. We collected driftwood at low tide for our campfire on the beach. Kitchen is elaborately stocked with almost any item you would need. We soaked in the quiet mornings, with the sound of the waves rolling in at low tide and the nearby lighthouse foghorn. The nearby general store stocks about anything you would need! ##### JoAnna K. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachel P. Sep 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Loved it This was our first trip to New Brunswick, Canada and we are so very glad we stayed here. The location was perfect and the view of the Bay of Fundy was spectacular. The Fundy Trail is nearby and the Sea Caves and quaint little town too. We also visited the nearby lighthouse in the evenings and walked at low tide from the house to get a view of the Flowerpot that can be seen to the right of the house. We went to the Hutges General Store a few times for groceries and they were so helpful, we enjoyed Sandpiper Gift shop and Shipyard Cafe. Valerie is helpful with any questions that come up. What a wonderful and cozy home to stay in while being close by to the sights. We really loved it and would stay here again if coming to this area. I would recommend this place highly to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing vacation while staying in a lovely home. My husband and I drove to Hampton for golf and we did a day trip to St John city and the Reversing Falls but our favorite part of the trip was at the house and surrounding area. It was definitely worth the trip and makes us want to come back to see more of the New Brunswick coastal areas. My parents especially were amazed by the tides and we found ourselves looking at that quite often to see the difference over time and enjoyed walking the beach looking for rocks. It’s an entrancing place and we are glad we happened to find this listing. Thank you Valerie and Matt for a simply special little getaway in your beautiful home. ##### Rachel P. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher K. Jul 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic! What a great place to stay on the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick! There's really nothing more I can think of that we would have wanted. Well appointed kitchen, two full bathrooms, a closet filled with family games, excellent wifi (we needed to do some work while away), streaming, and a fun collection of DVDs. Very clean, and plenty of space for our family of four to both be together and have our own space. Loved the expansive views of the bay! AC was on when we arrived but we were able to open the windows and turn it off for most of the visit. The porch facing the bay extends the length of the house. Plenty of seating and a really nice propane grill. Expansive lawn extends down to the tidal estuary (? - I think that's what it would be called) with access to the bay. Safe and easy paddling as the tide comes up and down. And oh those tides! We took some amazing hikes at low tide - stunning rock formations not too far from the house, accessible at low tide. St. Martins sea caves are really wonderful. Great views also from the nearby lighthouse trail. Cell phone coverage (roaming for us) was strong. The town of St. Martins was super charming with some great seafood, ice cream and a great little sundries store for limited supplies. Valerie was very communicative as needed, but also allowed us to just be; she was available through the VRBO app (and by phone/text) if we needed her. So glad we stayed here and would recommend to anyone heading to the area! ##### Christopher K. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paulie C.

The owners are incredibly responsive to renters' concerns and the house is spotless. There are lots of places to visit in the St Martins area for hiking or more gentle walking. Highly recommended! ##### David H. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samuel & Elisabeth K.

Spacious yard and direct access to a quiet waterfront…. Enjoyed the kayaks, time on the beach, watching the incredible Fundy tides, just a short drive to Fundy Trail Parkway…. Highly recommend ##### Samuel & Elisabeth K. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shani A.

The location was perfect - peaceful, private, but still close to so many attractions and restaurants. Being so close to the Bay of Fundy, and experiencing the tides every day was very special. We even saw a seal one day while kayaking right from the cottage! The cottage itself had everything we needed and Valerie was a great host, always responding promptly. Thank you for everything! ##### Shani A.

Aug 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The location and proximity to the water is absolutely unbeatable! The back porch overlooking the Bay of Fundy was idyllic! The kitchen was well-appointed and had everything we needed for meal prep and cooking. The size and seating of the kitchen table was great — perfect for our family of 6\. Another favourite spot for meals was the bistro table on the back porch. Lots of options. The overall cleanliness was very good. The beds were comfortable; variety of pillow firmnesses to choose from was a nice amenity. Provision of shampoo and soap was great as well. While the quality of the furniture in the living room was excellent, it did not accommodate our family of 6 (there was only seating for 3). The foam cushions on the hearth were not really a great substitute for living room sitting. An L-Shaped couch that can seat more people would be a great improvement to consider as well as some throw blankets and cushions. Overall, a really lovely property! ##### Rebecca T.

Fabulous waterfront with a flowerpot formation just a short walk from Shipyard Cottage . Beach is perfect for a picnic. The house is private and full of personal touches by the host. Very special in so many ways. St. Martins has all kinds of interesting places to explore. ##### Darby H.

The only thing I wish I had known would be to being water shoes to explore the one of a kind ocean floor during low tide. I have never experienced anything like this place and likely won't again. We feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to experience this place ##### laura h.
