Andromeda House sits on 30 beautiful acres, stretching from our waterfront to the top of the Mountain. Perched dramatically above the Annapolis Basin, the views here are truly awe-inspiring—and only get more breathtaking as one explores higher up on the property.
Our path network is maintained for access to the very satisfying “Upper Lookout”. This path continues and you might just find your hosts working on this area. There are also various mountain access roads provide terrific hiking and mountain biking opportunities. Photography, rock hounding, mushroom hunting and star gazing are ideal activities. Birders in particular should be pleased.
The property has been in our family for generations and an old sled path winds through and up it. We are also developing a spring-fed swimming pond this summer.
Currently, we have new fields of sunflowers and wildflowers to attract pollinators—bumble bees, hummingbirds and monarch butterflies are especially abundant here. Wild apple trees abound and there is a stand of old maple trees we will be tapping next spring. Beyond that is a mature Beech and Poplar forest.
We are within walking distance to Victoria Beach, an authentic fishing village nestled at the base of the north mountain and surrounded by the Annapolis Basin, the Digby Gut and the Bay of Fundy.

3 nights at Luxury Shanty near Keji Park N.S.
I was so fortunate to find this listing last minute as being near Keji was one of the reasons for our trip to NS. Patricia met us and showed us the site in person which was very helpful. It was way more luxurious than I expected! A foot pump sink to wash hands! Electric pump for 5 gal water jugs! A jackery type battery to charge things! The lake was right outside the door and there were sitting areas and fire pits as well as a grill. I wish we could have stayed longer as it was a bit rainy and we didn't have time to enjoy the lake. Everything was nicely organized and even in the 40s (fahrenheit) one night we had enough blankets. Would love to come back!
