The Lobster Boat Inn is located on a hill in the woods in Antigonish, Nova Scotia. It sits high and dry with no water in sight! You get the entire property to yourself. No barking dogs, loud music or annoying neighbours. No crowded RV or tent city here.
Contact your host to adjust min. nights required. (standard 2 - 1 possible for a specific requested date.) Contact host David in advance.
We provide visitors with a rustic, unique, "glamping" experience. The Boat is filled with lobster-themed items that will send you on an imaginary lobster pot-pulling adventure.
Cook on the back deck as you drink in nature, then eat in an original ship's wheelhouse or outside at the picnic table by the fire pit. Our amenities also include: fishing rods, comfy beds, fresh drinking-water, refrigerator, 2 bathroom facilities, a hot outdoor shower, walking trails, microwave, and AC. The boat can sleep 5 guests, but a private raised glamping tent is provided for overflow if required.
Off property you will find: auto race watching (at Riverside raceway), hiking, biking, ocean fishing, and shopping activities. Downtown Antigonish is but a ten minute drive. The famous Highland Games comes in July along with the Lobster Festival in New Glasgow. The Eastern Nova Scotia Exhibition runs from Aug 27-31.
Want to swim at St. FX University swimming pool? Day passes are sold at the university. Of course ocean swimming at one of the 19, nearby, beautiful area beaches is totally free for all, so get wet and splash in the sea!
Sure, you can sit inside and watch one of our many DVD movies, but instead why not : explore nature, take a walk through the woods, talk to your wife, or friend, play with the kids, or throw a ball for your dog? If you want to relax, visit the golf course in town or just chill on the comfy deck. Do you want to ride, your bike on mountain trails, fish, visit a lighthouse or a petting farm? We have these close by too!
Wide-open highways make for smooth, fast, travel to places like New Glasgow, Pictou, The Cabot Trail or the ferry to PEI. (now 1/2 price) All are within an hour's drive.
At night, relax around the fire-pit after a long day of fun. Then have a sleep "extraordinaire” on board! (No waves to worry about with this boat!)

Weekend Trip to Peace and Friendship
Ruth's place is amazing. If you want a quiet and private place with the most beautiful view, this is it. I loved it. The outdoor shower is amazing (and big enough for two), plus the screened in porch so no bugs! Lots of bunnies, sea gulls, little bitty squirrels with attitude that'll make you laugh.

Magical. Quiet. Private. Beautiful. I totally enjoyed my getaway to Ruth's "Easy Street" hipcamp. Right on the water and away from the world, it was exactly the getaway location I'd hoped for, so I even stayed an extra day. The outdoor shower is fantastic. The endless changing beauty from sunrise to sunset will amaze you. I plan to return next year.

Weekend Trip to Peace and Friendship
Ruth welcomed me for my weekend stay as her very first Hipcamp guest, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The property sits just steps from the water and a nearby beach, and it’s well set up with a full kitchen (complete with a pizza oven!).
She provided much-needed coffee and great conversation, which made the stay feel extra warm and personal. I even got to use the pizza oven with fresh dough I picked up from a local pizza truck.
Ruth was an absolutely wonderful host, and I’d definitely stay here again. All around, an amazing spot.

The Lobster Boat has been one of our highlight of our trip around Nova Scotia! David took great care welcoming us in his unique place he built and we had a great time exploring the space. It is a peaceful place, yet pretty close to Antigonish city with all the amenities. Bonus point for being pet friendly!

David was the best host. He was thoughtful and welcoming. At Lobster Boat Inn, you have everything you need for a perfect unique glamping experience. The boat is a piece of art in itself. I highly recommand.

I bought this as a Christmas present for my brother and his wife and they said it was awesome and very unique. A lot of thought and details went into the design of the boat. They also said David was very friendly, personable and easy to talk to. David thought they were newlyweds (guessing he has guests coming who are) and even had a gift for them. Amazing and thoughtful.
