Juniors Dream
1 site · Lodging84 acres · Subdivision B, NSJuniors Dream is located on a Christmas Tree and Blueberry Farm. There are 84 acres of woods roads to explore surrounded by Christmas trees and various ponds throughout the property. Catch and release for fun fishing in the main pond in front of the camp. There is a paddle boat, paddle board and kayak but there is only 1 adult life jacket and 2 children's so please don’t forget yours if you need more.
This is a secluded area away from any lights so the most incredible thing to do is to grab a blanket and find a spot on the property to lay and enjoy the beautiful stars that shine bright. The roads are great for bike riding and it’s a great open area for a flying a kite. During August and September delicious wild blueberries can be hand picked within walking distance from the camp but please do not drive on the fields.

Kayaker’s Island Cabin
1 site · Lodging4 acres · NSOuter Sheep island is approximately 25 acres in the confines of Lobster Bay, between Pubnico and Wedgeport. It’s near the Tusket Islands. The wharf on Surette’s Island is a 25 minute from Tusket. Mi’kmaq would have lived and hunted in this area. Then the Acadians set up homesteads. And more recently it was the site of several lobster and tuna fishing shanties. Don’t be surprised to find a piece of old cast iron stove deep in the forest. Surette’s Island is an Acadian fishing community. Babe Ruth used to come to this area, including Surette’s Island, to hunt. The water between Outer Sheep Island and Surette’s Island is called The Tittle. It’s known for powerful tides. So it’s best to time your kayaking with the tide in mind. The Surette’s Island wharf is at the end of Chemin du Tittle Road.
Learn more about this land:
Kayakers’ paradise. Island cabin. Easy landing sites. One double bed, two single bunk beds. Cook on wood stove. Bedding (sheets, pillows, duvets). Water for kitchen dishwashing is rainwater from the roof. You can use the filter to make drinking water or bring your own drinking water. No hot water unless you heat it yourself on the wood stove. One towel per guest. Cutlery, dishes, pots and pans. Keep yourself warm with the wood stove on chilly days and nights. Cabin is not winterized. Sliding patio door looks out to the ocean. No fridge. Lighting and phone charger is solar powered. Clean outhouse. Plenty of islands surround for day trips. Park at public wharf for a short kayak to the site. Paddlers should be mindful of tides. Easiest to arrive at the cabin from the wharf when the tide is rising (coming in) or flat. Picture yourself here - cooking on a Lunenburg foundry wood stove, in an 19th century lobster fishermen’s shanty on an uninhabited island. Exploring nearby islands, you’ll find remnants of abandoned Acadian homesteads - old foundations, overgrown orchards, rock walls, wells, bridges, old breakwaters and wharves. There are also many places to explore on Outer Sheep Island. You’re likely to see great blue herons in the summertime, owls, eagles, hummingbirds and lots of species of sparrow, warblers, and finch. Wonderful place for mushrooms. You’ll see old Acadian forest and find an old well and sheep paths. Great places to swim all around the island.

Outdoor stays for every style
Find your new favorite spot.
An estimated 70% of Nova Scotia's population lives in communities along 13,300 kilometers of coastline, which means one thing for Nova Scotia cabins and cottage rentals: There's ample choice among beachfront properties. Cozy cabin getaways include cottages, houseboats, retrofitted vintage trailers, and converted school buses in summer, but come winter, Nova Scotia cabin rentals are just as coveted, ranging from tiny houses to snowy chalets! Travellers can expect cottage rentals to come with decks (and often hot tubs), sporting equipment like kayaks or snowshoes, and beach gear like extra towels and umbrellas. Popular destinations include Lunenburg and its neighbour, Mahone Bay, as well as Baddeck, Yarmouth, Digby, and the Annapolis Valley (which wine lovers in particular will adore). Those looking for budget vacation rentals should look inland—while you may have to drive a bit to enjoy the water, inland rentals often come with more bedrooms, full kitchens, and outdoor spaces. Just remember to pack your bug spray!
