The Lobster Boat Inn

1 site · Lodging3 acres · Antigonish, NS
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. Thus the serial number: NOMOH2O as it will never float again. Our motto is Off the Grid, Off the Water and Off the Beaten Path! The original boat was built in 1995, and when found was in need of some tender-loving care. It was renovated in 2022/23 to provide visitors with a rustic, unique, "glamping" experience. It 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. Our amenities include: comfy beds, fresh drinking-water, refrigerator, interior and exterior bathroom facilities, with a hot shower. If you like, try the lobster eggs for breakfast! Off the property you will find near by: auto race watching, hiking, biking 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. Sure, you can sit inside and watch one of the many DVD movies, but why not explore nature, take a walk through the woods, talk to your wife, play with the kids, or throw a ball for your dog? If you want to relax, maybe a visit to one of our 19 Antigonish-area beaches might tickle your fancy. Do you want to golf, mountain bike, fish, visit a lighthouse or a petting farm? We have that too! Take a drive on our new 4-lane Hwy 104 and you'll be blown away at how beautiful asphalt can be. Wide-open highways make for smooth, fast, travel to places like The Cabot Trail or the ferry to PEI. Both are within an hour's drive. Stargazing is wondrous through our dark, clear skies. If you're lucky, you might even spot the Space Station passing by, as you sit at the fire-pit roasting marshmallows after a long day of fun.

The best camping near Beaver Mountain Provincial Park guide

Overview

About

Beaver Mountain Provincial Park is a haven for those seeking an adventure amid the rugged beauty of Antigonish County. With a 6 km trail system, visitors can indulge in cross-country skiing and snow-shoeing against the backdrop of Cape Breton Island. While the park does not offer camping facilities, its challenging unpaved hills and serene paved walkways provide ample opportunity for day-trippers to explore and enjoy the natural splendor of Nova Scotia.

When to go

The best time to visit Beaver Mountain Provincial Park is during the winter months when the snow transforms the landscape into a paradise for cross-country skiing and snow-shoeing. Summer offers lush greenery and pleasant weather for hiking. Note that there are no facilities in winter, and parking is available at the gate only.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you have appropriate gear for winter sports, as the park is a popular spot for cross-country skiing and snow-shoeing.
  • Be aware that there are no facilities available in winter; plan accordingly.
  • Parking is limited to the gate area, so arrive early to secure a spot.
