At the end of each day we'd come "home" and enjoy strolling an evening loop around nearby Dock Street. A friendly little town; we'd happily rent this unit again. :)"

A bespoke luxury nature experience, on the Atlantic Ocean.

Forest Shore Dome is a Geodesic Dome within the forests of Nova Scotia’s South Shore, with ocean views and the intention to create a relationship between us and nature. It is a place to leave the ‘busy’ behind. Slowing down, re-grounding, and reconnecting - heart, body and spirit.

The forest & ocean, ruled by the moon and the seasons - time does not exist here, as we know it, in our normal day-to-day.

You set the pace here. With the intention of having all your senses awakened while falling in sync with the pulse of the nature around you, minimalist luxury is the caveat. You will have the best of everything you need, and nothing of what you do not.

We designed the dome to be a hemisphere that offers an opportunity to experience all four elements - earth, wind, fire and water - within the sacred geometry of the its' structure.

Loading the wood burning fireplace while the vintage claw foot tub fills with hot water may become your ritual. Whilst the wind moves through the trees, and the waves reach the shore, becomes your meditation.

The ocean is only a short walk down a winding forest path, and is often best enjoyed with a hot coffee or loose leaf tea.

Every item, from the organic Egyptian cotton and Flax linen bedding on the king size bed, to the organic wild harvested body/bath products and local fresh roasted coffee, has been intentionally chosen for their love of people and planet. Transparency is everything.

You may just see some of our resident wildlife - deer, foxes, porcupines, rabbits, chipmunks.

If you're a bird lover, you will see or hear all manner of birds, most notably bald eagles that nest at our shore. There are owls in the forest, loons & ducks on the water, gulls & hawks soar our shoreline. Woodpeckers, hummingbirds, blue jays, robins, goldfinches & our lovely crows have been some of our seasonal favorites.

The hosts live on the property, though the guests will have complete privacy while at the dome or walking the paths to the ocean. That being said, there’s a very friendly resident white cat, an even friendlier black cat, and a couple brave & curious chickens, that have been known to make surprise visits to the forest. You may even spot our pair of ducks or geese in the meadow.

- "What a wonderful peice of property. Just as the photos depict. Great attention to detail and tastefully decorated. The host had fresh fruit, condiments, milk, cream, coffee and teas, and a gift of goodies. We really enjoyed the record player. We will return!" - "We are a mum and daughter team who were driving around Nova Scotia finding our Roots and visiting our ancestors and family. " - "Relaxing quier and private "

Location:
Sunset Cove Cottage is nestled in a quiet cove overlooking Lake Deception. At the end of a winding road and surrounded by spruce and white pines it is a private retreat.

The lake is peaceful and quiet. Shallow in some parts and deeper in others, Lake Deception is suitable for kayaks, paddle boards and canoes. So, if you are looking for a peaceful escape away from the sounds of motorboats and jet skies, this is the place for you. Mornings on the lake are typically calm and still. It’s the perfect time to take the SUPs out for a tranquil paddle or savour your morning coffee and watch the island emerge from the morning mist.

A large two-sided deck runs the length and width of the cottage. Partially covered and furnished with wicker chairs and a sun lounger, it's perfect for lazing in the sunshine on one side and then retiring for some cool shade on the other.

The garden slopes gently down to a small sandy beach with a dock. There are hours of family entertainment to be had at the cottage. Take the paddle boards or kayaks and explore the lake. Tie up to the floating deck that doubles as a swim platform and relax! Bask in the sunshine, swim and float around in the inner tubes. Go on a woodland walk, check out the aerial acrobatics of our resident ruby throated hummingbird, Bertram as he defends his feeder. Watch a spectacular sunset and spend the evening playing board games, or star gazing around a beach bonfire.

If you tire of the cottage and want to explore, it's just 15 minutes to Shelburne where you can find museums and shopping as well as a selection of dining options. Catch a show at one of the local bars/restaurants or the Osprey Arts Center. A little further afield are provincial parks, fishing villages, beaches, museums, galleries and hiking trails.
