Deceleration, relaxation and recreation
Sit back and enjoy the cedar-clad, quintessential Canadian cottage right on the water and absolute tranquility.
Lie on one of the sun loungers and enjoy the view of the inlet and nature from the balcony terrace. If you want to sit even closer to the water, head down to the cottage's own wharf and make yourself comfortable on one of the typical Canadian wooden chairs. In the mood for some exercise? At the boathouse you will find a canoe, two single kayaks, a double kayak and life jackets.
Afterwards, treat yourself to something tasty from the grill. This is located on the upper floor in a so-called "Screenporch". This is a covered outdoor area, which was completely sealed with mosquito netting, so that you have -even after sunset- peace from small pests.
The weather doesn't play along or it's just too cold to stay outside longer?
An outside staircase leads to the main entrance of the house. After taking off your shoes and jackets, you'll enter a great room, which features a fully equipped kitchen, a spacious dining area with seating for 6, and a cozy living room.
Light the fireplace and enjoy the quick and cozy warmth, as well as the fantastic view through the large panoramic windows.
Behind the living/dining area are two bedrooms (a master bedroom and a room with two single beds) and a bathroom with shower tub.
As part of the modernization work, the master bedroom received a new king-size bed and a new mattress.

Via a staircase at the kitchen you reach the ground floor. There you first enter our lovingly named "cinema room". If you don't like the smaller TV set in the living room, you will find it here; a huge TV and a surround system provide real movie enjoyment; a leather couch for coziness.
Furthermore, the third bedroom with a queen-size bed and new mattress and another bathroom with shower are located on this floor.
A washer and dryer are also available for use on the ground floor.
You are still not really warm? Then use the sauna, also on the ground floor of the house. Also in the sauna and the adjoining small relaxation room, the views of the estuary through the built-in panoramic windows are a delight.
The house, built in 2006, is situated in a secluded location in the middle of nature and yet so central that you can reach the nearest town of Antigonish in 10-15 minutes by car.
We would be happy to welcome you and your family in our house.
PS: In the house is a high chair for a toddler available. Please let our dear Paula know briefly if you need it.

Guest Reviews:
- "This property was our home for 4 weeks. And home it was. Spacious and homey and the view! I can't give it enough stars. Paula, property manager, was so helpful. She helped us out on at least 2 occasions when we had a logistics problem. Paula went above and beyond. She was typical of the wonderful people we met in Nova Scotia. Serenity by the Sea was exactly that. I would love to go back in the winter. Thank you Dr. Ems for sharing your wonderful property with us. The pleasure was all ours. Tom and Wendy."
