To be clear - the eighth sleeping bed is a day bed located in the downstairs living room space.

Ideally located within the village of St Martins New Brunswick. St. Martins is a village on the Bay of Fundy in Saint John County, New Brunswick, Canada.

The village was founded as Quaco by 1783 by soldiers from the disbanded loyalist King’s Orange Rangers. It was incorporated in 1967. Led by shipbuilders, it was the third most productive shipbuilding town in the Maritimes, producing over 500 ships. Shipbuilding declined after the 1870s and today tourism is the major industry. St. Martins is an ideal place for a relaxing escape from the city. But don’t let its size fool you; there’s plenty here to keep even the most active visitors occupied. Here are just a few great reasons to visit the village of St. Martins, New Brunswick:

Attractions include:
-St. Martins Sea Caves : The Village's premier attraction is the St. Martins sea caves. Walkers and hikers consult the tidal charts to find the best time to walk the ocean floor out to sea caves, caverns and arches. The tide rises, soon erasing their footsteps, filling the caves and caverns with water. The tide rises and falls every 6 hours and 13 minutes , creating new times for high and low tides every day. The tidal range can be up to 38 feet on our shores in St. Martins.

-The beach and tidal harbor : St. Martins is a place of Tidal Wonder at the heart of the Bay of Fundy. Life is governed here by the rhythm of the world's highest tides. A colorful fleet of fishing boats wait in the Bay for the high tide to rise and fill the empty harbor with water so that they can unload their catch. At low tide the boats sit in the mud. Its a daily tidal cycle that has been showcased for many years in a time lapse film at Disney's Epcot Center in Florida. At low tide, you can also enjoy miles of beaches, both sandy and rocky, stretching the length of the village. You don’t have to stay on land to discover the Fundy tides. There are several operators in St. Martins who rent kayaks and lead tours along the coast so you can get up close and personal with the cliffs even at high tide.

-The start of the Fundy Trail : Fundy Trail is a 2,559 hectare/6,323 acre park featuring a 19 km/12 mile parkway hugging the southern coast of New Brunswick with stunning views of the world-renowned Bay of Fundy.

Less than an hour from Saint John in St. Martins, visitors can explore the trails that connect to paths leading to pristine beaches, cross a suspension bridge, see tumbling waterfalls and Precambrian rocks or stop by the interpretive center and discover the rich history of a once thriving lumber industry. Home to the beginning of the Fundy Footpath hiking trail, one of the top 50 hiking paths in the world.

-Two covered bridges : St. Martins is home to two covered bridges. In fact, popular lore has it; it’s the only place in the world you can have two covered bridges and a lighthouse in the same photo.

- The Quaco Head Lighthouse : The original location for our lighthouse was on the rock you see in the bay. After that burned it was moved to shore, after that was replaced by the lighthouse that's there now. The original eventually became our Visitor Information Center.

-The Quaco Museum and Library

-Miles of unspoiled beaches : Our area has miles of beaches. Some are sandy while others are rocky, all are unique. You can reach some by land while others are accessible only by kayak. You can enjoy a walk or a day.

-The highest tides in the world

-1 1/2 hours drive to the border of USA

-Many places to dine and sample fresh local fare, fresh seafood and lobster and world famous chowder

-sample the friendliness of the locals and discover the charms of a small Maritime town

it’s well worth taking a few days to discover this hidden gem of a village. It’s the perfect base to explore the Fundy Trail, experience the impressive Fundy tides, and feast on excellent seafood, all while enjoying small-town Atlantic Canadian hospitality.

Wow!
The seaglass house was sparkling clean and had the cutest decor! It was perfect for us. The downstairs really gives extra room to spread out after a day of exploring. What a cute village too- we explored the caves several times which is a shirt drive from the property. The Fundy drive is right there too- it is a must see. Thank you for sharing your house!

2 night stay St Martin's
4 friends from our musical group stayed in this beautiful home. It was convenient to the performance venue and although we couldnt enjoy the outdoor areas because of, well, a hurricane, the indoor areas were terrific. We enjoyed watching the Olympics on the big tv. Kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed.

Beautiful cottage
This property was beyond our expectations ! It had everything you need for and home away from home and more . Very comfortable beds . Only thing that should be considered is if bringing kids under three , there are a lot of beautiful glass ornaments so we spent extra time putting them up out of reach . We were a family of 4 generations and everyone enjoyed the cottage

Perfect place to stay with a family to explore the Fundy Bay Area around Saint Martins. The house is very nicely decorated and has everything you need. They have thought of it all. It’s a short drive to the Sea caves, Fundy Trail Parkway and the Fundy National Park.

Wonderful time in St-Martins!
We had the pleasure to stay at the sea cottage for a week. The neighborhood was very quiet, the cottage was very clean, cozy and welcoming. We were very please to find out that the cottage exceeded the necessary amenities! Towels, dishes, pan and pot, coffee maker, blender, etc... everything is there! It's close to many touristic attractions like the sea caves, beaches and Fundy park. We recommend the sea cottage, it's a home away from home!

Belle semaine à St-Martins
Très beau cottage lumineux à proximité de tout. Les lits sont très confortables. La maison très propre et bien équipée et décorée. Mobiliers et terrasse extérieure en très bonne condition. La chambre au sous-sol est un peu plus humide seule chose à vérifier pour le propriétaire. Nous avons adoré Brown beach, les Rock Caves, Fundy trail, Quaco Museum. Une semaine a été suffisant pour faire le tour de la place si vous désirez rester en ville sinon d’autres activités sont possibles à 1 heure de route tel que Hopewell Rock. Quelques jeux de société sur places. Robert répond rapidement à ses courriels nous avons été satisfait de notre séjour. Nous avons été agréablement surpris de voir que le shampoing, serviette de plage et serviette de bain en quantité suffisante pour 6 personnes étaient fourni gracieusement. Une belle surprise Il y a des veilleuses dans les chambres et les chambres de bains ce qui a été appréciés des enfants. La laveuse et sécheuse fonctionnent très bien. Une maison bien rénovée et entretenue. Sophie Karagiannis

Beautiful Retreat!
My son and I stayed here for our 2 weeks of quarantine and we were very comfortable. House is beautifully done and has everything you would need. Property owner was fantastic, answering all our questions in a timely manner. 5 minutes from downtown St. Martins (although we couldn't enjoy given quarantine) and a really large yard to run around in. Grateful to have spent a difficult few weeks in such a gorgeous place! Highly recommend!

We were two families with young children, and this house was just perfect. The only thing that could have made it better would have been beach access and/or a view of the bay. Otherwise perfect. :)
