Guest Testimonials

 An Idyllic Retreat by the Sea
We travelled with another couple to spend a week last June in this beautiful spot. The ferry from Portland was a ‘mini cruise’ and lots of fun. Landing at Yarmouth, it was a short hour’s drive to Orchard Point. The house, itself, is pristinely clean, and well decorated with a warm, antique feel, but very modern appointments throughout. With two large sunny bedrooms, and two bathrooms, the house is perfect for traveling with friends, couples, or a family with children. The house is situated at the edge of the ocean, on a point with water views from all sides. Sunrise and sunset were spectacular, and even the one rainy day we had was special. You can do as much, or as little as you’d like during a stay. The location is perfect for day trips to Nova Scotia Highlights, including The Bay of Fundy, Halifax, Digby, Gran Pre National Historic Site, numerous Vineyards (We had lunch at Luckett Vineyard overlooking the Bay of Fundy, where everyone gets to make a free call to anywhere from the old red phone booth —spectacular!), and of course, the famed ‘Lighthouse Route’. Only minutes away is the sweet and well preserved loyalist town of Shelburne, with its Saturday farmer’s market, picturesque docks and iconic yellow Dories, still made by master dory makers. We enjoyed nice meals at a number of restaurants in Shelburne, along with a lovely harbor cruise, where we were treated to a steak and lobster dinner while touring the coast. On a few days, we just enjoyed spending the day at the house — kayaking, beach combing, grilling, and of course, having drinks by the giant fire pit at night. Overall, my husband and I agree that our time at Orchard Point was one of the happiest and most relaxing weeks we’ve had in years. A very special place that we hope to get back to soon!

We had a wonderful time here in Nova Scotia. We tried swimming at Crescent Beach - way too cold but found some warm water for the kids to enjoy at Roseway Beach. Our son enjoyed catching mackerel off the pier and our daughter enjoyed picking up sea shells off the shore line. Thanks a million for a great holiday.

A fantastic place! The cottage is a great location for walking or touring. The house and the views surpassed our expectations. Very friendly people. We'll be back.

Description

Neptunes Rise is a newly built, contemporary cottage in a picturesque woodland setting with miles of unspoiled oceanfront at the doorstep.

Constructed over the last 10 years, Neptunes Rise has a sleek, crisp design that makes the most of its unique hillside setting. Upside down, with the bedrooms on the ground floor and the living space upstairs, the house capitalizes on its private location and glorious sunset ocean views.

Set up for socializing, the upper floor is an open concept living space with a fully equipped beautiful kitchen, a large dining table, and comfortable lounge seating. Large windows flood the space with light, while a working wood stove creates a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The lower level has two queen size bedrooms, both of which have patio doors that lead out onto a stone patio. The house is family friendly with a children's sleeping nook under the stairs with a pull out trundle bed and a selection of children's toys and books. Also on the lower level is a large 3 piece bathroom with walk in shower and laundry facilities.

Location

Neptunes Rise is located on the western shore of Jordan Bay in the secluded coastal community of Enslows Point. Nestled in mature pines, with remnants of an old apple orchard, the grounds are scattered with walking trails and dotted with old stone walls making a hike through the property an adventure in itself. From the cottage a footpath leads to the rocky beach where you can launch one of the cottages stand up paddle boards and explore the bay. At night, this is the perfect spot for a beach bonfire under the stars.

10 minutes away, Shelburne is the nearest town. Here you will find a grocery store, restaurants, theatre, craft brewery and museums.

For outdoor activities, the nearest beach is the Sandy Point Lighthouse Beach. A little further along the shore are Louis Head Beach and Crescent Beach. If you want to get out onto the water, Candlebox Kayaking offers a wide range of kayak tours. For passionate surfers, Southwest Nova Scotia has a surprising number of world class surfing spots: check out Round Bay Beach or Western Head Beach near Liverpool.

Lunenburg, Chester and Mahone Bay are all within easy day trip distance. It is a 2-hour drive to Halifax International Airport and 1.5 hours to the ferry terminal in Yarmouth.

Guestbook

"We loved our stay at Neptune's Rise. The location was quiet and scenic. Being right on the bay we enjoyed paddle boarding, searching for sea glass, and even swimming. Brrrr!

Communicating with the host was helpful and always prompt.

The house is lovely, was clean, and had everything we needed. We would highly recommend staying here."

Deidre, Lebanon, NH, 2022


"Overall stay was well beyond our expectations. The location was amazing the house was wonderful the walks on shore you'll never forget. Lots to keep the little ones busy which we werent expecting at all. Like coloring books, toys, blocks even playdoh etc... which really helped. Everything was clean and perfect. Definitely would stay again. No complaints at all. Perfect for the family."

Jen, 2022


"Gorgeous place. The photos are beautiful but it's even better in person. Completely private and surrounded by nature, you'll drink your coffee next to the tree tops. We absolutely loved our stay."

Emily, Halifax, Canada, 2020


"I would book another stay here in a heartbeat. We spent a lot of our trip on the porch off the kitchen, watching seals, deer, eagles, and osprey go by. My son stayed busy with the toys and books. It's a totally private space, yet minutes from Shelburne and not far from many beautiful destinations on the south shore. The beds are very comfortable, the kitchen is well appointed, and the property is lovely."

Lynn, Dartmouth, Canada, 2020


"We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. The location and house are even better in person. The house was very clean when we arrived and had everything we needed. It is perfectly located and close to many beaches. We were thrilled by how private the property was. We really enjoyed morning coffees on the deck looking at the water. We had our 2 year old daughter with us and the house was very well equipped for her. That was a lovely surprise. We would highly recommend staying here and look forward to going back!"

Carolyn, Hammonds Plains, Canada, 2020


"Unique cottage design with lots of windows & a super kitchen. Ocean view and beach front make a great place to kayak, walk and an evening fire. Private & quiet, & only 5 min drive from Shelburne."

Paul, Nova Scotia, Canada, 2020
