Nestled in the scenic community of Port Rexton in the Trinity Bight area, this former United Church chapel offers a truly unique Newfoundland experience. With sweeping ocean views of Champney’s Cove, Herring Cove, and across Robin Hood Bay to the Skerwink headland, the property is surrounded by natural beauty. Crown land at the rear features low growth flora, and a private trail winds through the woods to a hilltop lookout with breathtaking vistas of Trinity Bay.

Port Rexton is part of the Bonavista Peninsula, about a 2.5-hour drive from St. John’s International Airport. The area is known for its vibrant food scene, with nearby favorites like Fisher’s Loft Fine Dining, Bonavista Social Club, and Two Whales Coffee Shop. The popular Port Rexton Brewing Co. is just a short drive away for locally crafted beers.

Outdoor enthusiasts will love the famous Skerwink Trail, just minutes from the property. This 5.3 km loop has been recognized among the best hikes in North America and Europe, offering dramatic coastal scenery, sea stacks, and seasonal iceberg views. Other nearby trails include Fox Island Trail and Lockston Path Provincial Park, both perfect for exploring coastal landscapes and spotting wildlife.

Families can enjoy the Champney’s West Aquarium, a seasonal attraction with touch tanks, viewing tanks, and marine exhibits. History lovers will appreciate the Champney’s West Heritage House, while those seeking quiet relaxation can simply enjoy the peaceful coastline and fishing village charm.

8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
This is a lovely, clean and unique vacation dwelling in a beautiful location conveniently located close to stunning coastal towns and hiking trails. The kitchen is well-equipped (except I could not locate a kettle or a teapot). Dave, the VRBO host, was very responsive to all our questions and accommodating (leading up to and during our stay). As a newer VRBO listing, there were a few items that could be improved upon such as ensuring all condiments/products listed on rental description are available for each new crop of visitors (e.g., pepper, coffee, hair conditioner) - Perhaps a checklist would help? Note: when we raised such issues, Dave responded immediately and pepper and coffee were delivered within a couple of hours. Lastly, please note for anyone considering staying at ‘The Chapel’ there is one bedroom with adjacent bathroom on the main floor, but the second bedroom is up a spiral staircase which could be tricky to navigate for an elderly person and/or younger children - especially in the middle of the night. It would also have been nice to have had a second bathroom, particularly on the loft level given accessibility considerations. That said, we as two couples in our late 50s-70s had a fantastic overall time, and would recommend the Chapel to other visitors!

Beautiful place. Our stay was comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was quiet and relaxing. We did not get a chance to use the sauna but it did look clean and easy to use. Would definitely recommend to anyone that needs to stay in the area.
