About this cottage rental

Nestled in New Brunswick, this lovely cottage for $242 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Fall asleep to the sounds and motion of gentle river waves in this fully equipped Cottage for three. If you love the water, you’ll love Ketch Cottage. Located in Pleasantville, NS. Ketch Cottage is a unique floating house experience with modern décor and amenities. The La Have River runs from the heart of Bridgewater to the mouth of the Atlantic Ocean (roughly 15 kms). From Bridgewater, travel down the west side of the river 5 kms to find the cottage. From there you are 15 minutes from Fort Point Museum, artisans, distilleries, wineries, and one of our favourite places to eat, the La Have Bakery. From the Bakery, hop on the cable ferry toward the East side where you will find yourself closer to Oven’s Provincial Park, Lunenburg (a world UNESCO Heritage site), and the charm of the Lunenburg’s surrounding areas. On either side of the river, you’re on Nova Scotia’s Lighthouse Route where you’ll find Nova Scotia’s most popular and sandy beaches. Drive 20 minutes along the river’s west side to find Risser’s Beach, our largest lifeguarded family friendly beach, Crescent Beach, a drive-on beach with sprawling sand, and Green Bay Beach, a rustic coastline with charming places to explore. Drive 20 minutes along the river’s east side to find Hirtle’s Beach, a sandy and surfing haven, and Gaff Point, the best hiking adventure in the area. In Bridgewater you'll find the Centennial trail, an 8 km long hiking / biking trail running through the town. If staying closer to home is more your speed, enjoy the fire pit, kayaks (2), SUP (2) or sit on the cottage’s deck and watch the river activities, fish or just soak up the sun. Ketch Cottage is a 420 plus square foot floating cottage with a dormered loft bedroom and a secondary reading loft. The cottage includes one ¾ bathroom with shower, sink, and an electric marine toilet. The open concept main floor has a basic kitchen including a full-size fridge, sink, microwave, and 2 induction burners, and the living room has seating for four, a sofa bed, air conditioning, and a TV equipped with Bell FibreOp and movie channels. Outside, you can BBQ under the covered porch or relax on the attached 380 square foot deck.

It is not often that you have reality and imagination match, but this perfect floating cottage meets and exceeds all expectations. Everything that you need is there, and the host goes above and beyond to make sure the extra touches are provided (from evening boat rides to help with streaming services)!! Could NOT have had a more perfect stay at Ketch Cottage :)

Ketch Cottage is an awesome place on the LaHave River, NS. We enjoyed watching the sunrise and the river having a morning coffee, or a glass of wine on the dock in the evening. Other things to do Kayak, float, swim or have a fire. We travel so we bring everything you would when renting. We were surprised that we could have left everything at home. Gordan the owner and host has made sure Ketch Cottage has everything you need and more both inside and outside. Gordon has covered every detail and then some. All you need are your cloths and groceries and enjoy! Gordon is an awesome host and goes out of his way to make sure you feel at home and welcome. If you need anything, just ask and he will take care of your request. We drove some 900 miles from Pennsylvania to spend a week at Ketch Cottage and are planning a return trip for next year....What an Awesome place. If you want a great place and location, Ketch Cottage, Pleasantville, Nova Scotia is a great place to go ! Vytautas & Karen Hughesville, Pennsylvania USA 14 to 21 July 2023

Gordon, is a very responsive informative and knowledgeable person . The “floating cottage” had everything you required and very clean. We so enjoyed the evening kayak trips on the estuary. Sitting on the deck drinking coffee watching the sunset and mist rolling in. Thank you for a wonderful 7 days John & Lynn
