About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Saltbox cottage

an eye to retaining its original character and warmth while making it functional with some more contemporary features.

The kitchen has a fridge, stove, oven, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, drip coffee maker, and a toaster.

There is also a smart speaker to answer your questions, update you with the news, or serenade you with music.

The first bedroom has a queen-sized futon that can be folded up to make it into a sitting room.

There are TVs in the living room and one of the bedrooms. Although there is no live TV, they do access Netflix, and Roku channels.

The washroom (toilet, sink, and shower) is on the ground floor by the back porch. There are two rooms upstairs: a bedroom with a double bed and a bedroom/den with a queen size futon that sleeps two.

The large back deck overlooks Clarke's Mountain and is accented with a gazebo. In the deck box you will find folding chairs. There is also a fire pit on the side garden.

If you go left on railbed at the back of the property, it will take you to Clarke's Beach Information Centre (museum) in the old station. A little farther down there is a children's playground and paddling beach at the community park.

This is perfect for a place to relax, or a use as a base camp for day trips from which to explore a beautiful and historic part of our province.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a sofa bed, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Quaint Salt Box Home Does the Trick

This home was in an ideal location to venture out to various sites. Everything you need for your stay was there. Although the stairway going upstairs was narrow, we were aware from other reviews about it. I am over 6’ tall so the double beds weren’t ideal but we still slept well. I was already aware of the double beds before we arrived. We only had our breakfasts there so we didn’t use the kitchen for our other meals. The owner, Jeff responded quickly to a question we had. We enjoyed our stay in Clarke’s Beach.

Great place for a couple or small family

Immaculately clean house with all the amenities needed. Lovely sun room, back deck and gazebo with views to the hillside. Great community to stay as a base for exploring the area.
