Oceanfront 3-Bedroom Captain's House

The 3 bedroom oceanfront Captain's House, offers unparalleled views across the bay of UNESCO World Heritage Site Lunenburg from most windows.

Meticulously restored with nautical accents, it's perfect for families, couples, or solo travelers seeking tranquility.

The house is cozy in the cooler months with a wood burning fireplace, or outside firepit, and for good measure, a heated mattress pad on the king bed in the main bedroom. With responsive forced air heating, the house takes a way the chill in a matter of minutes.

Upstairs the main, king bedroom, has a reading nook in the bump out, which is a feature of this type of house in the area, and it also provides some of the best views across to Lunenburg Harbour. At the top of the stairs to the right is a queen bed, where you can relax under the skylight and gaze at the myriad of stars on a clear night, and hear the waves lapping against the shore. Across the landing, the third bedroom has a twin bed with plenty of storage available for clothes.

There is a full bathroom upstairs with both tub and separate shower to ensure you can remove all of the sand, and a half bath downstairs for convenient use.

The den downstairs is a great spot to cozy in for a movie night, or for the children to watch TV. Off the den is the half bath, with toilet and sink, and washer and dryer for any laundry that might need a freshen up.

A fully equipped kitchen is complete with stove, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, air fryer, convection oven, slow cooker, and bakeware, rolling pin and blender if you fancy baking up a storm during your stay. With plenty of crockery, cutlery and utensils, you shouldn't be short of anything.

Once you have cooked or baked up your delights, sit around the dining table which offers stunning views across the bay to Garden Lots and Blue Rocks.

Just a short drive to Lunenburg's vibrant culture, restaurants and many events, it's also a short drive to experience Mahone Bay and see the three churches. If you just need to pop out for provisions, Rose Bay about 5kms away is stocked with essentials, including beer and wine, and also has a bistro offering meals during the day. Whilst you're out that way, you might want to visit Sand Dollar and/or Hirtles Beaches.

If you would rather stay home, you are steps away from the beach, a sea glass collectors paradise, and a great spot to watch the lobster boats coming and going during the season (November - May). Catch up with them at the wharf across the road to buy some fresh off the boat! The house is a sunshine haven in the Summer with front deck patio furniture, and plenty of comfortable seating inside from which to take in the views, whatever the weather!

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay, you won't want to leave!
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

We had a wonderful week stay at the Captain's House! Check-in was seamless, the home exceeded our expectations. It was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for our stay. The location was exactly what we were looking for, with a beach on our doorstep, Lunenburg and Mahone Bay a short drive away, and views of porpoises and seals swimming in the bay. Lots of memories made during our stay, we highly recommend Captain's House!

This home was exactly what we were looking for: comfortable, clean, and incredibly well-located. It offered easy access to all the sights we wanted to explore in the Lunenburg area. We especially loved waking up to the sound of waves gently lapping the shore and watching the sunrise over the water. The house was thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed, and it felt warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. We’d love to return on our next visit!

My family and I had a wonderful atay at Captain's House. The view of the bay right outside of the front of house was spectacular!! One morning we even saw a couple of whales breaching out there. Its a roomy place that held the 5 of us easily and a couple that came to visit us one day.Rachel was easy to deal with and responded to questions in a timely maner.I would definitely stay here again and recommend Captain's House to anyone coming to the area.

We (my husband and I) were so pleased with this charming seaside cottage/house. It is decorated beautifully with a cute nautical theme and an amazingly comfortable bed. We slept like stones both nights. The owner was extremely responsive to our questions. The view….incredible. Cannot recommend this place enough.
