Quaco Cottages - The Waterloo
Situated on the 200+ year property of the Shipbuilder’s Cottage & Summer Kitchen, this one-bedroom unit has a covered porch overlooking a spacious treed lawn, gazebo, hammocks and it's own outdoor BBQ and fire bowl. With the Bay of Fundy within view, the highest tides in the world can be heard caressing the shoreline and, when foggy, the Quaco Head lighthouse fog horn echoes it’s warning to fishing boats in the bay. Cozy and comfortable, peaceful and quiet, it's a perfect place to relax after a day exploring the beauty of the area.
Ideally situated, the cottage is located 5 km from the Village of St. Martins, the harbour, restaurants, cafe, art and gift shops, tourist information centre, museum and the Sea Caves. The Fundy Trail is 13 km from the cottage. Within walking distance of the cottage is The Quaco Head Lighthouse (1.3kms), and Brown's beach (1.9kms) - which is as quiet as it is scenic and a rock lover's dream. There is also a coastal trail that connects the two.
In consideration of the peace and serenity offered by its location, guests are asked to be considerate of the owner, those in the adjacent rental units and local residents and observe a quiet time from 10:00 pm-9:00 am.
The owner Nick and his fatherJoe, the property manager, reside on site and are happy to help if you have any questions regarding the property or about planning your adventures in the area.

Perfect
The property was perfect for us. We were looking to relax and take in a few local attractions. Did chat with Joe a bit and he was happy to accommodate if and when required. Saint Martins is wonderful area, thank you Joe and Nick for the home away from home, all the best.

Great stay/ Highly recommend
Very comfortable cozy cottages! Loved our stay! Wish we could have stayed longer! New, well designed cottages that made it a comfortable and enjoyable stay! Sitting under the stars at night by the firepit made it even better. Great area close to the Sea Caves and a must do Fundy Parkway! Definitely recommend! Host was great too!

Perfect cottage, beautiful location
What an amazing gem, both the cottage and location. I had never been to the beautiful area before but will be back. The cottage was so amazing that I want to build one just like it on my property in Alberta

Incredibly Perfect Little Cottage!
This was our first VRBO, and the bar has now been set incredibly high! Nick is a very kind, considerate, and friendly host. He was helpful with information/ suggestions about the area and was just so chill and pleasant to hang out and chat with. Our little chihuahua was welcomed too! The cottage is beautifully done — very clean, well organized, and lots of thought and care put into the details to make guest’s stay comfortable. The property is clean and serene — tranquil and truly feels like a little piece of paradise. We loved the privacy of the cottage, but also the availability and accessibility of Nick and his dad, should we need something. The location is perfect too — about 5 minutes into town or 10 minutes to a stunning, mostly secluded beach in the opposite direction. 10/10 we would stay at this property again in the future and would recommend it to friends and family. Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay, Nick!

Wonderful stay
The place was nice, clean and well-appointed. It had a nice kitchen, a great little barbecue and fire pit outside and the service was impeccable. We both loved it and plan to return.
