This little boathouse sits right on Scotch Cove in East Chester, NS. Enjoy seaside views from every angle, with lovely outdoor seating and BBQ. The deck leads directly to the dock allowing for easy access to swimming and paddle-boarding in summer months. The place is just a minute's walk from hiking and biking trails, with nearby lakes and sandy beaches. The indoor projector and screen make movie nights so much better. The boathouse is fully equipped for winter with indoor heating and woodstove. I've replaced my old fish house that was succumbing to the sea and wildlife with a modern, Scandanavian-feel house with high ceilings and full ocean view and access. There are 4 paddle boards for your use in the summer and a swim float in the Cove to paddle or swim to. It is a year-round retreat to decompress and enjoy the sea. The living area, bed and bath are all easily accessible although the doorways and hall is narrow. There is a separate deck off the bedroom to a private sitting area and outdoor shower. The loft is accessed by an alternating staircase, not appropriate for small children or those with mobility impairment. My cottage is just up the hill which I also rent or use personally. I am always available on the app! My phone number will come up once you are booked, so you may always call or text me anytime. I live 40 minutes away and have others available locally to look after any urgent problems. Hume Point on Scotch Cove is inhabited by both permanent and seasonal residents. As the boathouse is directly on the water, noise can travel significantly, so we try to keep things quiet by 11 pm to be respectful of my lovely neighbors. You will need a car to get around the South Shore. I have 2 parking spots at the Boathouse. Paddle boards are left on the dock or on the cottage dock. These are available to both you and the cottage guests. I ask that you share these as needed. There are at least 4 available for your use. Paddles may be kept on either dock with the boards. Please use the lifejackets provided in the open shed on the upper property. There are no currents or wave action in the cove, but venturing into the bay requires having personal floatation equipment. Any poor or impaired swimmers MUST use personal floatation.
