The Boathouse overlooking Green's Point Lighthouse and Passamaquoddy Bay


The Boathouse is nestled on Green's Point Road, just a short three-minute walk from the Green's Point Lighthouse and Museum in L'Etete. Once a traditional boathouse, it has been carefully transformed into a cozy and inviting retreat. Sheltered from the wind yet offering panoramic views of the wild, untamed landscapes, we hope our guests find peace and comfort in this unique location. From the deck, enjoy the calming sounds of seals, the rhythmic crash of the waves, and the haunting call of the foghorn as the mist rolls in. Bring your binoculars to spot local wildlife, including migrating birds, whales, and seals. Conveniently located near amenities, shops, golf courses, whale watching, fishing, boating, and a variety of other activities.

Relaxing vacation by the bay

Charming property, clean well supplied boathouse. The owner, Maureen is very pleasant and was very helpful with suggestions for day trips in the area. Hummingbirds by the deck and ocean life down by the lighthouse. Very relaxing vacation!

A little slice of paradise

A wonderful relaxing experience in a beautiful coastal setting. Our host Maureen was exceptional and couldn’t have done more to make our stay special. The boathouse itself is outfitted with local art and artifacts, and has been lovingly renovated. Truly one of the best VRBO vacations that we have experienced.

Ocean VIiew

This cottage is great, well designed and decorated, very comfortable. It offers great views of the ocean and an easy drive to any hiking trails, which we enjoy. The lighthouse nearby is an added bonus, just a short stroll over the causeway to get to. A fantastic place to watch the ferry and the setting sun!

We had a wonderful week at the Boathouse Cottage. The location could not have been better. You are a 2 minute walk away from a secluded cove on the Bay of Funny (Kelly's Cove) with so much to explore at low tide. The tide pools had lots of treasures- crabs, shells, jellyfish, and unbeatable sunsets. Just 10 minutes away is the small town of St. George with a grocery store and other amenities. Easy day trips include St. Andrews by the Sea (40 minutes) and the white sand beaches of peace river beach (30 minutes) We also really enjoyed exploring Deer Island - the free 20 minute ferry is only 5 minutes from the cottage. The cottage itself was the perfect size for our family of 4. Rustic but appointed; it had the charm of a small restored boathouse but all the comforts and necessities we needed. The owner, Maureen, lives next door and is always available to answer any questions. She is a long time resident to the Bay of Fundy and provided us with local recommendations on beaches to explore and dining that were fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Boathouse and hope to return to again.

Wonderful!

So beautiful, so relaxing. Charming place in a wonderful location walking distance to the lighthouse. Abundant wildlife and gorgeous views! There is a often an audible foghorn, which we personally loved, but a possible consideration for exceptionally light sleepers or those sensitive to noise. Plan to visit again!

The boathouse is quirky and kind of artsy and fun! Nice side deck with very comfy chairs and a propane fire table. (the propane was not working great but my handy brother had it fixed in no time) No Bon fires on property but the beach is literally across the street. Lovely beach views, we thought we would be even closer as per the pics but had no issues. The pollinator flowers and grounds were so lovely and peaceful. The owners are lovely, they have a cute dog but he was a little growly. I am a dog lover but it could be a little scary for children. Being so close to the bay, the house cooled down at night but upstairs was very warm during the day. The main bedroom was nice and large, the loft bedroom was open, to the left as soon as you came upstairs so no hallway or upstairs bathroom. Overall it was a nice get away. We enjoyed the ferry ride over to deer island.The kitchen had everything that you needed. No stove per say, but two burners, toaster oven, air fryer, microwave and a bbq (on the deck)The bathroom had lovely thick face cloths and nice towels.

Le hangar à bateau est magnifique et confortable. La vue du patio sur le soleil couchant et les marches sur la plage jusqu’au phare nous ont séduits. Endroit parfait pour relaxer et s’éloigner des lieux trop touristiques.
