We had an amazing time . Our kids LOVED the fact that you are right on the water. The area itself is fun for kids and relaxing for adults! The house had most of what we needed ! Some extra TLC would go a long way as we felt there were areas of opportunity.However, we still highly recommend if you are looking for a low key getaway :)

The cottage right on the beach was a lovely place to relax. The space was clean and tastefully appointed. Only two points made our time there less than perfect: the shower was in desperate need of repair and the owner's temporary fix was not water-resistant; and we weren't made aware that the cottage was for sale. We were confronted with the buyer's real estate agent one morning asking to come in for a home inspection (we refused). That being said, seeing the fishing boats come in and out, buying lobster and crab fresh at the Fish Market, witnessing the fabulous daily sunsets and the impressive tides all made for a great experience.

Right on the Bay!

This property is an older beach house right on the beach. The neighbors are very close but friendly. The view and the sunsets make this house.

Out of the way beach house

We enjoyed our stay in an authentic fishing village with no tourism. The only business was one fish market which isn't always open. We enjoyed the tides rising and falling and seeing the boats sitting in the mud rise up and head out for their day of fishing. The view was great although somewhat blocked from the house by the berm that helped to hold the bay back. As in the pictures the beach was also very rocky so not really walkable for older folks. Our main problem was that we could not find the wifi password the first day. It was written in faded yellow ink on a clam shell. It would be better posted somewhere more conspicuous or emailed with the VRBO information. We tried to contact the owner but with no wifi or cell service there was no way to do so. I did send a message via the VRBO app from the small town of Berwick about 10 miles away but never got a response. The bedrooms are both up steep steps and the one bed is quite low. My friends are worried that I am being too critical and we really did enjoy our stay but I am just pointing out things that might be a disappointment to others.

Belle emplacement sur le bord de l'eau

Endroit typique de villages de pêcheur. Belle petite boutique et restaurant près de notre chalet. Un peu déçu trop tard voir les pêcheurs la pêche se terminait le 31 juillet et le marché de poisson fermé

Had a great time, beautiful location, great neighbours, and everything we needed was provided. The cottage may be a little older but it was clean, very well appointed, and you can't beat the sunset view! We had a great time, met wonderful people, and loved the location. I would recommend this to anyone looking for beautiful location.

Cottage right on the waterfront and a stone's throw from a small harbor with a fish market. Enjoyed seeing the tides of the Bay of Fundy and fresh lobster.

Quaint and exactly as advertised

A great place to relax and recharge. Only wish there was a bathroom upstairs where the bedrooms were. The steps to the second floor were steep and making that trip down the stairs to the bathroom was no walk in the park.

Just a few steps to the Bay

With just a few steps you are on the beach of the Bay of Fundy. It’s a beach combers paradise with the most driftwood I’ve ever seen. Walk the beach and discover what looks like rocks that were painted by Mother Nature, and if your lucky some beach glass as well. Angel’s cottage has everything we needed to enjoy our two nights there. It’s only a few minutes from the town of Berwick, and close to many hiking/biking trails and is a great spot to put a kayak in and go for a paddle. Angela is a great host and we look forward to going back.

Glamping in Harboursville

Arrived to find flys/fruitflies that took us two days of swatting to be rid of. The pots/pans/etc all need replacement. Broken coffee maker, rusty toaster, etc. Peeling paint bedroom ceiling. Nothing much in the cabinets. The restaurant and fish market have closed down so either bring food with you or travel to Berwick to eat about 20 minutes away. The property overall could stand a refresh. Owner did respond regarding broken coffee maker and someone showed up with french presses. We would look elsewhere if we return to the area.

FANTASTIC SUNSETS

We will remember the sunsets forever!Great location, right on the beach. Typical basic beach cottage, well worn but adequate furniture, kitchen appliances, bathroom fixtures, mattresses, living room furniture. A good value for our money, but the sunsets were priceless. Average cleanliness.

This is a typical very comfortable basic beach cottage, well worn furniture, old appliances, bathroom needs help, not the cleanest floors. Great location, fantastic sunsets over the Bay of Fundy, reasonable prices. Great value!
