Second Wind Cottage - ocean front chalet near Mahone Bay & Lunenburg Nova Scotia

Please Note:

We are unable to accommodate guests from outside the Atlantic Bubble at this time.

Private but not isolated, Second Wind Cottage is located on Mahone Bay just off the Lighthouse Route on Nova Scotia's beautiful South Shore. This idyllic spot is not only a perfect place for relaxing, taking walks, or gazing at the ocean, but also an ideal home base for exploring some of the best that Nova Scotia has to offer.

Cappuccino and fresh baked scones await you at the cafes in the picturesque town of Mahone Bay just 8 minutes away. There, and in the nearby towns of Chester and Lunenburg you can enjoy the delightful shops, markets, restaurants, museums, galleries, concerts, summer festivals and maritime adventures that make the South Shore a favourite destination for visitors year after year.

Head to one of the glorious nearby beaches or explore the biking and hiking trails. (Access to the Trans Canada Trail is just a mile away.) The ocean kayaking is unbeatable among Mahone Bay's many islands and up Martins River. (Bike and kayak rentals are available in the area.)

The full-service town of Bridgewater is only 20 minutes away.

An hour's drive in any direction has new vistas and entertainments. Head north to the Bay of Fundy for the highest tides in the world and explore the country towns and villages of the beautiful Annapolis Valley or go east to visit the lively, historic port city of Halifax with its many attractions. Stop off at Peggy's Cove along the way. Or set your sights South West along the Lighthouse Route for a shore drive, a ferry ride, some spectacular beaches and perhaps go a bit further to visit the historic towns of Liverpool and Shelburne.

The cottage has lots of information and maps to help you plan your visit and we are always available to share our favourite places!

It is all here waiting for you at Second Wind!
