What an excellent stay. Totally great property in an extremely unique and historic location. Kitchen well stocked, comfy living area, comfy beds and the best views ever. Good internet, nice deck area, and it was so fun talking to people coming to check out the lighthouse who were amazed that you could rent the place. We booked 14 months in advance when the listing was already 1/3 booked for the summer, get it early folks!

Sitting on the deck in the early morning and evening was better than any retreat you could ever attend. Serenity and total relaxation comes to mind.

A little slice of heaven.

A room with a view! Spectacular! Enjoying nature at its best. Meeting people from around the world. Seeing the envy on people’s faces when they learn, “you’re staying here”. Wow. Seeing whales and eagles in our own backyard. Even the fog horn was super cool. Ahhhh, this is the life! Can’t believe how lucky we were to find this place. Can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful century home with updates for comfort that do not take away from it's historic charm. Best view of the St. John's harbour and Signal Hill. Love watching the boats come and go. What a fantastic start to our vacation of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Extraordinary Unique Experience

The Light Keeper’s Cottage was an extraordinary unique experience in places to stay. The home is comfortably furnished, updated, clean, and the hosts were extremely responsive from pre-booking to check out. The beautiful view is a one of a kind experience too. Additionally, the entire area of St.John’s was a traveler’s delight with cordial, helpful locals, great food, and many things to do and see.

Wonderful location, cosy and comfortable!

The view directly of the lighthouse and entrance to St. John’s harbour made this home the best place in St John’s! The king size bed was SO comfortable, and all the facilities perfect for our needs. We stayed 3 nights, had the full range of weather from rain, fog (complete with foghorn!), snow (in mid-April!) and then beautiful sunshine, but we enjoyed it all. If we come back to St John’s, we will book again!

Best of St. John's!

This is the only place you should consider if travelling to St. Johns. Being at the entrance to St John's Harbour there is a constant parade of vessels of all types coming and going. The views of the ocean and lighthouse are stunning. Our September weather was a little bit of everything. We even got to hear the little foghorn which lulls you to sleep. The house is clean, the kitchen well-equipped with everything, the king size bed is super comfortable. The location is very close to downtown St. Johns and a convenient base for exploring the region by car. However, we found ourselves just wanting to hang out at "home" at Ft. Amherst. Peter and Nicole gave the impression of being very responsive hosts, however, if you stay here you probably won't need them. Everything is perfect! Thank you for sharing your property with us.

Lighthouse & ship watcher's dream

The ability to watch and hear ships come & go from this fantastic view point is beyond belief. Artania's, cruise ship, one long blast plus two short as she SALUTED the Harbour upon her departure and again as Signal Pilot, the pilot vessel, left her starboard side to return to the Harbour. The fog horn was like music to our ears and upon return one day discovered that we couldn't hear it from the chain's location down the road. It was like the sound was just for us and those on sea ... another great memory. The l/r windows offered views of the Harbour and the Atlantic and the kitchen window, over the sink, the Atlantic too. The "port hole" type window in the side hall provided a perfect photo frame for ships and rainbows too. So glad that my sister found "you" and really enjoyed the view and the location too. Our hosts went above and beyond and their help and feedback was appreciated more than words can say. We definitely enjoyed our stay and would recommend it over and over again. Thank you, thank you very much for sharing this slice of heaven.

A dream of ours!

My husband spent some years serving in the International Ice Patrol, flying in and out of St. John's. He has had a beautiful, framed print of the Amherst Lighthouse on the wall in his office for about 20 years. We were so excited to see the property available as a rental, when we planned our trip. The house is very comfortable, with lots of windows to watch the ships going in and out of the harbor. The kitchen had all the appliances I needed to prepare meals. The supply of condiments and bottled water was an unexpected bonus.

Total Immersion in Nature

A unique experience. Staying at the assistant lighthouse keeper's house allowed us to be a few metres from the ocean. It was a quiet and serene experience. A perfect place for reflection and peaceful coexistence with nature. We watched the ships go past in the harbour and saw the St. John's waterfront and Signal Hill on the rock from a distance. A memorable vacation.

Awesome location and home. Weather was great. One night of rain and foghorn - Hurricane Ernesto passed by. The horn was not bad at all. Sounded a bit like a train in the distance.
