BigSky Sea Shanty: Enjoy Amazing Sunsets and Ocean Views from the Hot Tub !

Welcome to BigSky Sea Shanty. Enjoy countless hours taking in the elevated view and scanning the ocean for whales, seals and seabirds. Spend the evening by the recently upgraded Fire Pit . New lights and outdoor phone charging will make this a Family hang out hot spot! The most gorgeous sunsets happen every evening and will have you snapping picture after picture of their stunning beauty.

We are pleased to offer massage sessions at the cottage conducted by Siesta Massage and Wellness. Contact Karen Perro RMT for booking and pricing at the following email. karen@siestamassage.ca

Enjoy the relaxing hot tub with family and friends. This cottage provides lots of privacy in a nature based setting overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. A truly breathtaking experience that lives up to its name with star filled skies and panoramic coastal scenery .

Located 25 minutes from the university town of Antigonish, where you will find all the things you need - groceries, fuel and restaurants. Use the cottage as a home base for adventures to Cape Breton Island and PEI , with both destinations being a 1 hour drive away. Or explore the many beaches and hiking trails in the local area.

There is so much to see and do in this welcoming part of Nova Scotia. You will never want to leave !
