Home of Sealy Dan and Seal-ine Dion

Please do not inquiry about dates that are not available on the calendar. Located on the south shore of Nova Scotia approx 10 mins from the historic town of Shelburne, NS. We have a beautiful waterfront property located approx 6 kms down the west side of the gorgeous Shelburne Harbour, just north of Gunning Cove and facing the Sandy Point Lighthouse to our east. You are welcome to sit and enjoy our views from our private 90 ft wharf (a walk of approx 200' from your overnight spot). The water is mostly deep and calm with a predictable daytime breeze. Most days you will be able to spot our resident mammal friends, Seal-ine Dion and Sealy-Dan along with great blue herons, king fishers and many ducky friends. If you are lucky the porpoises may be feeding in our area too. Shelburne Harbour is very deep and thus many large vessels from the Canadian Coast Guard or large fishing trawlers can be observed. We personally do not swim off our shore but jumping off the wharf is a longtime tradition held by many of the locals...lol If you would rather wade in or kayak, the water is accessible at the wharf. For swimming, we prefer the beautiful white sand beach only 9kms further along the Lighthouse route where you might be the only one on it! This is a new home for us and we are still discovering much of the province. What we know for sure is that the area is beautiful, quiet and welcoming. We hope we can add to your experience as you discover the true south shore of Nova Scotia. We are approx 2.5 hrs southwest of Halifax and 1.5 hrs southwest of Lunenburg, the home of the Bluenose II. Your overnight parking spot is grass and gravel, mostly level and not shaded. You will have many surrounding trees, berry bushes and flowering plants. You are welcome to enjoy the views and waterfront from our wharf or wander the acreage. Most mornings are clear but we do get occasional fog that clears with the sunshine. We have a family of deer (5) that may occasionally graze on the property. Inquire if you have a well behaved pet.
