This truly unique lighthouse is a special place which is remote, private and surrounded by the ocean. Both sunrises and sunsets are stunning and unparalleled. Being over one kilometer from the nearest house, the night skies are incredible, truly dark skies! Beaches on both sides offer great swimming, snorkeling and diving. You can paddleboard and kayak to a vast archepelago of islands off second peninsula. Or just sit on the deck and enjoy the peaceful tranquility that this seaside house offers.
This will be an Atlantic experience like no other. Imagine, your home tonight is a lighthouse, located on a remote outcrop on the Atlantic shoreline, surf crashing nearby, lovely and secure in your house. Walk upstairs and stare incredibly at the 360 degrees view of Mahone Bay. Walk down to the shore and put on your mask and snorkel and enjoy limitless snorkeling in pristine waters. Start a fire and enjoy the stars. This is the 5*experience of a lifetime. You will be enriched by the experience.
Property Description
The Lighthouse is 3 bedroom and loft, inactive lighthouse which was built in 1989 as a replica of the traditional 44 foot high Nova Scotian wooden lighthouse which at one time dotted the coastline of the province to keep mariners safe. The house has 4 queen sized beds and is spacious, modern and comfortable. There are incredible views in all directions with the pristine waters of Mahone Bay and the open Atlantic Ocean on both sides of the property. The Lighthouse is oriented so that guests can enjoy the sunrise and sunset from the large patio. There is ample parking for 5 vehicles. A large fireplace and unlimited firewood makes it cozy inside when the Atlantic storms rage outside. The beach is a short walk away and there is a spare mooring if you have a boat to bring on your adventure. The towns of Lunenburg (World Heritage site) and Mahone Bay are nearby and offer lots of great tourism including Fisheries Museum, shops, artisans, local distilleries, excellent restaurants and much much more. Consider the spooky ghost tour in Lunenburg!

About the host
Hosted by Steven Morris
We sailed all over Atlantic Canada and absolutely fell in love with Mahone Bay which is large bay with 300 islands, tons of wildlife and warm waters. The property we purchased was originally built in 1989 as a replica Nova Scotia lighthouse with commanding views of Mahone Bay and a good anchorage and we were hooked. The Lighthouse is a modern house in an amazing location, surrounded by water on all sides. The property is equally amazing with at least 150 bird species and many mammals including otters, foxes, muskrat, deer, raccoons, porcupines, squirrels, chipmunks and lots of little animals. Off shore, pay attention and you may see seals, whales, tuna porpoises and dolphins diving and fishing. You are pretty well surrounded by nature.
