Enjoy the comforts of home in nature — including real toilets, showers, and kitchen.
Andromeda House sits on 30 beautiful acres, stretching from our waterfront to the top of the Mountain. Perched dramatically above the Annapolis Basin, the views here are truly awe-inspiring—and only get more breathtaking as one explores higher up on the property.
Our path network is maintained for access to the very satisfying “Upper Lookout”. This path continues and you might just find your hosts working on this area. There are also various mountain access roads provide terrific hiking and mountain biking opportunities. Photography, rock hounding, mushroom hunting and star gazing are ideal activities. Birders in particular should be pleased.
The property has been in our family for generations and an old sled path winds through and up it. We are also developing a spring-fed swimming pond this summer.
Currently, we have new fields of sunflowers and wildflowers to attract pollinators—bumble bees, hummingbirds and monarch butterflies are especially abundant here. Wild apple trees abound and there is a stand of old maple trees we will be tapping next spring. Beyond that is a mature Beech and Poplar forest.
We are within walking distance to Victoria Beach, an authentic fishing village nestled at the base of the north mountain and surrounded by the Annapolis Basin, the Digby Gut and the Bay of Fundy.
Did we mention the views?Guests will have the entire Andromeda House and 30 acres of property to themselves. This vintage 1980's mini-home has air conditioning, heating, bathroom with tub and shower, fully equipped kitchen and a deck, with a gas bbq, that has an absolutely spectacular Ocean view. Private, serene and peaceful, this property offers trails and various lookouts and includes two ponds. Wild flower gardens, stone sculptures and various streams offer endless exploration of the waterfront to the top of the mountain. Wildlife abounds, from sea life such as our local pod of porpoises to bobcats and birders especially will fall in love with the many species of birds. Hummingbirds and butterflies are

As advertised Chris’ site was a simple rustic site. We enjoyed cooking and eating around the picnic table and fire pit he provided while taking in the beautiful view fro the bluff over of the Bay of Fundy below, watching as the lobstermen went about their business. . Chris came out to greet us and to say goodbye and was helpful and generous,
