Our getaway this summer was beautiful. We had planned on camping, but due to the weather, Mike surprised us with a trip to Boulder Cove Cottages in Shelburne, NS. I loved this place, its beautiful, relaxing and close to my family. My dad and Flo came to visit us at the camp for bonfires and suppers. Dad passed away this winter so I will miss Dad the next time we go but my stepmom, my niece, nephews and other family friends are still there to visit!
This is the outside of our cottage, the Birchtown cottage. There is a BBQ and a deck over looking the water, a fire pit and deck chairs and a picnic table.
The views from our cottage were amazing, the water, wildlife and in this picture, the sunset.
I am highly allergic to cats and dogs, however, I still love them, so when opportunities to visit with them arise, I take full advantage (and Reactin and Benadryl lol). At Boulder Cove they had 3 dogs on site and they were adorable and hilarious!
On a side note if you have bad allergies like me, I did bring my own pillow as the pillows in our cabin were feather and I am highly allergic to feathers…and trees, and pollen, and shellfish.. so pretty much everything lol.
This guy was magnum or knucklehead and he has such a sweet personality and LOVES to fetch anything, even in water.
Something else hilarious is Magnum love/hates squirrels. If you say SQUIRREL!!!! really loud and quick he freaks out and goes hunting for them; and if he sees one..get out of the way lol.
This guy was older and calm and sweet. He also had a butt dragging habit that cracked us up when he would slide or drag his butt down the hills. Apparently this is a habit and not a condition as he was at it again during our second visit a few months later. lol
This guy or girl.. I forget.. was Mercedes. My nephew Alex loved him. He was the quiet one of the bunch but so sweet and gentle.
All of the dogs were trained to not enter the cabins, they were all great with kids and very well behaved. They made the vacation so much better!
The location of the cottages and walking/bike trails were amazing as well. Bikes are provided free of charge and helmets. They had bikes for all ages, in the same room there was also many boardgames too!
Here are a few pictures of the trail.

The fire pit and picnic table out front.
The whirlpool tub where I spent half my time lol. The bathroom had a tub, plus a stand up shower, Q-tips, shampoo, lotion, makeup pads, towels and face cloths and more in the laundry room. The laundry room is free to use but you need to bring soap! I pack the laundry sheets with the soap built in them.
That is Maddy’s hand feeding the chipmunks! The wildlife was everywhere at the cottage. There were loons, bald eagles, squirrels, frogs, and more I’m forgetting but one of my favorite was hearing the loons in the evening or morning.
The actual cottage was so well stocked I was amazed! This was one of the bedrooms. The bedrooms have 4 pillows, tons of blankets and an extra one in the closet, dresser and nightstands on both sides and Kleenex! Lol One room even had a magicbag.
The kitchen had everything! All cookware, utensils, cleaning things, baking sheets, toaster, coffee maker, bbq tools, roasting sticks for bonfire, tinfoil, plastic wrap, parchment paper, microwave, and too much to think of and list!
They had wireless internet and satellite TV as well, but honestly my goal was to spend time away from those things, but the kids enjoyed having it to use in the evenings.
Down by the dock they have canoes, kayaks, a rowboat and lifejackets to use. They even had fishing rods you could borrow! Many extras and no extra cost!
I loved this place it was quiet, peaceful and beautiful. The owner was awesome, very friendly and talkative. She lives on the property with the cabins so its comforting to know someone’s there if help is needed. Her daughter also became like another family member, Angelia and Maddy played together very well and we loved having her join in! Angelia came knocking on the door the minute we got there so Maddy was having a blast the entire time. The owner let Maddy play inside her house even! They played for hours at the playground area and play house.
Overall my review of Boulder Cove Cottages is, I would 100% recommend trying this place out!
