Waterfront Acadian Home on Mavillette Beach at Cape St. Marys

Welcome to Foggy Wharf, a traditional renovated 19th century home. We are on Mavillette Beach in Cape St. Mary, Nova Scotia. "VRBO" has our listing as Church Point, however we ar 20 min. south of that. We are approximately one hour south of the Digby/St. John ferry and 20 min. North of Yarmouth/Bar Harbor U.S ferry.
With a spacious interior design and plenty of (chef owned) kitchen space. you will find everything you need to always eat in, or BBQ if you choose. Exploring The Cape is a must. During your stay, take a walk on 1.5 kilometer-long Mavillette Beach, a provincial park, or take a walk to the Cape St. Mary Lighthouse Park, which, according to our kids, is the best kite-flying and picnicking spot around (100 meters)! You can also get in some Tee-Time at 1 of the 4 golf courses all within one hour's drive. With many nearby attractions and nothing but breathtaking views, this one very special place, Foggy Wharf will be a visit to heart of Acadia that you will never forget..
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A kitchenette is outfitted with a stovetop, a microwave, and a dishwasher. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.

Unbelievable Property and Location
This property is unbelievable for it's location, charm, comfort, and owner. I have stayed at many VRBO properties and this is, hands down, the best one I have stayed at. With a lighthouse and beach within walking distance, and overlooking a working harbor across the street, it is absolutely the ideal for experiencing the best of this area of Nova Scotia. The owner has amazing communication and provided an exemplary and low-stress experience.

Magical
We had a wonderful time at Foggy Wharf. The house was immaculate and very well stocked. There was a magical mist that came in with the tides on Mavilette beach that took our breath away. Our dog ran for hours on the hard white sand at low tide. We really got to relax and enjoy the surrounding provincial parks. Cape St. Marys is a special place and the people are very friendly.

Location confusion
Great property, but it's listed on Vrbo as being in Church point, when it's actually almost half an hour drive along the coast road further south. Street address was correct, but town wrong, so confusion when inputting google maps, and would have liked to be closer to Saulnierville, where the cycling event we were in was taking place. On the plus side, owner was flexible about the dog when asked, and we left an extra $50 against extra vaccuuming in appreciation.

Heavenly Views and Beautiful Home!!
Our first experience with a VRBO vacation home and we had a wonderful time. The home is beautiful. The view from the second floor family room and the deck is breathtaking. Enjoyed coffee in the morning watching the sunrise and a glass of wine in the evening as the sun sets. A short walk to the lighthouse for amazing sunsets and picturesque views. The host was exceptionally kind and quick to answer any questions I had prior to arrival. My family had a wonderful stay here. The beach is close by and beautiful. Would definitely stay here again!!

Quiet place next to amazing beaches
This ended up being a great location for us to stay. Fun places to visit within an hour and lots of beaches and light houses. Awesome sunrise and sunsets. Close enough to enjoy Deep Sky Eye, Boatskeg distillery and other great breweries. Also just a short drive from the ferry. Worth the stay!
