Nestled near Clarke's Mountain, this charming retreat has been carefully restored to blend its original warmth with modern comforts. Unwind on the expansive back deck, take in the views of the mountain from the gazebo or cozy up by a fire pit.

Saltbox cottage
an eye to retaining its original character and warmth while making it functional with some more contemporary features.
The kitchen has a fridge, stove, oven, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, drip coffee maker, and a toaster.
There is also a smart speaker to answer your questions, update you with the news, or serenade you with music.
The first bedroom has a queen-sized futon that can be folded up to make it into a sitting room.
There are TVs in the living room and one of the bedrooms. Although there is no live TV, they do access Netflix, and Roku channels.
The washroom (toilet, sink, and shower) is on the ground floor by the back porch. There are two rooms upstairs: a bedroom with a double bed and a bedroom/den with a queen size futon that sleeps two.
The large back deck overlooks Clarke's Mountain and is accented with a gazebo. In the deck box you will find folding chairs. There is also a fire pit on the side garden.
If you go left on railbed at the back of the property, it will take you to Clarke's Beach Information Centre (museum) in the old station. A little farther down there is a children's playground and paddling beach at the community park.
This is perfect for a place to relax, or a use as a base camp for day trips from which to explore a beautiful and historic part of our province.

This home was in an ideal location to venture out to various sites. Everything you need for your stay was there. Although the stairway going upstairs was narrow, we were aware from other reviews about it. I am over 6’ tall so the double beds weren’t ideal but we still slept well. I was already aware of the double beds before we arrived. We only had our breakfasts there so we didn’t use the kitchen for our other meals. The owner, Jeff responded quickly to a question we had. We enjoyed our stay in Clarke’s Beach.
This was a lovely, early 1900s saltbox house that has just the right balance of modern convenience and rough around the edges. Clean, well maintained, and a perfect base for us to explore Conception Bay North and Trinity Bay. Check in and communication with the owner was very smooth and we’d happily stay here again.

Immaculately clean house with all the amenities needed. Lovely sun room, back deck and gazebo with views to the hillside. Great community to stay as a base for exploring the area.
