About this property

Family Friendly Oceanfront Estate

This family-friendly cottage is tucked away on 5 acres of oceanfront property overlooking the mouth of Lunenburg harbour. You will feel a sense of privacy in this "home away from home", far from any noisy roads. Suitable for families of up to 6 people, there are three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Here you will be within easy driving distance to amenities, beautiful beaches, Lunenburg, Halifax and the charming seaside towns that Nova Scotia is famous for.

This heritage cottage is full of old-world character with high ceilings and large windows. The main floor boasts a large, bright living room with plush furnishings. The adjoining kitchen was designed to take advantage of the views across the field to the water beyond. The kitchen is fully equipped and invites you to socialize while preparing any meal of the day. There is a large dining room with a table and seating for 8. The bookshelf in the corner doubles as a secret door leading to the spacious master bedroom. You will sleep well in the comfortable king sized bed and enjoy the convenience of a two piece ensuite bathroom.

Upstairs there are two more bedrooms; one with a queen sized bed and the other with two twin beds. A four piece bathroom, with corner jet tub and shower are shared by these rooms. There is also a four piece bathroom on the main level.

You will enjoy 480 feet of oceanfront that wraps the large grassy field, dotted with apple trees. The flat, natural stone beach is great for swimming or launching a kayak. At the far end of the field, from the top of the bluff, is the perfect place to relax and watch boats and even whales pass by. The Bluenose II is a common sight during the summer months.

Wonderful trip
We had a terrific stay at Wedgewood by the Sea and would not hesitate to stay there again. The location was excellent giving us the privacy and peacefulness we wanted plus the convenience of being less than 10 mins from Lunenburg. We really enjoyed the twice daily visits from the deer and were fortunate to also have the Bluenose sail by the property several times. The house is homey and comfortable with lots of living and sleeping space for our group of 6 adults. The kitchen was very well equipped which was perfect as we opted to cook and dine in a couple of nights. Our host Jeanne was highly responsive both pre stay and during our stay which we appreciated.

Loved It!
This was our second stay at "Wedgewood By the Sea." It's a perfect vacation getaway--great location close to all kinds of wonderful South Shore sites like Lahave, the Ovens, Blue Rocks, and of course a 5 minute drive from Lunenburg. We swim off the little private beach and put our kayaks in at the public beach just down the road. It's blissfully quiet, very private, and the house has all the amenities you can possibly need. Great master bedroom...and a plus is the deer wandering through every day for the drop apples. We'll definitely be going back!

Beautiful home in a beautiful location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 nights at this home. Its location away from the town center yet only 10 minutes from it (and the main grocery and liquor stores) was very convenient. For the few minor items that came up during our stay, our host Jeanne was very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this property when visiting Lunenburg!

The Island
The house and property are in good shape. The kitchen has lovely dishes, pots and pans, cutlery. If you're staying for a long time there is not a lot of space in the kitchen cupboards for dry goods. We had to improvise and that worked for us. The bedroom on the main floor had a very comfortable bed. Lots of room in the house for a large group. A brand new BBQ was available for our use. Watching the deer come almost to the door every day was a bonus. Thank you for allowing us the privilege of staying in your lovely home.

Family Week at Corkum's Island
A beautiful, large property with resident deer who wandered around oblivious to their visitors. Great views (including of The Bluenose on her sails out of Lunenburg Harbour), oceanfront deck and quiet and peaceful. The house worked very well for my elderly parents and siblings, well equipped with everything we needed. Great location close to Lunenburg, LaHave and within 1/2 hour of several beaches. We would definitely consider a repeat visit if in the area again.
