Cedar Paradise on Lotus Pond
You have found the most beautiful private rental cottage on the Acadian Peninsula. It simple doesn't get better than this natural paradise. Few places in the area will compare to the serenity experienced on this property, where the alchemy of nature and water come together in harmony to create the perfect oasis rarely found in New Brunswick, let alone anywhere in Canada.
As mentioned, almost everything is brand new such as the sectional couch, the mattresses, the bedding, the kitchen appliances, coffee machine, microwave, tv, etc are new. And when I say the place is fully equipped with everything you will need, you could literally live here for the year and only need to bring your clothes. And if it is not in the cottage, I am right next door at your service.
The kitchen has everything a chef would need to prepare meals and if anything is missing or that you may need, again I am right next door and it would be my pleasure to provide whatever you may need to make your stay the best you have ever had.
The bathroom has a shower with double shower heads and a fully functioning jacuzzi jet bathtub. The bathroom has everything you would need, from bath towels, hand towels, dish cloths, bath and hand soap, toothbrush, shampoo & conditioner, body wash, floss, hair dryer, curling iron, etc. The bedrooms have new quality foam mattresses with encasements, high quality cotton sheets, silk and cotton comforters, lamps, fans, hangers, alarm clocks, etc. The laundry has both a washer & dryer, washing detergent and clothes line outside. The living area has a brand new sectional couch, new 50 inch LG tv with Bell Fibe service and Amazon Prime for movies, a desk and comfortable office chair, books, board games and local literature about the area including restaurants and attractions. Flash lights, fire wood, first aid kit, hand sanitizer dispenser, office supplies, coffee, tea, sugar, salt & pepper, spices, kitchen supplies, iron & ironing board, marshmallow toasting sticks, etc are also included to make your stay comfortable, safe and complete.
The exterior of the property is completely private. The large deck overlooking the natural pond has a propane barbecue with tools, a large patio table with 6 chairs and an oversized umbrella. The surrounding property has a stone fire pit with 5 chairs (lots of firewood available), 2 new hammocks with views on the pond, sitting area on the edge of the pond, Edison lights strung along the trees above the sitting area and....oh yea, the beautiful untouched nature all around you. The private beach is down a lovely path only a few minutes walk away from your front door. Water is clean, sand is soft and plentiful, sand bars are exposed at low tide and you would be hard pressed to see many other people. Don't forget about the romantic spectacular sunset directly over the pond directly in front of the cottage (and from beach). My favourite part of the outdoors experience is the different types birds that visit daily to feast on the gifts from the pond. I enjoy the morning time when the blue herons show up, the evening time when the king fishers and osprey visit, displaying their acrobatic maneuvers and during the day, you will have many families of ducks swimming around as the pond is their summer home during the good weather months. Day or night, the wildlife will be sure to grab your attention and entertain you. The entire time, you will have undisturbed peace and quiet with no sounds coming from road traffic or from the few neighbours. At night, the stars are bright, the sky is dark and the only sounds are coming from the diverse Eco-system of the pond and forest. It is a magical melodic hypnotic symphony of critters from nature.
