Hidden Lake Cottage Retreat: Wood-Fired Hot Tub & Kayaks

Escape to your own private lakefront retreat in beautiful Earltown, Nova Scotia. Enjoy peaceful mornings by the water, afternoons exploring the lake by kayak, and evenings gathered around the bonfire or relaxing in the wood-fired hot tub beneath the stars. This private, cozy 3-bedroom lake house sits and offers a wraparound deck, dock, outdoor shower, and plenty of space to unwind. Perfect for families, couples, and friends looking to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the beauty of lake life.

The Lakehouse at Earltown Lake
Private Waterfront Escape • Wood-Fired Hot Tub • Kayaks • Fire Pit

Come for the lake. Stay for the slow mornings, warm evenings, and memories made around the fire.

Tucked away on 2 private acres in beautiful Earltown, Nova Scotia, The Lakehouse at Earltown Lake is your invitation to slow down and enjoy the outdoors. Spend your morning with coffee on the wraparound deck overlooking the water. Take a kayak out for a quiet paddle. Cool off with a swim. Spend the afternoon relaxing in the sunroom or exploring the property. Then, as evening arrives, heat up the wood-fired hot tub, light the bonfire, and settle in beneath the stars.

Just about 25 minutes from Truro, this peaceful lakefront retreat feels wonderfully removed from everyday life while still being an easy getaway. This is lake life. And it's waiting for you.

Adventure is just beyond the lake house. Earltown and the surrounding North Shore countryside offer beautiful hiking opportunities through forests, hills, and scenic Nova Scotia landscapes, with trails and outdoor adventures to explore throughout the area. In winter, the region becomes a destination for snowmobiling, with nearby trails offering access to the extensive trail network. Whether you're lacing up your hiking boots in the fall or arriving with your snowmobile in the winter, the lake house makes a peaceful home base for enjoying the outdoors in every season.

The lake house is designed for relaxing, reconnecting and enjoying the outdoors, not for large parties or events.

THE WOOD-FIRED HOT TUB

This isn't an ordinary hot tub. The wood-fired hot tub is part of the experience.

Build the fire, let the water slowly warm, and then sink into the hot tub while surrounded by nature.

On cool fall evenings, there's something particularly special about being warm in the water while crisp air surrounds you.

Hot tub + lake + fire + stars = the perfect evening.

Please allow adequate time for the wood-fired tub to heat before use. It is a traditional wood-fired experience rather than an instant electric hot tub. Note that hot tub use is required to adhere to Nova Scotia fire bans.
