Known as Tapestry, the five-acre coastal retreat sanctuary overlooks the Bay of Fundy and is surrounded by forests, streams, and protected natural areas. The combination of expansive horizons, coastal cliffs, forest silhouettes, and the world’s highest tides creates a unique foreground environment for nightscape photography. On clear nights, the Milky Way stretches prominently across the sky, while countless stars, deep-sky objects, meteor showers, and seasonal constellations become readily visible to the naked eye.
The location offers excellent opportunities to photograph celestial events above iconic Fundy scenery, including rugged shorelines, historic covered bridges, sea stacks, and coastal vistas found throughout the nearby Fundy Trail Provincial Park. During late summer and autumn, astrophotographers can capture the Milky Way core setting over the Bay of Fundy, while winter brings opportunities for photographing Orion, the Pleiades, and other bright deep-sky targets against crisp maritime skies.
Beyond its exceptional dark skies, Tapestry is a coastal sanctuary for rest, reflection, and possibility. Whether joining us for a retreat or a peaceful coastal getaway, guests are invited to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience the beauty of the Bay of Fundy at a gentler pace.
Guests can enjoy expansive water views, forest trails, outdoor gathering spaces, a restored heritage barn, a sunrise yoga deck, a fire circle overlooking the bay, and a unique outdoor bathhouse featuring wood-fired and soaking tubs beneath the open sky.
Visitors can spend their days exploring Fundy’s coastal landscapes before immersing themselves in an unforgettable night beneath one of New Brunswick’s finest dark-sky environments. Beneath some of the darkest skies in North America, guests can experience remarkable stargazing, meteor showers, seasonal celestial events, and the quiet magic of coastal nights.
