The host canceled this reservation 25 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Carly was a wonderful host! My girlfriend and I made a relatively late reservation and she was kind enough to take us in anyway, even with our late night arrival. We are grateful to her for doing so. After we returned from our morning activities, she was kind enough to give us detailed information on things to do and places to visit. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering visiting Grand Manan!

We had a great time at Carly's on Grand Manan Island. Her listing in Seal Cove has a great view of the ocean and it's close to everything. The room was very spacious and clean. The house also has great shared space! I would highly recommend Carly's place and Grand Manan Island!

Carly came and found me as I had written down the wrong street # and was standing by my car wondering what to do next. The house is up a hill and I found it difficult to back the car out.The room was fine and the bed comfortable although it would have been nice if it was off the floor on legs or whatever. There was no mention of breakfast and I thought that was automatic in a bnb.

Carly was very welcoming and friendly - and also a great resource for places to check out and things to do in Grand Manan. She was easy to talk to and made sure I had everything I needed. Her home is very clean, charmingly decorated to reflect the surroundings of Grand Manan, and situated in a great location. The bedroom is very spacious with lots of natural light and pretty views. I'd stay again in a heartbeat!

Great stay in Seal Cove! About 15 minute walk to the beach which I did every morning with my dog, which Carly was kind enough to let stay there too!

Really nice contact and beautiful location. The room looks like on the pictures, with ocean view, the bathroom close to your room. Quiet and charming place. Carly and her boyfriend are really nice hosts, I enjoyed my stay very much. I absolutely recommend this location :)

Carly has a lovely cosy home and made us feel welcome and comfortable there. We enjoyed our short stay.

I loved staying with Carly and Owen - they were extremely welcoming, lovely to spend time with, and very helpful hosts. Grand Manan Island was delightful, and my only regret is that I couldn't stay longer! If you love island life, relaxed ambience and lovely friendly people, then I highly recommend staying with Carly and Owen!

I am now convinced that Red Herring Cottage, and Grand Manan, represents everything that is great in this world. The stunning views, adventurous hiking trials, and friendly locals make this a must stay. My wife and I celebrated our honeymoon at Red Herring Cottage and Debbie and Charlie welcomed us with open arms... literally. The cottage was equipped with a full kitchenette, snacks, and even a bottle of wine for us. The exquisite architecture and interior design of Red Herring Cottage–paired with the high-end finishes and bedding feels like you're staying at a five-star hotel. The beautiful floor to ceiling windows overlook Pettes Cove and is accentuated by Swallowtail Lighthouse. Spend a few moments lounging on the many adirondack chairs and you will be greeted by the abundant marine wildlife of the Bay of Fundy. All-in-all, the Red Herring Cottage was a trip of a lifetime, and that's not an understatement.

Deborah was so welcoming and gracious we felt at home instantly! Her cottage is beautifully designed and a joy to be in. The view out the window wall is stunning! We spent four nights there and would have stayed a full week if we could have. It was our sixth visit to the island. We love to hike and explore and there's no end to it there. I highly recommend staying there!

Red Herring Cottage was our first experience with airbnb, and it set an exceptionally standard for future travels. The cottage alone would merit rave reviews -- exquisitely designed, furnished in a way that is both aesthetically pleasing and comfortable, meticulously cared for, and well equipped. The cottage celebrates its setting; views of the Bay of Fundy and Swallowtail Lighthouse ever present, thanks to windows, windows, windows that also make the cottage feel far more spacious than its size would suggest. Then there were our hosts, Deborah and Charlie -- thoughtful, congenial, and generous -- who put great care and attention into our four-night stay and always wanted us to experience the best of Grand Manan. We arrived on this remarkable island on the cusp of tourist season, so some restaurants and businesses were closed, but good food, arts, and crafts were still available. The island, of course, was the great, never-ending wonder, with changing tides, extensive hiking trails, sweet air, and the profoundly welcome absence of noise and neon. We came away restored. How could we not hope to return?

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our three night stay at The Red Herring Cottage. Deborah greeted us with open arms (literally) and we could not get over the personal touches that she added. A gorgeous flower bouquet and chilled prosecco to welcome us on our first night of our honeymoon, and local and honey and bread for breakfast were just a couple of the little details that made us feel so welcome. The cottage is GORGEOUS with an amazing view of the Swallow Tail light and very comfortable for the two of us to lounge, cook casual dinners, and just relax. The cottage was a bit closer to the main residence than I had imagined but we still felt private, and in fact only saw our hosts when Deborah brought us fresh blueberries. I'm a bit of a clean freak so I was pleased to see that this cottage was immaculate upon our arrival. All in all a really lovely retreat for a couple looking to get away and just "chill" and with lovely hosts.

Imagine the fog beginning to clear and you simply drive off the 1.5 hour ferry ride and drive down a quaint country road five minutes away to arrive at Red Herring Cottage which you booked based on visuals and it is "beyond what your expectations were". Well it happened. The cottage is stunning, the view - a picture perfect postcard, the community - story book material and the overall experience .... a hidden magical gem. (but shhhh....don't tell anyone, because then we would have to share) A must on your travels both for the 5 star accommodation disguised as cottage to the mystic of an Oceanside community. Deborah, Charlie and their precious "fur girl" Sadie open up their hearts and home.

Red Herring Cottage was perfect. Hosts Deborah and Charlie created an amazing experience and made us feel right at home. The place was immaculate, the views were amazing and I can't say enough about our hosts' attention to detail. From chocolate's on the bed upon checking in to great recommendations for sights and dinning around the island Deborah exceeded our expectations. When you dream of the perfect airbnb experience, this is what you're dreaming about.

Nous sommes resté une semaine au Red Herring cottage et tout était super! La maison est comme sur les photos. C'est beau, chaleureux, accueillant et confortable... jusque dans les petits détails. Nos hôtes nous attendait à notre arrivée pour nous souhaiter la bienvenue et nous faire faire le tour du propriétaire. Tout au long de notre séjour ils ont été de bons conseils (choses à voir et à manger, randonnées à faire...) et discrets. Un accès direct à la plage nous permet d'aller voir les vagues (et parfois les phoques!) de plus près. La vue est splendide et les 2 chaises au bout du terrain nous ont permis d'apprécier encore plus les levés et couchés du soleil! L'île est charmante (comme les habitants). Nous serions resté une semaine de plus si cela avait été possible! C'est un endroit splendide à découvrir! Merci Deborah et Charlie pour votre accueil!

It's difficult to think who could possibly come away from a stay at the Red Herring Cottage anything less than happy and rested. Such a tasteful, elegant, and comfortable cottage with unrivaled views and easy access to lovely trails and beaches. Top marks to Deborah and Charlie, who were tirelessly gracious and attentive and made us feel at home right away. 10/10 would recommend this spot for anyone looking to reconnect with nature, have a romantic getaway with someone special, or take a break from the over-stimulating mainland world.

The location was great although it takes 2 ferries to get there. One for 1-1/2 hrs, the other 1/2 hr. But once you get there , you have your own piece of heaven !! Quiet, secluded and relaxing. The beach is seconds away from the front porch and there you will find beach-combing heaven! Sea glass, urchins, shells, etc. The house is very well supplied with soaps, towels and a great kitchen full of pots, plates, glasses. Everything you could think of and more!! Vanessa was wonderful and very helpful and attentive. Will definitely go back for a longer stay. More areas to explore!!

We were greeted by the hosts when we pulled into the driveway. The hosts were staying right next door in the blue building you see to the right of Blue Heaven. They escorted us inside and gave us info regarding the heat. The screened in porch had a million dollar view of the bay, boats, birds, and awesome sunsets.

Our hosts left us the keys and the door unlocked. Judy happened to be home to greet us. We felt welcomed and comfortable from the start. The beauty of the view left us speechless. We kept high 5-ing ourselves for such a great place to stay.
