Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
We stayed in Harbourside cottages in September 2022. David, the host, was more than welcoming. He provided information on all activities available, offered us the use of his kayaks and fishing equipement. These cottages are probably in the best location in Shelburne with a view on the yacht club and harbour. The cottage was extremely clean ,well equipped and comfortable. We recommend these cottages. Great value.

When my wife and I arrived we were met by the owner “Annette”. Annette is the most gracious host making sure she was available should we require anything. We needed nothing as our cabin was spotless, with all the amenities of a five star Hotel ; so relaxing as we enjoyed a glass of wine on the deck. The cabins are located within footsteps to the boardwalk and museums.
If you are looking for a peaceful place to stay in Shelburne, this is the place to be.
Thankyou Annette for making our visit a memorable one.

Highly recommended! Do not stay anywhere else while in Shelburne! This place is beautiful and the owners are both wonderful! The suite we rented was beautiful, clean and perfect for us. And the view was amazing as well. The small touches in every room did not go unnoticed and made it feel very comfortable and like a home away from home. We will definitely be going back!

We arrived Friday afternoon, 6 women on Motorcycles and rented both cottages on the property for two nights. The cottages are very clean and cozy and have all the amenities you need for your stay .They also have a great view of the harbour and you can walk the beautiful waterfront. The hospitality by the owners Annette and Dave was fantastic, they made us feel right at home and also gave us the rundown of places to see while we were out riding. Highly recommend Shelburne Harbourside Cottages and will definitely be back! Thank you Annette and Dave for letting us “take over” for the weekend ✌🏼😎 Tracey M.

Beautiful and quaint accommodations in the heart of Shelburne! Cottage was perfect for 3 of us with two comfortable queen beds and all the necessary amenities. Nice space for relaxing on the deck and Dave went out of his way to show us where to set up our chairs to enjoy an evening glass of wine overlooking the harbour. We visited Shelburne to attend the Lockeport Harmony Bazaar and this was a great place to stay. Thank you for lending us your camping chairs! Central to some very beautiful beaches! Highly recommend!

Can't say enough about the accommodations, the beds were so comfortable, so nice and clean, we were able to watch the sail boats racing. Dave and Annette went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Thanks

The Perfect waterfront Stay is the only way to describe our time this rental. Impeccably clean, well furnished, and ideally located. We spent for days in the 2 bedroom unit and wanted for nothing. Ok, the WiFi was a little weak but it was good enough. Surrounded by views and museums. We kayaked and grilled. Really good Weber grill and tools to use it. Sunsets from the porch, yeah that good.

We stayed in the upper level suite on the waterfront it was well equipped, very clean and the location was perfect. We could watch the boats come and go in the harbour and best of all, we woke up to the breeze gently blowing the white sheers with the sunshine welcoming us to a new day.

Annette and Dave were wonderful hosts; very friendly, helpful, and fun! The cottage was well equipped and cozy. It was so nice to take the laptop outside to do some work and, to mostly watch the boats in the harbour and sip coffee and wine.
