After leaving halifax, we drove though sherbrooke and informed at the tourist office if there were any rooms left in local B&B's. We ended up at St. Mary's, and stayed for two nights in the lodge residence. We had a great time! The location in beautiful with our view on the river. We sat in the garden and spend our... More

I stayed here while traveling through this village, It was in the middle of winter so the room needed to be heated up so it is definitely a very good idea to call ahead. Business is slow in the winter in this area so it is very difficult to keep things heated. The room was small but very cozy and... More

After we missed the 6 pm ferry and had to drive all the way around, we arrived at dusk without reservations. With the main house full, we got a room in the lodge residence across the road by the river. This place was beautifully located right next to St. Mary's River, with large garden, and chickadees landing right on our... More

We couldn't have planned it better if we had researched and booked months in advance. Warm, friendly and welcoming plus reasonably priced. Right outside the entrence to... More

We changed our itinerary after leaving the Cabot Trail from Sydney and Fort Louisbourg as there was a major event happening around Sydney and we didn't want to deal with crowds. I had read about Sherbrooke Village Museum, so we headed out there and hoped we would be able to find lodging. My Internet access was spotty and I could... More

The lodge is conveniently located in downtown Sherbrooke, right next to the... More

After driving along the coast from Halifax we stumbled upon the Village of Sherbrooke and the best living museum we've ever seen. After not being able to tour even half of the museum in 2 hours we decided to stay over-night in the village and pickup the tour the next morning. We were directed to 'the Lodge' (<100 meters away)... More

Literally next door to the open air heritage museum of Sherbrooke (Nova Scotia) lies the privately owned and run St. Mary’s River Lodge. We only had one night there, and while the town itself is a “blink and you miss it” spot in the landscape, the Lodge stuck in mind due to the nice if basic room, the full all-you-can-eat... More
