Generations of Green Bay Hospitality
For decades, MacLeod Cottages has been more than just a place to stay—it has been a sanctuary on the shores of Green Bay where families come to reconnect with what matters. Our roots are deeply planted in the rugged beauty of the South Shore, born from a vision of simple, seaside living.
What began as a collection of rustic coastal escapes has grown into a cherished tradition for generations of guests. Today, under the care of your hosts, Miriam, Jack, and Nancy MacIntosh, we continue to uphold the legacy of warmth and hospitality that has defined this property since its founding. Whether it’s the crackle of a wood-burning fireplace on a cool evening or the first light of a Green Bay sunrise, our story is written in the memories of those who return year after year to breathe the salt air and find refreshment.
Why choose us? Because we believe a true vacation is found in the “small things”. We offer a unique seaside playground that stands apart from modern, hurried resorts
A Place Unto Itself: Nestled moments away from Petite Riviere, our 23 housekeeping cottages offer rare privacy, with most units separated by more than 25 meters of natural coastal landscape.
Authentic Coastal Comfort: Every cottage is a home away from home, featuring fully equipped kitchens and the cozy warmth of a brick fireplace, airtight stove, or wood-burning insert—perfect for those quiet Atlantic nights.
Steps from the Sand: With 19 of our 22 seasonal cottages located directly on the beach or within 500 feet of the shoreline, the sound of the waves is your constant companion.
The Heart of the Canteen: The MacLeod experience isn’t complete without a visit to our famous Canteen. Known for our homemade chowders, local fish, and hand-cut fries, we provide the authentic taste of the South Shore just steps from your door.
Shaped by the Sea: From beachcombing for sea glass and hunting for starfish to exploring the nearby Risser’s Beach Provincial Park, we offer a front-row seat to the best of Nova Scotia’s natural beauty.
Come for the view, stay for the peace, and leave with a soul refreshed. That is the MacLeod Difference.
Step into your next unforgettable escape. From ocean views to charming interiors and outdoor spaces just steps from the beach, our cottages offer relaxed coastal living in every season.
