Trees to Tides: Gourmet Getaway

Trees to Tides is a two-night getaway that invites you to move gently between forest and shore — to slow down, reconnect, and savour the wild beauty of Nova Scotia. Stay in a cozy geodesic dome or off-grid treehouse, soak in your private hot tub, then follow the call of the tide to an elegant, gourmet seaside-picnic at the world-famous Blue Beach! There, you’ll be met by Chef Fiona of Molotov Cuisine, who will prepare a three-course seafood dinner just for you — fresh, local, and full of heart. It’s quiet, intentional, and beautiful in all the right ways.

Package Highlights:

• Unwind with a luxurious, relaxing two-night stay in a well appointed geodesic dome or the off grid treehouse.
• Soak in your private hot tub or enjoy your favorite movie under the stars over the outdoor projector. Accommodations also include a private propane fire pit and full-sized propane BBQ.
