Hartlings Island, Ecum Secum
Hartlings Island, located in Mitchell Bay near Ecum Secum, Nova Scotia, offers a rare opportunity to own a truly private and nature-filled retreat. Spanning approximately 25.4 acres, this remarkable island showcases a diverse landscape of open meadows, mature forests, wetlands, rocky shoreline, and a private sandy beach, creating a setting that feels peaceful, secluded, and immersed in the beauty of the East Coast. At the heart of the island sits an insulated main cottage surrounded by expansive meadowland, offering a comfortable place to gather while leaving room for future possibilities. A second camp, tucked closer to the shoreline, provides additional space for guests or a quiet retreat of its own. Natural beauty is woven into every corner of the property. A mix of coniferous and hardwood trees including birch, ash, maple, and alder create a rich landscape alongside wild raspberries, blackberries, gooseberries, wildflowers, and ferns. Local wildlife, including deer and seals, further enhances the islands natural appeal. With approximately eight kilometres of trails to explore, Hartlings Island invites hiking, discovery, and connection with the outdoors. The calm, protected waters of Mitchell's Bay create an ideal setting for swimming, paddling, boating, and enjoying everything island life has to offer. Accessible by boat from a nearby harbour and located approximately ten minutes from Moser River, thirty minutes from Sheet Harbour and Sherbrooke, and roughly two hours from Halifax and the international airport, this is a rare opportunity to own a private escape where nature, privacy, and possibility come together.
