Bear River Lighthouse Tours

Bear River Lighthouse was constructed to help guide vessels through rough waters. Still an important local landmark today, it's sure to have some stories to tell about sailing adventures and tragedies.

This longstanding beacon is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Smiths Cove. But Bear River Lighthouse isn't the only drawcard in the area. Digby Pines Golf Resort, Smith's Cove Beach, and Bear River First Nation Heritage & Cultural Centre are some other worthwhile sights close by.

7.2/10 Good! (175 reviews)
There was no soap or shampoo. There were a number of fruit flies in the room. It seemed like these were for long term rentals. Monthly perhaps as there was a freezer in the room. It was ok but it was not what i expected for a motor inn. The bathmat was moldy and i was uncomfortable taking a shower.the tv was outdated. There were 2 tvs in the room. They had cooking utensils and cutlery in the room but it needed to be washed.

9/10 Wonderful! (23 reviews)
Room was nice and clean. It was very quaint and charming on deer island which we had to take a free 20 min ferry to get to from L’Etete. Restaurant on the ground floor called Cap Sill had great lobster. The island is very picturesque and we even saw 2 deers during our walk. I’d recommend it.
