Shelburne has always been different, unique, and deeply authentic—and now, it’s home to the Roseway River Scotian Spa.

We have taken the timeless traditions of a Nordic spa and enhanced them with the soulful connection of a kitchen party—that effortless feeling of togetherness, warmth, and belonging—and brought it all deep into the forest for our brand-new cottage enhancement experience.

Come for our traditional public session, or—for the ultimate retreat—book the whole Scotian Spa all to yourselves for solo peace, romantic couples' getaways, or private gatherings with friends and family, thats the Scotian Spa difference!. How you experience it is entirely up to you.

Your preferred experience gives you access to our woodland riverside sanctuary rituals:

The Living Room Lounge: Unwind above the winding river before gathering around your private tabletop fire—just bring your favourite bites to grill, and we’ll supply the kitchen prep space and gear for the ultimate open-flame feast.

The Studio: A dedicated space to unwind—treat yourself to a relaxing massage, melt away tension with deep tissue work, or experience the restorative stretch of Thai yoga. It’s also a great place to practice mindfulness or meditation on your own or with a friend or simply curl up with a book and absorb the forest right outside your window.

The Sauna & Cedar Tub: “Reflect” in the heat of our traditional sauna, while the incredible cedar barrel hot tub is ready for your total relaxation.

Hillside & Riverfront Decks: Find your private corner perched high on the hill or settled right by the river.

The Hearth: This is where the kitchen party transitions outdoors. Gather around our featured fire table, which transforms into your very own open-air cooking table to share good food, warmth, stories and build forever memories.

Single day passes will be open soon and full group bookings are now available by contacting the office!

More about our forest bathing, meditation rock wall, labyrinth, and tree top lounge will be coming in the spring. Roseway River Cottages and Scotian Spa its time to feel authentic again.

Halifax is growing, and so is Shelburne NS, but true Nova Scotian warmth doesn't change. Welcome to The Scotian Spa.

As the city moves faster every day, we wanted to build a space that protects what makes this province truly special: deep connection, rural stillness, and unforced authenticity.

The Scotian Spa is a rural thermal experience built entirely around authenticity and choice. We believe rejuvenation shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all, so we’ve created a space where you can design the exact rest your mind and body needs today.

For decades I've enjoyed the healing and self care that traditional top end Nordic Spa's offer. So we brought this to Shelburne County and the cottages that so many have enjoyed for over 25 years now.

Here, the choice is entirely yours:

Choose your stillness: the river brings stillness in one moment yet rushes just around the corner, trace the shoreline and find your space or sit in deep, uninterrupted mindfulness along our meditation rock wall. Find yourself in the trees with our forest bathing and find your favorite story telling tree.

Choose your connection: Step into our indoor quiet studio where you can also enjoy a massage, stretch therapy or even thai massage. Lay on one of our yoga chairs and feel the support in your back allowing you to breath into tension and release it all with one exhale, or step outside into the crisp air to relax in lounge chair, sit in one of many sitting areas and enjoy the sounds of nature. You may even see our matriarch deer, limps and one of her family and friends.

Choose how you arrive: Come alone for solitary reflection with one of our access passes, or bring your inner circle for a dedicated half day or full day private group experience.

Our outdoor hearth is a modern adaptation of the traditional East Coast "Rest Phase," giving you the ultimate flexibility in how you unwind. Wrapped in a luxury robe with the music of your choice playing softly in the background, you have the freedom to use the space as a peaceful, crackling fire table, or turn it into a true Nova Scotian cookout under the stars in nature. It isn’t a loud party—it is a space for calm conversation, gentle laughter, and real connection.

This is how we imagine restfulness, tranquility, and the deep relationship between nature and the people who matter most.

We are proud to be part of the all new Eastern Shelburne County. There is so much more coming with new businesses and the ability to come explore and make lifetime memories.

This is Authentic Nova Scotia, with elevated deep rooted curated or at your leasure experiences.

This is Roseway River Cottages and Scotian Spa.

Good morning. As we approach a transition between summer and fall, labour day gives some of us a new found tranquility and others a return to education and more work. Starting next week we will begin to introduce our new Scotian Spa.

We have received so much response on this new wellness offering in Shelburne County and to our property.

This week we will introduce you more to our rituals, experiences and everything else.

Let's start with this, to be Scotian is to live a life shaped by the sea, where days spent exploring rugged coastal wilderness naturally flow into warm, connected kitchen parties. It is a perfect harmony of untamed Atlantic nature and an incredibly welcoming community spirit, where music, fresh seafood, and shared stories turn strangers into family.

Here it doesn't matter if you are born here or came by choice, its how we live in unison with ourselves, our loved ones and nature.

Balance isn’t something you stumble upon; it’s something you cultivate. Just like two simple stones finding their center, true wellness happens when we take a moment to quiet the noise and reset.
