Liscomb Mills, Nova Scotia

Reminder:  You can click on all photos in this blog in order to enlarge them.

Another couple of days of unfavorable weather was predicted (Fog, rain, and 20 -30 knots winds on the nose).  So, we decided to not punish ourselves unnecessarily.  We moved upstream to Liscomb Mills.  It is a government run resort/lodge with a small dock (two boats)  for cruising boats.  But it has hiking trails, showers, wifi, bar, and restaurant --- what more could a person want when waiting for bad weather to pass.  Unfortunately, we stubbed (crunched) "Evergreen's" toe on a very solid rock when we approached the dock at low tide.  The rock was not on the charts or mentioned in the guide books.  The photos are of the river and another boat coming in.

  1. I am glad you discovered Liscomb Mills Resort. I visited there almost exactly 9 years ago (10 July 2002) and found the facilities relaxing and interesting, almost as though the government were taking a special interest in our comfort. The rates were very reasonable at that time.

    I tried to find a reference for "Evergreen Rock" in my guide books (including Loveridge) but no luck. Is the rock very close to the western edge of the floats (I vaguely recall the dock master mentioning something like that)? Of course there is no way to know that in advance. You are not alone in this regard, as I have 2 rocks in the Bahama Islands named after Kerry Deare in Steve Pavlisis' guide books. Stay safe and warm.
