Luxury Coastal Stays at Goose Cove
Designed for Time Well Spent
Simple luxury. Inspired architecture.
Two unforgettable ways to stay.
At Lodging at Goose Cove Retreat, luxury and landscape go hand in hand. Choose between two distinct coastal stays, each designed to bring you closer to the beauty, quiet, and character of Trinity Bight. Thoughtful architecture, private surroundings, and understated luxury come together in a setting made for slow mornings, memorable adventures, and time well spent.
Nestled in a private, fully landscaped enclave, Goose Cove is made for unforgettable escapes—whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a family gathering, or a few unrushed days by the sea. On-site amenities, inspired design, and the quiet ease of the property invite you to slow down and settle in.
Centrally located just minutes from the best that Newfoundland has to offer, Goose Cove puts historic sites, dining, hiking, whales, and icebergs all within easy reach. Then, when the day is done, you can return to a retreat that feels a world away.

Framed by fir trees, berry bushes, open sky, beautifully manicured lawns, and plenty of room for you (and your four-legged guests) to roam, the grounds at Goose Cove Retreat offer a rare sense of privacy on one of Newfoundland’s most beautiful coastlines.
Patios cascade toward the sea, cedar chairs gather around a Newfoundland slate fire pit, a grass badminton court invites easy afternoons outdoors, and a floating wharf offers direct access to Trinity Bay.
The Goose Cove Experience
Goose Cove is your home base for adventure — and your quiet place to return to at day’s end. In Trinity Bay, days can be filled with outdoor pursuits, cultural experiences, fine dining, and nights that end under a blanket of stars.
