The story
On Fogo Island, a remote outpost off Newfoundland’s coast, Old Salt Box Co. offers a rare blend of heritage and seclusion. The venue consists of beautifully renovated traditional Newfoundland salt box homes, each outfitted with giant picture windows that frame the wild North Atlantic—and, in season, drifting icebergs. It’s an architectural nod to the island’s fishing past, but with modern comfort.
Creator Luke Martin chose this setting for a deeply personal moment, proposing to his partner in one of the homes. As he noted in his video, the property provides "a perfect romantic getaway in one of Canada's most remote locations." That remoteness is precisely the appeal: quiet, dramatic, and intimate, with the landscape itself as the main attraction. For travelers seeking solitude without sacrificing style, Old Salt Box Co. delivers.
