The Lost Shores Story
Rob grew up in Nova Scotia spending summers at the old family beach property in Half Island Cove. A Waterloo chapter armed him with a mechanical engineering degree followed by leadership roles manufacturing healthcare products. In 2011 he and Beverley moved to Nova Scotia and restored the old family home in Philips Harbour. The Lost Shores brand was created in 2015 to promote their hidden paradise. The name shamelessly borrows from California’s legendary Lost Coast, an area largely settled by Maritimers some 150 years ago.
