MacPhees Corner (formerly McPhees Corner) is an unincorporated community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in East Hants Municipality in Hants County.

The community was named for the McPhee family, who were early settlers of the area. James, Evan, and Donald McPhee were given a 700 acre land grant in the area on February 6th, 1822.

St. Thomas Anglican church was erected in the area in 1797. A new church building was later built in 1845 and consecrated in November of 1892.
