What's The Quality of The Lodge:
You are living in a lodge constructed with local wood, full of huge windows looking out on St. Anne's Bay in one direction, fields and gentle hills.
There is a peacefulness being by the water and being in proximity to birds and moose and wild flowers in season.
The place is informed by local guides and experts and staff, who help you get your day started with tips on where to go or even where to walk or swim or boat, without leaving Cabot Shores itself.
Return late afternoon for a cool drink at our bar or out on a deck. Meet other friendly guests who come from the world over to visit Cape Breton. Many interesting guests somehow are drawn to Cabot Shores.--filmmakers, doctors, lawyers, musicians, business people, just plain folk who have good stories to tell--in fact great stories and memories are guaranteed.
It's 4 Stars + An Intangible Relaxing Element:
What our guests say is that Cabot Shores Lodge is 'the jewel of the Cabot Trail.' (Ruth Williams, writer)
Imagine a place where you can challenge yourself by day, go out besides the Cape Breton Wilderness, even if it's a gentle kayak trip along the Lake and Brook. Or a more challenging hike to Indian Brook Falls.
And you have 4 star elegance at night--great food, attentive staff, friendly guests and fun, live entertainment.
But you can relax. No pressure. Not much formality. You'll feel like you belong.
Jump off to the Rest of Cape Breton:
You are at the gateway of the Cabot Trail and right in the neighborhood are talented artisans: leather and woodworkers, potters, iron work artists, photographers, even a lothier making the musical instruments used in local Celtic bands.
Kitchen parties and impromptu music happens at Cabot Shores.
So do barnfires, barbeques and even guest gourmet chefs visiting, such as Michael Johnson, himself a guest, and winner of best chef in St. Louis 3 years running.
You are close to the Gaelic College, to Baddeck, to The Cape Breton Highlands and to the Transcanada.
Best of all, you are right on the Cabot Trail, housed in a destination you don't really have to leave but located at a point where you're the best of Cape Breton is available to you--natural and cultural adventures, and a sense of well-being we help to cultivate in the guests we love to serve.
