Beautiful location to stay and visit. If you have any mobility issues or would like to walk to dinner, try to stay at the main lodge or lower cabins and not the hillside chalets.

Cute place to stay to start a Cape Breton Tour. We overnighted here before a golf trip at Cabot Links. Our chalet was very functional and cozy. The dinner and live music were excellent and fun! Check out was slow and inconvenient- staff have multiple duties that slowed things down.

This was a one-night stay and so we didn't get to fully explore the area as we also checked in a little late, however, the staff and our rooms were wonderful. The property is lovely. My only complaint was that our room had an odor in it that I couldn't quite figure out where it was coming from so I had a difficult time sleeping. We had dinner there and the food and server were great, however, we found the continental breakfast to be a little lacking.

The stay was great! It was an overnight stay for us. We had a nice dinner at the resort and enjoyed some live celtic music. The food, service and staff were excellent and the staff were friendly and helpful. The only complaint would be that the outside grounds were not kept up, but this could be because we were early in the system and they may not have had an opportunity to get at the spring cleanup.
