Cozy & sweet
This was a last minute booking as we were on our way back from Cape Breton/Cabot Trail to Yarmouth CAT. Didn’t want to do the whole drive, but couldn’t find vacancy.
The chalets were a very welcome surprise!
Although off the beaten path, the view the next morning was spectacular!

Clean room
The room was clean, and no carpet, a bonus. The Roku tv had no instructions and we couldn’t find the power button for 1/2 hour. It was on the middle back, then the stations wouldn’t load so we just turned it off.

This was the most beautiful place I've stayed in Nova Scotia. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and well kept. The staff are welcoming and friendly. Everything was clean. We stayed in the lodge/room. The pool and hot tub are very clean and great size! We went on an hr long hike around the property and could have walked much longer. The views are breathtaking! I cannot wait to book our next stay! Thank you so much for this experience!

A little gem hidden in Pictou Country with something for everyone. Far enough from local towns located on the highest point around the area, but only a 15 min drive to Pictou or New Glasgow.

First time staying there and it was very relaxing and quiet ( we stayed in a room) all though the pull out sofa was very uncomfortable to sleep on. They had one BBQ to share for all rooms which wasn’t ideal, wish they had at least 2-3.

2/10 Poor
Aug 6, 2023
Unorganized and poor customer service.
The property was overbooked and did not honour my online reservation. They accommodated for 1 of 2 nights and owned up to the mistake, but unprofessionally complained about their online booking service and did not make any attempt to find or recommend other accommodations to extend our stay in the area.
We wasted a cooler of food we brought to cook on the bbq/kitchen and never got to enjoy any of the amenities on-site as planned.
This seems like a nice place to unwind and relax, but I would not recommend booking here for less than 3 nights. And if you book online for a short weekend stay, check and double check with the property before arrival that they actually have a place for you to sleep.
