Probably one of the best in Breton island.

10/10 Excellent

My wife and I had a wonderful week at this resort. All staff we connected with were extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and the beds were very comfortable. We would love to go back again and highly recommend this property.
Gilbert, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Very friendly staff, beautiful views,a golfers paradise. Not much to do unless your a golfer, room was big with great views, the only drawback was no fridge in the room.
Lovely golf course
Great view from room
daniel, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Stayed here because it was the last room available in this area of Cape Breton. A little farther from Sydney than I would’ve wanted, but that’s not their goal. Facilities are very clean and shower was great! Easy parking and super convenient for golfing and skiing. Great mini condo with completely full kitchen. Nicer than my apartment!
Ethan, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very happy with this find, that we booked a 2nd night. The only thing we found was that golf for non Cape Breton residents was expensive. I think that if you are staying at the hotel, golf should be the same rate as residents. Otherwise, it is a wonderful location to lay our heads from our travels as well as a good spot to call home base for a couple days.
Suzanne, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

stayed 4 nights Jul 2025 Loved our 2 Bedroom chalet everything was Fantastic. Only issue I have is the Bathroom shower head, water was not coming out of all the holes.
Debbie, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Our room was large and fairly comfortable. The sleeper sofa mattress was somewhat uncomfortable for our teenager as the springs were poking through.

I loved staying here and the staff was amazing.
Lauren, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

I arrived after dark and had phoned for directions. I missed the symbol sign and was looking for the full name. Finding the chalet in the dark took a little extra time, knocking on B when I had A. A group of women were in the golf room collecting prizes. I did not know where to check in. Finally the person in the golf room stated check in was there and after everyone got their prizes I was able to check in. Chalet was lovely.
Judy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Beautiful setting but needs update in decor , mattress.Mattress and pillows should have protective covers
linda, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The chalet was beautiful. Super clean, nice decor and beds were comfy. Water pressure was a little low but not terrible. Tons of parking( although it was offseason there would still be more than enough even if fully booked). would definitely stay again.
Lorence, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Quiet, p

The room was spacious, with a sofa, king bed, fireplace and a patio door, with access to the parking area. Very relaxing andba nice quiet place to stay. I wish it had of had a mini fridge.
1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Great area. Friendly staff. However Expedia charged me an extra guest fee they couldn’t help me with. We got the wrong room. But was fixed. The big disappointment was no housekeeping!!! No beds were done no trash cleaning. Toilet kept running had to lift lid and play with chain to fix it. Also no breakfast included. Don’t think I’ll be coming back to this place.
