Whiff's Lodge

Whiff's Lodge is a stunning barn-style construction with an open basement and 2 floors. Each level offers an amazing view on the Atlantic Ocean. It has been built and named in honor of Irving Weinberg, an anesthesiologist, mentor, and community leader, whose nickname was Whiff. The lodge is a place for community gathering and exchanges.

Each of its 6 bedrooms and suites is equipped with:

  • A queen or double bed,
  • A private three- or four-piece bathroom,
  • Air conditioning, phone, TV & DVD/VC

Chalets

Nestled amongst the trees, Cabot Shores' 4-star Chalets can accommodate 2 to 8 people. They combine exceptional comfort to a genuine feeling of simplicity and rusticity.

Each chalet is characterized by a different roof color and its own specific inside organization and decoration, but they were all created along the same principles:

  • Wide-open spaces with exposed timber for homely family and friend gatherings
  • Beautiful natural materials & high quality furniture & equipments
  • A direct view on the ocean and easy access to the shore

 

The Center is a 55-acre private sanctuary with breathtaking views, a 2000-foot ocean beachfront, and all modern conveniences. Our accommodations in the lodge, four chalets, and a selection of alternative shelters are nestled in this peaceful setting overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. We are respect the environment and we believe in responsible, eco-friendly tourism that gives back to the land, and to the local economy and community.

Cabot Shores is a place for yoga and bird watching, for tasty food and artistic encounters, for canoeing and kayaking adventures and experiential learning. It is a jump off point to the Buddhist area of the Kalapa Valley and the Gampo Abbey, to Alexander Graham Bell's vacation home in Baddeck, and to the superb golf course, ski slopes and hiking trails of Cape Breton Highlands.
