We have a package for each season

Which one is your favorite?

We have water adventures in the summer, apple cider-making in the fall, and snowshoeing in the winter. When will you visit?

Make Summer Awesome Packages

Summer is about adventure. It’s about trying new things like yolo boards, discovering waterfalls and hidden coves, or spotting a moose or eagle in its natural setting. Summer is also a great time to discover the one and only Cabot Trail.

When you're done adventuring, enjoy a wholesome meal made from our garden's ingredients and relax in your private hot tub.

Cabot Shores offers so many things to do and see that the time will fly by. So pack up your pets and the people you love and come to our little oasis by the sea for at least two nights, maybe three -- or even more! Summer is awesome!

Fall Cider-Making Packages

Fall is here! And so are our cider-making packages!

As the trees turn all shades of red and yellow, our orchard's apples ripen and sweeten. The crispness in the air can be felt in fall's pleasant temperatures along the shores of Cape Breton Island.

Perfect time for a Cider-Making Getaway!

My boyfriend and I came here on a whim for lunch while in the area. What a pleasant surprise! Loved the unique atmosphere and amazing, friendly people. Could have very well have been the best salmon I have ever eaten. Everything was cooked to perfection. Fresh and tasty. Hats off to the chef. We also had the mussels... huge portion and delicious. We took a walk about the property, one of a kind cabins/domes to stay in.. most of which, if not all had their own hot tub. Even a sauna by the water. We would definitely highly recommend eating here at the bistro even if you are not staying over night. Everyone is lovely.. they even offered to email us the salmon recipe because we loved it so much. My only suggestion to owners would be to get better signage on the roadway, so visitors can find you easier. We passed the place twice before actually finding it. I think if there were two more signs a little up the rd on either side, more people may be able to come visit this hidden little gem. Thanks so much for a great lunch and top-notch service.

Stayed at Cabot shores from October 7th-13th was an unforgettable experience. Stayed in a yurt and very spacious and comfortable. The location along the sea was gorgeous and could hop over to the beach whenever. Kayaked two of those days and could see beaver domes while doing so. Would highly try the food as well very accommodating to all dietary requirements. Recommend the chickpea massala very nice meal! Friendly staff and good accommodation. 5/5

Stopped for lunch and ordered the spaghetti bolognese. Very hearty and lots of meat. A nice satisfying meal. One surprise was to see a mandatory 10% gratuity when paying the bill. Who does this for a party of less than 5?

We had our wedding here over the September long weekend and we honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience! Our wedding was just over 40 adults with some children. The owner and all the staff were very friendly, accommodating and went above and beyond with everything to help us have the best time. Over the weekend staff were knowledgeable with things to do on and off of the resort when asked by our guests. The food was exceptional!! All of our guests could not stop raving about the food that was served- for all meals. Accommodations are rustic and cute, exactly what we were looking for! Many hot tubs arounds the resort as well that can be moved to your accommodation if you request it. The resort is quite large as well with lots of beautiful scenery. Location on the Cabot trail was great as well. We have nothing but positive things to say about our experience here!

"A tree top village with Smurf-like domes rising out of the forest and Mongolian yurts in Nova Scotia? Indeed! Cabot Shores on Cape Breton Island entices you to embrace your nomadic roots and connect to nature. You can stay in one of the colourful yurts or opt for a geodesic dome raised up off the ground. Take in the lake views and the Atlantic waters on both sides, while the smell of cedar fills the air. Be sure to have your camera ready to snap a moose photo (they love it there)."

"Already Planning our Next Visit"

Yurt was warm and cozy. When we arrived there was a fire going and the outdoor hot tub was just right. The main lodge was very welcoming and open. The food at the bistro was absolutely delicious.

~Desiree, Liverpool

"Thanks for the Memories!"

Cabot Shores was the best experience I've had in Nova Scotia. Paul, Barbara, and the rest of the staff are kind, virtuous, and attentive. Their facility is fantastic and will give you a truly unique experience in the highlands.

"Perfect Way to Unwind"

My fiancé and I stayed in the Eagle Dome for a couple days after our wedding. We ate both nights at the restaurant on site and our food was delicious! Breakfast in the morning was also a hit, very fresh and healthy. We rented a hot tub our second night and were able to enjoy it on the privacy was our own deck! So relaxing.

~Jessica, Stratford

"The Food is Amazing"

This is a great place to stay. The food is amazing and it was nice to eat something fresh and new, not the same old boring, unhealthy food so many places offer. I had curry and a choke cherry cheesecake! So good.

Very nice people and a place full of joy ! Stayed 2 nights in the „Eagle dome“ which was really comfy and clean! Had really delicous dinner at the main lodge where paul played some music just for us and had nice conversations whith him and the other staffmembers. Also booked the hot tub at our dome for our last night from where we had a great view on the campfire. Lovely place where you see how much effort they put in every detail.

Very nice place to spend a couple of nights in the nature! My wife and I enjoyed our stay. It might be a good idea to install a heater in the dome as it can get chilly at night.

We had a great stay in the Eagle Dome! We loved watching the sunset and sunrise, and being able to hear the waves from the ocean. Next time we would stay a few more days and prepare a bit better - we weren’t packed for off grid but we made it work. Outhouse was a few steps away, shower and toilet a short walk. We didn’t get the hot tub or use the sauna/other amenities but would certainly consider it next time.

This place is absolutely beautiful! We loved our stay here. I highly recommend it. All the staff are very friendly. The dome was such a unique experience looking at the stars and watching the sun rise. The beach is beautiful and there’s a little swimming spot 2 minutes down the road that we really enjoyed 🙂
