“The chalet is beautiful (more than we expected). We were provided everything we needed. The staff were friendly and excellent, the cake and flowers were a wonderful touch making us feel welcome. I would recommend this location to everyone, can’t wait to go home and show pictures. Our anniversary was extra special celebrating here and we look forward to coming back. We would like to spend every anniversary as our 25th”
“Thanks for a beautiful week-end. I hold the image of the shimmering frozen pond, the trees, the ocean and vast sky in my mind and it brings deep comfort. Hope the work is going well.”
“Wonderful food, dancing, fiddling and swimming. It was unique to swim in the ocean and then wash the salt off in the brook!”
“Enchanting place… still hope to see a moose… yummy food… will be back.”
“George Abetti is a ‘Guide’ in this endeavor, someone passionate about building and great at it! He inspired master carpenters and he taught younger ones what it is truly to apprentice to a master builder and a great man”
“I had one of these magic experiences in Cabot Shores when we went up the Indian Brook. We canoed, walked and swam up to these amazing waterfalls. Everything was just right. There were wild strawberries on the banks and great swimming holes, and we even spotted an eagle. It was just beautiful. A real awakening of the senses.”
“I absolutely loved my stay at Cabot Shores. The quality and comfort of the cabins are incredible while the facilities provided everything we could need. I was also overwhelmed by the natural beauty of the area. Rich in culture and scenery, Cape Breton is a must-see in the Maritimes. I had a most tranquil and wonderful time.”
“I felt a tremendous draw to Cabot Shores due to it’s beautiful location in Cape Breton, with truly outstanding views of the Ocean and Smokey Mountain just a short drive away. I was able to feel a strong sense of comfort in the well-built cabins – it was a thrill to be so close to nature. Continue to keep the natural integrity of the property alive as it is undoubtedly one of the greatest aspects of Cabot Shores.”
“I spent a very relaxing weekend in Cabot Shores. I always felt at home and comfortable. There always seemed to be something exciting to do and where better to do it then amidst wonderful people and a backdrop of both mountains and ocean? Thanks so much, I would come back anytime.”
“What a wonderful place- whether nature hiking, cruising the Cabot Trail or simply sitting on the porch drinking coffee and clean air- magnificently peaceful vibe! ”
“Paul what a wonderful place you have. Can’t thank you enough for having me and my family here. I just told the staff and John they are great people. We will always be a part of you all now.”
“An ideal spot for camping- unique from other “campsites” in the area where you feel more in touch with traffic rather than nature. The campsites are wonderfully peaceful, spacious and secluded, and the staff very welcoming. Thanks for the best night of our trip!”
“Rustic and “Dream Home,” very well appointed cabins with a wonderful view, tranquil and worlds away from a busy world. Thank you much for sharing this little oasis. ”
“It was great meeting you guys, Keith I & II, Doris, Roger, Shadow, Sharon and Paul. It was a blast hanging out with you! We appreciate all your hospitality and the lovely place you are building. Thanks! ”
