What it feels like to stay here
The mailing address says much of it: 5153 East Bay Highway, Ben Eoin, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. The resort places itself in scenic Ben Eoin, offering what it calls lush accommodations surrounded by four seasons of activity. Golf, sailing, skiing, beaches and hiking are all described as being at a guest's fingertips during a stay here. The golf course was laid out by designer Graham Cooke and is billed as one of the finest in Canada. On the ground that means dramatic elevation changes and spectacular views from The Lakes Golf Club. Walkers get their own version of Cape Breton: trails the resort calls unique, with plenty of options across every skill level. When snow arrives, winter activities are available next door at Ski Ben Eoin, or a drive up to the highlands for snowmobiling and exploring. Founders, the in-house restaurant, leans on the flavors of Cape Breton island, where the kitchen promises creativity alongside culinary excellence. Downtime is low-key by design: nestle by a fireplace with a book, take in the mountain views, or sit lakeside on the outdoor patio at any time of year. Rooms, the Island Dog Lodge, stay packages, and heli tours with Breton Air all appear on the resort's own site, and its Book Your Stay pages are where a room here is reserved.
