Cabot Shores

Clean, friendly, and the restaurant food was delicious.

Many niggling concerns that are easily fixed. Property is rustic, but does advertise as a "resort". Overall, accomodations are overpriced like most along the Cabot Trail. No soap or shampoo is made available. Guests don't always bring their own. Uncomfortable futon for bed (in fixed roof accomodation). Just a pitcher of drinking water. Extra charges for amenities such as kayaks - not always the case elsewhere. Extra charges for meals of course, but the dinners weren't exceptional. And the buffet breakfast..... there are photos circulating online.... the "buffet" (in name only) looked nothing like those. In actuality, it consisted of a plastic container of corn flakes, one of yogurt, a basket of small white bread slices, and a plate of scrambled eggs and two sausages delivered by staff. (A pancake could also be had.) Having another staffperson lying on the couch in the dining area reading her cellphone during meals is not particularly professional either.

We stayed for one night at Cabot Shores Wilderness Resort. The staff were very friendly & helpful, and the mac and cheese at dinner was amazing! The garbage/recycling sorting facilities were a plus! We were disappointed in the cleanliness of the room, however, as there were hairs in the bed. We had stayed in quite a small room, so that seemed a bit odd. All in all, it was a good price,

This resort has yurts and domes as well as rooms in the lodge. The yurts and domes do not have their own baths. The lodge rooms where we were did. The room had a double bed and a single. The double was quite comfortable, the single not so much. Our room was on the bottom floor. There was a restaurant attached and the option to have a package with breakfast and dinner. Though we didn't have the package we did eat a breakfast and a couple of dinners. The food was excellent. They have music on Thursday and Saturday nights. We were there on Thursday. There was a Cape Britton traditional music group that was wonderful. There is a trail to a bay of the ocean. It is really quite nice. A combination of camping and lodge resort. It was one of the few places we stayed that had air conditioning and as it worked out was also the only time it was needed

friendly, nice environment, not pretentiuous
