We definitely recommend staying at the Keltic Quay Cottages. We were snowmobiling and this was the perfect place to stay. We snowmobiled all day and came back to the fireplace turned on and a lamp on. Everything we needed was in the cottage. All you need is your food. The cottage was very clean. We will definitely be back. Keith and Laurie

Perfect Girls’ Getaway Enjoyed our stay at beautiful Keltic Quay; it’s a perfect getaway. Check in was seamless & service was top notch. Any request was answered immediately. Definitely 5 ⭐️

Great trip Everything was lovely and the view was incredible. Well equipped rooms and the lodge games room was a real bonus.

We just relaxed ,it was the pefect spot for that. WE recently stayed at Keltic Quay . We stayed for 3 days and enjoy every minute of the stay. The common room has so much to offer. I think there is something for everyone. It
is very close to everything that Whycocomagh has to offer. The Hosts were very friendly very much enjoyed our chat with them. Looking forward to going back.

Would come back 😀 - Beautiful 😞 - Nothing

Spent the weekend at Keltic Quay Cottages with some family members for my birthday. Had an amazing time - loved the water views from the kitchen table, the spacious rooms, and the overall charm of the cottages. However the real gem was the lodge! Large, beautiful fireplace, lots of games (loved the crib table), and live entertainment both nights we were there. Huge shout-out to Sheila and Randy for making our stay extra special and teaching us some new games! We will definitely be back ❤️

My wife and I have stayed many times at the Keltic Quay Bayfront Lodge and Cottages. We normally stay for several days at a time and really appreciate the easy booking, and check-in plus the friendly staff. The Cottages all provide enough essentials for you make lunches and meals if you so desire. Although all of the above mentioned is great what really makes Keltic Quay Bayfront exceptional is the the peaceful view out over the Whycocomagh Bay from each unit although we personally think the view is just a bit more spectacular from the upstairs units. Highly recommend this accommodation whether for a night, week or even longer you will not regret a visit.

We arrived at night time and boy were we blown away by the view! We could see the moon reflecting onto the water and the stars shining bright! The following day we woke up early to see the sunrise. The angle was blocked a bit by the mountains but we were able to see it climb up and over it after a few minutes. It’s a super quiet location that comes equipped with a fully blown kitchen and bbq on the porch. The entire place was clean for a place that has lots of bugs and the bed was so soft I just fell asleep right away

We very much enjoyed our stay at Keltic Quay. We say hundreds of Cormorants and experienced them all taking off on their migration. The views were spectacular and the accommodations were very good.

Beautiful. Just gorgeous! All suites are right on the water front with decks facing the lake. What a magical place!

Outstanding stay! 😀 - The location is absolutely magnificent! The suites are very nice. The lodge and the outdoor fireplace add a lot of value. 😞 - It's almost too small a thing to even mention, but the toiletries provided are not worth it. You will need to get your own bodywash, shampoo, soap ,conditioner, and lotion. On one occasion the cooking fumes from the downstairs unit were so intense I would have thought I'm right in their kitchen. That only happened once so not sure if that party didn't use their exhaust fans or what.

😀 - Perfect location, super friendly staff….amazing location right on the water’s edge.

Did not want to leave. 😀 - Location was exceptionally beautiful. Super friendly staff. Wonderful views of the lake. Modern facilities that are clean and very well maintained. 😞 - There was nothing I did not like.

Great views, comfortable and clean. 😀 - Great views over the lake, very comfortable beds and lounge room, modern and clean. 😞 - Complete lack of cooking essentials - oil, salt and pepper etc. Don’t provide a kitchen if you don’t want people to actually cook……No dishwasher in our upstairs unit.

C'était notre 2 visites à Keltic Quay et nous y retournerons certainement.

This is a great place to stay in Cape Breton. The managers are friendly and they and the staff are very accommodating and helpful. The units are spacious and conducive to relaxation. The water view is lovely, and the free watercraft and amenities available at the reception area add value and fun to the stay.

New, well equipped cottage. We went as a family of four. All loved it.

We stayed for one night in upstairs room. It was very clean and had well equipped kitchen. |We enjoyed our stay but a few niggles-|We found climbing in and out of the large bath difficult to use the shower but if you are younger you may have no problems. The stairs were steep and open to the kitchen although it did look as though there are fittings for a stairgate for young children. |The bed was very high and had a mattress where if your partner moved it woke you up so we didn’t have a great nights sleep. ||It was a great view but sitting on the balcony the rail obscured the horizon. |I would recommend a downstairs room with no stairs and a better view.

Beautiful setting. Unfortunately, sitting on my upper level balcony and enjoying the lovely view was not very enjoyable due to the person in the unit below me smoking outside, directly under me.

Beautiful location. Check in and out can all be done by phone , the property is immaculate. Our cabin was clean, modern and equipped with everything one could need including a porch with a view to die for. I highly recommend you check this place out next time you are in Cape Breton 😀

😀 - Sehr schöne Location, Gemeinschaftsraum mit Billard, Bar und anderen Spielen. Appartement sehr gut ausgestattet, toller Ausblick

😀 - Staff was friendly and helpful. 😞 - The entrance and grounds could be lighted better at night.

A very good place to stay with good amenities, very close to town and a good view of the water. 😀 - Very well equipped unit with a very nice balcony looking out to the water. Great games room as it even had a pool table. 😞 - I would have preferred a downstairs unit rather than having to climb a steep staircase to the second floor unit with a heavy suitcase.

A picturesque waterfront stay with personal attention and an array of amenities. This is a great place to stay in Cape Breton. The managers are friendly and they and the staff are very accommodating and helpful. The units are spacious and conducive to relaxation. The water view is lovely, and the free watercraft and amenities available at the reception area add value and fun to the stay.

Wonderful view of lake We stayed for one night in upstairs room. It was very clean and had well equipped kitchen.

Great accommodations with lots of amenities, only wish we could have stayed longer! 😀 - Beautiful views over the lake. Large, well appointed unit with lots of amenities including a bubble tub, bbq, and high end appliances, with nice cookwear and tableware. While we didn’t use it, the lodge had a large games room and there was access to water equipment.

😀 - Location, accommodations

Great stay! We very much enjoyed our stay at Keltic Quay. We say hundreds of Cormorants and experienced them all taking off on their migration. The views were spectacular and the accommodations were very good.

What a great spot! Have visited here quite a few times over the years and love it. The location is excellent, being right on the lake, and the views are hard to beat (especially in the fall🤩). The cottages and nice and roomy and very clean. The Lodge is beautiful and great for groups. It's a great place to explore the island from as it's very central. Also a great place to skidoo from in the winter, if you're into that. Can't say enough good things about Keltic Quay, highly recommend!

Nous avons séjourné 3 jours dans cet établissement qui propose des hébergements dans de jolis chalets au bord d'une anse du Lac Bras d'Or. Le site est superbe et les hébergements sont très spacieux, très confortables et dotés de tout le nécessaire pour y préparer les repas. L'endroit est très calme et nous avons eu l'opportunité de voir déambuler ou nager des oies sauvages juste devant le chalet. Possibilité de se ravitailler à proximité. Whycocomagh est située à environ 1/2 heure de Baddeck et de la route qui mène au parc des hautes terres du Cap Breton. Prêt de kayaks et accueil sympathique. Prix cohérents avec la qualité de la prestation. Incontestablement, le meilleur hébergement de notre séjour en Nouvelle Ecosse. Si l'occasion se présente, nous y reviendrons avec grand plaisir.

Great spot right on the water. Well located to explore this part of the island.

😀 - Alles was man sich für erholsame Tage wünscht,nette Eigentümer, gute Tipps für die Umgebung, gern wieder 😞 - Nichts

Stunning location, wonderful staff, the cottages are well equipped and offer guests a comfortable environment during their stay.

We absolutely loved our stay at Ketlic Quay. We stayed in cottage 5A (2 bedroom cottage) for 3 nights in July. The cottages are really spacious and have everything you need for your stay. They are literally meters away from the lake where we saw Otters, Golden Eagles, and loads of wading birds.The kids loved the games room, especially the pool table and the shuffleboard table and loved getting out onto the lake in the Canoe's and Kayak's. The cottages are very quiet and peaceful but Whycocomagh is just on the doorstep so plenty of things to do in the area and easy to get groceries and dinner etc.Recommend going up Salt Mountain for a great view of the lake and the Skye River Trail was nice to see a bit of the nature and learn a bit about the original settlers in the area.

From the moment we turned into the driveway till the time we left, everything was spectacular. The managers (Sheila and her husband) felt like family. Very informative and kind.Our downstairs cottage had the best view which opened up right into the lake. So much to do, especially because we had the use of the lodge (shuffleboard, a pool table, comfy chairs, a large cribbage board) and the outdoors (sitting on the porch, kayaking, canoeing, peddle boating).What a gem!

😀 - Posizione con vista sul lago stupenda! Nostro figlio ha adorato il cane dei proprietari. Cucina dotata di tutto, con barbecue.

A great place to stay with friends in Cape Breton. 😀 - The location is beautiful, the watercraft are free to use, the hosts and warm and welcoming, and the staff are accommodating. The kitchen was well-stocked and the views were amazing. Plus, the dog Bailey and cat Scooter were friendly and adorable. 😞 - N/A.

Relaxing and comfortable 😀 - Cool clean and well appointed. There were pedalos and kayaks readily available. The lodge had lots of games to enjoy. It’s a short walk to the COOP and the Farmers Daughter. The fire pit was still allowed despite fire restrictions. Booster the cat snd Bailey the dog were very amenable to pats and cuddles. Frog hunting at the pond also proved popular. Staff were very kind and approachable. 😞 - Our hopes of swimming/SUPing were dashed because the waters had lion’s mane jellyfish - we visited 6 weeks into no rain and a provincial ban on entering the woods. With the low water levels there was a strong sulphur smell near Cottage 6.

Toplocatie, om te onthaasten! 😀 - Prachtig uitzicht,de gastheer en gastvrouw waren super! Het voelt als thuis ver van huis😁. 😞 - Geen minpunten

Exceptional environment We stayed 3 days at this property which offers accommodation in pretty chalets on the edge of a cove of Lake Bras d'Or. The site is superb and the accommodations are very spacious, very comfortable and equipped with everything necessary to prepare meals. The place is very quiet and we had the opportunity to see walking or swimming wild geese right in front of the cottage. Possibility to refuel nearby. Whycocomagh is located about half an hour from Baddeck and the road to Cape Breton Highlands Park. Ready for kayaks and friendly Welcoming. Prices consistent with the quality of the service. Undoubtedly, the best accommodation of our stay in Nova Scotia. If the opportunity arises, we will return to it with great pleasure.

Had a wonderful stay here. Beautiful view, comfortable and homey accommodations, and friendly owners/staff. Conveniently located to many activities and interesting places to visit on Cape Breton. Hope to visit again soon.

Keltic Quay cottages are the perfect jumping off spot to explore both coasts of Cape Breton Island. The place is clean, quiet, comfortable, and fully equipped. The wonderful hosts even lent us a drip coffee maker for two avid morning coffee drinkers. Such a peaceful spot right on the bay and we totally enjoyed the balcony. We made day trips for hiking up the East Coast and the West Coast and then returned to our quiet home base at Keltic Quay each evening. Look forward to returning one day. Definitely recommend.

This place is amazing. Lovely cottages with everything you need for rest, relaxation, cooking, and sleeping. We enjoyed the lodge with several games, the cat “Scooter”, the kayaking and the proximity and convenience of the Cabot Trail which we did in one day. The owners even let us do laundry in the main building. You won’t be disappointed!

Wonderful stay 😀 - We really enjoyed outre stay. The view is beautiful. A beautiful and calm place to be. The suite is very clean and spacious. Kids really enjoyed it as well. We wish We couldve stated longer. 😞 - N/A

Stay here- you won’t be disappointed. 😀 - Everything. Location to Cabot Trail, water view, immaculate property, amenities, games lodge, super accommodating owners. 😞 - Nothing.

Absolutely beautiful spot with so many fun things to do..canoeing, pedal boats, kayaking outdoor propane firepit, beautiful living spaces and a really fun games room, to name our favorites!!The hosts were extremely accommodating and lovely people. We would highly recommend this spot and look forward to another visit soon...also an adorable friendly golden retriever (Bailey) and tuxedo cat on site....you won't be disappointed !!Thanks for everything !!!

Keltic Quay is a special place. We stayed with my parents in June and experienced great care by the caretakers of this special place. Baily (resident dog) was an added bonus. The cottages were clean and well appointed, the games room is a great spot to be competitive with family and friends. And the view is unbeatable. We had a relaxing weekend, watching the water and the eagles soar. We also loved exploring the little shops and markets. We will be back!

This place is amazing as it all of Cape Breton and the Cabot Trail. I have no hesitation in recommending this place to anyone. we stayed in the downstairs two bedroom cottage. They were expertly equipped with everything you could need with great linens and beds . Spotlessly clean and a most beautiful view. Our only regret was that three days was not enough. It is close to a town for groceries, wine etc and right near lots of trails to start your exploring. The hosts were friendly. we did not use the boats nor the lodge but everything was top notch. You wont regret your stay here but three days is not enough.

Great spot ! Units are large and have everything you need. The view for your morning coffee is so nice.

Sheila the owner was very helpful, friendly, and welcoming. Clean, spacious 2 bedroom cabin. Our teens enjoyed the many games in the lodge and we all enjoyed the kayaks offered on site. The washer/dryer in our unit was a great convenience.

Gorgeous cottage on the water! Very cozy, lovely place, extremely clean and everyone was friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Great waterside setting. Had every appliance, utensil you would need. Also electric fireplace and washer & dryer too. Very pleasant stay.

5/5 would stay again

We recently went to Keltic Quay.Beautiful facilities and great location. We had a winter booking and can only imagine how beautiful summer and fall would be! Hope to return again.Thanks for everything.

We LOVED our stay!!!!! We will be back for sure!!!!!!!

Wow, just wow. Beautiful cottages with a beautiful view over the lake. Incredibly friendly staff, couldn't ask for more.

Beautiful views, clean rooms and the hosts were lovely

Beautiful lake front cottage. I honestly think the interior is better than the on-line pictures. The grounds and the rooms are really well cared for. We used the electric fireplace which was a nice touch.The couple and golden retriever who welcomed us were friendly. There is a nicely equipped common room.There was no housekeeping during the stay, and a few rules to abide by to clean up before you leave (do the dishes) which is the only reason I am not giving a five star.I only wish we had more time to stay and enjoy the cottage.

An absolutely great experience at Keltic Quay. Our stay was perfect in every way. The suites are cozy, comfortable, clean and are equipped with all the comforts of home. The waterside view is outstanding, overlooking the beautiful Bras d'Or Lakes in the village of Wycocomagh, Cape Breton.||If you're looking to relax and unwind, this is a lovely place to spend some time. In addition the Lodge on the property is perfect if your travelling as a group. A terrific place to host meetings or conventions for a smaller group. ||A stay at Keltic Quay is quite unforgettable, really!

My sister and I recently did a girls trip to Cape Breton and stayed at Keltic Quay the entire time. Though a lot of our family and planned activities were on the West side of the island we wanted to be centrally located to do things on both sides of the island. Driving in either direction was incredibly scenic and we never minded any drives, though there are plenty of things to do within and not far from Whycocomagh as well.Our stay at Keltic Quay was AMAZING! Having that waterfront view each morning was good for the soul. The cottage was super clean and modern, and it seems they have thought of almost everything in the kitchen one would need. The grocery story and country store are very close and you can stock up on what you want while there. We did not plan to cook, but could have if we wanted to.My sister raved about how nice the owners were, and how accommodating they were to any questions. I was a little under the weather so didn't go in the lodge myself, but my sister said it was filled with so many high quality games and activities (guess I will have to find that out next time). Quiet hours were strictly adhered to and there was plenty of parking areas close to the cottage.

We were very pleased to have stayed at Keltic Quay for Celtic Colours. 3 friends stayed in the one bedroom 2 bed with sofa bed cottage. It was such a relaxing and convenient spot after a day exploring. Cottages have everything you need and the balcony was so nice for morning coffee. Would definitely stay again!

Fabulous place! So homely, staff were great especially Bailey!

My wife, a friend and I stayed 5 nights at the Keltic Quay at the start of the 10/24 Celtic Colours Festival. This was our second stay -- this time in a 2-bedroom cottage -- and we again found it an excellent choice for comfort, lakefront scenery and location. Cottages are modern, extremely clean and very well furnished with full kitchens. We look forward to our next visit.

Excellent place to stay ... pet friendly

Keltic Quay is everything you'd want in a place to relax, and unwind. The facilities and surroundings are outstanding. It made for an unforgettable weekend located on the shoreline of the beautiful Bras d'Or Lakes.

Friendly, great view, comfortable space for our fishing weekend, conveniently located near the boat ramp.

Absolutely beautiful place to stay! Nice and clean,accessible suite was perfect for my elderly parents. Definitely plan to return in the future!

Absolutely pristine and gorgeous Bayfront cottages. Cannot beat the view of where these buildings are located. Excellent business established here. Greeted with a friendly dog. BBQ to use right on your deck. Friendly staff and easy check in process.Thank you for this unforgettable stay.

A magical place. We were welcomed by Bailey the lovely golden retriever and her owner. The service was impeccable. Rooms were spotless. The view was breathtaking. Only complaint would be the flies but we cannot control Mother Nature.

It’s such a beautiful place, definitely a highlight of our entire trip. Staying in a cozy, clean cottage by the lake, where we enjoyed campfire and renting canoes, was a perfect experience. The kitchen is stocked with basic essentials like saucepan, cutlery, salt and pepper, and the cottage is equipped with barbecue racks and a campfire, making outdoor cooking a great option. It’s one of the best cottages I’ve stayed at, and I know I’ll definitely return.

An Amazing Place to Stay! I am so delighted to leave this review. My son and I just came back from staying at the Keltic Quay, and this was the most amazing place by far to spend our time on Cape Breton! The owners and staff were so accomandaing. The view was amazing, and the cottage where we stayed was wonderful! Also, this is the perfect place to stay as a base camp for viewing the rest of Cape Breton! We look forward to our next vacation here. Thank you!!

We only stayed for one night but it was very peaceful. We will be back and stay at least 2 nights! 😀 - Beautiful location and the owners are very friendly! 😞 - None

Exceptional 😀 - We come here fishing every year and love that there is a boat launch on the property and everything inside the cottage that u need 😞 - The only thing was us getting our boats in and out as there was 6 boats staying on the property and only room for 3 ! It would be nice if they could add another piece on the dock or another one on the other side of the of cottages 😀! Can’t wait to go back next year !!

Perfect Base Camp for Cabot Trail This is a great place to spend a few days to relax during a trip around Nova Scotia. We had a full kitchen, living room, porch and bedroom, perfect to unwind. This was our base for the Cabot Trail because it is so close. Randy and Sheila are so accommodating. They have a lodge with shuffle board, cribbage, billiards, a fireplace and very inviting leather couches. Super clean space with gorgeous views!

Fantastic location, very accommodating hosts. The bras'dor suite is a must stay when visiting this area of the island.

It was perfect! 😀 - The facilities in the cottages were exceptional. The kitchen was stocked way better than many airbnb's. The staff was super helpful and very nice. Although we didn't use it, the games room looked amazing! 😞 - None

Didn't spend the night. Used the lounge area for a Christmas party. Nicely decorated with lots to do, pool table, darts, shuffle board, and lots of board games. Throughly enjoyed the evening

In winters it felt like heaven 😀

Very nice! Excellent spot to retreat and unplug. Have recommended it to many friends.

me and my husband loved it 😀 - it was home without any interuptions peace and quiet 😞 - None

This is my second stay , the first stay was perfect in November. I will give it another try in March 😀 - I couldn’t get heat pump get heat . It was beeping continually. The bed was little too firm and pressure hot tub was very slow. 😞 - None

Relaxing and fun! 😀 - It was beautiful and well kept. 😞 - None

Very clean cottage with full fridge/stove and dishwasher. Lots of dishes and cutlery for use. We stayed here for 6 days in November. I would imagine it is fantastic in the summer or warmer months. Our cottage was cold and we could never quite get the place above 16C no matter what we tried. In Nova Scotia they use "heat pumps" to control the climate inside homes which we have never seen before. We followed the heat pump instructions on the wall to the letter and the unit seemed to have a mind of its own even when we powered it off. All night long the heat pump played a chime almost like a ringtone on a phone. but thankfully 2 of the 3 baseboard heaters did work. The bathtub is great but takes about 20-30 minutes to fill. The shower was useless. The location is fantastic and just steps to groceries, gas and Tims. We travel quite a bit and used 7 hotels in November alone so we're not new to travel and at this business you can tell they really have no competition and they know it 🙂 Rooms: cold Nearby activities: none Safety: safe Food & drinks: make your own

Rooms: Very clean and moveable. Love the glassed in deck. Safety: Felt very safe at all times. People in the community are very friendly and welcoming. Food & drinks: Lots of places near by to get tasty and affordable meals and snacks and something to drink.

Superb 😀 - Love the view, facilities and appearance of property. Well maintained! 😞 - The bed could be better , there was a dip in the mattress. I had to move over and thankfully was able get out of dip as I was travelling alone . I plan on staying more at this facility and will see if it’s better when I’m back in Jan 2024.

Exceptional 😀 - We loved everything. It was the perfect spot! 😞 - Loved everything.

Would recommend to friends. 😀 - Comfortable with a lovely view. 😞 - None

Superb 😀 - sehr schöne Lage am See, sehr ruhig, sehr freundlicher Manager 😞 - None

Loved this spot! Our family booked a unit that very comfortably house 6 adults. The view off the verandah while sitting on the Adirondack Chairs was spectacular! Nearby Babdeck is very charming.

Beautiful place that is surrounded by a beautiful area 😀 - This was a wonderful place to stay and the location could not be beat. They have a common area that is very large and comfortable in addition to the nice cottage 😞 - None

Exceptional 😀 - For family trip to Cabot Trail, my family stayed here for 1 night 1st week October. The location is perfect to prepare for the Cabot Trail, because there is a market nearby; I bought some meat and sausages for bbq, 2 bottles of wine and cheese at the nearby market. The cottage is super clean and convenient, so we relaxed a lot after several hours of driving from Lunenburg. In 1 bedroom unit with beautiful balcony view, there are 3 bed (2 beds and 1 sofa bed), so my family (2 adults and 1 kid) had really comfortable night. Further, we were impressed by the host's attention to detail (YouTube premium, wine glasses, salt, pepper and Keurig coffee machine/good coffee in the cottage). 😞 - None

Very very good. 😀 - N/a 😞 - None

Wonderful stay. The hosts were lovely people and the accommodations were beautiful. The Bayfront patio is an absolute treat and the amenities at this place are great! Kayaks, canoes, paddle boats and even some fishing if you aren't like me and get it stuck on a tree! First time here, will definitely visit again. Highly recommend 🙂

We recently stayed here on our trip around the Cabot Trail. This place is immaculately clean and Sheila and Randy are phenomenal We had such a great time and We will definitely be back again !! Rooms: The rooms were so nice and clean and the balcony was so beautiful .Stunning views all around.

Beautiful property, dog friendly - just wish they sprayed for earwigs before we showed up. Only stayed one night and they were accommodating in refunding the remainder of our stay.

Tranquil Beauty The photos don't show you how beautiful and peaceful it is here. You're looking out directly at the lake. It is truly a beautiful place to sit and relax on the patio or balcony. There is a fully equipped kitchen with lots of plates, utensils, glasses, etc. They are pet friendly and even have an outdoor dog washing station! The main cabin is gorgeous, it has beautiful leather couches, a shuffleboard game, pool table and a bar area. They have kayaks and paddle boards and a beautiful dock area.

Marvelous location, completely modern facilities, extremely well managed. Nearby activities: Picked this location to circumnavigate the entire island on day trips. Marvelous

Little piece of Heaven Love the Keltic Quay for a few days relaxation and to enjoy the beautiful views of our Island..We usually do a few days in the summer and then a couple of different times in the winter and have always enjoyed our stays Sheila and Randy are great and so welcoming to the guests..This stay my daughter and her service dog joined us and loved the accommodations I found it odd however that there is a charge of $30 for the dog as we have stayed in many provinces at different places and just last week in PEI and have never been charged a fee for the service dog

The location of this resort is fabulous, with a beautiful relaxing view from the back deck/porch out onto the lake. We had plenty of space for the two of us to mill around inside the unit. The hosts were extremely friendly and accommodating. An extra bonus - the lounge area was very spacious with plenty of games to play including pool, shuffleboard, darts, and other assorted table games. We'll definitely stay here again!

Great place! Great staff! Location is perfect for getting away or being in the water! Loved it! Had everything we needed in the kitchen. Lots of stuff to do.

Beautiful location and wonderful accommodations What a wonderful hidden gem in Cape Breton. All cottages face the lake with a beautiful porch or deck. We stayed in cottage 1B, a one bedroom 2nd floor unit that was newly renovated. Everything you need is at your fingertips with a full kitchen. Kayaks and paddle boats are available for use. Sheila and Randy, the managers of the property are so sweet and helpful, we could have easily stayed a week. And we can’t forget Bailey, the resident puppy! We hope to visit again soon!

Great place to stay with wonderful view. Great place to stay for a night or a week (as we did) when visiting anywhere in Central Cape Breton. These are self catering cottages (two bedroom units on ground floor and one bedroom units on second floor both with their own entrances) with everything you need for an enjoyable vacation. We have stayed there several times and each unit has been very clean, comfortable and well maintained. The view looking out over the Whycocomagh Bay is fantastic especially if you get up to see the sunrise. Highly recommend.

What a find! This places quickly became a favorite on our east coast road trip. The cottages were modern, spacious, and extremely clean. The location was great. The cottages are feet from the water with stunning views of the water and mountains. The games room was an added bonus and we spent a few hours in there having drinks, playing pool and board games. The owners were extremely friendly and welcoming. We will definitely look to coming back her on any future trips to Cape Breton.

Very pleasant stay. The cabins are just a few feet from the lake... and what a gorgeous lake it is! Clean and nicely appointed. Good internet (for streaming). Good heat (chilly evenings) and A/C (hot days!), and comfy beds. Keltic Quay made a good base for visiting other parts of Cape Breton. Randy and Sheila were lovely hosts (and we LOVED meeting Bailey the puppy!). My only "complaint" is that we didn't appreciate other guests parking their motorcycles in front of our porch, between our porch and the lake, one night. But that was only one night (and if it was longer, I would have complained). Definitely recommended.

Great chalets, lots to do at the main lodge should the weather become inclement, and the hosts are very friendly! Great golf and beaches nearby! The only downside was that the water, while warm, was shallow and weedy, making swimming difficult but not a problem for the water accessories provided. Definitely would go back though! Excellent for a large family vacation spot!

Beautiful spot! Very clean and perfect set up in rooms. Upstairs balcony view, fireplace in each room are nice touches! Lodge is where we spent a lot of time. Tv on for the hockey game and many games available to play. Randy and staff were very friendly and excellent to deal with.

Great little hideway to get away from everything. I was there for work, but it is definitely a great family spot.

If you're looking for a beautiful, quiet, serene place to stay, this is the spot. Check in experience was lovely, top of the cottage was clean, spacious and beautiful.

Beautiful view tonight from our porch. It’s too bad we are only staying one night because this place is gorgeous.

Amazing location. Property managers were awesome. Overall great experience.

There are no words to describe how beautiful the Keltic Quay is. My " room" a bachelor apartment was clean and beautiful and nicely up to date. I would HIGHLY recommend staying there. I want to go back during the summer. But staying there in the fall was beyond amazing.

Very friendly and helpful staff. I had a contractor working in town over the weekend and staying at Keltic Quay. They were willing to receive a package I needed to send the contractor. The courier missed the Friday delivery and dropped the package off late Monday after my contractor had left town. The awesome staff at Keltic Quay not only called me to tell me the package had arrived but went out of their way to drop the package off at the site in town. That is service. that is community. 🙂 Thank you so much. You saved me some headaches.

Was a lovely spot right on the water...very clean. Great lodge with pool and shuffleboard

Great place to stay, very clean and very friendly.

Lovely location, wonderful service, and clean and quiet suites. Best bang for your buck you'll find for miles!

Beautiful place to stay. Great accommodations. Wonderful hosts. View from private porch. Would stay there again.

It was exactly what was needed. A quiet comfortable retreat. Exceptionally clean and staff were welcoming. The view across the lake was amazing esp during sunrise. Making plans to return.

Magical family vacation! Paddle boarding on Bras d'Or Lake, campfires, games and s'mores. Highly recommend this resort - great base for exploring Cape Breton and driving the Cabot Trail. The cabins were clean, well-appointed and had a fantastic view of the lake from the kitchen and front porch. Huge thanks to Sheila and Randy for their hospitality which made for an exceptional stay. Also, be sure to visit Farmer's Daughter just down the road for a black pepper gingersnap cookie!

My sister and I stayed here and we will definitely be back. The place was beautiful, the view was amazing, vlose to where we happen to be visiting.

We started making this our annual trip destination. Amazing view to wake up to. Accommodations are top notch. Management are friendly and very helpful. Community lodge and fire pit.

Beautiful well equiped and comfortable accommodation with endless views

The most wonderful location and accommodations. Just perfect in all regards. We'll be back!

What a nice place. It's only 48 degrees on June 1st but we are not complaining. We played pool and shuffleboard in The Lodge..The owners were very accommodating! Must be really fun when it's warm.

Planning our 5th visit in April. Clean, comfy beds and linens, spectacular view, everything you need to cook (just bring food). The lodge offers many adult and childrens' games. Very cozy and Whycocomagh is a lovely little town offering everything you would need.

Beautiful place, top notch, Cottages and Lodge! I highly recommend Keltic Quay.

Wonderful place to stay and oh so close to being perfect. The only flaw that we found was the wifi in our cottage was very weak. Given that this controls the TV as well, you might want to bring some puzzles or activities for the kids if you're planning on spending a rainy day indoors. But that nitpick aside, everything else about the place was beyond excellent! When we drove up, we were greeted by a friendly cat, followed by a friendlier dog and then by the 'inn keeper's', who were incredibly kind and helpful. We were shown a fantastic games room with a complimentary pool table, shuffle board, poker table, etc. We, wetr then shown the fire pit and where the complimentary wood was, and then the paddleboards, kayaks and canoes - also complimentary. When our chat ended, we had a series of restaurant recommendations, tips to better plan our time on the Cabot Trail, and a cell phone number in case we needed anything at all. The cottages are clean, well appointed, and very comfortable. We honestly couldn't have been happier with our choice and would definitely stay there again.

This place is absolutely beautiful, we stayed for only one night ,but planning on coming back again !

A winter wonderland! Keltic Quay offers picturesque mountain views situated on the beautiful Bras’dor Lakes. The lodge is the perfect place to congregate with family and friends, enjoy a cozy fire, or pass the day reading a good book. Winter activities such as skidoo, ice fishing, cross country skiing and snow shoeing are enjoyed by many. Local amenities provide provide all the essentials and then some. The cottages are modern and well equipped; all have stunning views of the lake. Bird watchers will love the eagles that popular the local skies.

Exceeded all expectations and a highlight of our Nova Scotia tour! Peaceful lakeside setting. Exceptionally clean and spacious cottages with modern facilities. Welcoming hosts. Terrific value. Next time we’ll stay for more than one night… Thanks to Sheila and Randy for a wonderful stay.

Beautiful place to stay......Clean.....hosts very accomodating.....
nice & cozy with fireplace!
a real restful getaway!

Absolutely amazing place!! Thank You Randy & Sheila so much for hosting us this past weekend. You are a fabulous couple who just couldn’t do enough for our group!! We can not wait to plan another stay 🙌. Thanks again from the Glace Bay gang Feb. 24-26. Your beautiful golden baby was just the icing on the cake🐾❤️

We Were Sorry To Have to Leave! We did a three-week traveling tour of the Maritime provinces and this was one of our favourite places to stay! We had a two-bedroom cottage on the water, and it was lovely in every respect. It was nicely decorated, clean, and had a washer/dryer in the unit which was really appreciated. The kitchen was well equipped so we bought prepared frozen meals from the Farmer's Daughter (which were all tasty!) as we needed a break from restaurant food. It was cool, but we still spent time out on our deck, enjoying an evening drink and morning coffee - savoring the beauty and tranquility. Randy and Sheila were really hospitable, and Bailey the dog was adorable! We were sorry to leave.

Stunning We joined some friends of ours who were vacationing here and were blown away by how amazing the locale is. Nova Scotia truly is a beautiful province and these cottages are perfectly positioned to allow visitors to enjoy a once in a lifetime experience.

Quiet, neat tidy, stunning water views, friendly!!! Had a perfect stay!

I highly recommend this place. Well appointed, clean and spacious cottages set on a beautiful waterfront property. Friendly and helpful management.

Love Cape Breton and your Cottages sound fantastic!

The cabins are clean comfortable and in excellent shape . The staff were incredibly accommodating and friendly . I highly recommend staying here .

The rooms are clean and cozy and we really enjoyed the location right on the water. The main building with a huge fire place and tons of games was stunning. Sheila and Randy are fantastic, welcoming, and knowledgeable of the area. Highly recommend!

Beautiful! Friendly staff , very clean and amazing place to stay.

Wonderful stay Sheila at the front desk was excellent to deal with easy check in and check out. This place is definitely a gem even in the month of February. Excellent wifi,my cottage had a smart TV, great for Netflix and Amazon Pime. Very clean and comfortable with heat pump. Lovely stone work on the fireplace in main Lodge/Office. I will definitely return in the summer.

Beautiful view and amazing accomadations Great customer service and everything in room was clean and we loved it.

Beautiful location and amenities - went for a morning kayak ride in October! Wish we could have stayed another night it was such a peaceful spot to relax on our busy trip

Super comfy, super view. Easy and friendly checkin, no hassle checkout. Definitely hope to return

Had our company party there, meal was great, atmosphere was perfect.

It was perfect. Beautiful chalet style room.
There was a sign in our chalet about putting dishes in the dishwasher and starting it as we left. Pretty funny because there was no dishwasher.

Exceptional The place was so nice and located in a beautiful spot. The staff were warm and welcoming.

Exceptional Everything you needed to make your stay comfortable was there and no clutter

Very relaxing and enjoyable. We’ll be back. Party room which we had to ourselves for several hours.
Party room

A dream setting loved everything about our stay..!
The property was clean and perfectly placed by the waters edge

Hidden gem!! We absolutely loved our stay! We have stayed several years ago (and totally enjoyed)and we were pleased to see all the new updates..very nice!! There is nothing overlooked by the staff at keltic quay❤we will definitely be back!

Great stay! They absolutely thought of everything you need .Beautiful view,relaxing and peaceful!Keltic Quay❤

The perfect spot A beautiful tranquil spot with fantastic facilities within an easy drive of the Cabot Trail. See a bald eagle on the eyrie in the grounds, watch a heron feed at night or canoe out onto the lake. The Lodge has shuffleboard, billiards, darts and a range of card and other games and of
course there is a big fire pit. Just wonderful!
The air bubble bath was very noisy but I guess that's what they are like!

This place is incredibly beautiful. The cottage was above and beyond what we expected. The view from the porch is spectacular. The managers Randy and Sheila were absolutely wonderful. If you go to Nova Scotia you must stay in one of the cottages. Thank you so much.

Relaxing no hassle stay We stayed in the one bedroom unit in one of the cottages for 4 nights. Our stay was relaxing and hassle free.
The check in was smooth with a warm welcome from Sheila. The unit was very clean, and the kitchen was well stocked with cutlery, cups and plates.
The view from the balcony was outstanding. We enjoyed paddle boating one afternoon in the lake. The facility is dog friendly and our pug enjoyed his time too. The grounds are well maintained. We did the Cabot Trail for 2 days and returned in the evening. We received a gift card for Charlene’s restaurant and made good use of it too.
We would definitely recommend this place to our friends. More

Reservation system=UNRELIABLE & AWFUL What a disappointment this place was and we never even got to stay here! I phoned on Monday night before closing and spoke to a man named Ray (?) who told me that the Bras d'or room was available for Saturday night and told me how perfect it would be to celebrate our 11 year wedding annivesary. He told us to book that night online to secure it and promised us it would be ours and so we did within 10 minutes of hanging up with him. Two days later I didn't receive a confirmation e-mail so I phoned the front desk who told me she had never received the reservation and that they are now fully booked. This is completely unacceptable and now everything EVERYWHERE is booked and we have no where to go to celebrate our anniversary. I am sure it would be a wonderful place to stay, but management really needs to look into their reservation system to ensure this does not happen to another guest. We are heartbroken.

My husband and I enjoyed 6 wonderful days here at Keltic Quay. We booked the Whycocomagh suite cottage as it has a walk in shower. The cottage was lovely, spotlessly clean, very comfortable with very nice quality furniture. The cottage has everything you could possibly need for your stay. We were there during a very warm period with high humidity and were thankful for the lovely A/C. Harry enjoyed the kayaking, kayaks and canoes there to use when ever you like. Very quiet and peaceful to sit by the lake and enjoy its beauty. It’s very central for day trips down to Margaree with a stop at the Dancing Goat for lunch.There were fire works on Sunday evening which were a lovely added touch. I would highly recommend these cottages for anyone wanting to stay in the Whycocomagh area.We are looking forward to returning in the fall to see the autumn colors.Thank you for the lovely stay!Anne CowleyElliot

WARNING! You’ll never want to leave! Keltic Quay is a hidden gem in a sleepy town just minutes from Baddeck.
Our two bedroom cottage was absolutely darling, spacious and incredibly clean.
The view from our cottage was spectacular and we enjoyed spending many hours sitting on our covered deck resting and relaxing.
When we felt a little urge to do something, we enjoyed the paddle boats and indoor games room that offered a pool table, television and multiple board games.
Our own private BBQ was perfect for creating a home cooked meal.
With VERY obvious pride in ownership, from the second you pull through the gates of this community you know the worst part of visiting Keltic Quay will be leaving. More

An absolutely gorgeous place and the managers, Sheila & Randy went above and beyond for us. I’m so grateful for such an amazing weekend!!!!!!! I cannot wait to go back again!!!

Beautiful location and the cottages are great. The managers Sheila & Randy were absolutely wonderful. I cannot reccomend this place enough. Can't wait to go back!

It was a great long weekend, can’t express enough how much we loved this place and the kids really enjoyed. The kids enjoyed the lodge, lot of fun for everyone. The cottage is clean and comfortable, had all what we needed. Enjoyed the spectacular scene and great views. Sheila & Randy were so kind and helpful. The place is gorgeous and we are looking forward to our next trip.

Tracy Had a great visit here. The hosts were so friendly and helpful. Rooms were beautiful and comfortable. We had fun kayaking and paddleboating during the day. Enjoyed a bbq and campfire with smores in the evening. Highly recommend this resort!

Amazing Hospitality Stayed at the Keltic Quay with a group of female motorcyclists. We had an absolute blast at Keltic Quay's beautiful property. Enjoyed sitting around the fire, using the amenities room and playing pool, and the company of Randy and Sheila. They were fantastic hosts and made sure we were comfortable and having a good time throughout our stay. Can't recommend Keltic Quay enough!

We had the most incredible weekend at Keltic Quay. The weather was overcast and windy most of the time but the hosts were so exceptional making sure we had everything we could ever want to entertain ourselves, it was one of the best weekends ever! The cottages are absolutely gorgeous equipped with heat pumps to keep it cool and the views are spectacular. You will not find a more beautiful place with top notch hosts in NS. Keltic Quay is the whole package.

Beautiful , spacious units, very well kept. Will definitely come back again

Beautiful place,nice cottages

Great stay!!

I would highly recommend Kelic Quay for a relaxing getaway. Friendly people. Beautiful accommodations.

Great spot to stay. Unfortunately due to Covid the lodge part is closed. The chalets are well equiped and have nice views.

Beautiful place. Had a wonderful time here. My dog Hank loved meeting Hank! This place is first on my list to stay here in CB

Beautiful spot , nice people , clean. Has a game room with byob bar , music ...and fishing rite out front can't beat that

The manager who runs the place is amazing and so kind. Hank is the resident dog and he is such a sweetheart. You are right on the water, but unfortunately cannot swim in it. There are kayaks and a canoe, but if you have them, bring your own. Close to beaches (Mabou and Port Hood-20 minutes). 5 min bike ride to grocery/NSLC agent. 2 minutes from Salt Mountain which is a great little hike. It is quite southern, so we did a lot of travelling back and forth, but a great place to stay.

Beautiful place to stay, amazing amenities, marvelous view to wake up to

This place has never disappointed over the years. It’s the ultimate getaway. The rooms are first rate as is the service, amenities, breathtaking views as wildlife. This truly is a must visit location.

Beautiful place to stay. Cabins are clean and well stocked. Unfortunately the lodge was closed due to covid. Would like to return someday

Gorgeous spot

Lovely place, very quiet. Been there a few times. Heading back again. Renie is awesome.

we loved our stay here, cottages are very clean, Staff is super friendly especially Renie! Hank is absolutely amazing, I will be stopping by to visit him when I'm in the area. we wish them all the best in their upcoming retirement! thanks again for everything, we will be back in the summer!

They are located in the beautiful area of Whycocomagh, surrounded by mountains. The cottages come fully equipped and are very clean. The service there is beyond accommodating. My parents enjoyed their stay.

Would love to write a review but not permitted to stay We had stayed at the chalets in the past and found it was lovely except for a very strong sewage smell that prevented us from sitting on our deck during our stay. Unfortunately we had a tragic loss of friends who lived close by ( husband and wife who passed in a car accident ). We live in Halifax and were denied a place to stay while supporting the grieving family! We were told this was because of a “travel ban due to Covid 19”. We were beyond shocked and disappointed in this reasoning as it was certainly not a rule issued by the provincial government. I am a nurse and am very knowledgeable in infection control protocols, if the staff at this facility are doing what they say on the website there would be zero chance of any Covid 19 risk. You can not imagine the stress this caused us during an unbelievably painful and sad time in our family’s life. The folks who lost their lives were well loved in the community and had previously supported this business. Luckily we were able to find other accommodations, but I do promise we will NEVER book here again!

How beautiful the grounds are, how kind Renie the hostess is and the mind blowing views. We will definitely be back soon. Hank the doggie is also really cute 🙂

A home away from home, with a spectacular view. Highly recommend this place. And Renie, a genuinly wonderful Hostess, looking forward to coming back.

Awesome experience! Would do it again and again!

Beautiful Relaxing 3 day Stacation Keltic Quay is located on the beautiful Bras d’ Or Lakes in Whycocomagh. Great base for your Cape Breton stay. A lovely gated entrance with a pond and fountain. The grounds are immaculate and very well maintained. We were looking to decompress and just relax from work and that is exactly what we did and achieved. What a beautiful spot. The cottages are right on the water and there are kayaks, canoes and a paddle boat available to use as you like at no charge. There is a lodge there with game tables and a beautiful fire place however due to COVID it was not open. We stayed in the Bras d’ Or Suite. It was a one bedroom cottage on the top floor with a Queen size bed. Full kitchen with everything you need. There was a BBQ on the deck which we did not use. The deck was so nice to sit out and the view was outstanding. We spent our last night at the fire pit with a great fire and met a very nice family from our area. We brought our 4 month old puppy which was great to know they are pet friendly. They have a great lab Hank that lives on the property. He loves the water and will fetch a stick thrown into the water. Great dog. We did two day trips which one to Baddeck and one to Inverness Beach both being... Keltic Quay is located on the beautiful Bras d’ Or Lakes in Whycocomagh.

We did two day trips which one to Baddeck and one to Inverness Beach both being only about a 25-30 minute drive. There is a Co op in the area for groceries etc. a Guardian Drug Store and a Farmers Market that you can get baked goods, the best hot dog ever, meaning the bun was amazing. They had a lot on their menu for take out. They had a store there as well. Great as it’s just a quick drive from the cottage.

Renie who manages and lives on property was great! Extremely accommodating for anything you need. Very helpful with recommendations, places to eat, see and go. Thanks Renie you really completed our stay. I would highly recommend Keltic Quay for your stay in Cape Breton. We will be back for sure! The hidden gem in Cape Breton! More

So far so good!!! I am loving my view🥰🥰🥰

We stayed here for four nights. The cottage was very clean, modern and really well stocked. The manager is very friendly and her dog Hank is beautiful and so well behaved. We don’t have pets and I thought he brought some extra charm to the place! We made a variety of meals here and the kitchen had everything we needed. The views are what made our stay special, really spectacular even at night. It’s a really pet friendly place which made us nervous since one of us has pet allergies, but with no carpeting in the cottage and it being so clean this wasn’t an issue. We did use the complimentary canoes and kayaks which were great. Overall, it was a great stay!

Highly recommend We stayed here for four nights since they offered a discount for staying an extra night which was great. The cottages were very clean, modern and very well stocked. We did a fair amount of cooking and they had everything we needed to prepare meals. They are very pet friendly which made us nervous because one of us has pet allergies but with no carpeting in the cottage and it being so clean this wasn’t an issue.

The most tranquil place we have ever stayed, so romantic, a stay is an absolute must. The owner Renee was extremely friendly and obviously takes pride in her cottages and property because they were beautifully kept. We are already making plans to stay again this summer. And you'll love their greeter Hank, he is awesome !!!

Beautiful location and cottages. Extremely clean, stocked with useful amenities and beautiful views. We stayed as a group 20, Renee was so welcoming and went out of her way to ensure we had a great stay.

Would recommend to all! We will be back next year.

Adorable Hank is such a treat to have around!

Birthday weekend I recently took my daughter, puppy and friends to Keltic Quay for our birthday weekend and felt very comfortable with the cleanliness and sanitation, having a gorgeous view, pristine surroundings made this trip so worthwhile. Renie and Hank were so friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend making this central spot a vacation highlight for families or couples.

The Keltic Quay cottages were truly amazing. Excellent location and everything it is advertised to be. Beautiful lakefront views, plenty of room. Very relaxing to come back to at the end of our busy days of visiting the many sights and Cabot trail. We would highly recommend this property!

Loved the accommodations, area and staff. We will be back some day! Thank you for the enjoyable experience.

Very very nice and affordable priced

Fantastic stop for a night.Cozy with an incredible view.Canoes, and other boats...jellyfish included!

Have stayed here a few times. Dandy cottages and beautiful view of the Bras D’Or Lake (you’re about 20 feet from it). Staff is friendly and helpful. Also, can’t forget about Hank, the resident retriever! Definitely recommend a stay here if you’re in Cape Breton.

Fully equipped clean cottages...great location...must eat at Charlene's...known for the best chowder. Breakfast was great...decent prices.

Always a great spot. Renie and staff are amazing. Landscapes and views are hard to beat.

Great place to stay, traffic views.

Exceptional The room was beautiful and clean. Awesome view and everything you could ever want... full kitchen living room service was awesome. Will definitely come back.

Perfection! Everything! It's why we return each year.
It's perfect! Generously outfittted with any thing we needed.... dishes, blankets, extra pillows. Super clean and comfortable.

It's awesome location. I used to make hay there with my Dad 50 years ago. Wow, where did the time go!

love the dog so much
such a beautiful spot

We stayed here whilst we built our cottage. Clean, comfy and relaxing. My dogs loved it there too. Renee and Hank are the best! Highly recommend.

Cosy stay Recommended on a blog and was a little hard to find, but well worth the effort.
A picturesque setting overlooking the water with well appointed rooms and facilities.
Would be great to come back to in the summer and might just plan that the next time. More

Perfect spot The place was spacious, super clean and had everything we needed. The view was fantastic as was the lady at the reception desk. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Exceptional The manager was so kind and welcoming. Upon our arrival, our cottage was open and warmly inviting. She made a wonderful recommendation for our dinner, which we throughly enjoyed. Our only regret is that we did not have more time to enjoy it, as we only stayed 1 night due to our travel itinerary. I highly recommend this lovely lodge.

Great base for exploring Cape Breton Located right on the lake shore the views are amazing and the small town of Whycocomagh is within easy walking distance. Our (upstairs) apartment was well equipped, warm and comfortable and although one bed roomed there were two double beds. The kitchen was well equipped but there was no extractor for cooking fumes and the simple task of making toast was enough to set the smoke alarm off and for some reason there are two door leading onto the outside deck/balcony one of which has a strong spring to keep it closed, so cannot be left open for ventilation. Whilst on the subject of the balcony, the views are outstanding and there are seats and a BBQ, would have spent much more time there if the weather was warmer but we did enjoy seeing the onsite Labrador playing in the water as well as all the birds. The lounge area was comfortable and the TV had more than enough channels. The bathroom was fine, with a bath and shower (over) and plenty of hot water. An observation to those with small children, the top of the stairs leading to the apartment is open and could be a hazard. There is a very nice "club house" with comfortable seating and games, also there is a bar which sadly is no longer in use but you are welcome to bring your own drinks and socialise. There is a very good seafood restaurant nearby which was so good we didn't try any others. Despite the minor negatives above we would defiantly stay there again, maybe a ground floor apartment though, and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone venturing to the wonderful Cape Breton who would enjoy a peaceful setting with outstanding views.

Very special The view was outstanding and our daughter and grandaughter loved the kayak ride. Watching the bald eagles was a glorious experience! M

Nothing, it was perfect

Uma grata surpresa! O local, à beira do lago, o apartamento com churrasqueira, tudo.
Não houve nada que não gostasse.

Exceptional Our room was very nice, well equipped and quiet. The view of the lake in front of our terrace was stunning. The lady at the reception was very kind and helpful. Groceries and restaurants nearby.

10+ rental. Elegant cottage, very well equipped; magnificent views.

Exceptional The owner was extremely friendly and welcoming. Our cottage was clean and well stocked. The location is beautiful. Will definitely come back and recommend to everyone.

Ideal base for exploring Cape Breton Fantastic views, central and peaceful location.
Unable to leave door to balcony open, no extraction of cooking fumes causing alarm to sound.

Exceptional The view was beautiful, the unit was well stocked, the beds were comfortable and it was very clean.

Happy wife, happy life! We both have CPAP and having a nightstand on both sides of the bed is helpful. The extra sink in the bedroom is a nice touch since we both have eye conditions that require multiple solutions. Air conditioning is a nice addition even in Canada. The quaint little local restaurant was amazing. Plenty of nice towels and soap. Decorations were nice without being in the way. Useable space for us to set things and not put them on the floor. Ceiling fans, view from front porch and many other nice things I’m sure I forgot.
Head of the bed seems a bit lower than the foot. Mattress is a bit soft for us but it seems most everywhere we’ve stayed in Canada the mattress is a bit more soft than in the U.S. This mattress was by far better than anywhere else we’ve stayed in maritime Canada. The television cabinet door stays out a bit on both sides of the TV, but who needs tv anyway.

Exceptional Just a wonderful fully equipped waterfront suite. Very luxurious with a new feel to every part of the four part unit. Great view. Could have stayed a few days and enjoyed a home like stay. And just across the road from our favourite Charlene’s Bayside restaurant.

You Must Stay Here!! If you are going to Cape Breton and don’t stay here, you are missing one of the greatest joys of Nova Scotia. From Hank the dog to the eagle and osprey nests, this place is everything you could want and more in a lodge

We had a pleasant, lovely experience and would recommend the property to anyone who asks. The Keltic Quay sits on the edge of Bras D'or Lake; it is well maintained with many amenities to keep you entertained.
Our only issue was the smell in the room when we got there. It smelt as if someone had just cooked something spicy. WIndows opened and aired out and everything was perfect.

Exceptional Awesome place right near the lake, we enjoyed having an evening barbecue. In the main house there are many facilities to use such as a pool table, shuffle board, darts game,... The host was very friendly and helpful. We stumbled upon this hidden gem by accident as it was recommended by booking.com after another place we wanted to stay at had been cancelled due to weather conditions. What a nice surprise this was!
Be aware that there can be quite a few mosquitoes around (it is by a lake after all).

Great location, friendly staff and awesome lake views. Very nice apartments with beautiful water views from the balcony or patio. Watching Hank (dog) running around in the water was great. Had a great welcome and easy check-out and departure. No restaurants within walking distance but there was an adequate grocery/liquor store within walking distance.
Nothing - It was a great stay/

Excellent Uno dei migliori alloggi del nostro tour del Canada Est. La titolare è stata fantastica, sempre sorridente e prodiga di consigli sulle attività della zona. Il lodge è direttamente vista lago, si possono osservare le Aquile Calve le oche selvatiche ed altri uccelli della zona. Molto vicino si trova un ottimo ristorantino. È anche comodo per chi vuole effettuare il Cabot Trail

Good Location
Views
Bed frame was dangerously close to door - walked into it multiple times
Uncomfortable bed
Shower didn’t work well

Superb The room and resort were amazing! Very friendly staff and very clean. Would love to come back!

Family Fun Our extended family of grandparents, children and grandchildren rented three units for five nights. From there we toured Cape Breton, our first visit. The units provided us with all of our needs. Having laundry facilities in each unit was most helpful as was the convenience of a kitchen for meals. The other amenities were well used by our family: kayaks and paddle boards on the lake, pool table, shuffle board and cribbage board in the main Lodge, the fire pit and Hank, the Quay's dog. Thanks Rennie for your and your staffs' hospitality.

It was a wonderful week here!! The cottages are spotless and the beds are comfortable- the view is amazing! Renie is an amazing hostess- definitely book your stay here on Cape Breton - this has been a vacation to remember!

Beautiful view, clean and friendly. My wife and I stayed in 1 bedroom cottage for 5 days. Actually hated to leave. It felt like our home. Great location to Cabot Trail. Beautiful view of Whycocomagh Bay. Renie very helpful in providing information and how could you not like Hank, Renie’s lab. Eat at Charlene’s. Best seafood chowder I’ve ever eaten.

Amazing views with beautiful accommodations! My kids loved having access to the kayaks and paddle board. Wish we could have stayed longer!

stop over east coast touring holiday such a amazing place .we had lower cabin sleeps 5-6 and everything including bbq, all pots pans dishes it is self contained with a beautiful view of bay to ocean.all you need to do is cook and clean up would go back but stay longer just a few km from Cabot trail. More

The Keltic Quay was very very clean. I would highly recommend it for couples or families with older children. They have a pool table shuffleboard kayak paddle boat and a fire pit(they supply the wood) which our teenage children loved being able to do after a long day of driving and sightseeing. Renie is a great host and her staff are very friendly. Our place had everything a family of 5 would need. Plenty of room, 3 t.v.s fully equipped kitchen and bbq. Also a beautiful, peaceful view of the lake from our porch to relax. Very close to grocery store with beer/wine (could walk there) , pharmacy, Tim Hortons. We loved the lodge dog Hanck!!
Thank you Renie and staff!!!

Beautiful Property, Terrible Bed When you drive into the gates of this property, you are immediately impressed with it. However, the interior of the rooms is another story. We spent 2.5 weeks all over the Canadian Martimes and this was our last stop. It was by far the worst bed we had the entire trip. It was like sleeping in a hammock as the mattress was very old and had given out in the middle. Our bathroom, upon arrival, had used washcloths hanging in the shower, which was off putting. Our arrival was late (Note, you HAVE to let them know you are arriving after 8pm) and the reception was hurried with little instructions - we didn't even understand how our room worked! No breakfast or food of any kind on the property - which to their credit, there is a bakery five minutes walking...we didn't bother to tell the hotel - we were exhausted and they seemed too busy taking new reservations to help us out. Again beautiful grounds and good location, but the inside is dated and we were so happy to leave that terrible bed!

AMAZING - from Renni to Hank (dog) see you again in 2020!!

the owner/innkeeper is top notch. the location, views & services & amenities included w/ ur stay can't be beat! I'm a repeat customer that used to work in the hotel industry for large luxury chains for over 10 yrs. so this is an educated & honest review!

5 Star for Friendliness, Value and Families We stayed three nights at Keltic Quay. It’s like staying at a family compound, rather than a lodge. The owner is so friendly. She introduces you to her dog Hank and her eagle friend, Harry. The rooms may not be five star compared to a Four Seasons, as they are a bit dated, but they are perfect for families. We stayed in the Wycocomagh Suite, plus had one smaller room. The beds are comfy, the bathroom is big, the kitchen is complete, plus there is a bbq to use. The grocery store is a short distance away. We loved having a big table to play games. If you are from the US, you get the Boston TV feed.

Unfortunately, it was a little too chilly and windy for us to enjoy the lake, but it looks like kayaking and boating would be really fun. We also didn’t use the game room, but it has pool and table shuffleboard.

Wycocomagh is a great place to base for the Cabot Trail. It’s about 25 minutes from Baddeck, which has lots of restaurants and the Bell Museum. We got to Fort Louisbourg and back easily.
If you are looking for a place for a family, this would be a great place to stay.

excellent place to stay in idyllic lakeside surroundings Best place we stayed in the whole of our recent Nova Scotia tour. Renie the manager here makes you very welcome and she is personable, professional and takes a real interest that you are relaxed and comfortable with your stay. Worth paying the extra few bucks to stay in a lovely place like this.

What a Find! Immaculate cottages, well maintained and spotless. We had everything we needed to feel right at home for our 4 night visit. The grounds are so well groomed. The cottages all face the lake. It’s so pleasant to just sit on the deck and take in the views. You couldn’t get a more central location to visit Cape Breton Island. Thank you Renie for making the 4 of us feel so welcome!

Beautiful spot! Families enjoying some great weather.

Amazing place , Renniw an LC are there to make your stay always memorable !!

Renie was a great host! The place was very clean with an excellent view. The jacuzzi tub was very relaxing after a long day of traveling. We were even able to bring our own two pups with us! Would recommend others to stay here.

Family of 5 stayed here as a stopover. Wish we could have stayed longer. View was beautiful, fully stocked kitchen was perfect for making our own meals. Had breakfast at Charlene's following a recommendation from Renie, highly recommend!! (And get the chowder)

the kayaks were great. Units are nicely done, beds and pillows are really comfy!

Lovely little place hidden away in a quiet corner of the bay,very clean and modern, and includes everything you need for a wonderful stay,included free of charge is the view of the lake which is priceless in the fall.

A nice, cute little spot! They have everything you need in the cottage.

love staying here, Monday morning during breakfast we had a beautiful view of loons and eagles over the glass like water.

Great place to stay. Clean, friendly service .Can't wait to stay this summer.

Amazing place. Very friendly staff. Simply beautiful.

Excellent Year Round Retreat I live in Nova Scotia and although it's a beautiful place in summer and fall, it can be very daunting in winter. This winter in particular has been very cold with little snow in the area where I live, so I decided it was time to get out and find some snow. In Nova Scotia that means going to Cape Breton where there is usually an abundance. Keltic Quay has a beautiful location right on the shores of the Bras D'Or Lakes which in February means a frozen expanse upon which you can skate, snowshoe, ice fish or if there's a recent snowfall, cross country ski. You can also watch the eagles that regularly hang out on the ice not far from the lodge. Another very popular activity is snowmobiling with the Cape Clear trails giving access to hundreds of kilometres of Cape Breton wilderness. These start almost literally across the street from Keltic Quay. For real exercise one can snowshoe up the steep Salt Mountain trail for one of the best views in Canada. While there's lots to do outside, what really surprised me about Keltic Quay is how much there is to do inside. The large common room in the lodge has a huge stone fireplace with comfortable leather couches to curl up in. But there's a lot more - the best bar shuffleboard I've ever played on - imported straight from Texas. There's also an excellent pool table, built in cribbage board, lots of board games, an ongoing jiggle saw puzzle to work on, darts and a large chess board. You won't be bored after a day of outdoor fun. Although there's no restaurant, nearby Charlene's provides terrific meals with the chowders simply outstanding. The rooms are Keltic Quay are more like condos with a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, nice gas fireplaces and comfortable beds. I don't know why it took so long to realize that winter in Nova Scotia does not have to mean hibernating inside or fleeing south. Keltic Quay will become a regular winter destination.

es genial para ir de vacaciones yo iré pronto

This place is simply amazing and I highly recommend to anyone. So clean and cozy! Not one complaint and the staff is friendly and caring! We look forward to going back!

We had a lovely winter getaway with friends. Felt like a home away from home. The lodge was a definite highlight. Would love to go back in the summer 🙂

We went on Saturday to visit my son and his wife sister and her husband and two other friends very nice place

Snowmobiling Weekend Awesome place to stay. We stayed in a 2 bedroom cottage. Lots of room and very clean! The only thing you need to bring is your food. It’s stocked with everything you need. It has a common area with a fire place, lots of seating, pool table etc. Great place to hang out in the evening.

Excellent beautiful place to stay!!!

The Keltic Quay is so luxurious, the views are beautiful, and the staff is absolutely excellent! We loved everything about the Keltic Quay! From being greeted by Hank the Tank, to hanging out in the main lounge playing shuffleboard, and taking in the breathtaking views from our balcony. Renie was SO sweet, helpful and kind, and went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Before we departed we re-booked for December and are so happy to say that we found our new favorite place to stay! Thank you so much Renie and Hank, we can't wait to come back in December! -Emily and Jonathan

Loved the comfort of the cottage suite and the view on the balcony was awesome. We also enjoyed the bubble tub. Very relaxing. Being pet friendly made us feel very welcome and having Hank welcome Beau made it even more fun. Thank you Renie.

Cape Breton at its finest that is all that needs to be said!!!

Perfect Stay Friendly, clean, spacious unit, stunning views and reasonably priced. Not sure what could be better. We were here for the Celtic Colours Festival and our accommodation certainly helped make our trip very special.

Love this special place Our well appointed cottage looked out over the bay from the upper floor. All units face the waterfront and have a living area with a gas fireplace, dedicated eat-in kitchen with refrigerator, stove, dishwasher and microwave, dishes and cookware. The bathroom has a generous jacuzzi tub and adjustable showerhead. The queen-size bed was covered by a soft and warm handmade quilt.

We had the most comfortable night’s sleep here of any place we’ve been over a summer filled with travel, both in the US and Nova Scotia.

Our stay in Whycocomagh was a cold rainy one, but we enjoyed a crackling fire in the lodge and the company of Hank, the resident dog.

Recommended local activities were accurate and well chosen for us. The innkeeper has a wealth of knowledge of the Cape Breton area and other Nova Scotia destinations.

We only wish we could have stayed longer - we almost did!

Best accommodation for a long time when travelling What can you say, from the warm welcome from Rennie and Hank the dog to the excellent accommodation and a view over the lake to die for. Sunset and sunrise were spectacular. Great watching the herons hunt for fish! Would in the future be good to provide breakfast as choice in the village is limited. Can always cook yourself in the excellent kitchen though. Perfect in every way and wish we could have stayed longer More

A great getaway! A hidden gem for sure! This is my favourite place to getaway and unwind for a while! It’s so incredibly beautiful here - my favourite place in Cape Breton!! Beautiful views centrally located comfortable beds fully equipped cabins!!

Can’t wait to come back WOW WOW WOW!

Originally we were only supposed to be spending one night at keltic quay... our other hotel had cancelled on us due to overbooking so by luck keltic quay had space for us the first and second night.

Straight on arrival we were greeted by the beautiful black Labrador Hank. After a quick check in and warm welcome we were shown to our lodge for the few days. It was clean, comfortable, very spacious and the view... the view was wonderful.

Our main reason for visiting was to complete the Cabot trail (an 8 hour scenic drive). I cannot recommend this enough to anyone.

Keltic quay supplied paddle boats, kayaks and rowing boats all free of charge to help yourself too. Every single day I was out kayaking in the lake (despite having never done it before). The only thing I would say is avoid swimming in it. There are jellyfish everywhere although apparently they come in flocks so perhaps it was just the time of year?

We found a top knotch bbq on our deck - and as my partner is a chef that mean bbq’s every evening!

Overall we had a five star stay and wish we could’ve stayed for even longer.

Thank you very very very much!

We will be back when visiting again from England.

Perfect place I wish we could stay longer! This place is just everything you would hope for relaxation and comfort. Renie's warm welcome and desire to help with anything we need created almost a homelike atmosphere. Thank you, Renie! Cottages are beautiful. Newer built, with everything necessary in it - from kitchen to bath. Internet worked well, washer/dryer were so helpful. Grill on a porch. It was a home away from home. And the setting around was beautiful - so peaceful! In the main lodge there is a huge 'family' room with the pool table, many other games, bar, TV, music...There are always things to do and to meet other families if you wish. And overall location is convenient, while being very private and quiet.

Idyllic base for the Cabot Trail Awesome place to stay! Convenient to Cabot Trail. Beautiful cabins, beautiful location on the lake. Cabins had everything you could need if you want to make a home made meal. Access to canoes, kayaks, paddle boats, a fire pit, a pool table. Renie is truly a great innkeeper, very concerned for her guests' comfort.

Amazing view and so much to do We enjoyed or trip to Keltic Quay so much, we are already planning our resturn trip. It was an excellent homebase to explore Cape Breton. 2 Bedroom Cottage was perfect for our family of four. Airbath, TV, and good internet service in our room and a lovely deck looking out to an amazing view. Pictures can not capture the beauty. Rennie and Hank welcomed us with open arms. We had fun around the fire pit, playing pool and shuffle board in the lodge. Can’t wait to go back.

Renie made it easy to check in, and was very accommodating. Great view and a very nice spot right on the lake. Respectful neighbors too! You have access to paddle boards and mini boats complimentary. Very happy about this B and B and I have stayed at many. I had a few guests one day and she made it easy and accommodating for everyone. Fire pit is nice and I went running around the lake too. If you want a nice place to stay in the area I would recommend Keltic Quay for sure. Thanks again!

Gablefly The apartment was very clean and well appointed. Plenty of supplies. A couple of things I would point out...the Internet service is very slow. Don’t expect to stream anything. Also while the spot is very peaceful and pretty it is not close to anything we wanted to do. A good hour to the beginning of the Cabot Trail and an hour and a half to cape Breton highlands. We did a lot of driving so did not use this place very much.

Amazing property and people We were traveling between family in Antigonish on our way to see our daughter in NFLD. We stopped along our route at Farmers Daughter and Heather told us about this lodge. What a wonderful surprise! Beautiful, well supplied, cabins on the water. Access to canoes, fire pit, paddle boats etc. Kitchen had everything you could need to make wonderful meals and our cabin had a BBQ on the front deck. Renie was amazing! A true animal lover and a wonderful person! We may have found this gem unintentionally however we will plan to return for longer. Would love to bring the family for a week here next summer. Thank you for a memorable evening! See you again soon.

Outstanding facility, excellent service and the views are world class! They hosted our group of 40 without issue!

Such a Pleasure! Such a treasure. Sometimes photos make a place look better than reality. And sometimes photos don’t do it the justice it deserves. Such is the case with the Keltic Quay.

Calm, comfortable, and incredibly lovely, the Lodge is not only my favorite hotel in Cape Breton but also one of my favorite stays of all time. Set along the waters edge, serene cottages are steps from the Bras D’Or Lake. Our favourite times involved relaxing on the front porch with a bottle of wine, enjoying the scenery, and occasionally patting Hank – the dog that comes with the lodge.

Hank’s a black lab, and is as charming as his owner Renie, the woman who runs the lodge. Everything is taken care of. There’s a fully stocked kitchen, eating area, comfy living room with a gas fireplace, dining area, barbeque– and even a washer and dryer. The beds are wonderful, the scenery is spectacular, and the spacious suites are incredibly clean (I would like to live here).

There’s also a lodge with a pool table, and a whole bunch of games. Large sofas are available for those who want to have a lively game of cards, or escape from their family.

The front porch fabulous, but the grounds are gorgeous as well. Although we felt safe and secluded from the rest of the world, we were only a five-minute walk from a grocery store, drugstore, and several places to eat. The Farmers Daughter makes excellent fish tacos, and Charlene’s has fabulous chowder. People were friendly and helpful in Whycocomagh– and the town has the smallest barbershop that I’ve ever seen.

The lodge is also a jumping off point to the Cabot trail. We spent three nights, which wasn’t nearly long enough, where we were well looked after by Renie and Karen. There are lots stunning attractions close by – beaches, whale watching, hiking, museums – but when we ran out of steam, it was always such a pleasure to return to our cottage at the Quay.
