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! read less

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. read less

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. read less

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. read less

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! read less

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. read less- Exceptional Our room was very nice, well equipped and quiet.

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.

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 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!

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. read lessexcellent place to stay in idyllic lakeside surroundings Best place we stayed in the whole of our recent Nova Scotia tour.

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... read moreI 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. read less - This place is simply amazing and I highly recommend to anyone. So clean and cozy!

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.

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!

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. read lessSpectacular View, Wonderful Staff and Accommodations I'd stay at Keltic Quay again in a heartbeat!

My only regret is not staying here longer--the view was absolutely spectacular, including the Avery wildlife we saw everyday (eagles and osprey as well as so many others).

We ended up booking a cottage for the night (SO VERY BEAUTIFUL!) and we were greeted at the door by Hank the lab/bernese mix and his owner. When she found out all we had was a loaf of bread in the car, she gave us a cheese ball, crackers, butter, jam, cheese, grapes, pop and shortbread cookies so we didn’t have to go out again.
