Accommodations

One of the best authentic experiences in Canada!

Keltic Lodge at the Highlands is widely regarded as the premier resort in the Maritimes! It delivers the perfect getaway you’re looking for, with 120 rooms, multiple styles of accommodations, and a price point for every budget.


The Corson House

formally known as The Keltic Inn

At the Corson House, otherwise known as Taigh Corson, you’ll feel right at home in one of our 40 air-conditioned guestrooms that include a range of thoughtful amenities for a relaxing stay. Completely renovated in 2016, the Corson House is conveniently located beside The Spa at Keltic, and steps from the Arduaine Restaurant.

There are a mix of large rooms with two double beds, and equally large rooms with king size beds. All rooms boast generous windows, to capture incredible views from the Middle Head Peninsula, but the most breathtaking vistas are of Cape Smokey in the Ocean View rooms. All ground floor rooms have outdoor patios, accessible from each room. Brand new suites were added during the renovation—four two-bed loft suites, and two studio suites with king beds and a pull-out couch.

Taigh Corson is named in honour of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Corson (friends of Alexander Graham Bell) who bought this wondrous piece of property, and built the original Keltic Lodge in 1910 as a summer retreat from the hustle of the city.

The Stanley Thompson House

an homage to our architect

This building—built in the 50's—was the house of the original Property Maintenance Manager of Keltic Lodge, and more recently the General Manager. These suites are named in honour of the late Stanley Thompson, Canada’s greatest Golf Course Architect, and designer of Cape Breton Highlands Links—consistently rated one of the top five public courses in the country (his statue stands at the nearby 1st tee). In 2016 the residence was re-imagined as Taigh Thompson, and offers two one bedroom luxury suites overlooking the first tee. The lower suite includes the use of a private fenced, backyard, while the upper suite boasts a deck with panoramic views of Cape Smokey, Ingonish Beach, Mount Franey, and Cape Breton Highlands Golf Course. The Sunset from this deck is certainly something to write home about.

The Courtyard Suites

the ol' Boys' Residence

These 1950's buildings, were originally known as the Boys' Residence, as summer staff often live on site at Keltic Lodge. Among the thousands of former Keltic staff, is world renowned songstress Anne Murray, who stayed in the nearby Girls' Residence, which is still in use for staff. No one would recognize these buildings today, as they were also completely renovated in 2016.

The suites have now been reimagined as Argyle and Montrose. They feature four modern suites, each with one private bedroom, a spacious living room and a private deck, as well as four individual rooms, each with a king bed and modern private bathroom. If you have the choice, the view of North Bay from the north suites is a vacation all by itself.
