I came here for a 3 day stay as i purchased a property in Middle River and these 3 days was planned as part of the closing process. Well 3 days turned to 9 days. Without hesitation the stay was extended and I was told "For as long as you need, even after we close for the season, We never kick out a guest". For those that stay here Christena is an original Caper and knows a ton about the area and the island. If she does not know it she knows someone who does.
I would stay here again if the need ever arisesand was offered as much!
Thanks Diana and Christena for making my stay a great experience and for listening to my Cape Breton home purchase adventures. I know we will meet again.
I had a 2-week stay there during hurricane Fiona. Fortunately we never lost power. The staff was wonderful and the room well equipped. I regret that it was too late in the season to take advantage of the outdoor pool. Beautiful lake views from my room. I would highly recommend this well managed resort for a night or a lengthy stay.
