One of the best authentic experiences in Canada!
The Keltic Resort is widely regarded as the premier resort in the Maritimes! It delivers the perfect getaway you’re looking for, with 53 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 just steps from the Arduaine Restaurant.
There are a mix of large rooms with two double beds, and equally large rooms with king size beds. Some 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 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 The Keltic Resort, 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 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
Spacious. Modern. Storied.
Once home to generations of summer staff, The Courtyard Suites have been thoughtfully reimagined into inviting accommodations that blend Keltic history with easy coastal comfort.
Originally built in the 1950s as the Boys’ Residence, the Argyle and Montrose buildings now house four modern, two-bedroom suites. Each layout features two king bedrooms, each with its own private ensuite bathroom. One side of the suite opens up to a warm, comfortable living area and a private deck, providing the perfect relaxed Highlands escape.
