I have heard many people say they had stayed here over the years and wanted to see it. We weren't sure what to expect as the lodge is older and may have seen better days. It was a step back in time beside the sea. The rooms were as we expected clean and met our needs. We had a nice... More

This is located right on the water. Plenty of things to do. Staff was very nice! Can't wait to go back. More

We stayed in one of the cottages for 4 days for a large family group. The setting was beautiful and the lake with the paddle boats and canoes was such a nice touch. The firepit on the beach was well set up. The kids really enjoyed the pool. The restaurant was not accessible due to a fire that happened earlier... More

My husband and I stayed two nights at this resort to attend a wedding, which was held at the resort as well. We were both impressed with the location, the value and the service. We stayed in the standard hotel room, which was very clean and sufficiently spacious, however we did have the opportunity to view the 2-story cottages which... More

We decided at the last minute to visit Nova Scotia and spend a night in Pictou. I found this place on the internet and was delighted with it when we put our key in the lock. This place has many amenities, including a heated outdoor pool plus a private beach. There is a life-sized checker board and activities for kids,... More

This place is a gem. Very beautiful location. Nice small beach for beach combing, pond for paddling, warm swimming pool that the kids loved and Adirondack chairs for relaxing. The lodge for meals is gorgeous - old log building with a soaring ceiling and lots of atmosphere. Nice food, including a kids menu. Warm service. Also neat to see photos... More

The hall was easily able to accomodate 130-140 people & very attractive with beautiful beams in the vaulted ceiling. The room was airconditioned & had a large deck attached to the hall. The... More

Lots of places may claim to be Oceanside but Pictou Lodge really is just steps away. That alone makes it desirable but there's much more to love about this 85-year old lodge. Many activities, from canoeing, paddle boating, putting, or volleyball, to bocci ball, horseshoes and biking are free. Most amazing of all is that despite a kitchen fire less... More

We booked an executive chalet and it was really nice particularly as it was over looking the water. Very peaceful with a small private beach. The restaurant kitchen was badly damaged in a fire 3 weeks ago and they are using a mobile kitchen with a limited menu. We tried it out and had to wait over hour and a... More
