My wife and I were looking for a relaxing getaway weekend and friends recommended the Pictou Lodge Resort. What a pleasant surprise. Its only two hours from Halifax on the Northumberland Strait. We booked a one bedroom Queen Suite and were pleased with the comfort and warmth of the natural cedar and pine decor. Very relaxing. The view from our... more

We are local and go each season for lunch a couple of times and for dinner at least once. We will continue to go for lunch but not dinner. We had made a 730 PM dinner reservation on a Saturday evening to celebrate our anniversary. When we arrived there was only one other couple in the dining room. The hostess... more

Pictou Lodge is like a home away from home for our family!! My family is originally from Pictou and all of our family reunions and family gatherings are always held at the lodge. We look forward to any event that can get us all together to enjoy each other and the atmosphere at the lodge. As soon as we drive... more

Chalet comfortable and well appointed. Pleasant grounds. Food very good even though the place was busy with a function and a wedding. The staff friendly and attentive without saying "Hi my name is Jules and I will be your server." Gift shop good with local products and very little kitsch. The fire in the bar was welcome for it was... more

I stayed in chalet #26 on June 27th for a wedding and it was amazing. All the small details were great, fully stocked kitchen to binoculars for birding etc. Luckily, my room was ready a little early and the staff was more than accomodating to check me in before the 3 o clock standard check in time. This was a... more

Nestled on a beach just a short ferry ride from PEI, the Pictou Lodge Resort is a restful, beautiful playground for adults, families, anyone who can spend a week or even a night in this gorgeous, quiet setting. The accommodations in rows of cabins along the ocean, were reminiscent of those at Jasper Park Lodge (but newer and in some... more

This is a magical place to stay but you must request one of the original log cabins. The restaurant is very good. Nice service. Take the trail walk through the woods-- it will remind you of days at scout camp. I have stayed twice at the lodge...once on a bus trip (Aug)with my daughter and since we enjoyed it so... more
