Keltic Lodge Resort & Spa

Beautiful location. The rooms are lovely, we had ocean views that were amazing. We had dinner at the restaurant, shared the seafood special that included half a lobster, over a dozen mussels, scallops, and angel hair pasta in a rose sauce. Delicious!

We were excited to stay at the Keltic Lodge as part of our journey on the Cabot Trail - it was the most expensive of our four nights around the area, but we ended up disappointed. The room was nice, and very clean, but outfitted somewhat oddly - a big room with a small tv quite far from the bed, and no table to sit and write or eat at, although there was plenty of space. We found the staff, that we had dealings with, to be rude and unhelpful. My husband paid to golf at the famed course and said it was in terrible condition. And although we didn't plan on using it we were told by other guests that the pool was closed - without a heads up prior to check in.

Location and physical beauty are unsurpassed. The facility is in a poor state of repair. It's very old and tired. Service in the restaurant was the worst we experienced on our entire east coast trip. Plenty of staff on hand but no one was doing anything other than standing around talking to each other. Food was mediocre at best. Rooms are marginal and certainly not what you would reasonably expect for the price point. It's a small thing but ... plastic glasses in the bathrooms ... really? The grounds were overrun with weeds and the landscaping not kept up. Not worth stopping here as its way too expensive for such a run-down place that is so poorly operated.
