The Chanterelle Inn and restaurant are perfect! The couple who own and run it have invested great care into every detail.
The exquisite dinner and breakfast meals were unexpected delights. The decor and bedrooms were lovely and relaxing. 26 acres surround the inn and create a welcome oasis right off Cabot Trail. This is a place we hope to visit again!

Chanterelle is a unique gem in a stunning place … on the Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island. Earlene and Holger work diligently to provide outstanding, attentive, and responsive service to their guests. But it’s the opportunity to partake in extraordinarily fine dining for both breakfast and dinner, that really makes the time spent at Chanterelle uniquely wonderful. Treat yourself to this wonderful indulgence, and follow everyone’s recommendation to make reservations, in advance, for your dinner(s). We loved our three night stay.

We loved our stay at the Chanterelle Inn! The hosts are great and the chef is awesome. Breakfast was included with our stay and it was delicious and a step above any breakfast we have ever had! We also made a reservation for a supper and again the meal was excellent with a very unique menu! It was a nice, peaceful place to stay. We ate our meals in screened in porch with a gorgeous view!
So relaxing and peaceful!

Charming
Charming hotel up a hill where you can see for miles. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was included and was delicious. The only negative for me was lack of an elevator to second floor rooms because I have bad knees and stairs are not my friend.

You have to remember, this is an Inn. It’s not a hotel and it’s not a B&B. Room was super clean, and the breakfasts were really tasty. Dinner was not something we took part in due to our daily schedule, but because it’s an Inn, bring a guest of the Inn doesn’t mean you get an automatic dinner reservation. Book your reservation for dinner when you book the reservation for occupancy.
I would recommend this place to all that are looking for a clean, quiet location and hospitable stay.

This is a very nice complex of a country inn and some self-catering cottages in a beautiful location on the Cabot trail.
The restaurant offerings are superb. The central area in the lodge has great charm.

Chanterelle is a well kept secret. it is fine dining at its best and the Inn has comfortable rooms or cottages for overnight accommodations. The picturesque setting and welcoming hosts make this a very special place.
