On land once known as “The Golden Grove,” the Shed is nestled in the middle of 1,000 acres in the Margaree Forks area of Cape Breton. With landscape ranging from intervale farmland along nearly 4.5km of frontage on the famous Margaree River, to mountain ranges with hardwood highland forests, this rare property is the perfect place to get away and enjoy the natural beauty of the outdoors.
Designed by renowned Canadian architects Brian Mackay-Lyons and Talbot Sweetapple, the Shed is the ideal basecamp for all that Cape Breton has to offer. This modern retreat is a one-of-a-kind option for small groups looking for a place to stay or host exclusive events.
The Shed’s proximity to the top-ranked Cabot Cape Breton golf courses (Cabot Cliffs and Cabot Links), Cape Breton Highlands National Park, and the famed Cabot Trail is one of its many desirable features. The surrounding communities offer numerous amenities that will deliver memorable experiences such as world-class golf, fly fishing on the Margaree River, four-season outdoor adventures (e.g., snowmobiling, rafting, hiking), stunning beaches, unique dining options, and more.
The property itself has a variety of terrain for outdoor activities and exploring, and a beautiful dark sky mountainside that’s perfect for stargazing.
