This is a beautiful hideaway in the middle of northern Cape Breton. The owners are so welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. We arrived on ADV motorcycles looking to explore the interior and were not disappointed. The food at the restaurant was also a highlight.
This place is magic - I’ve never had such a relaxing getaway. Whether it’s hiking or fishing on the wooded trail alongside a gurgling river, sipping coffee on the cabin porch in complete solitude, or sampling some of the finest cuisine at the lodge restaurant for dinner; you will leave here with a rejuvenated soul. Great Intervale Lodge renewed my spirit, and I can see why visitors revisit this place year-after-year once they discover this lodge tucked perfected in a river gorge in the heart of Cape Breton.
We had a wonderful stay! To say it is off the beaten path is an understatement. Dirt road for a very long drive in. But once there, it was beautiful! The hosts Hermann and Ruth were awesome. The food was the best, from seafood to hamburgers a very varied menu all delicious. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. We were able to travel from here to most villages in the area easily. We are not fisher people but if we were the river is very accessible. This a wonderful place for all seasons. Highly recommend if you are up for an adventure or a quiet getaway it’s up to you!

Perfect cozy cabin spot for a fall time getaway
We had a fantastic experience, loved the old school hospitality and the location was perfect for the fall colors viewing around which we had planned our trip. Would highly recommend to all travellers
