Nowhere is the dynamic relationship between golfer and environment more closely knit than on a true links course.

Bold. Majestic. Captivating. Inspiring.
An 18-hole invitation to take the road less travelled, with the freedom of unfamiliar terrain beneath your feet and uncommon beauty as far as the eye can see. Designed by legendary course designers Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw. And carved out of the Cape Breton coastline, from high cliffs to rolling dunes.
Golf. Redefined. Reshaped. Reimagined.
Opening July 2020, the new short course is a Par 3, 10-hole routing perched on the highest point of Cabot Cliffs, affording some of the best views on property. The Rod Whitman/Dave Axland design offers a great deal of variety and shot value and is modelled after the same style of golf as Cabot Links and Cabot Cliffs.
Throughout the year, Cabot Links offers a variety of rates, including special rates for residents of Cape Breton and Nova Scotia.
