Welcome to the Pictou Lodge Resort

The town of Pictou is located along the scenic Northumberland coastline and is known as the birthplace of New Scotland because it was here that the first Scottish immigrants landed in 1773. DeCoste Entertainment Centre hosts many events depicting the region's fascinating history. This charming town, rich in heritage and culture is worth visiting. Pictou boasts two marinas, walking trails, parks, an entertainment centre, museums, nearby beaches and lively festivals. Stroll down Market Warf on the waterfront, visiting local boutiques and cafes while you admire the picturesque harbor.

Situated on the picturesque shores of the Northumberland Strait, the inspiring and memorable atmosphere of Pictou Lodge Resort makes it one of Atlantic Canada’s remarkable hidden gems. Pictou Lodge received the 1999 Golden Hospitality Award from the Tourism Industry Association of Nova Scotia.
