Welcome to Cabot Wilds
Cabot, a celebrated developer and operator of luxury golf and resort destinations, has announced the arrival of
Cabot Wilds, a stunning new 2,500-acre golf resort set in the picturesque hills of
Cumberland County, Nova Scotia. Opening in late 2027, this exciting venture will combine world-class golfing with pristine natural landscapes and the charm of Canadian rural life.
A Visionary Partnership
Developed in collaboration with the iconic Canadian entrepreneur
John Bragg and his family, known for founding Oxford Frozen Foods, the largest producer of wild blueberries globally, Cabot Wilds is a testament to shared values of innovation, sustainability, and community well-being.
Ben Cowan-Dewar, CEO and co-founder of Cabot, expressed his pride in partnering with Bragg, stating, "I consider John one of the great Canadian entrepreneurs of our time. He has been an extraordinary friend and mentor, and we are excited to shape the future of the Cabot brand together."
The Location: A Natural Wonderland
Nestled in the serene foothills of the
Cobequid Mountains near the quaint community of
Collingwood Corner, this resort is a tribute to Nova Scotia's beauty, often referred to as the "wild blueberry capital of Canada." Cabot Wilds is designed for year-round enjoyment, featuring a golf course, meticulously crafted facilities, remarkable hospitality, and a deep connection to the surrounding environment. The centerpiece will be an 18-hole golf course by
Jeff Mingay, set along the winding
River Philip, surrounded by lush landscapes and breathtaking scenery.
A Commitment to Sustainability
Like all Cabot properties, Cabot Wilds will meet the rigorous standards of the
'Platinum Signature Sanctuary' program by Audubon International, emphasizing conservation and sustainability as core principles. This ensures the environment remains at the heart of the development, aligning with the Bragg family's legacy.
Real Estate Opportunities
For those wishing to make this idyllic setting their permanent residence, a limited selection of properties will be available. Options include spacious homes designed with comfort and community in mind—featuring 2, 4, or even 8-bedroom layouts, expansive kitchens, and welcoming living areas with cozy fireplaces. There will also be lots for sale, offering stunning views of the golf course, hillside, or river.
Clubhouse Amenities
The stunning clubhouse will merge classic design with the relaxed atmosphere of rural living, hosting a restaurant and bar that serves a menu inspired by the region's rich culinary heritage. Expect fresh seafood, seasonal produce, and locally sourced ingredients. Wellness facilities will also be available, featuring rejuvenating treatments, thermal therapies, and tranquil spaces dedicated to mindfulness practices—all designed to restore balance and energy.
Seasonal Activities and Experiences
Cabot Wilds is a perfect year-round destination, characterized by its countryside charm and natural beauty. The nearby town of Oxford and the international airports of Moncton and Halifax ensure convenient access. Fishermen can enjoy excellent salmon fishing in the River Philip, while outdoor enthusiasts can explore extensive hiking and biking trails or engage in seasonal activities like blueberry picking. Come autumn, the maple forests and expansive blueberry fields transform into a canvas of vibrant red hues, while winter presents opportunities for skiing and snow sports.
