Cabot Wilds: A New Luxury Golf and Living Destination in Nova Scotia

On September 15, 2026, Cabot, a renowned developer specializing in luxury golf resorts and residential communities, announced the creation of Cabot Wilds, a stunning new destination set to open in late 2027. This expansive 2,500-acre resort will be located in the scenic rolling hills of Cumberland County, Nova Scotia, and is developed in collaboration with the visionary Bragg family.

A Unique Partnership

The development of Cabot Wilds is rooted in a partnership with John Bragg, a prominent Canadian entrepreneur, and his family. The Bragg family is recognized for their achievements through Oxford Frozen Foods, the world’s largest wild blueberry farm. Together, Cabot and the Bragg family share a commitment to innovation, sustainability, and enhancing community well-being, ensuring that Cabot Wilds will represent their shared values.

Ben Cowan-Dewar, CEO and co-founder of Cabot, expressed excitement about this collaboration: "We are honored to work with John Bragg and his family to bring Cabot Wilds to life and showcase this beautiful part of Nova Scotia. John is one of Canada’s greatest entrepreneurs, and his mentorship has been invaluable to me and our company."

Exquisite Golfing Experience

Nestled in the peaceful foothills of the Cobequid Mountains, Cabot Wilds will be situated in the charming community of Collingwood Corner, near the area known as the "wild blueberry capital of Canada." The resort will celebrate the breathtaking natural landscapes of Nova Scotia, featuring a world-class golf course designed by Jeff Mingay, who has carved a niche in the golf architecture scene with his acclaimed work across North America.

The golf course will consist of 18 holes that meander through rugged uplands, tranquil valleys, and along the scenic banks of the River Philip. Golfers will enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, making every round a visually stunning experience. Cabot Wilds is proud to be part of Audubon International's comprehensive "Platinum Signature Sanctuary" program, ensuring that environmental sustainability is at the project's core.

Premium Residential Offerings

For those looking to make Cabot Wilds their permanent retreat, the resort will feature a limited selection of premium real estate options. Spacious cottages ranging from two to eight bedrooms will offer generous interiors, complete with kitchens and dining areas that foster a sense of community and togetherness.

Additionally, residents will be able to purchase land plots with views overlooking the stunning golf course or the nearby river, enhancing the allure of country living.

A Hub of Amenities

The clubhouse at Cabot Wilds is designed to combine classic aesthetic with the comfort of country living. It will house indoor and outdoor dining spaces, a lounge, private dining rooms, and a pro shop, all aimed at providing an inviting atmosphere. Visitors will also be treated to local culinary delights, featuring fresh seafood and seasonal, locally sourced ingredients.

Wellness facilities, including a spa and relaxation areas, will offer rejuvenating treatments, thermal therapies, and spaces for mindfulness, ensuring a holistic approach to well-being.

Year-Round Experiences

Collingwood Corner, known for its rural charm and natural beauty, will host a variety of year-round activities, with convenient access to the neighboring town of Oxford and major airports in Moncton and Halifax. The River Philip is perfect for salmon fishing, while the surrounding area boasts trails suitable for hiking and cycling, along with blueberry picking. Autumn will showcase vibrant foliage in the maple forests, and winter will allow for skiing and other winter sports.
