Mersey River Lodge

Enjoy a holiday with a difference with family and friends by the Mersey River, one of the most picturesque rivers in Nova Scotia.

Observe the wildlife and nature. Take a canoe trip and discover the beauty of the Mersey River area. Allow yourself to be pampered with fantastic cuisine and friendly service. Embrace the breathtaking views of the river and forest from the dining room, bedroom and terrace.
