@crccsup Whoa! Good luck, guys.

Cabot's next golf resort will be called Cabot Wilds, built in partnership with the Bragg family in Collingwood Corner, N.S., between Halifax and Moncton. It will be the first original design by Toronto-based architect Jeff Mingay and is slated to open at the end of 2027.

Cabot has announced its next destination — Cabot Wilds — in Nova Scotia, where the brand got its start with Cabot Cape Breton. The new site, through which the lovely River Philip serpentines, is on the mainland, in Collingwood Corner near the small town of Oxford, where co-developer and landowner John Bragg built an empire that began with blueberries and Oxford Frozen Foods. With completion targeted for the end of 2027, Cabot Wilds will ultimately be a 2,500-acre golf resort with dining experiences, a recreation pavilion, racquet sports facilities and residential real estate.

Tabbed with designing the course is Toronto-based architect @jeff_mingay, whose restoration/renovation work in Canada includes Victoria Golf Club, The Derrick Club, Kelowna G&CC, Cutten Fields, Rivermead and Beaconsfield. This will be Mingay’s first solo-design, and he has assembled a team that includes Devon Bjarnason, Clive Henshaw, Bryan Ohnysty, Paul Crough, Mike Rossi and more to help him bring the course to life.

Recently, our editor @jasonscoregolf and @kody_mcwilliams of Fourth Frame Films travelled to Oxford for an upcoming story on the next Cabot course and the close-knit crew that is digging it out of the dirt. The story will be told in print and video later this fall.

In this bustling era of destination golf, Nova Scotia has thrown its hat in the ring as a major competitor with another luxury resort bound for the Canadian province.

Cabot Wilds, a 2,500-acre all-season resort in the foothills of the Cobequid Mountains, will feature an 18-hole golf course designed by Jeff Mingay.

@garrett_TFE spoke with the Toronto-based architect about his first solo build and how it will distinguish itself from Cabot’s catalog of courses (1/2)

Cabot has announced a new 2,500-acre golf resort in Collingwood Corner, Nova Scotia, named Cabot Wilds.

The all-season resort destination, in Cumberland County approximately 200 miles west of Cabot’s flagship destination at @CabotCapeBreton, will feature an 18-hole golf course designed by Toronto-based architect @jeff_mingay, which traverses rugged highlands and serene, tree-lined valleys, unfolding alongside the River Philip as it weaves through the property.

Amenities include a clubhouse, dining experiences, recreation pavilion, racquet sports facilities, and residential real estate, ranging from two, four, and eight-bedroom cottages. A collection of outdoor experiences will guide guests through maple forests, wild blueberry fields, and the salmon-rich river.

Happy International Thank a Golf Course Superintendent Day! The effort our turf managers put into golf courses isn't just about playability but protecting land, managing resources responsibly, & creating space where nature can thrive too!

2nd loop in MSP came at unique @TandC1888 another @jeff_mingay case study in artful restovation. Our hospitable host casually rolled in 5 birdies & an eagle, while his pal made 8 effortless birdies. Awesome property & natural design you don’t see much stateside. Really fun spot.

Fun day @RivermeadGolf in Gatineau, Quebec.

An old school experience in every way the Charles Murray (1911), George Cumming (1913) design was artfully renovated by @jeff_mingay from 2020-2024.
Historic place in the annals of Canadian golf.
Thanks GM Matthieu Perron ⛳️

The writer, Rodney Morgan, was an integral part of our recent restorative-based work at his home club, Beaconsfield, Montreal. Rodney’s rightfully passionate and speaks the truth 👌

[Lorne Rubenstein @lornerubenstein]

An excellent piece. Adam Daifallah, the current @golfcanada president, has spoken to me about the same issue. He feels strongly about this matter, and believes, as does the writer here, that more Canadian clubs need to step up. I agree.

[SCOREGolf @SCOREGolf]

How long can a golf club celebrate its championship history without contributing to it?

That's what Rodney Morgan asks in today's Readers Write column. Because while some leading Canadian golf clubs understand the importance of hosting national and provincial amateur tournaments, many do not, or they are ignoring the call.

And that's a problem for the industry on many fronts.

@principals_nose @mplsgolfclub @jeff_mingay I was lucky enough to play there as well and loved it. Amazing golf in Minnesota

@drewharvie I’m not a fan of Sahalee, but you have a point 😁

A great aerial perspective captured by Ryo during this year's Old Scot Invitational. This view showcases the beautifully reimagined 2nd, 3rd, 8th, and 9th holes and offers a unique look at the incredible work that has transformed our historic golf course.

@AnthonyPioppi @TylerRaeDesign @somersetturf @lbt3um @KeithAngilly Interesting to see sand flashed high on the bunker faces in the 1920s.
