Perched on the high ground between the two big courses, The Nest is eleven par 3s by Rod Whitman with the best sightlines on the property—you can trace the whole coastline while you wait for the group ahead to putt out.

It's the resort's evening ritual: matches settle here, drinks travel, and the $59 green fee makes it the cheapest great view in Canadian golf.

Signature stretch
10 par 3s
The high ground

Perched on the bluff above the two big courses, The Nest plays ten par 3s across 1,258 yards of clifftop—sea stacks off one shoulder, the Gulf of St. Lawrence off the other. Walkable in an hour and floodlit on summer evenings, it is dangerous only to your dinner reservation.

Caddie notes
01A few wedges and a putter cover all eleven holes—travel light.
02The wind up top is a full club stronger than it felt down at the Lodge.
03Loop it after an early Cliffs round—11 holes fits perfectly before dinner.
04Play a skins game; the short holes and big slopes are built for chaos.
