The Cabot brand continues to expand, with the announced addition of its third resort: Cabot Revelstoke in British Columbia.
A developer and operator of master-planned resort communities, Cabot was founded in Canada, as the highly-acclaimed Cabot Cape Breton resort in Nova Scotia boasts two golf courses (Links and Cliffs) that are ranked among the Top 100 in the world. With visions of becoming a global brand like the Four Seasons, Cabot is additionally developing another resort in Saint Lucia that features a Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw-designed course, with a full opening in the Caribbean set for 2022.
Now, Cabot is expanding its reach further west.
Cabot has finalized plans to build a 150-room lodge, a spa, fewer than 50 luxury residences and a championship 18-hole golf course on a 200-acre property that’s part of Revelstoke Mountain Resort’s land set amid the Monashee and Selkirk mountain ranges. The alpine region is known as the “heli-skiing capital of the world,” home to North America’s greatest vertical drop at 5,620 feet in Revelstoke National Park and an average of 40 to 60 feet of powdery snow every year. While the Lodge at Cabot Revelstoke will be nestled at the base of Mount Mackenzie, just steps away from a gondola, it will also sit along the first tee of a course set to be built by golf architect Rod Whitman, a native of Alberta, Canada, who designed Cabot’s first course: Cabot Links in Nova Scotia.
Golf is at the core of the Cabot brand and its first mountain course will be known as Cabot Pacific. Located in Central British Columbia, two hours north of Kelowna International Airport, the planned par-71 layout will be routed across rolling land high above the Columbia River valley that has stunning views of the snow-capped mountains in every direction.
While clearing for the resort just began in October, holes will play among and around cliffs, creeks and large rocky outcroppings set against the stunning mountain vistas. Design plans show several holes that partially share fairways with others routed in the other direction, most notably the 13th, the second of back-to-back par 5 holes on the back nine.
