It’s an honour to be part of so many special moments. From lakeside walks and celebrations beneath the trees to sunsets shared along the shoreline, the Inverary has been the setting for countless beautiful memories — and we never take that for granted. 💜

Across 11 acres of gardens, green space, and waterfront views, the Inverary becomes part of every story shared here — a place to gather, reconnect and celebrate.

Here’s to another season filled with love, laughter and unforgettable memories at the Inverary. ✨

Some places become part of a family’s story forever.

The Narrows Pub was named in honour of one of Isobel MacAulay’s favourite places — the Little Narrows ferry crossing, where the water, the landscape, and the feeling of Cape Breton simplicity always felt like home.

Today, that connection lives on in a beautiful new large-scale photograph by BretonScapes Photography above the bar, paying tribute to the place that inspired its name. It’s more than artwork — it’s a reminder of the people, places, and memories woven into Inverary’s history.

Since 1971, the MacAulay family has lovingly cared for Inverary Resort, growing it from a small Inn into the gathering place it is today, while holding tightly to the stories and traditions that make it special.

Next time you’re at The Narrows, take a moment to look up, raise a glass, and appreciate the history behind the name. ⚓
