Mill River Resort A home for happy guests! Mill River Resort has an expansive and storied history, and the O’Leary, PEI fixture serves as a home-away-from- home to scores of folks. By Jordan Parker Photos Courtesy of Mill River, Buffie Boily T he four-star, four-season golf and family resort rests within a mature forest along the North Cape Coastal Drive. It may be a huge evolution from where it started in 1969, but the spirit is the same. “For owner Don McDougall and his family, creating a welcoming resort that serves families from near and far is so important,” says Geoffrey Irving, president at the resort. “He is quite passionate about golf and growing the next generation of players for this sport. For this reason, our team puts a lot of time and talent into our golf instruction program and our junior programs.” The main resort has undergone extensive renovations that included the main resort lobby area, all 81 guest rooms, conference facilities, the creation of Callaghan’s Restaurant & Bar, new spa facilities, and a pro shop.
