This remote venue in the hinterlands of Nova Scotia had caught my eye: Trout Point Lodge — https://www.troutpoint.com

Getting there is not straight forward but looks to be worth the effort.

From their website:
”Trout Point Lodge offers luxury adventure travel, guided stargazing and other ecotourism vacations from its secluded location in the heart of the Tobeatic Wilderness in southwestern Nova Scotia, Canada, 40 mins from Yarmouth (daily ferry service from Bar Harbor, Maine), 1.5 hours from Digby (2 daily ferry services from Saint John, New Brunswick) and 3 hours from cosmopolitan Halifax. A quintessential wilderness lodge & nature retreat, this unsurpassed eco destination lets you enjoy the Canadian backwoods easily accessible on Canada's east coast. Rated five stars by Canada Select, most hotel room and suite boasts stunning river views. Recommended for stays of at least two nights, a Trout Point vacation allows you to forget the cares of the outside world, perfect for a relaxing getaway and to celebrate special occasions. An award winning wine list compliments chefs who feature fresh, local market cuisine in the renowned Trout Point dining rooms. The enchanting location & spacious Nova Scotia accommodations make for a secret hideaway that will rejuvenate and inspire!

​You will savour beautiful Nova Scotia river country at the Lodge, a unique refuge offering superb outdoor recreation, outstanding cuisine, & engaging culinary experiences in a spot so wild there is no cell phone coverage! An unparalleled place for relaxation & enjoyment of the outdoors, this 5-star resort's 100 acre wooded estate borders the remote Tobeatic Wilderness Area & the scenic waters of the scenic Tusket & Napier Rivers, yet lies an easy drive from scenic French Acadian villages, historic seafaring ports, stunning beaches, & Bay of Fundy seacoasts. The Lodge is electric vehicle friendly, with 2 charging stations, one for Tesla vehicles.
