Gregor's Hotel, Brackley, circa 1920s
 
Ewen Houston ran a boarding house from about 1891 under the name Seaside Hotel. During the early 1900s, the Gregor family took over, and in 1914 expanded to 25 rooms and renamed it Gregor's-by-the-Sea. The hotel was known for its warm hospitality and farm fresh cuisine. It was operated by the Gregor family until 1953, and for twenty years by Jack and Lorna Cameron (Moore). In 1957 the Hotel advertized a 22-room hotel and cottages, a private nine-hole golf course and driving range, ponies, dining room and close access to fishing and tennis courts. Rates were $6.50 to $10.00 per person per day. Parks Canada eventually acquired the property and in the 1970s the hotel was levelled.
