Baddeck Bay: Lakeside Boathouse Cottage with Dock

Stayed 9 nights and had a great time. Clean, private, well equipped, close to town. Rustic cottage feel. Great views out the large windows. Plenty to do in the area. Hoping to come back next year!

A Hidden Gem on the Brad d’Or Lakes - The perfect family escape. We absolutely loved our stay at this charming rustic cottage!! It’s the ideal spot to unplug, relax & make lasting memories. The space is warm and welcoming, witha. Smart layout that easily fits multiple families without feeling crowded. Rain day ? No problem there is plenty of room for games and cosy hangouts. Check out the cupboard full of games let the smiles and laughter flow. The location is unbeatable: Just minutes from Baddeck, yet surrounded by trees and right in the lake, it feels like your own private retreat. The yard is gorgeous, the swimming & boating was amazing, and honestly … none of us wanted to leave. Highly recommend for anyone looking to recharge and reconnect!

Nicely located rustic house.

When I imagine a cottage in my mind, this is the kind of place I think of - simple construction, exposed framing well-built but rustic. It is magical! There is so much history in the walls of this converted boat house right on the shore of Bras d'Or Lake. Thoughtfully laid out, it provided much privacy for all of us as well as lake views from each bedroom (with the exception of the 2 bunk rooms.) The beds were all quite comfortable. Built in window seats throughout the cottage were perfect for curling up with a book or for sitting with coffee while contemplating the lake.I particularly appreciated the original artwork done by various family members over the years. The kitchen was adequately supplied with what we needed to prepare meals. And it was an easy and quick drive along the lakeshore to the town of Baddeck where we shopped for groceries and found several good restaurants and cafés.A private dock, lots of Adirondack chairs, a hammock, and a lovely deck with picnic table and grill all made being outside lovely. Swimming was so refreshing! I hope to return to this amazing spot!

Have to confess we missed the tv Found fireplace useful-very chilly in am Few repairs needed-some that had been done were a bit shoddy Overall a great cabin

We thoroughly enjoy our stay at the cottage. Jan is the perfect hostess. She was always available to answer any questions and offer additional details about the cottage and the area. The cottage is in a perfect, private location. It is large and offers tons of comfortable open communal living and private sleeping areas with super comfy beds. My grandchildren, 8 and 10 years old, loved it. Although, the kitchen isn’t large it was equiped with everything you could possibly need. We were very pleased with our choice.

Our visit was very good. The directions and directions for entering were spot on (except the wasps and horse flies which you have no control over) i know it has probably been mentioned about maybe installing heat pumps for more comfort during the hot days of summer. other than that we had beautiful weather, good food and good friends to spend time with, could not have asked for much more Thanks from my family and I for the experience.. Have a great day Brian Leon

Perfect Cape Breton cottage experience.

The property is amazing, communication was easy, house was clean. Cannot wait to come back.

Large cottage perfect for families. Rustic but very comfortable and clean. My boys loved exploring the rooms and playing with the board games. The views of the water were stunning. The owner was great at communicating and always a text away. Our only issue was backing our 21 foot boat into the driveway. Otherwise it was a wonderful vacation! Perfect for large families!
