Heart of Baddeck Village

Quaint property in the heart of Baddeck which was perfect for our group of seven travellers. Many shops and restaurants located within walking distance. Host was very responsive and helpful with all questions leading up to and during our trip. Would happily book again for our any future trips to the area!

This was a central location for us to explore the area. Well equipped with lots of space. We enjoyed our stay there.

The Compass House was the perfect location to anchor our Cape Breton adventure. It was spacious, immaculate and central to everything we wanted to do or explore on the island. It was also centrally located in Baddeck and we were able to walk everywhere we wanted or needed to be. Communication with the host was personable and timely. We would confidently seek out the Compass House for a future visit to Cape Breton.

Fantastic location and cottage for exploring Baddeck and Cape Breton! Anne Marie is a great host and made sure we had all information needed for our stay. Very walkable to the Alexander Graham Bell museum, lots of restaurants, shops, and the grocery store.

We are sad to be leaving, as this beautiful home in Baddeck already feels like home. The property manager(s) made us feel incredibly welcome. They were wonderfully attentive hosts—thoughtful, responsive, and full of helpful local tips that made our stay even more special.The house itself was perfect for our family of five: spacious, spotless, and very comfortable, with everything we needed to relax and settle in. The location couldn’t be better—quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk or drive to all that charming Baddeck has to offer.This was the ideal base for exploring the Cabot Trail, and one of our favourite touches was the cooler they provided. It made it so easy for us to pack drinks and picnics for our day trips—such a simple gesture, but it made a big difference.We truly loved our time here and would return in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

We enjoyed staying at this great home in the heart of Baddeck. This was the ideal location for visiting all around CBI. The beds were comfortable and all was as described, except that we were expecting bunk beds as pictured in the listing and this was not accurate. If you are planning a stay with children who are very goofy when side by side and sleep better in bunks, check first with the property owner! I would also ask that the property owner check the fans to ensure they’re in good working order and consider cotton instead of poly sheets. Thank you!

The Compass House is cozy, well stocked, and located in the heart of Baddeck close to the water. Great walking area, and close drive to historical sites. The four of us, two couples, enjoyed the house immensely and the beds were so comfortable. And it was well stocked with those things you hate to buy while on vacation like dish soap, laundry detergent, and paper towels. It’s a 10 out of 10 for sure!

Great location and great communication with owner!

The house is great and very clean. Beds, sheets and comforters very comfortable. Great location close to everything in Baddeck. Thanks!

This rental is a perfect getaway for a family to enjoy the wonderfulness of Baddeck. Very well accommodated for the 7 of us. Can’t ask for anything better.
