The lodge is situated on a beautiful piece of property overlooking Bras D'Or lake which is conveniently located within walking distance to the center of town. However, the room was tired with a musty smell. The continental breakfast is very basic but plentiful. There is an opportunity to wow guests with a bit of updating and an emphasis on customer service.

The room I stayed in was terribly outdated. I was made aware, after asking for a refund for the second night, they are in the process of updating some of the buildings. Perhaps, this should be included in the advertisement so that perspective clients would know if they choose this property what to expect. I asked the individual at the front desk for a refund, I booked another accommodation for my second night, I was told I could not receive a refund from the lodge, I had to ask Expedia for a refund, This did not make sense to me because I paid the lodge directly. Thankfully, when I called Expedia, the situation was rectified and I received my refund from the lodge. This, for me is not an establishment I will book with again.

Choose this location on the advice of a friend. Location was nice - centrally located in Baddeck. Hot breakfast served in the morning - nothing special but it was nice. Would recommend.

Well worn units. Need to upgrade the rooms. Never saw a maid the 2 days we were there. Three different colors for the bathroom facilities. Flush must have been for a midget. Beautiful property and great location. Average continental breakfast. Beautiful grounds and great location.

We found 8 spiders in the first 15 minutes. Cobwebs everywhere. The sheets were filthy. We called the front desk and they sent 2 staff to look for more spiders (no more were found) and they did change the sheets with clean sheets. The following morning told manager and response was “previous guest had no complaints” without any acknowledgement of our experience. The photos are of the main building and not reflective of the rest of the property. Wouldn’t stay again. The property has potential, but the lack of cleanliness and lack of apology or really any attempt at customer service was concerning. The colleagues who came to the room to search for additional spiders, and change the sheets, were friendly enough, but the manager who checked us in and out lacked warmth or concern.
