Beautiful, quiet location with a great view of the lake. Home is spacious, well-appointed, and comfortable. Host, Jo, is very responsive. Location is great for touring Cabot Trail and other scenic Nova Scotia points and is convenient to Baddeck shopping, great dining, museums (Alexander Graham Bell museum’s excellent), and other amenities (gas/diesel, groceries). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay would definitely stay here again!

Mentioned some maintenance observations and was told these were in the listing. But not when I booked. One shower not working, no laundry. There were 2 other showers though. Otherwise the place offered many sitting areas inside and out. There were helpful tips about fire regulations.View of lake may be an overstatement. Yes, could see a bit. No direct access.Highlight was seeing a fox trot across the lawn at twilight.

Our issues with our rental isn’t so much about the property itself but with how it was maintained and the way we were treated by the home’s caretaker. This property has a beautiful view from the front porch. The house was clean, and the kitchen well equipped.The home is advertised as set up for accommodating eight visitors. Fortunately we were travelling alone.When we got to the house, the top floor was above 30C, the basement was muggy, but the controls for the air handling system were under lock. The main floor was fine but this left only 1/3 of the house comfortable.We were told 24 hours before our arrival that the master bathroom shower did not work, and the heat pump was not working and scheduled for maintenance on June 20. The host volunteered to repair the shower in the master bedroom the night of our arrival or the following day. Before we arrived we told her it was not necessary since she also told us there were 2 other working showers. This turned out to be false. The main level shower behaved more like a hose on an outside water spicket with no nozzle controlling the pressure. The only functional shower was on the lowest level and was only 30”x30”. The host did not go to the property for 4 days after we departed. She reported that we left the umbrella up and it caused it to fail in high winds.As we could not prove one way or the other we immediately paid for its replacement We try to look for the positive, and in this case it was clearly an error.
