Place was great and breakfast was probably great during high season. However, as I came at the end of October the resort was getting ready to close down for the winter therefore, breakfast was only coffee/juice toast/cereal

Amazing stay in Baddeck! Everything from the staff to the (optional for purchase) to-go picnic lunches was perfect! Location is great for multi-day Cape Breton trip, though a little bit of a drive each day. Beautiful and well maintained property as well.
