General Description

Our location on a large beachfront property ensures guests can enjoy swimming in the clean, crystal waters of Bras d'Or, the largest and most beautiful salt-water lake in the world. Stroll down a quiet country road that hugs the shoreline where two natural marshes provide shelter to abundant birds and other wildlife. Eagles soar overhead as you relax on the large front deck overlooking the water, watching the sunset over Iona in breathtaking colors.

Babysitting and laundry services are available by advance arrangement.
