Bras d’Or Lakes Inn
The grounds may be small, but the inn’s location on the St. Peter’s Canal makes up for it, with a dock that provides a lovely spot for quiet contemplation (it’s also a launching place for a kayak or canoe). We also have a soft spot for the rooms: Yes, they too are lilliputian—there’s little space between the foot of the bed and the far wall—but they’re comfortable, with a subdued decor of neutral-colored bedding, quiet artwork, and one wall of rustic knotty pine which gives character. Service is quite friendly and the housekeeping can’t be faulted. Their spacious cedar log dining room ★★ was awarded the #1 Restaurant in Cape Breton 2024 by the Restaurant Association of Nova Scotia. Menu choices include fish cakes with house made chow and planked, sustainable organic Nova Scotia salmon. A la carte entrees range from C$20 to C$42.
