One kilometre from Exit 7 and the beginning of the world famous Cabot Trail, The Trailsman Motel is the only motel in the Baddeck area on the shores of the beautiful Bras D'or Lake. The property is at the head of Nyanza Bay, one of the best places on Cape Breton Island to view bald eagles. The spacious grounds and gardens of the motel lead to the water's edge, where you frequently find Canadian geese with their young or a Bald eagle flying overhead. The Trailsman's 55 modern motel units offer views of the lake and grounds. Most units have a fridge, coffee maker and view of the lake. All have private bath, free Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, telephones & cable TV. Come enjoy a swim in our outdoor pool, or relax and smell the flowers in a lounge chair with a spectacular view. more...
