We loved staying in Baddeck at the Silver Dart Lodge for 2 nights! The bed was very comfortable and the room had all we needed. Robes were even provided. The dining facilities were great for breakfast and dinner. We enjoyed sitting outside and enjoying the view. We were able to use the washer and dryer facilities. They even had a heated pool. This lodge and town was fantastic!

The location and parking was good but the room was nothing like shown in the pictures. Our room was dingy on the small side and smelled musty. We needed to immediately opened the door to the outside to let some fresh air in. While the sheets and towels were clean we dared not to put a foot without shoes on the carpet.
