It’s starting to look like summer around here. Unfamiliar faces line the streets and cafes and parking lots are littered with foreign plates. There are so many attractions in and around Baddeck for visitors to enjoy. We have the Alexander Graham Bell Museum where you can marvel at his pioneering spirit and enjoy hands-on activities that take you back to the 1900’s.
You can golf at Bell Bay Golf Club and enjoy a peaceful round on this 18 hole, world class course then dine at Alexander’s restaurant which comes highly recommended. Tours by land or water, take a scenic tour of the Cabot Trail with Bannockburn Tours or enjoy a sail on the Ameoba around the lake. Is culture of interest to you? Check out the Gaelic College with it’s gaelic language classes and ceilidhs( pronounced Kay-lee).
Whatever your interests are, I am sure you will find your visit to be pleasant and filled with happy memories and I hope you are left with a desire to return to our charming Village.
Wishing one and all a super day!

Jocelyn Bethune’s book, Historic Baddeck, is now available and her book signing was a big success. Congrats to Jocelyn. Seasonal businesses are beginning to show signs of life and there are a few unfamiliar faces along the streets. The High Wheeler is open as well as Wong’s..two of my favourite haunts. I see the Yellow Cello is busy and there’s a new accessories boutique in the Mini Mall run by Terri MacAulay. The condos are looking terrific and Alex and Mabel seemed to weather the winter well.
Looks like Baddeck and surrounding areas are ready for tourists and former Cape Bretoners who have planned a visit this summer. Boats will soon be bobbing in the lake and bus tours will be the everyday norm. I would like to invite everyone to visit Baddeck. It’s a charming little village and big on hospitality!
Wishing one and all a super day!

Centrally located in the beautiful Margaree Valley, Scottish Crofters Campground is a well-established campground which has been “summer home” to some folks who return year after year.
