Southside Whycocomagh Bay: Land Details
This 3.4 acre property in Southside Whycocomagh Bay, Inverness County features 147 feet of water frontage on the renowned Bras d'Or Lake and 350 feet of road frontage on MacInnis Island Road.
In the early 1990s, a 400-foot road was constructed on the property and power was brought into the lot. A septic tank was also put in place. There appears to have been little activity since then, but the road (now overgrown) could be easily restored.
The waters surrounding the property have been described as one of the best fishing areas on the island.
The property is centrally located just a 15-minute drive from the community of Whycocomagh and 45 minutes from all the conveniences of the town of Port Hawkesbury.

Bras d'Or Lake is a large inland sea connected to the ocean at three locations - the Great Bras d'Or Channel, Little Bras d'Or Channel and St Peters Canal. Sheltered by the surrounding hills and with very little tide (less than 1 foot) it has become world renowned as a great location for recreational boating.
The area around the lake is designated as a World Biosphere Reserve, which is an international designation of recognition from the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) for an area in the world which is deemed to demonstrate a "balanced relationship between humans and the biosphere."
