Grants Pond (MacKenzie Pond)

Fall
Spring
Summer

Graciously shared by the Grant family and developed by the Middle River Watershed Society, Grants Pond offers access to fishing for Brook Trout in this provincially stocked pond. Its central location within some of Cape Breton's most beautiful mountainous views makes visiting this fishing site a perfect day trip on the island for both anglers and nature lovers, alike. A short drive north along the Cabot Trail Road will take you to a favourite rest spot at Lake-O-Law Provincial Park.
