We are pleased with the facility and love our site. If the facility were full it would be really crowded with rigs very close together. It is well maintained. They do not have trash pick up at your site. With our slide and awning both out we are encroaching on the next sites, however they were not occupied when we arrived. The facility is somewhat expensive for the offering with the exception of the water front sites; the view is great. Only 4 of the 17 waterfront sites are occupied when we arrived. The second day a MH parked next to us, there is about three feet between the slides. The laundry room is small, just two machines, dryers take forever to dry, but clean. There are fees attached to the extras such as showers and WI-FI. The WI-FI works well. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Greedy money grab. Sites are extremely overpriced and extremely small.- awnings would touch the RV next to you. The only campground in NS that charges an additional $1.00/ night recycling fee- another fee added to the already overpriced fee. If you arrive earlier than the 1pm check in time they will charge you $3.00/ hr untill 1pm is reached. The campground is on an open field, the so called oversized sites - for bus RVs- will cost $100/ night- this would be considered a normal sized site at most campgrounds. Most campgrounds charge around $29 to $31 for this type of site. For kids, they charge $9.00/ hr for playing pool. Basically a nickel and dime you to death campground. They have an unwritten no refund policy- If you have paid for a week and you have decided to move on to a different location after a few days- They will not refund you the remaining days- regardless of any reason. There is a $7.00 reservation fee that is not mentioned when reserving over the phone- and you are actually talking to the campground owner! If you cancel the reservation- within 48 hrs- you will lose one nights camping fees- (understandable) but they will also charge you for the length of stay you were reserved for regardless- no exceptions- This is criminal. There are many nicer campgrounds in this location and higly recommend to anyone not to stay here. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The daily rate we paid reflects an ocean front site with an unrestricted view. Sites are grassy and well manicured. We found the 30 amp power somewhat marginal and the water pressure on the low side. Our site was 27' wide. Park would feel somewhat crowded if full. There is not too much to do around here other than the quaint village of Annapolis Royal. Digby is 30 miles away. The pool and facilities are clean and orderly. WiFi was good at our site. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
One of the very best campgrounds with exceptional views. No 50 amp and weak 30 amp was a major drawback for us. Had to run the generator just to use the cooktop. Excellent sites available, but pricey. Great tent facilities as well. Very good management and facility was exceptionally well kept. Get good 50 amp power and this place would merit a 10. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The new owners have made many changes that have greatly improved the park. (We last stayed here seven years ago). Unfortunately some of them are irritating. They have a fee for most everything; $7.50 for making a reservation, $.25 for six minutes worth of water in the shower. Our site was huge and that is one of the reasons for the high price. View was incredible and the park was spotlessly clean. This was a great base for seeing the Southern part of Nova Scotia. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice campground. We opted for an ocean front site overlooking the Bay of Fundy. Gorgeous view! The folks in the office are very helpful with local tourist info and know about campgrounds in many other areas of Nova Scotia as well. As an added bonus, there's a lobster pound just outside the gates for a shore front lobster picnic! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice clean campground on the Bay of Fundy. "What a view". Sites a little short on the 1st and 2nd level. A little off the beaten path to get to, but manageable for my 35' 5th wheel. WiFi ($5 per day charge) only works around office, and Rec Hall. Lobster Boats dock right beside the campground and a great Fresh Seafood Market next door!! Short drive to Annapolis Royal, Digby, and sites in that area! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
