Beautiful seaside RV campground with clear water and nice amenities.

Couldn’t actually go on in due to it being private property so can’t properly rate it but the employee working helped me and my family find another great place to go nearby. The location of this is place is also really nice just beside the water.

After 8 hours driving and 7 hours ferry, I was exhausted when I saw the sign of Ben Eoin Beach RV & Campground. The owner told me it is not open for now. She saw my tired face and allowed me to stay overnight for free. There were no more words that could express my thanks. Waljing along the water edge, the sinery impressed me. All the blesses to the coming opening on Friday, and I hope everyone enjoys the quiet place.

First impression should have been enough to turn around and leave. The worker at the office was VERY unfriendly and rude. Trailers are wayyyy to close and lots are too small! Showers were nothing short of a rip off. Stayed one night and that was more than enough for me. Was ready to head off Cape Breton Island and camp somewhere else but happened to chat with someone that told me about a campground called Mira Water Park and we went there instead. So glad we went there instead of heading off island. It was an awesome campground with the Cape Breton hospitality people expect when visiting Cape Breton.

This is a beautiful campground that I grew up going to with my grandparents as a child. I revisited a couple summers ago and as you see it did not disappoint. Beautiful views and great staff we had a great week, the dog still talks about it! I notice the negative reviews on here are from people that actually did not stay here? How is that allowed?
