Pretty little beach beside an RV park, not much for amenities where I was, but pretty place for a walk or run
Zander Turnbull
Was windy when we went but over all a good beach. Water was super warm and the sandbar was neat.

Stayed in a rented trailer and set up a tent. The beach is 500 feet from the tent ..... beautiful place.

RV campsite. 3/4 of the park is seasonal and it's full. The transient sites are good size for length but not in width. Your on top of each other for sure. Services are ok. Amenities not open but from what we could see this park has seen its best days years ago. Forget WIFI! It's a scam to pay $7 for 24 hrs and it disappears every 4 minutes and comes back maybe. Owner says call supplier for refund- supplier says call owner for refund. Beach is nice but frankly, there are better parks. Don't waste your time.

Nice campground. We took the 2 services and enjoyed it. So close to a nice private beach, dogs allowed on the beach as well. Close to PEI and Shediac town, will definitively be back some day. We really enjoyed it. Bathrooms amenities could be improved.
