The location is beautiful right across the road from the St. Lawrence River with beautiful vistas of the Laurentians on the other side of the river. In the wee hours of the morning we could hear distant foghorn on a ship. Rooms /campsites are very well maintained with all the services we could ask for. The professional and courteous staff demonstrates a pride in service that you don't find everywhere . The facilities are very clean and well maintained.

Had an emergency with our RV and had to "limp" in to this campground, got set up and they contacted their mechanic who, while not able to correct the problem, provided advice on who to contact for towing and service, Claudewas great but Sylvan went above and beyond providing translation services to us in a stressful environment, thanks so much!

This is an amazing location. The campsite has beautiful lots. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The views along the road getting to the site are spectacular. What a treasure we found in this location The entire area has poor cell reception, no fault of the campground, it’s the area itself

Great camping. Wonderful treed sites, and fairly large. There is a fairly large seasonal section, but the short term sites are separate, and very good. Very nice sanitary blocks. About a 4 km bike ride to the route verte, but traffic is light. Great views. Peak check-in/out can clog up the entrance, so be aware of that. (Narrow entrance/no bypass)

Really enjoyed our stay here. We were put into a “van life” corral type area directly across from the ocean. Sites had absolutely no privacy but everyone was super kind, quiet, and respectful. There was an awesome little dishwashing area in the middle that was very clean and convenient. The facilities and the entire campground were impeccably clean, probably the cleanest campground I have ever been to. Showers are paid but worth it for such clean hot showers. A little disappointed that the pool was not open on a 35 degree day the week after labor day. We had our dog with us who loved running on the beach. A great stay if you are on your way through to the maritimes :)
