Highly recommended!! A very friendly RV park and centrally located if you are touring the Bonavista peninsula. Good facilities, everything you need and it all works fine. Outstanding hospitality shown to us by owner Murray and the ladies in the office! We will certainly “come again”. Fred and Jamie

This is a good spot for seasonal campers. Some of the sites look very good. They’re still making improvements to various locations on-site. Washrooms and showers were very clean but needed some touch-ups here and there. The wireless internet only works at the reception. Overall it feels a bit crowded and too close together.

Came here camping seasonally when I was a child, it was always such joy going here.
