It felt like the primary purpose of this site was a water park that also had camping. There were limited trees, so there's a good chance you'll be parked in the sun for your stay. The washrooms were fine, but again, felt like they supported the water park....high traffic, and no locks at the shower stations. The location is on a beautiful lake, so that's a plus! There is ride share available (uride) that will take you into the city if you want a night exploring Fredericton. The staff were friendly.

We loved it here! Enough room for a big rig and spacious sites. Try to get a back in site overlooking the river! Water park onsite and great for families. Office staff very friendly and helpful. Beautiful sunsets!

Great area close to water and wonderful bike/walking path all the way to a small town. With a very nice swimming pool, great and safe place for family to stay

Right out of the gate the staff went above and beyond. We had booked on-line and I noted that we had a deaf kiddo. I mention this at RV parks and hotels for safety. At check-in the young lady informed me that they had been practicing sign language all day so that they could properly ask my teen what color golf ball they would like, should they decide to play mini-golf. This mom was blown away. NEVER have random strangers gone so far out of their way to make my kid feel included! While we were setting up, the same young lady drives down to give us pamphlets and a town map. The staff is a 15 out of 10. Now for the campground:-) We had a nice pull through and the site was very clean. The water park was only $10 per day for campers, and included mini golf. The water park had copious amounts of lounge chairs, and a nice snack bar for ice creams, sodas, burgers, hot dogs and fries. We stayed for 3 nights and one day was just the water park.

A very nice campsite, located right on the river. What can you expect here? Very friendly staff, clean restrooms, and well-maintained infrastructure. If you're traveling with children, this is the place to be, as there's a great slide and pool, mini golf, and more. Definitely a place I can recommend!
