Good central location to visit the region. Nice sized sites, easy access to the dumping station if you don’t have three services. Usage of the laundry facilities is only between 9 am and 6 pm which is inconvenient if you are out touring the area. A nice walking trail close to the campground to take in the scenery.

The most unlevel campsites in all of canada. The sites were horribly unlevel, power was not consistently 30 amp. We had to run our generator part of the time. Near town and a nice walk to the bay. The campground could be so much better with just a little work.

Stayed here one night. Good location with great views (if you are in the right spot). Short hike to some close trails with amazing views. Short walks into the town. Friendly staff and good service. Laundry and showers are good.

Tenting area is nicely taken care of but all on a down hill slope. The only 2 good sites were at the top and they were taken over by to young ladies in one tent and their car. Tent was in one site and car in other And even though Park staff came by several times nothing was said to them. 2 fellas that showed up late he'd to go into woods a d create their own space to set up their tent on level ground. Needs some landscaping done. Office staff was pleasant but I wouldn't say friendly by any means.

Staff were very welcoming and provided info about local hikes. Sites were roomy and serviced with water and electricity. 4 washing machines and 4 dryers at $3 each per load. Wifi is not strong
