Loved the location! The staff was amazing. We liked the spot we had and enjoyed the view. The camp wasn't as clean as we like, but overall it was great.

Bonnie was exceptionally accommodating to my last minute travel plans and needs. She was a pleasure to talk to and went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable during my stay. Past family and friends have stayed there and were happy to hear I also had a great experience there as well!

Staff were very friendly and welcoming. This location is very convenient to the main highway and has a great view of the ocean. Very clean campground with great amenities �

Very friendly and helpful staff. My only concern, not really a complaint, was that their camp guidelines said quite time was start at 10 pm and 2 nights in a row the neighbors next door played loud music and lots of loud laughter until almost midnight. We assumed it would be address after the first night but it wasn’t.

This is our 2nd time staying at this campground. It's convenient to the ferry that travels to & from Newfoundland. The campsites offer a wonderful view. Everything is clean & well maintained. The customer service is excellent. The next time we travel to Newfoundland, we'll definitely stay here again. And if we are going to be traveling in Nova Scotia, we will stay here for a longer period of time.

We enjoyed our stay at this campground. We had a large pull through site. The hosts were very accommodating. Bathroom facilities were very clean. This was our second visit and we will return next year.

The hosts at the KOA were great! It was our first visit to that area of Canada, and Jason and Bonnie (KOA hosts) were great in providing directions. The KOA was located in a prime location for us. Thank you for assistance in all our needs.

Very nice cabins. The campground is surrounded by a wooded area and has a lovely pond for canoeing. Feedback - Consider providing wash clothes in the cabins. We flew into town so we couldn’t pack linens.

This was our 4th time to the KOA North Sydney. We really enjoy the location. Convenient for doing the trail, Louisbourg and Baddeck. The staff are friendly and helpful and treat us like family. Will probably return again on our next trip back to Cape Breton or on our way to Newfoundland.

We were there for a couple nights while we drove the Cabot Trail. We didn't get to experience much of the campground, but what we did use was very clean and well maintained. We would definitely stay there again were we to come back to the area.

Owners very helpful. We had some difficulty with a washing machine which they quickly helped with the fix. Our site had a loose connection but we were ble to switch the outlets. The WiFi was excellent. Close to the Cabot Trail. We missed having a fire pit at our site. Seems there was a shortage of fire pits. Bathrooms were new and clean. We would recommend this campground.

Very helpful staff and owners with a beautifully situated location very clean and well kept and a great place to explore the northern part of Cape Breton and the Cabot Trail and the Wifi was good so we could plan our days. We ended up staying an extra day

We love how friendly and helpful James and Bonnie were. The view is one of a kind and the location was perfect for our itinerary, we also love the cozy cabins for this time of year as a fall back ( when available) for cooler or wet weather.

Beautiful view very clean campground

WiFi is an issue with almost all of the KOA's we have stayed at on our 12 week trip across Canada. In this day and age everyone depends on good wifi for banking, photo uploading, family contact, work, searching visiting sites etc etc etc! Also laundry services need to be improved by adding proper lighting, newer machines that actually wash. Sites need more gravel for drainage.

Nous étions présent au KOA North Sydney pendant la tempête tropicale Dorian. Malgré les contraintes de la tempête notre sécurité et bien être était leur priorité tout au long de notre séjour. Merci beaucoup pour l'excellent travail que vous faites pour vos clients.

A fantastic place to stay to see Cape Bretton Island. Bonnie and Jason, the owners, were fantastic. We stayed during hurricane Dorian. They had us move to a safer site. There were so very caring. Place is immaculate and just a great place to stay.

Hey hello guys, we thought we’d drop you a-line and let everyone know what a great time we had with yous and how thoughtful you were with the impending Dorin on it’s way. Power no power, who cares, it was still a wonderful time. Hope to see yous in the near future, who knows maybe we will be neighbors! See you soon , Bob and Sue

We stayed here on a bike packing trip around the Cabot Trail. Nice and quiet place to set up camp with beautiful views of the water. The facilities are clean with nice hot showers. At $30 a night, it’s not a bad deal at all!
