Campground Reviews

This is an amazing campground. Bonnie is so so friendly and accommodating. We didn’t get to the campground until 10:30 pm and she allowed us to move into closer site because it was pouring rain. The view is beautiful and the showers are free. We only stayed one night passing through to Newfoundland but 100% would recommend it.

The team here are a family, and they make you feel like family too. We have stayed here three times now. They go out of their way to help with whatever you need and are always available. Its a perfect location to get to the ferry and all the historic sites in the area.

Staff very welcoming and willing to help. Sewer blocked while we were there and they offered to empty tanks into portable dump.....above and beyond

I stayed at North Sydney KOA the day before taking the NL ferry. Bonnie was very helpful in getting a reservation changed at another KOA for me and for having some flexibility in my departure time. The washroom and laundry area were both nice and clean,

Super helpful and welcoming Host! Guided to our site, 50 AMP Full hook-up pull-thru for our 43 ft Motorhome with a towed vehicle. The only drawback was that the campground needs some "sprucing up." Thank you for an enjoyable stay

Needs attention. Lots of fulltimers

Reception and staff were fantastic. Location is great for access to the Cabot, Sydney ferry and Sydney. The park and facilities, although clean are somewhat tired. However the effort and helpfulness of staff make up for any park shortcomings.

Great centrally located spot Owner Very accommodating with changes in schedule (we extended stay, and then had to shorten it back to original number of days due to hurricane arriving. Fairly well appointed, spacious cabin but visitors must bring their own linens - ok to do, but we may have not been informed of such until we arrived and had to purchase at a store approx 10 miles away

Excellent location! Close to the Cabot Trail. The owner's Jason and Bonnie we so helpful in "lending" us a spice we couldn't find in the area. Their campfire wood comes with newspaper, kindling and dry wood. The bathrooms were spotless with nice hot showers, plus the bathrooms were nice in warm. (We stayed in mid October) This was our favorite campground during our Nova Scotia tour. Great stay!!

It was a great spot with a great view. The laundry facilities were good and the showers ok. A bit pricey but I guess I have too long a memory of $30 camping spots.

The lady who checked me in was so thoughtful and nice. I enjoyed the cabin. The campground was an excellent one as well.

Staff very friendly and accommodating. View was good but a lot of puddles on the site when raining and potato bugs in the showers and showers very dated

Great communication and and very concerned that they found the right space for us (it had been raining heavily). I can't see that we'll be back in that part of the world, but if we were we would definitely stay again.

A great place to relax and camp. The hosts were terrific and went out of their way to help us when we had issues with our RV. Perfect location, scenic sites and very helpful and responsive staff.

We love this campground. It is close to the ferry terminal from Nova Scotia to Newfoundland. It is a very scenic, beautiful place. The owners are very welcoming. The customer service is excellent. We had a medical emergency after we arrived and the owners were incredibly supportive. Helping the night of the emergency and throughout our stay until we were able to travel again.

Nice quiet stay close to the Cabot Trail!

Very large, nice, clean campground. We used it as a base to see Boston & Plymouth . We drove to Hingham and took the ferry into Boston. The spots are close together and lots of kids, but quiet after 10. Staff was all very friendly and we were there over Columbus Day weekends so lots of activities happening for kids and a food truck on site one night. Kind of expensive, but very nice

I rely on koa for a standard and unfortunately this one was on the low end. Staff were very nice, but facilities unkept. Would stay only if location was important

Great place to stay for Cabot trail or for the ferry to Newfoundland.

This KOA is very tired. Needs several upgrades. Washrooms were dismal and the laundry room un-inviting. We went into North Sydney….. unfortunately the laundry mat we found wasn’t much better. We were there during Hurricane Lee. Disappointed that staff didn’t connect with campers. It was a very unsettling couple of days. Bottom line - this KOA was not very inviting, although wifi was stro
