No outside lighting. Campgroung very dark other than car lights from bridge. Fire pits are on the side of the road and if you move them you will be charged 100.00 .Owners/operators very friendly and accomadating.

Hands down the staff were wonderful. We felt they cared. The campground is in a good location. We very fortunate to have lots of space as it was not busy. A suggestion, coming into the campground across from the office is a space that appears to have a mix of trailers, supplies, etc. It might be more welcoming to have a fence to his that area.

Great place to camp. Lots of places to explore nearby and very close to the highway for travelling. Cleanest bathrooms I’ve ever seen at a campground! Owners were exceptional and I will recommend to Others!

We had a wonderful stay at the KOA at North Sydney. Jay and Bonnie, the owners , were very helpful, pleasant and accommodating. We had a great site for our 5th wheel. We plan to return for another stay sometime this camping season.

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.

Great location for Cape Breton touring.

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.

The campground owners were incredible to help when my wife had a medical emergency. They helped us far above to help us. We will never forget them.

We spent two nights at a site on the upper tier. It provided us a great view and amazing sunrises. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Upon arrival, we were shown available sites and got to pick the one we preferred. The washrooms closest to the office were very clean, including the showers. There is laundry facilities but we did not use them. However, we did check them out and they looked good. There is also a building with fitness equipment. Similar to the laundry, check it out, did not use, looked good. We were traveling with our small dog. The campground is very dog friendly. There is even a small off leash area. Enjoyed our time here and are planned to spend a few more nights on the back end of our vacation.

The only "bad" thing I can say about this park is that we've never been able to spend more than one night. Great location, clean amd great service.
