Did I mention the awful road from Parrsboro? In fairness, the camp is well maintained and would be a great set for a movie about campgrounds, in the 1950s…I mean, pit toilets in a 21st century campground?

Large seasonal section with a nightly rental area.
Site 2 is in a well protected field, very large. Water and 15A electric. Very quiet. We did not use the facilities.
Easy beach access and wonderful views. Close to Parrsboro along a 5km bumpy road.
Cash or debit only.

Nice campground. Very busy with lots of nice folks. Our site was an unobstructed view of the Bay. Prefect view of the tidal change with access to the beach 20 meters away. Campsite nearly level.

Nice campground. Very busy with lots of nice folks. Our site was an unobstructed view of the Bay. Prefect view of the tidal change with access to the beach 20 meters away. Campsite nearly level. Electric/Water. Dump station near exit. Fire ring and table. Didn't use any available amenities. Almost zero light pollution, so the Milky Way is visible. Very quiet.
They accept Canadian CASH only. There's an ATM at the Irving station in Parrsboro. Other than that, check in was easy.
The road from Parrsboro was very rough. Go slow.

Water and 30 amp electrical and (now) have pump out service I understand (haaa - great idea).
This is a rustic / town run CG, firewood available,
To find it, drive into town (Parrsboro) go past the Irvine Gas station - turn LEFT at the war memorial and follow the road for about a mile. CG is well marked on the RIGHT - you are pretty much right on the water.
Had the good luck to arrive on July 4th 2014 - with Hurricane Arthur (force 1 at this time), blew down a bunch of trees / power out for days - YET it was still great. IF they would get a true sewer service this would be a place to spend a couple weeks - explore the rest of NS, PEI from here.
There's a lounge / recreation center WIFI works best there. Ice cream and other junk food available there. Everything else you might need is in town at the local CO-OP as well as NS liquor outlet.
I have seen huge motorhomes (with on board i.e.: in the tail-house-garage smart cars to truck campers and separate area for tents) so I think they can accommodate everyone.
ROGERS (CDN) works +/- better reception in town, As well SHAW DIRECT TV (Satellite) is not supposed to work - but it does.
