Since we were planning to arrive on a Friday, we had called a day ahead and made a reservation. Turns out it wasn't necessary, as there were plenty of vacant sites, and thus was a waste of the $9 reservation fee. We were originally signed up for site 51, but we were able to move to site 83, which gave us a much better view.
Date of visit: August 2014
|
|
Just up the hill from where we were is site 81, which we decided was the best in Loop B because of its view.
|
|
A little further up the hill are sites 78 (foreground) and 79. Most of the sites are quite open like these two.
|
|
Sites 77 and 75.
|
|
Sites 66 and 67 comprise a double site, great for friends or a larger family.
|
|
Site 60 is another sunny site, large and private.
|
|
There are three walk-in sites; this is 59.
|
|
Site 57 is another of the walk-in sites and is the most open of the three.
|
|
Sites 55 and 53 (left to right).
|
|
Sites 48 (foreground) and 49.
|
|
In the closed Loop A are sites 1-12. These are really nothing more than sites in a field, although there are vague roads that make them pull-through sites.
|
|
Sites 21-38. It's easy to see why this could be turned into a much nicer area.
|
|
There are a number of shaded tent sites in Loop A; this is number 27.
|
|
Site 35.
|
|
Partway between Loops A and B is this walk-in tent site number as 708. It does not appear on the campground map, so I don't know just who gets to use it.
|
|
There is a modern, clean bathhouse near the entrance to the B Loop. It offers free hot showers.
|
|
There are several vault toilets scattered through the campground.
|
|
There is a small play area where the kids can work off some steam.
|
|
For the hardy folks there are several miles of hiking trails in the park.
|
|
The most scenic is the Red Head Trail which goes about a mile and a half out along the bluff, with several observation points where one can see the bay.
|
|
It probably pays to heed the warning signs.

|
Another view of the "empty" Bay of Fundy. It wasn't long, however, before it was full again.
