Difficult to find
Showers had little hot weather - more like warm to cool - and terrible water pressure.

Peaceful Pod!
Absolutely loved the set-up of the Pods. Ours was so cozy and inviting after a long day exploring and out in the fog. The wash house is fantastic with showers and toilets. Definitely comfortable camping :)
Undiscovered gem! Property has shared kitchen with bathrooms and free showers. BBQ with propane provided for camper use along with camping chairs, picnic table, dry firewood and kindling for a communal fire! Even the roasting sticks are supplied! I’ve already been recommending his property to others! I would certainly go back if ever I’m the province!
Pas d'eau potable dans la salle de bain et la cuisine.Ce n'est pas très grave, c'est juste qu'il n'y avait pas d'indications à savoir si on peut l'utiliser ou non pour cuire des pâtes, ni si le lieu fournissait de l'eau potable qqlpart ou non. Bref, pour moi ce fut un ennui, et comme il n'y a pas nulle part de "bureau d'accueil" sur le site, ben... personne à qui parler. Je ne savais pas s'il était sécuritaire de mettre mes lentilles cornéennes après m'être lavé les mains avec leur eau, ni si je pouvais utiliser l'eau dans le frigo (c'est un frigo commun, alors l'eau de source qu'on y trouvait appartenait peut-être à un autre campeur, pas moyen de savoir si on "vole" de l'eau ou pas!).etc. Pour le reste, le site est bien entrenu et c'est une belle option de "semi-camping" à mon avis. Bien situé à Ingonish, quoique pas dans un lieu "reculé" comme on le croirait, j'entendais le "weed eater" de la maison voisine. Mais même si c'est près de la route, il n'y a pas de trafic la nuit dans ce coin, alors c'était très tranquille le soir, ce que j'appréciais. Et la proximité de la route rend les déplacements faciles. Dommage que le joli café tout près n'ouvre qu'à 9h AM. On partait toujours trop tôt pour nos randonnées (alors on arrêtait au Bitsie Bean alors qu'un café était à 2pas!). Il ne manque que l'accès à une buanderie et une passoire pour les pâtes et je mettrais 5 étoiles. :-)
