Unserviced Campsite Rentals
Available from June - October.
We offer close to off-grid camping on the Cabot Trail within a hostel-like atmosphere. You're just minutes away from some of Cape Breton's best beaches and the best local swimming holes on the Margaree River. We have 8 campsites available, some with tent platforms and some without. All campsites in the main area of the campground are first-come-first-serve.
The campsites are located on a 100-year-old farm which is part of a new camping eco-hostel operated by Live Life In Tents. There are 8 campsites in total, a common-use shelter for cooking or hanging out. Each tent is set in an open grassy area with a private view of the Highlands. Freshwater is available at this campground and shared washroom facilities and heated outdoor showers are on site. Wifi at the camp store with a common-use workspace, wifi, and a small shop to pick up anything you've overlooked before your trip.
