Love it here. I most especially love spots that offer creek/riverside spots that also have a pool…read more This is one of those rare spots. It's just so relaxing here. Last night a guy floated past our site in an inner tube drinking a beer, hard to beat that! We bought lobster in Lunenburg yesterday, cooked it at our site and ate it by the creek. AMAZING. The owning family is sooo friendly! Dave, you rock!!! Dog and daughter have spent their evenings playing in the creek. Today, we took our much awaited tour of Oak Island which lived up to our anticipation, just an amazing history. If you are camping and want to take the tour, I can't imagine a better place to stay. However, I would seriously just return here to camp and enjoy the area and the campground.

From the owner: We have built our business over the years on a friendly atmosphere and clean washrooms. All this…read morehelps to complete a great camping experience.

Bought two nights at the Ovens but left after one night because of the rude actions of the manager…read moreJane who was upset that we bought our firewood outside the camp at the local gas station and it was our mistake that we did not read the rules about fire and we had a fire going in the morning, her employee said nicely that he was going to get water to put it out and we apologized but five minutes after he left to get water she came speeding into our campsite yelling at us! Asking us if we had a bucket to put it out?! We explained that her employee was bringing water she proceeded to yell about fire wood and then speeded off. We packed up and left. I believe that there are better ways to talk to people without hostility especially in front of children!

The Ovens Natural Park is located about 20 minutes from Lunenburg or 1.5 hours from Halifax, Nova…read moreScotia. "The Ovens" are a series of Sea Caves that branch off the Atlantic Ocean carving some beautiful holes into the cliffs of the land. Located on private property, this location is open from May till October. There is a mandatory admission ($10 for adults) to see this place. At very least, you get to hike the 1.5 kms long trail along the ocean to see the caves. If you are wanting to stay longer, they have a campground (tent, camper and cabin) should you wish to stay in the area. They do have size restrictions, so you'll have to leave you larger trailers or RV's at home. We spend 1-2 hours roaming the trails and taking our time reading the information provided about the history of the property and the area's gold rush past. We created a YouTube video of your experience as well which will really help you get a sense of the location. This is a beautiful area and well worth the trip. Perhaps a little on the expensive side, however, being able to see the caves was really quite amazing. If you come, be prepared for the temperature difference compared to inland - it's a bit cooler being on the ocean (even in the summer). For additional information on this location, plus direct access to the YouTube video, please check out our travel guide of this location on our website at www.joshthetravelguy.ca

Literally the worst KOA I have ever experienced. I paid for a 50 amp site. Once I arrived and got…read moresituated in my "50" amp site, I realized it was only 30 amp. When I returned to the office to let them know they informed me that they don't even have any 50 amp sites and clearly I had made a mistake. When I showed them my reservation, they did nothing but give me a snotty attitude. Now, even the 30 amp power is not working at my site. Oh, and this "Halifax" koa is nowhere near Halifax. It's a 30 minute drive. I'm currently still waiting for any power. Update: The manager did give me a full refund. And we moved to Neptune Campground which is lovely:)

Management is VERY unprofessional and in your business for entire stay. Zero privacy and had to finally engage in management's level of futility to argue our way out only to be insulted and called names for having a family bbq as a memorial there, which we told them we were doing bf arriving. The weekend was in our mother's memory and supposed to be uplifting only to leave feeling drained for having to deal with the owner's lack of professionalism and immaturity, to say the least. Just don't waste your time here. Period.
