Camper reviews for Rathtrevor Beach Provincial Park
so nice
Loved this campground, it was great, best one I have stayed at on the island, and warmer than French Beach :)
Love it
We love it so much that I don't want to say too much, too many people already.
Always perfect except when it's cloudy.
I live this park and have for well over 40 years. It's beautiful, interesting, and have plenty of opportunities for adventure both on land and in water. The gigantic beach at low tide makes for great swimming and playing in the sand. Only downside is that on cooler days there's not enough sun in the campsites to keep you warm.
Epic family adventure made possible!
After the children became adults, I decided we should take one last epic camping trip as a family. We all booked off holiday time at the same, a major feat for so many adults. But there was one very major problem. Years had passed since I booked a camp sight -- and I had not realized that nowadays the desirable campgrounds are all booked up well in advance! CampNab made the entire trip possible. We got great sites in the campgrounds we wanted. I was surprised -- and pleased -- to see all of our chosen destinations come up with options for us.
