The best camping in Newfoundland and Labrador with a private bathroom

Name: Newfoundland and Labrador
Address: Newfoundland and Labrador
Rating: 4.375

With the capital city of Saint John’s and the two most popular national parks in the province, the island of Newfoundland is the province’s primary hub, while the larger, mainland Labrador shares a border with Quebec and offers more remote experiences. Main draws for outdoor adventurers include the fjords prime for kayaking and fishing village exploration; Gros Morne National Park’s mountainous landscape; and the some 10,000 whales that hang out among the icebergs on the east coast of Newfoundland in summer. The Newfoundland norm is camping in dense forests inhabited by moose and bears.

The most populated part of the province, this is where you’ll find the waterfront city of Saint John’s in addition to scenic seaside villages like Holyrood, Cupids, and Heart’s Desire—all ideal for road tripping among the craggy landscapes. You’ll find plenty of beachfront campgrounds, cabins, and RV camping with hookups along the peninsula, plus some interior sites near the protected Avalon Wilderness Reserve.

Following the island’s 300-kilometre East Coast Trail leads travelers along a portion of the waterway known as Iceberg Alley, named for the massive icebergs that make their way along the coast in early summer. Pitch a tent in Terra Nova National Park or at the dog-friendly campgrounds in Lockston Path Provincial Park, or head to the villages of Bonavista and Twillingate for whale-watching and puffin-viewing excursions along the way.

The town of Grand Falls-Windsor acts as a gateway to river rafting and fishing experiences in northern Newfoundland, where there are plenty of options for campers in its wilderness areas. Campsites with the most amenities can be found around Grand Falls-Windsor, but it’s also possible to venture out to Fogo and the Change Islands by ferry for artsy stays and an RV park.

This area is defined by Gros Morne National Park, which pairs fjords with mountains and extends into Newfoundland’s northern peninsula. The park offers nearly 250 campgrounds with varying amenities and accessibility options, while coastal gateway towns with outdoor stay options include Norris Point, Rocky Harbour, Trout River, and Cow Head.

Although sparsely populated, this remote part of the province offers scenic driving that takes you to gorgeous spots—try southern Pinware River Provincial Park for tent camping or the waterfront Saint Lewis and Battle Harbour for Iceberg Alley views. The northerly Torngat Mountains National Park is worth the journey there for its glacier-carved mountains, backcountry camping, and Inuit cultural experiences, while Akami-Uapishkᵁ-KakKasuak-Mealy Mountains National Park Reserve is pristine wilderness with no road access.

Food Culture Place Camper Campsite

Mobile, NL · 1 site

Welcome to our treasured little family camper. Our “Chaga Cafe” was originally set up by the kids as a little lemonade stand to serve to hikers passing through. As time went on we heard over and over from hikers that there were a lot of needs, “simple accommodations outside of spending a lot of money” was heard a lot. So here we are. The camper has been set up to help serve a need, a clean place to tuck into for the night, with some necessities, not a luxury accommodation. This camper is also a family place for us so please take care of it, while it’s simple, it means the world to us. The camper has power, water for drinking and dish washing is all topped up before your stay. If more is required simply ask via the Hipcamp app and more will be delivered. The propane and running water have been disconnected. A butane hot plate for cooking is provided and lots of water. The accommodation sits within Food Culture Place property with The East Coast Trail quite literally at your doorstep. Guests can continue on to the next leg of the trail by walking past the accommodation, making this an ideal stop along the route. Heading South from the trail you will make your way to Tinkers Point a 30 min walk along the trail, the next community South is Tors Cove. This property at large is also my home, the rental is separate and you do not need to walk into the property as the rental is just off the side road. We ask that you respect this property as a place of peace and quiet. While of course you can come and go at any hour we ask for quiet hours from 10pm- 6am. While you can not see any homes from the camper there are several elderly people in the neighbourhood. We are located next to a corner store (5min walk for all essentials up on the main road Route 10) and Fork restaurant, one of the best places to eat on the island! A short drive south is Forager restaurant and Cliffs Edge and excellent stop for a proper espresso coffee and great cafe! The Camper Does have electricity, however there is no heat and so we only rent it from June to September. You can charge your devices with the plugs located throughout. The original fridge and stove in the camper does not work, this is an old camper and we would not trust the propane so the camper no longer has a tank attached. There is a small fridge for your use and a butane, camping stove there for your use. Butane Included. Checking in / Checking out Check in is at 3pm and check out at 11am - this may be able to be changed upon request. Upon arrival, you will find the camper unlocked with a key inside, should you wish to lock it during your stay Towels/Cloths Towels, dish cloths, face cloths, mattress cover and pillow covers are replaced after every guest of course. You require your own sleeping bag, there are many extra blankets in the camper. They are all placed in bags so that you know they are clean. Water You can rinse dishes with the water near the sink in the container labeled. There is more fresh water provided outside in the blue container for rinsing the dishes and washing up. There are several large water containers under the table or outside. Dish soap provided. There is ample fresh water provided for drinking as well, it is clearly labeled and extra refills in the fridge. Hot water can be boiled with the kettle provided for dishes. Toilet Use Please do not place toilet paper or anything else down the toilet—only human waste. All tissue and other waste should be placed in the wastepaper bucket beside the toilet. There are bags provided under the main sink and when you change the garbage you can place it in the large plastic tub in the driveway To use the portable camping toilet: We recommend leaving the toilet trap open while in use to prevent an airlock. This is controlled by a lever in front of the toilet. You can close it when not in use. When your finished there is a rinse knob, near the back left corner, pull it straight up and then push it straight down and clean water will rinse the basin. There is a spray bottle that you can use to clean the toilet should it be left in a mess. This is your responsibility to do so before you leave. Drinking Water You will find a large drinking water cooler jug with a rechargeable top, the charger is by the small bathroom sink. Slippers There are slippers under the table for your comfort. Feel free to place your boots in the box as well Keeping your food cold There is a small fridge provided Cooking The original propane stove in the camper is not hooked up, there is a butane stove provided for you and a small gas camp stove.

East Coast Newfoundland Cottage & Cabins

NL · 1 site

We sit on a rock, as does all of Newfoundland, overlooking a creek fed by Bauline Pond, which flows into the rocky beach next to our property. We are sheltered by a rocky hillside, under which we walk to the beach just 30 feet away. We have views of Bauline Harbour, an active working harbour with two commercial fishing boats, one island/whale tour boat, and many local fishing boats when the fishery is open. We are at the cultural center of Bauline, a hamlet of fifteen houses, a wharf, a pond, and access to the East Coast Trail. Just beyond Bauline Pond, there is an excellent restaurant, FORAGER, and a hotel, Cliff’s Edge Retreat. We are at the heart of the Irish Loop, or the Southern Shore, and very conveniently located for travel: North to St. John’s (50 minutes), south to Trepassey (1:15), west to Dildo (1:15), and east to Ireland (about 5 hours).

The site was small and quiet, the kids had a lot of fun running around. They enjoyed the oversized plastic dart board that was set up behind one of the RVs.
