26km from Summerside · 1 site · Tent, RV
An open, picturesque 3 acre lot with riverfront beach access overlooking the iconic painted wharfs of the French River area. This lot is unserviced - no water, electricity or sewage - so best for self-contained camping. With only 3 lots of 14 sold in this development, and only one seasonal structure, this is a quiet area. Watch the fishing boats go by, eagles fly overhead, beautiful sunsets over the hills or take a walk down to the riverside beach to swim, fish (we’ve caught many bass here!) or explore. This property is a dream for paddle boarders, kayakers or other watercraft. A two minute drive to gorgeous Yankee Beach (part of the National Park), breathtaking Cape Tryon or iconic French River wharf. An incredible home-base for North Shore/Cavendish fun.
