An absolutely beautiful spot! We loved the privacy of the site, ocean view, and everything is well set up for a relaxing stay. Jeffery did a great job creating this site.

Such a great place to stay. Jeffery and Tracey really thought of everything. We made the best meals in the outdoor kitchen, took in the full panoramic view from the deck and even got to take a shower! This place is perfect for someone who wants to have time away from the hustle and bustle but also have a few luxuries (The best one being the bathroom haha).
Such a nice family too and you can tell they had fun building everything and are excited to add even more. Thanks for everything!

Been doing camping for almost 10 years and sleep by the sea campsite by far one of the best campsite I've ever been. If there is 5star hotel, there is a 5 star campsite as well and sleep by the sea campsite is one of them. Jeffrey and his whole family is very welcoming and thorough in explaining all the amenities in the campsite.
I strongly recommend this place 💯

This is the perfect private camping spot. After a few weeks of exploring Nova Scotia, this was by far our favourite place to stay. The site sits right on the ocean, offering a breathtaking view from sunrise to sunset.
Jeffrey has thoughtfully set up everything you might need: a bathroom with a flush toilet, an outdoor shower with hot water, a cozy fire pit, and even a staircase leading right down to the water (see photos!).
The campground is well-located, close to several beaches. Clam Harbour Beach, just a short drive away, is great for beginner surfers — and if you want a lesson, reach out to Adam from Hurricane Surf Co., the best surfer around. For food and local flavour, Uprooted Café and Market is only about 25 minutes away. They serve excellent coffee and bites, and you can pick up fresh local vegetables, fruits, seafood, and meats.
Jeffrey himself is a wonderful host — welcoming and attentive. We loved the place so much, we dedicated an entire day to simply relaxing: reading, watching the waves, and soaking in the peaceful atmosphere. At night, the starry sky is spectacular.
The spot is remote and very quiet, yet still connected — both Wi-Fi and cell service work just fine. It’s the perfect balance of comfort, nature, and tranquillity.

Our idea of perfect! We parked on a grassy area overlooking the water with gorgeous unobstructed views of the islands. The whole family greeted us, even though we arrived late. Jeffrey took time to show us the outdoor living area: sink, stovetop, bench swing, fire pit with benches and a lovely new and clean outhouse with lights, a sink, and a flushing RV toilet!!
We learned that Jeffrey used storm-felled trees for all the wood and planed the wood and built himself.
The moon was reflecting on the water magically and the breeze off the water kept the bugs to a minimum. It was so quiet and relaxing with the waves lapping gently.
There are neighbors but they are tucked away so it feels very private, but comforting thst the family home was just up the hill if we needed anything. We sat on the deck and saw millions of stars at night.
We had our two older dogs with us and they were so calm and happy there. In the morning we decided to book another night to just spend the day lazing about, reading, planning the next leg of our adventures. The longer we stayed the more we dreamed about buying a spot nearby. It's a really special place.
The parking spot is down a grassy slope from the main house and is pretty level on its own, but Jeffrey provided wood planks for us to adjust the wheel height.
The province had a fire ban in place because of the dry conditions, which was fine by us. But Jeffrey did have a great fire pit area set up with loads of chopped wood.

We were very lucky to be the first guests at this spot. Jeff and his wife have built something to be proud of. This isn't just a spot to park, they have built a 1 site campground. You have your own private deck, bathroom with flushing toilet, full outdoor kitchen with bbq and 4 burner propane stove and an incredible campfire spot (unfortunately the current NS burn ban meant we couldn't use it). We travel in a small campervan, so having access to a private bathroom and outdoor kitchen was a dream!
Their property is large and well kept, and the spot is at the edge of a cliff looking out at the Wild Islands. The campsite is a good distance from their house and offers great privacy. Safe to expect some wind coming off the water, so bring layers.
There were a couple projects still underway, like steps down to the water, and an outdoor shower that will make this spot even better than it already is.
Thanks again, we will definitely be back soon!
