Please see parking instructions as there is no turn around in the main driveway.
Also - the island has mosquitos so please bring bug spray.
WIFI is available at the store.
Please no generators from 10pm-8am (some exceptions may apply).
To find us Google maps sometimes does not like wood Islands as our city so please use Belle River. About 50m just west of our main entrance to the farm and store, you will see a farm road that is marked with "1167 FARM" address sign. Please use that road to come in and just after the little wooded section it will open up and you will see a picnic table to your right. You can park in there. If you need help with anything, just call my cell phone 902-326-1015 Please note that there could be another camper if booked, so please park accordingly. Store is located in the small white barn next to the white house. The black building nearest the camp area is my parents house - not the store, so plesae do not walk in there. ;) lol

French River with a View
11. French River with a View
35km from Dalvay-by-the-Sea National Historic Site · 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—there is no water, electricity, or sewage—so it is best suited for self-contained camping.
With only 3 of the 14 lots sold in this development, and just one seasonal structure, this is a quiet and peaceful area. Watch fishing boats glide by, eagles soar overhead, and beautiful sunsets settle over the hills. 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, and other watercraft enthusiasts. It's just a two-minute drive to gorgeous Yankee Beach (part of the National Park), breathtaking Cape Tryon, and the iconic French River Wharf.
An incredible home base for exploring the North Shore and Cavendish, we hope you love it as much as we do!

Small, friendly and welcoming camp ground which was just perfect for us. A lovely secluded spot but very handy for visiting Cavendish and the surrounding area and attractions. Chandra and Paul were so kind and helpful in giving us ideas for the next part of our trip.
Would highly recommend.
