5-Minute Walk To The Ocean

27km from Chance Cove Provincial Park · 1 site · RV · Trepassey, NL

We're a family of three residing in St. John's Newfoundland. I am a coastal researcher and hiking guide. This is a little bit of property we purchased a few years ago that we intend to be building on this coming year. On maps it is 18 Molly's Lane on Google Maps but you will need the pictures below to find it's actual location. The lane is actually Butlers Lane, but also Tobin's in some map apps. It is the last road turning left heading towards the ocean, so not hard to miss. There is an old road onto the property that guests can park their vans/rv/vehicles. Five minute walk from the water in one direction and town maintained trail into the barrens in another direction. Folks are friendly and of Irish decent. We ask that you not walk around the property as their is come cow parsnip, from July to August. However, the parking area will be kept clear. No fires and no waste to be left on the property. Dogs on leash permitted, but again beware of the cow parsnip.
