The food was fine - no chowder, so fish and chips. But what an astonishing place. A campground at the end of a drive over a mixture of paved and rutted dirt roads, perched on a cliff. And in summer they get 500 cars a...More

When you get to Cape North on the Cabot Trail, you will see a sign and turn for Meat Cove. Take it. The road in is an inexplicable patchwork of asphalt, gravel and dirt and it takes some negotiating the potholes when there is no...More

Nova Scotia's answer to The Road To Hana. Crazy, bad road but definitely worth the drive. We had heard about the chowder, but they were sold out, they were out of a lot of items on the already limited menu. We did enjoy the fish...More
